WHY SEXY PEOPLE LIVE LONGER

2010-08-12T16:48:00.000-07:00

By Dr. Nick Delgado

Heart Disease is the leading cause of millions of deaths among American adults. Over half will die with no prior symptoms; they may even pass a stress treadmill test the day before! Those with ED (Erectile Dysfunction) are the most likely to have plaque in their arteries.

One particularly effective treatment is the “Delgado Protocol” that has gradually developed over the last 30 years as a successful approach to the prevention and reversal of coronary heart disease and stroke. Delgado discovered that the cornerstone of longevity requires consumption of a diet as close to nature as possible, with raw unprocessed foods low in fats and cholesterol. He believes that we can extend our life expectancy with proper diet, exercise, supplementation and various other alternative approaches that will surely slow the inevitable decline.

We now believe that anti aging also requires an integrated approach including all things that are as safe and natural to the body as possible. A positive attitude and connections with social networks that foster love and intimacy are important to longevity.

Hormone Literature Survey
Dr Alfred Wolf from Germany spoke of restoring bio identical hormones and balancing estrogen metabolism. In “Estrogen Metabolism, the Male Toxin”, reprinted in the winter 2003 issue of
Anti Aging Medical News, Dr. Delgado describes what Dr Wolf had suspected was that certain harmful estrone like metabolites (E1) are more toxic than expected and possibly contribute to the increasing rates of prostate cancer, breast cancer, obesity and heart disease. In Circulation, 2004 May 4; 109(17):20074-9. Epub 2004 Apr 19, Dr Muller identified that elderly men with higher estrogen levels had faster rates of progression for carotid atherosclerosis than men with
higher bio-available Testosterone. (This entire paradigm shift of testosterone being good for men and certain types of estrogens being bad for men is well covered in “Testosterone for Life” by Abraham Morgentaler, MD, of Harvard Medical School – Ed.)

A strong predictor of death in cardiac patients was found in those with low free T3. Free T3 is a thyroid test rarely requested by endocrinologists since the bioactive portion is in lower concentration in the body than T4, this has led to the erroneous assumption that enough T4 would convert to the T3. Circulation, 2003; 107:708 Araujo AB, et al, with the Massachusetts Male Aging Study, observed increased cancer rates and mortality in men with low testosterone, as reported in the Endocrine Society’s 87th Annual Meeting June 4-7, 2005 San Diego Calf, Abstract p 1561. Stattin P et al. in prospective studies, discovered less prostate cancer in men with higher testosterone, and more prostate cancer in those with higher estrogen levels, Int J Cancer 2004 Jan 20;108(3):418-24. For female cardiovascular disease, Harman et al. in the KEEPS (Kronos Early Estrogen Prevention Study) looked at early use – upon initiation of menopause – of natural hormones. KEEPS used transdermal bio identical Estrogen cream or Estradiol pellets and Testosterone pellets surgically implanted every 6 months (avoiding the dangerous oral estrogens) combined with natural progesterone, and Estroblock (the absorbable form of DIM & IC3 from cruciferous vegetables). Lower rates of cardiovascular disease were found in 720 women on the therapy for 5 years. They also had better calcium scores and less carotid Intimae thickening than those on placebo.

