Why is it Important to Maintain Balanced Male Hormones?
Maintaining balanced hormone levels is essential to overall health. Unfortunately, testosterone levels decline in men as they age. Most men know that testosterone is important for sexual function, but research indicates that it is critical for so much more: maintaining cognitive function and a healthy body weight, improving insulin sensitivity and glucose metabolism, promoting heart health, and more. In addition, the ratio of testosterone to estrogen appears to be a strong indicator of mortality outcomes in men with heart disease.

Here are 5 things one should avoid to keep testosterone production optimal:
3) Phthlates:
Mainly used in plastics to make them flexible (i.e. a plasticizer), but also found in pharmaceuticals as an excipient and in cosmetic products, it has been found to suppress testosterone production.
4) Parabens:
Another ubiquitous petrochemical found as a preservative in a wide range of products, but especially cosmetics and body care productions, it has been found to disrupt testosterone levels.

What are Natural Ways to Boost Testosterone Levels?
Aside from hormone replacement therapy, there are many natural ways to support testosterone levels and healthy male function:
- Zinc. Zinc is essential for many aspects of male reproductive function, from testosterone metabolism to sperm motility.
- DHEA. As a precursor to testosterone, adequate DHEA levels are required for healthy testosterone production. DHEA levels tend to decline with age.
- Tribulus. Protodioscin, and active ingredient in Tribulus terrestris (or puncture vine), may convert to DHEA in the body. It has a reputation as an aphrodisiac, and animal studies seem to confirm its ability to boost sexual function.
- Antioxidants. Antioxidant supplements, including vitamins A and E and selenium, have been shown to boost testosterone production in men.
- Chrysin. This bioflavonoid naturally inhibits aromatase, and thus may reduce the conversion of testosterone to estrogen. Its bioavailability may be boosted by taking with piperine (black pepper extract).
- Nettle root. Lignans in nettle root may prevent SHBG from binding testosterone, which may boost free testosterone levels. Nettle root is often used to relieve benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) symptoms.
- Muira puama. Muira puama may improve sexual performance in men who have loss of libido.
- Indole-3-carbinol (I3C). I3C, found in many cruciferous vegetables, may protect the prostate from harmful estrogen metabolites.
- Pygeum. Pygeum has been used to relieve BPH symptoms in Europe since the 1960’s. Pygeum may prevent the conversion of testosterone to a metabolite that can exacerbate BPH.
- Saw palmetto. Saw palmetto is a popular supplement for prostate health. Its clinical benefits include reduced nighttime urinary urgency and less discomfort from urination symptoms.
- Other natural products such as quercetin, fish oil, maca, L-carnitine, protein, and more may help support healthy testosterone levels and male functions.

At this time a "Woman's Right to Choose" what happens to her body and the body of her unborn child is protected by our Constitution, agree or not, but what about Informed Consent when it comes to medical interventions and procedures for women, men, and the children we actually give birth to?

fight

Below is just one of some 40+ slides in the presentation above. The science demonstrates the inferiority of health across the board when it comes to vaccinated children compared with the unvaccinated. You might be astounded, you might choose to deny it, but it's there. We can keep our heads in the sand, but, unfortunately, that won't change anything or help at all... Please take the time to study this presentation.

“Unless we put medical freedom into the Constitution, the time will come
when medicine will organize into an undercover dictatorship to restrict
the art of healing to one class of Men and deny equal privileges to
others; the Constitution of the Republic should make a Special
privilege for medical freedoms as well as religious freedom.”
Benjamin Rush, MD
