Environmental Hormone Effects

MEN:


Low testosterone affects an astounding 1,000,000 American men!
Many men are in the dark about how hormone imbalances affect their health. Men’s hormone changes have been much less publicized and researched than women’s, but hormone
disruption is as much a part of a man’s life as it is a woman’s.
Some men are more attuned to their hormonal fluctuations than others’. Some report clear monthly changes in their energy levels, mood, work and sports performances that they attribute to their equivalent of a ‘period’ or cyclic change.
Blood levels of testosterone fluctuate dramatically at different times from 250 to 1,200 nanograms, and these changes affect a man’s performance, mood and sexuality. While a man’s hormone fluctuations are less dramatic than women’s, testosterone levels start to
decline around age 40, falling up to 10% each decade. This phenomenon called “andropause” is now recognized by almost 8 in 10 family physicians as a real condition that affects quality of life in men.
The most common symptoms of hormonal imbalance among men are: prostate pain and inflammation; lack of abdominal tone; poor urinary and sexual function.
The most common causes for hormonal imbalances among men are: a vasectomy; adrenal exhaustion due to stress; severe dieting or body building; surgery or long illness; protein , iodine, calcium, B-complex or EFA deficiencies.


WOMEN:


A healthy female system works in an incredibly beautiful, complex balance. It is an individual model of the creative universe. A woman is usually an incredible thing to be, but the intricacies of her body are delicately tuned and can become unbalanced or obstructed easily, causing pain and poor function. From child-bearing age, to premenopause, to menopause, to post-menopause, many women are affected by imbalances and fluctuations with their hormones that rattle their lives. Female hormone imbalances are involved in a myriad of health problems for women, including fibroids, endometriosis, headaches, PMS, depression, low libido and infertility.