In his PhD thesis and newest book, Stem Cell Therapy for Joint Fitness & Anti aging Methods, Dr. Delgado reported on 769 individuals with whom he performed lipid tests, carotid artery exams and blood pressure along with 6 month rechecks for two years on dietary intervention (using recipes from the soon to be released 2nd edition of How to Look Great and Feel Sexy & a Cookbook by Nick Delgado) with astonishing results. To improve compliance, it is noted that NLP – Neuro-Linguistic Programming – which creates an internal change in values garnered better results. This protocol included daily exercise and the results showed a dramatic reduction of 15 to 50% triglycerides (those with the highest levels showed the greatest reductions), 15 to 50% cholesterol (especially the bad LDL), lowered insulin requirements, better blood glucose levels and lower blood pressure. The carotid artery measurements utilizing ultrasound measurements of the artery walls also improved. He feels that carotid artery scans must be done on all men who are turning to Viagra for a quick fix for their sexual dysfunction. He also obtains laboratory specimens to check levels in urine, blood and saliva to determine the presence of hormone deficiencies – particularly 24 hour urine for testosterone and estrogen metabolites as deficiencies are often missed on single blood draw. Thanks to Dr. Delgado’s dedicated research, we can now better understand that certain elevated metabolites can pose a huge threat to life expectancy including: risk of ED, heart disease, stroke and breast or prostate cancer). The goal when using a physical assessment is to approach those levels of excellent health with ideal youthful levels of hormones.

Longevity Literature Review
Observing the health and longevity of people who eat better than Americans provides clues to the potential gains from eating healthier and reducing chronic diseases.
Japanese longevity appears to be based on diet and it is interesting to note that their rate of smoking is higher than Americans. Japanese people who eat a diet based on complex carbohydrates such as purple sweetpotatoes that are low in sugar, rich in fiber and flavor along with little meat and no dairy products have an average lifespan of 86 years for women and 79 years for men—four to five years longer than people following the average American diet.
Vegetarians in USA live longer and vegans (meat and dairy free) live the longest. Vegetarian Adventists do even better with women living an average 89 years and men 86 years. (4). In fact, a direct comparison with other similar Californians found that vegetarian Adventists live an average of 10 years longer.(4). However, these vigorous vegetarians still include way too much dairy, eggs, soy protein, and vegetable oils in their diets to achieve the full potential of human longevity—leaving the opportunity to add a few more “good” years for people who are fully informed.

Plant-based Diet for Longevity
The November 2005 issue of National Geographic magazine carried an excellent article, “The Secrets of Living Longer.” They reported on three groups of long-living people from Okinawa Japan, Sardinia Italy, and Loma Linda California—and the one thing they all had in common was a plant-based diet. See the one-page “Do It Yourself” article with the subtitle, “Go Vegetarian.”
Verified Centenarians in Japan

• Increased Sexual frequency at early and advanced age, and higher hormones, according to over 100 peer
reviewed Japanese Journals
• Ushi Okushima, age 100 Ishikichi Tanaka, age 101, reasons for longevity:
• Continued activity and fitness into advanced years.
• A diet rich in plant vegetables, sea vegetables and sweet potatoes.
• Herbal medicine with less toxic side effects than western medicine.
• Family support and lower stress levels.

We can have the best natural medicine with advanced hormones and diet
Natural bio-identical hormones (not the synthetic drugs) according to Thierry Hertoghe, Rothenberg, Wright and as presented by Dr. Delgado in San Diego, A4M, September 2006, concludes that if you take the time to review the literature, you may overcome your objections and start on an anti aging plan they advocate, more than just a good diet and exercise. It must include anti aging principals to restore declining hormones so as to age gracefully. What do you have to lose but a suboptimal quality of life?

Protein and Diet
Dr. Nick Delgado differs from those who think a high protein diet is healthy. He believes it is wrong to think that one must eat major amounts of protein to have muscle density, and consume higher cholesterol foods to produce the sex hormones. Okinawans have low meat intake and produce all the hormones at much better levels. Delgado follows a vegan diet, except when he travels. He consumes some meat, possibly like our ancestors did, on occasions of a feast only.

He disagrees with the belief that the best source of proteins need to come from lean meat. He believes like Kelly Nelson age 77, fitness star, that meats like chicken and fish are still too high in cholesterol and protein. Many old school bodybuilders believe the cave man was a meat eater, yet Delgado states we were actually gatherers. We probably hunted occasionally like the Banobo Monkeys, our 94% genetic match, as these monkeys routinely stand upright and are essentially vegans, getting most of their proteins from a diet rich in tubers, vegetables and fruit.

