DeAromatase Dietary Supplement
To Correct Estrogen Excess & Obesity
by Dr. James Howenstine, MD
DeAromatase is a Patented Proprietary Blend Containing:
Natural herbs and phytonutrients designed to create optimal hormone levels.
This therapy contains Nettle Root Extract (Urtica dioica), Pumpkin Seed
Oil (Curcubita pepo), Pygeum Africanum (Prunus Africana) bark extract
standardized to contain 13% total sterols and Chrysin.
Validation Of DeAromatase DA Theory About Benefits
DeAromatase DA was formulated based on existing scientific research
about the components that were believed likely to accomplish hormonal
balance. Saliva hormone tests were obtained before and after 48 hours
of DA therapy. The subjects were on no supplements and the testing was
done in an independent laboratory. Saliva tests were used to determine
the actual amount of hormones that were available to be used by the subjects.
There was an average increase of 125% in the ratio between bioavailable
testosterone and estrogen.
DeAromatase works in three ways:
- Inhibits the enzyme aromatase which is responsible for converting
androstenedione A and testosterone T to estrogen. Blocking the conversion
of A and T to estrogen allows more T to be biologically available to
overcome the adverse effects of a decreasing amount of estrogen. In
the normal situation, with no effect from DeAromatase, all testosterone
produced is converted into estrogen thus increasing the estrogen excess.
- Controls the enzyme 5 alpha reductase 5AR which produces conversion
of testosterone to dihydrotestosterone DHT. Without this enzyme control
it would be impossible to increase the quantity of testosterone because
all testosterone produced would simply be converted to more dihydrotestosterone.
When 5AR is inhibited the available Testosterone does not get converted
to DHT thus increasing the amount of testosterone. This allows testosterone
levels to rise and help overcome adverse effects of estrogen.
- DeAromatase also attaches to estrogen receptor sites thus preventing
estrogen from being active at these sites. The end result is less estrogen
effect and more testosterone effect.
Males can be helped by DeAromatase which changes the action of aromatase,
5-alpha reductase and estrogen receptor sites in a favorable direction.
Health problems of males that improve with DeAromatase therapy include:
- Decrease in the size of the prostate gland.
- Increase muscle mass and increase muscle strength
- Improve long and short term memory
- Moderation of mood swings,
- Improves osteoporosis
- Helps to prevent the development of prostate cancer
- Corrects impotence
- Heal immune function
- Helps resolves obesity
- Permits DHEA and androstenedione supplementation to be safely given
without raising estrogen or dihydrotestosterone levels.
- Ameliorates depression.
- Improves function of heart muscle
- Restore fertility to body builders using steroid supplements
Low testosterone values increase the risk of death[1] from all causes
by 33% in males between 50 and 91 years of age in an 18 year study conducted
at Rancho Bernardo Heart Institute...
Female health problems that can be helped by DeAromatase include:
- Treatment of estrogen dependent breast cancer
- Heal fibrocystic breast masses
- Shrink uterine fibroids
- Correct obesity
- Restore muscle mass
- Heal osteoporosis
- Improve long and short term memory loss
- Alleviate mood swings
- Improve immune function
- Terminate heavy menstrual bleeding Heavy prolonged menstrual bleeding
is a common cause for hysterectomy.
- Restore normal menstrual cycles which have been altered by high estrogen
levels
- Relieve depression
- Correct Infertility
In a private clinic all women seen for infertility were found to be
supra-estrogenic[2] by hormone testing. More than 100 consecutive women
have become fertile when their estrogen excess was corrected with DeAromatase.
A male body builder had been married for 20 years while taking steroid
drugs. His wife failed to become pregnant. Within 30 days of starting
DeAromatase therapy his wife was pregnant.
A common side effect of DeAromatase is loss of cravings for sugar. By
lowering the secretion of both glucose and insulin blood sugar values
become stabilized and the low blood sugar values that elicit insulin secretion
with hunger sensations do not occur. This results from the chrysin in
the product.
