Declining Testosterone Levels- Is There Help for Aging Men?

Posted on by

As men age, there is a tendency to convert testosterone to estrogen. Testosterone levels decrease by approximately 1-2% annually.  Testosterone becomes less available to protect the heart and circulatory system. Other effects of reduced testosterone levels are decreased libido and weaker erections. Loss of height and energy, along with sadness and decreased resistance to infection also occur with declining testosterone levels.

Chrysin is a natural flavone found in small amounts in plants. Like many polyphenol flavones, Chrysin has powerful antioxidant effects and may lower cellular inflammation.  Chrysin also has a favorable effect on blood vessel walls easing blood flow and supporting healthy blood pressure. However, the main use for Chrysin is to support male function. It  has been shown to enhance sex drive, support performance and intensity of pleasure, support male function in many respects, and restore testosterone-related functions in older men by inhibiting its conversion to estrogen.

Pure Encapsulations’ new product Tribulus Formula, offers a combination of tribulus, chrysin, hesperetin and D-aspartic acid to support healthy testosterone balance. Order it online at HeleneKaplanHealth.com  Questions? Email: [email protected]

PolyCystic Ovarian Disease  is the most common cause of menstrual irregularity and affects 5-10% of reproductive age women.  Your doctor may have also found many cysts on your ovaries during an ultrasound.

Pure Encapsulatons’ Dim Detox can help balance hormones and detoxify carcinogenic estrogens from your body which is key to reducing the symptoms of this condition.

The key ingredient in the formula that helps stabilize hormones is a form of “broccoli sprouts.”  This is the reason it is also important to eat cruciferous vegetables.

Another essential ingredient in the formula is “milk thistle”. It  enhances detoxification by increasing glutathione. Glutathione is a powerful antioxidant created by your cells to fight destructive free radicals.

Along with these herbal suggestions, A HEALTHY DIET IS ESSENTIAL!

1) Eat low Glycemic Index (GI) carbohydrates such as vegetables ,  berries, and  beans.   It is very important for women  to completely avoid refined carbohydrates including sugar, white flour, whole-wheat flour and products made from them (i.e.- pasta, breads, desserts, soda and candy).

2) Keep your blood sugar stable by eating every three to five hours and include protein and good fats (for example some nuts/nut butter, seeds/seed butter, hard-boiled egg, hummus dip) at each meal.

3) Eat 7-10 servings a day of vegetables including 3 leafy greens every day. Your vitality will shine!