We can slow the aging process. See bobdelmonteque.com for Dr. Delmonteque’s proper use of hormones, diet, exercise, positive attitude and a passion for intimacy that have helped him to thrive and live with zest. He now advocates a Delgado Protocol lifestyle including the Delgado Protein Plus, rich in Hemp, Sweet potato, and Brown Rice, and Delgado’s Slim Blend, 52 vegetables and fruit with the highest fiber per scoop to reduce cholesterol and plaque in the arteries of the male organ and the heart.

Quality of Life, Love and Sex
The next question is- can we improve the quality of life as we age? The answers are quite positive, based on extensive questionnaires assessing happiness as presented at the anti aging conference in Madrid Spain, Nov 6, 2006 by Professor Manuel Castillo Garzon from the University of Granada. In studying longevity, Delgado suggests the book by Dr LP Adler on secrets of long lived people, “Centenarians, The Bonus Years”, Ed. Health Press, Santa Fe New Mexico, 1995 p 153-60. There were over 20 key factors found in common with these long lived people. One of which was their optimistic approach to life while being highly adaptable to change.

The longest lived people fell in love and maintained relationships with a significant other. The fact that they were usually highly sexually active when they were younger and some continued to enjoy sex into advanced years might have contributed to a production of hormones that were higher than shorter lived people. Could it be that one of the reasons that Centenarians lived past 100, according to Adler, was they often had a high sex drive in their younger years and some continued to enjoy sex past the normal expectations? Regular sexual activity will prolong life and enhance hormones that improve the quality of life as we age, it is advisable to have your arteries examined for soft plaque, not just significant narrowing, as the soft plaque is what breaks off and kills most Americans. References available on request. Of course the high rates of sexual activity may be secondary to maintaining high level of sex hormones into old age; i.e., the hormones may drive the behavior, which then re-enforce the hormones in a virtuous cycle.

Sex Literature Review
Queens University in Belfast tracked 1,000 middle-aged men for over 10 years. Those who had sex twice a week or more had half as many heart attacks. (Published in British Medical Journal 1997). The Kinsey Institute in Indiana continues to do research on the healthy benefits of sex. In summary, medical discoveries by the American Heart Association and American Association of Urologists have confirmed that...

Sex is good for your overall health including:

– Cardiovascular, Respiratory, Immune system
– Bladder control
-- Reduces Pain
– Burns calories
– Anti-Depressant
– Mild sedative
– Reduces Stress
– Live longer

A study in the British Journal of Urology International states that men can reduce their chances of getting prostate cancer by a third if they ejaculate five times a week, flushing the prostate of carcinogens. (Again, this performance data as well as the immune function data below, may be secondary to a man having high testosterone and DHEA respectively; it’s not clear that its causal vs. correlative. Ed.) Regular intimate activity can reduce the incidence of colds, influenza and sick days from the workplace. Evidence: Wilkes University in Pennsylvania found that people who have sex twice a week show 30% higher levels of immunoglobulin A, an antibody known to boost the immune system. If you already have a cold, sex is a natural antihistamine and can unblock a stuffy nose or combat hay fever. The point is not that we can live forever, but that we can enjoy better sex, better bones better energy, using Delgado’s approach. Look at the literature where hormones and stem cells account for more references than almost anything in medicine, and you will find that we can extend the quality of life.

The Truth About Longevity
To live past 114 years of age is uncommon with over 99% of all humans dying before the age of 114. Dr. Leaf exposed the lie about longevity in Hunza of Pakistan and in Vilcabamba, Ecuador and Russian Caucasus Georgia regions, as they lied about their age by passing on birth certificates to their children to avoid the wars.

