Importance of Cholesterol
Testosterone is a byproduct of many chemical reactions that originated from LDL-c (form of cholesterol). Even though LDL has been labelled bad cholesterol by our medical institution, it is NOT bad for you.
Can high cholesterol levels potentially be dangerous? Yes when there is inflammation, oxidative stress and a diet rich in sugars, vegetable oils and other chemical environmental toxins present. Under these conditions cholesterol can oxidise into the harmful ox-LDL and triglycerides can be elevated.
However in a healthy individual both HDL and LDL are of crucial importance. We believe that the public fear mongering of cholesterol and LDL has let to suboptimal cholesterol levels in both children and adults.
The first pillar of testosterone production is cholesterol production and absorption. We can support this mechanism by optimising our liver health and including enough fats in our diet such as fish, red meats and eggs. Reducing the risk of oxidative stress and inflammation requires making sure other organs such as our heart and kidneys are supported to reduce risk of disease such as cardiovascular illnesses.
Different Testosterone Pathways
The second pillar of testosterone production is providing all the nutrients needed for the enzymes that control the chemical reactions to convert LDL-c to testosterone. Nutrients such as vitamin B6, vitamin D, zinc, vitamin K... are necessary during these steps. Not just consumption of these nutrients is important but also the ability to absorp and partition them is crucial.
The third pillar of testosterone health is managing and balancing the pathways of testosterone. Once we have converted LDL-c into testosterone, the hormone can take different pathways which are not all as beneficial and some can cause significant side effects and health risks.
Testosterone can be converted into oestrogen or DHT. If elevated both can cause serious harm and side effects. That is why its important to reduce the enzymatic activity of the enzymes regulating these pathways. Our formula is loaded with ingredients to inhibit these pathways and reduce the amount of testosterone converted into these byproducts.
This avoids or reduces risk of the occurence such as mood swings, anger, hair loss, acne, depression, prostate cancer...
Free Testosterone
The fourth pillar is maximising the amount of bio-available testosterone to the body. After reducing the loss of testosterone being converted into DHT and oestrogen, we need to reduce the amount of testosterone that is bound by proteins.
SHBG and albumin can bind onto testosterone and render it ineffective, not being able to do its job anymore.
It is very important that we reduce the amount of SHBG circulating as its bond to testosterone is too strong and can reduce the amount of free testosterone greatly. You can use calculators to enter your values from a blood test to see how this is affecting you.
