Today I’m going to Reveal the real cause and the reason guys get ‘Man Boobs’ also known as (Gynecomastia)
Statistics show that this “medical condition”, is on the rise. Over the past 3 decades, gynecomastia has increased by 57% which is crazy if you think about it. So if you have ‘gyno’- regardless of how small or big- you are not alone because having gynecomastia is actually quite common these days.
About 60% of boys get it during puberty, 37% of men in their 30’s and 40’s have it and whopping 70% of men age 50 and older have it.
Now most people think the real cause is high estrogen.
Yes, estrogen is definitely a major problem…
However, the REAL cause is actually having low Testosterone and more specifically an imbalance in Hormones and Estrogen.
Thus, the ‘ratio’ is more favour of Estrogens than Testosterone.
For example, you can have low Estrogen and still get Gynecomastia. If your Testosterone is also low. So ideally you want High Testosterone and Low Estrogen.
Guys with gyno actually have the opposite, Low Testosterone and High Estrogen- the ratio is backwards. But here’s where things get interesting and actually, really bad for guys who have MAN-BOOBS.
SO HERE FOR THOSE GUYS WHO HAVE THIS PROBLEMS…
As your estrogen levels increase, your body tells your testicles to produce LESS Testosterone. So, that’s Bad News.
Whats worse is that the Body’s natural estrogen inhibitor….the way your body tries to naturally lower Estrogen internally…
Is by increasing the Hormone- Dihydrotestosterone, also known as DIHT.
Which is primary cause of balding and excess body hair (back, shoulder)
So, guys with gyno have more Estrogen-more body fat, depression etc Less Testosterone- smaller muscle, lower sec drive etc. Higher DHT- balding, sbody, hair etc.
But get this, the bad news continues…
Because there’s another major hormonal imbalance typically seen with “man-boobs” guys- higher levels of the stress hormone, cortisol which further DECREASES Testosterone levels even more, causing an even higher ratio of estrogen, so on and so forth.
So the bad news keeps getting worse.
The negative hormonal imbalance cause even bigger imbalances as your age and also as you get fatter which is further enhanced by the Hormonal imbalances.
Simply stated which explains why its so much harder for you to gain muscle or lose fat and why your sex drive keeps going lower and you lose more and more muscle every year.
And basically, your aging and getting older, at a faster rate. So, listen… I can go on about this topic because it also causes higher cholesterol, blood pressure, blood sugar, erectile problems etc.
But by now Guys I hope you get my point.
So, lets Quickly talk about solutions.
- SURGERY:
Some people need to have surgery to remove the gyno. This is fine, especially if yours is big. Make sure you find an EXPERIENCED doctor who has done this Surgery dozens and hundreds of times.
However, regardless of the surgery, you still must improve your hormonal imbalance- which include 3-4 solutions. - Estrogen Levels: you need to reduce your estrogen levels. This is done by losing fat, this is because fat cells increase estrogen levels.
- Eat better: lots if foods increase estrogen- such as Soy products and animal protein, primarily because of all the hormones in the foods. For example, chick eat soy products and that gets into the chicken and then into you- even the ‘organic free range’ junk.
So you needs to eat more vegetables and healthy fats- such as coconut, nuts, seeds, avocados and so forth. - Increase Testosterone:
LIFT WEIGHT
NO INTENSE, LONG DURATION CARDIO
EAT FATS
SLEEP BETTER
Take specific, clinically Proven, Hormonal Balancing supplements.