• Soviet state of Georgia and Caucasus Mountains
• Hunza Valley in Pakistan
• Vilcabamba in Ecuador

All have exaggerated the number of centenarians – claims of living beyond the age of 120 years, proven untrue by Dr Leaf. The best verified records of a true extension of a quality life are found in Bama, China and Okinawa, Japan. They both follow the equivalent of the Delgado Diet, high complex carbohydrates and low fat. Facts about hormones assisting Longevity with a good diet. What is interesting is that people in rural areas of Japan and China also exhibit much higher testosterone, DHEA and estrogen levels for age 100 then our typical 70 year old in the USA.
Hormones need to be in balance, not too high or too low for longevity According to Thierry Hertoghe MD, of Belgium (author of the excellent book, “The Hormone Solution: Stay
Younger Longer with Natural Hormone and Nutrition Therapies” Ed, extremes need to be avoided, not too high or too low of hormones. It is likely that a vegan or Okinawa group of people with lower IGF-1 (a marker for HGH) yet better testosterone and DHEA levels could live longer and certainly a better quality of life by enjoying the benefits of the healthiest diet combined with natural hormone support.

Growth Hormone Promotes or Slows Aging?
In every human study reviewed with HGH given for 10 years or more, there is no increased rate of cancer. There is a perceived improvement in the quality of life. (Note that some early studies on HGH were stopped due to side effects of too high doses; the anti-aging medical community has learned since then to use lower doses.) Dr Hertoghe identified the research from the Journal of Endocrinology and Metabolism, Paolizzo, G, Serum IGF-1, IGFBP-3 in Healthy Centenarians in long lived individuals that IGF-1 was actually higher and the IGBP- 3 binding protein was lower than one would typically find in a senior citizen. This means that the free bio available IGF is more useable because there is less binding proteins (IGFBP-3) to interfere. The use of HGH can help us mimic higher IGF if used with caution.

Tests to insure protocol compliance:
1) Complete hormone panel by urine and blood which includes:
IGF-1, Testosterone, free and total, DHEA, Estrogen and thyroid for free T3, TSH, Insulin, and C – reactive
protein. Male PSA, LH, FSH. Female progesterone, LH, FSH
2) Urine 24 hour- Human Growth Hormone, metabolites of estrogen including 16alphaOHE and 2 OHE, Free
T3, Cortisol metabolites, androgen metabolites.
3) Blood tests for binding proteins: Transcortin-for binding proteins of Cortisol, SHBG –binding proteins of
estrogen and testosterone, IGBP-3 binding protein for IGF-1,
4) Hormone tests for adrenal function in saliva-Cortisol morning, noon, afternoon and evening.
5) Lipid, Free Fatty Acid, Glucose
6) Microscopy for live blood smears to observe morphology shape of cells and lipid material down postprandial –2 to 4 hours after a typical meal.
7) Dry blood smear to look for Reactive Oxygen toxic Species ROTS masses.

Summary
The proven methods to extend one’s life includes regular physical activity, intimate and social connection, a diet rich in fiber, low in fat, and high in nutrient density. Men who have difficulty with erectile function, are very likely ones with narrowed arteries, hormone decline, specifically free testosterone, and an increase in PDE-5 enzyme that blocks or prevents hard erections. Therefore, it is important to include a concentration of herbs found to enhance erectile function with Epimedium “horny goat weed” yet concentrated as an extract, combined with at least 800 mg a day of Avena Sativa “milky green oats” in at least a 10 to 1 concentration, along with a
diet that is nearly vegan – like to clear and reopen narrowed arteries. Dr. Delgado believes these proven lifestyle factors reduce mortality. We must now include the newest science of endocrinological intervention to support and prevent the gradual decline of hormones and return one to youthful safe levels. An intervention of herbal and hormonal support can restore lab levels, to the youthful levels of individuals 18 to 24 years of age. Match this with symptom related decline to restore function and expect profound benefits! This can truly improve the quality of life while one enjoys the golden years.

Here I am at the Irvine Hyperbaric Oxygen Event this past weekend covering my usualy gammut of protocols and topics. Autism, diabetes, cancer, weightloss, MS, Stroke, Alzheimers, sexual performance and peak athletic potential all covered in about 55 minutes. Enjoy!

