HORMONES - Lifestyle Is Critical

1) be active and

2) watch your refined carbohydrates in your diet so you keep your insulin levels in check

3) minimize stress to the extent possible to keep cortisol in check

Being active can be accomplished by building activity into your day and/or getting involved in an organized exercise program. When you get your hormones at optimal levels it is recommended you take your body out and use it. Exercise a minimum of 4 times per week and preferably 5 times – 1 to 1.5 hrs.

If you eat foods that are quickly converted to sugar, it will cause your insulin to rise. This is not just bad for your body in general but also signals the body to store fat and works against the optimal function of your new hormones. For ideas on eating, check the “South Beach” or “The Zone” eating plans.

Stress causes the body to excrete cortisol. Cortisol is very destructive to cells when present in excess. It also causes the body to store fat and like insulin, works against the optimal function of your new hormones. Eliminate stress where possible and learn basic techniques for controlling stress such as deep breathing. Additionally you need to consider using DHEA and Pregnenolone to deal with this issue.

Lifestyle also involve providing your body nutrients not contained in the average diet:

1) Multivitamin —without iron including selenium (good for prostate health)

2) Omega 3 (fish oil)—stimulates blood circulation, lowers blood pressure, reduces triglycerides(fats), and reduces the risk of a heart attack.

3) Prostate Formula DIM —a derivative of cruciferous vegetable such as broccoli and brussell sprouts. There is evidence that increased amounts of Estrogen causes prostate cancer. DIM is responsible for blocking the carcinogenic pathway. Minimum daily dosage 200mg.
Resveratrol—(known as Red wine in pill form)—NO ALCOHOL. Its many benefits include anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory, blood sugar lowering, and beneficial cardiovascular effects. Minimum 300mg.

Vitamin D3—induces the death of cancer cells. (minimum dose of 3000 units)