All males undergo changes in their relationship between testosterone
and estrogen which shifts toward more estrogen and less testosterone with
aging. . These changes can begin in the 30s. This estrogen dominance leads
to arteriosclerosis, decreased sex drive with impotence, memory loss and
cognitive impairment, poor glucose control, fat gain with muscle loss,
impaired cardiac function, osteoporosis and enlargement of the prostate
gland.
Many products exist that claim to inhibit aromatase but none have shown
clinical studies in which hormones were shifted toward normal as quickly
or effectively as DeAromatase does.
Hormonal Treatment Of Obesity
The problem of obesity becomes worse each year in the USA .Several important
contributors to this problem are physical inactivity, massive consumption
of empty sugar calories from the ingestion of more than a half pound of
sugar daily per citizen usually from packaged foods, sodas etc., lack
of omega 3 fatty acids and extensive use of artificial transfats in margarine
and cooking oils. Persons who eat only food that spoils will avoid the
sugar, MSG and aspartame which are secretly placed in many foods leading
to obesity. Many individuals have unknowingly become addicted to sugar.
This is the reason sugar is added to nearly all packaged foods so that
sales will increase.
Males and females have the same hormones (testosterone, estrogen, androstenedione
and progesterone) but the quantities of each varies by sex. Nearly all
males and females in developed societies are victims of excess estrogen
because we are daily exposed to estrogenic substances(auto exhaust, estrogen
implanted into beef, propylene glycol in foods, herbicides, pesticides,
plastics, zenoestrogens in cosmetics, etc.). This problem contributes
to hormone imbalance which can only be corrected by decreasing the effects
of excess estrogen within our bodies..
Hormone abnormalities also have a major role to play in creating obesity.
Estrogen causes fat storage and weight gain. Fat cells produce and secrete
estrogen and the enzyme aromatase. When we gain weight the increased stored
fat produces more aromatase, is responsible for converting androstenedione
and testosterone into estrogen. Higher levels of estrogen also promote
insulin resistance, which is a state where large amounts of insulin are
nearly worthless at lowering blood sugar values by burning up the sugar
molecules. To make this problem even worse estrogen causes the slowing
of metabolism when excessive estrogen binds to thyroid hormone (triiodothyronine).
Metabolic slowing from estrogen's thyroid effects and the impaired burning
of glucose subsequent to insulin resistance causes the body to store calories
as fat instead of burning them as a source of energy. Steady weight gain
has thus been created by too much environmental estrogen added to the
effects of an increasing quantity of internally produced estrogen from
the aromatase conversion of androstenedione and testosterone into estrogen..
Obviously dieting and exercise are doomed to failure as they do not resolve
the problem of hormone imbalance.
DeAromatase answers the excess estrogen problem weight gain by several
actions. The conversion of androstenedione and testosterone into estrogen
is blocked by DA.. By plugging the estrogen receptor sites with DA the
excess estrogen can no longer create more fat in an enlarging number of
fat cells. When the increasing amount of estrogen is reversed insulin
begins to move glucose into cells normally and the thyroid metabolism
returns to normal. Both these effects promote weight loss. Testosterone
becomes increased toward normal and this brings about an increase in muscle
mass with loss of fat tissue. The excess fat is now steadily burned up
returning weight to normal.
Increase in strength and vigor is common when taking DeAromatase therapy.
Maximal weight loss occurs in the second and third month of De Aromatase
therapy because time is initially needed to restore proper hormone levels
Cycle Long Term DeAromatase DA Therapy
Dr. X[3] has observed that persons taking DeAromatase for long term
usage seem to have better results if they cycle the product. This means
that taking DA for 5 days and skipping 2 days works the best. The usual
dose for men is 5 capsules daily taken in 3 divided doses. The correct
dose for women is one capsules three times daily. Obtaining an annual
saliva hormone profile will enable the dosage to be corrected if necessary.
Patients tolerate De Aromatase without side effects... Another valuable
use for DeAromatase is helping cancer patients, particularly those who
have taken chemotherapy and radiation, regain normal endocrine function
so their chance of recovery is improved.
