Product Information
Malesterone is designed for men who want the best out of life. Each capsule is packed with a blend of potent herbs, amino acids and minerals. As men age past 35 and into their 40’s, hormonal changes occur that perceptibly inhibit physical, sexual, and cognitive function. The outward appearance of a typical middle-aged male show increased abdominal fat and shrinkage of muscle mass, indicating a hormone imbalance. Many experience a loss of feeling well, sometimes manifesting as depression. This is a common psychological complication of hormone imbalance. Until recently, these changes were attributed to "growing old," and men were expected to accept the fact that their bodies were entering into a long degenerative process that would someday result in death. Many of the diseases  middle-aged men begin experiencing, including depression, fatigue, abdominal weight gain, alterations in mood and cognition, decreased libido, erectile dysfunction, prostate disease and heart disease are directly related to hormone imbalances. To the patient's detriment, conventional doctors are increasingly prescribing drugs to treat depression, elevated cholesterol, angina, and a host of other diseases that might be caused by an underlying hormone imbalance.  The most significant hormone imbalance in aging men is a decrease in free testosterone, while estrogen levels remain the same or increase precipitously. As men grow older they experience a variety of disorders relating to the dual effects of having too little testosterone and excess estrogen. The result is a testosterone-estrogen imbalance that directly causes many of the debilitating health problems associated with aging. One cause of hormone imbalance in men is that their testosterone is increasingly converted to estrogen. Estrogen is an essential hormone for men, but too much of it causes a wide range of health problems. The most dangerous acute effect of excess estrogen and too little testosterone is increased risk of heart attack or stroke. High estrogen levels have been implicated as a cause of benign prostatic hypertrophy (BPH). One mechanism by which nettle root extract works is to block the binding of growth-stimulating estrogen to prostate cells. When too little testosterone is present, estrogen attaches to testosterone cell receptor sites throughout the body and creates  problems. In youth, low amounts of estrogen are used to turn off the powerful cell-stimulating effects of testosterone, but as estrogen levels increase with age, testosterone cell stimulation may be locked in the "off" position, thus reducing sexual arousal and sensation and causing the loss of libido so common in aging men. High serum levels of estrogen also trick the brain into thinking that enough testosterone is being produced, further slowing its natural production. This happens when estrogen saturates testosterone receptors in the hypothalamus region of the brain. The saturated hypothalamus then stops sending out a hormone to the pituitary gland to stimulate secretion of luteinizing hormone that the gonads require to produce testosterone. High estrogen can thus shut down the normal testicular production of testosterone. A further complication of excess estrogen is that it increases the body's production of sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG). SHBG binds free testosterone in the blood and makes it unavailable to cell receptor sites. The solution to this problem is to block the conversion of testosterone to estrogen.

The Critical Importance of Free Testosterone
Testosterone is much more than a sex hormone. Testosterone receptor sites occur in cells throughout the body, most notably in the brain and heart. Youthful protein synthesis for maintaining muscle mass and bone formation requires testosterone and it improves oxygen uptake throughout the body, helps control blood sugar, regulates cholesterol, and maintains immune surveillance. The body requires testosterone to maintain youthful cardiac output and neurological function. Testosterone is also a critical hormone in the maintenance of healthy bone density, muscle mass and red blood cell production. It is one of the most misunderstood hormones as body builders tarnished its reputation by putting large amounts of synthetic testosterone drugs into their young bodies. Synthetic testosterone abuse can produce detrimental effects, but this has nothing to do with the benefits that a man in his 30’s, 40’s and older can enjoy by properly restoring his natural testosterone to youthful levels. Maintaining youthful levels of free testosterone may restore strength, stamina, cognition, heart function, sexuality, and alleviate depression.

Obesity and hormone Imbalance

Consistently scientific literature shows that obese men have low testosterone and very high estrogen levels. Central or visceral obesity ("pot belly") is recognized as a risk factor for cardiovascular disease and Type-II diabetes. Boosting testosterone levels decreases the abdominal fat mass, reverses glucose intolerance, and reduces lipoprotein abnormalities in the serum. A study showed that serum estrone and estradiol were elevated twofold in one group of morbidly obese men. Fat cells synthesize the aromatase enzyme, causing male hormones to convert to estrogens. Fat tissue has been shown to literally "aromatize" testosterone and its precursor hormones into potent estrogens. Obese men have testosterone deficiency caused by the production of excess aromatase enzyme in fat cells and also from the fat they consume in their diet.

Excess “Aromatase” Enzyme

As men age, they produce larger quantities of the aromatase enzyme which converts testosterone into estrogen. By inhibiting the aromatase enzyme a significant decline in estrogen levels may result, while often boosting free testosterone to youthful levels. Therefore, an agent designated as an "aromatase inhibitor" may be of special value to men who have excess estrogen.

The Solution

Massive research has been undertaken concerning all the facts relating to testosterone decline for which we cannot go into more detailed information here. Should you desire to pursue a solution in restoring and maintaining youthful levels of testosterone besides going the synthetic route, our bio-available product may the key factor for success. We have carefully selected a unique combination of powerful herbs, amino acids and minerals that may deliver the desired results as a preventative measure against potentially hazardous health conditions that occur in the aging man. Malestrone aims at increasing free testosterone levels naturally, while inhibiting aromatase production.
