3 Ways to Lower Estrogen for More Testosterone
1. Natural Aromatase Inhibitors
Instead of expensive Aromatase Inhibitor drugs that come with side effects… You can eat foods to naturally inhibit or prevent aromatase from turning your testosterone into estrogen like,
- Grapeseed Extract, alcohol-free red wine & apples all have a powerful natural aromatase inhibitor called Procyanidin. This study shows how grape seed extract can inhibit aromatase by at least 80%.
- Green Tea also contains procyanidin but green tea also helps you lose fat where most of the aromatase enzyme is made.
- Dark chocolate, peaches, black beans, blackberries, nectarines, kiwi, mango, bananas, black eye peas, walnuts & cashews also contain procyanidin.
- Parsley & Celery are high in 2 natural aromatase inhibitors called Apigenin & Luteolin. Apigenin also stimulates your body to produce more testosterone.
- Red wine, rosemary, oregano, artichoke, peppermint, thyme, spinach, basil & chamomile also contain Apigenin & Luteolin.
- Melatonin & Resveratrol are both just as good as the Aromatase Inhibitor drug letrozole according to this study
- Red wine, red grapes, peanuts, dark chocolate & blueberries are all high in Resveratrol → 5 Natural Ways to Boost Melatonin Production
- Zinc & Selenium are natural aromatase inhibitors. Foods high in Zinc & Foods high of Selenium
- Pomegranate Juice is a natural aromatase inhibitor proven to increase testosterone by 24%.
Focus more on losing fat. Your body fat is where most of the aromatase enzymes are made. Less fat = more testosterone and no need for aromatase inhibiting foods or drugs.
2. To get rid of excess estrogen,
- Improve your Gut Health & Liver function eating healthier organic foods, drinking mostly water and getting at least 25 grams of fiber daily to flush out excess estrogen.
- Eat more RAW cruciferous vegetables like broccoli and kale. The Indole-3-Carbinol (or I3C) they have gets rid of excess estrogen. Supplement with I3C or List of cruciferous vegetables. I3C is also an aromatase inhibitor.
- Improve your body's methylation process of flushing out excess estrogen with vitamin B12 (from animal products), Folate (from green leafy vegetables) Betaine & Choline from meat, fish, shellfish, eggs, spinach, beets, and quinoa or supplement with SAM-e
3. Try to Avoid Xenoestrogens
Xenoestrogens are 'testosterone lowering' man-made estrogens or chemicals like BPA, Parabens & Phthalates found in plastic products, lotions, pesticides, air fresheners, detergents & deodorants. To limit your exposure to Xenoestrogens,
- Use glass, stainless steel, ceramics or 'BPA Free' products to store food & water. Avoid plastic & Styrofoam products with the highest amounts of xenoestrogens.
- If you must use anything plastic then do not heat it in anyway because this makes the xenoestrogen more powerful.
- Drink filtered instead of tap water treated with xenoestrogens.
- Eat more organic foods, wash your fruits & vegetables and peel off any non-organic fruits & vegetables.
- Don't eat any commercially raised meats & dairy products full of artificial hormones → Why milk lowers testosterone
- Use natural personal care products. Don't use any soaps, toothpaste, lotions, detergents, shampoos, body washes or shaving products, colognes, or air fresheners with parabens (methylparaben, ethylparaben, propylparaben and butylparaben) as an ingredients.
- Use natural plant-based cleaning products.