What is Estroblock?

2010-05-24T14:39:00.000-07:00

Estroblock (60 ct) has among the highest concentrations of Diindolylmethane in each capsule with 100mg DIM with I3C 50mg for reducing fat building estrogens and restoring the good estrogens. Menopausal woman, women on birth control pills and men with prostrate problems often have concentrations of harmful type of estrone’s 16aOHE that can be safely detoxified with Cruciferous DIM and I3C. We use a special carrier molecule to allow the DIM to become highly effective and 5 times more effective than crystalline DIM with two capsules equal to over two pounds of raw vegetables. This is one of the only products that can improve the effectiveness of one’s own testosterone, enhancing lean body muscle while dissolving fat. Estroblock can be taken every day and night to correct imbalances of estrogens creating a tumor free environment within the body. Anti Aging Medical News spring 2003 journal abstract Estrogen a male Toxin by Nick Delgado PhD, has the complete description of the natural action of this product, which is why we have more doctors using the product for themselves and their patients.

The Magic of Raw Foods

2010-03-29T15:28:00.000-07:00

Some scientists believe that humans are electrical beings and need electricity or micro-electric currents to be healthy because micro-electric forces give energy that vitalizes all the cells in our body. We get this life energy from the air we breathe, the pure water we drink and the fruit, vegetables, nuts, seeds, and grains we eat. If you plant a nut, it will grow into a huge tree because of the life force contained within it.

Electric life force can be measured in live, raw food by using a zinc copper anode plugged into a digital clock. Bananas or apples will run the clock for two weeks, an orange gives 30 days of electric energy, and a lemon can provide electricity to the clock for over 6 months. Consuming electrically live food keeps us healthy. Eating cooked, baked and processed sugars and fats leaves us devoid of “electric” energy.

In the US, the top selling foods or products include coke, candy and cigarettes. We all know that processed food tastes good initially and sometimes gives a rush as your body deals with the dead food, but eventually, these foods make you feel drained and fatigued because this food is electrically dead. When you plug a transmitting wire into cooked, dead food, there is no electrical energy.

Okinawan Lifestyle epitomizes anti aging.

2009-11-22T15:20:00.000-08:00

What if there was a way to avoid a high percentage of the cases of Alzheimer’s Disease (memory loss leading to Death), Heart Disease (clogged arteries Lifestyle related), Cancer (Oxidative Stress Disease of tissue self destruction), and Diabetes (Metabolic Disease and tissue degeneration that causes highest incidence of stroke, gangrene in the world),

The solution of prevention exists Now. The Okinawans have been intuitively practicing it for centuries... we call this total lifestyle solution... The Delgado Protocol.

The Mediterranean diet may also improve cholesterol levels, blood sugar levels and blood vessel health overall, or reduce inflammation, all of which have been associated with mild cognitive impairment. Individual food components of the diet also may have an influence on cognitive risk. “For example, potentially beneficial effects for mild cognitive impairment or mild cognitive impairment conversion to Alzheimer’s disease have been reported for alcohol, fish, polyunsaturated fatty acids (also for age-related cognitive decline) and lower levels of saturated fatty acids,” they write.

________________________________________________________________

Alzheimer’s disease is a brain disorder named for German physician Alois Alzheimer, who first described it in 1906. Scientists have learned a great deal about Alzheimer’s disease in the century since Dr. Alzheimer first drew attention to it. Today we know that Alzheimer’s is a progressive and fatal brain disease. Today it is the seventh-leading cause of death in the United States. Learn more: Warning Signs and Stages of Alzheimer’s Disease. Is the most common form of dementia, a general term for memory loss and other intellectual abilities serious enough to interfere with daily life. Alzheimer’s disease accounts for 50 to 70 percent of dementia cases. Other types of dementia include vascular dementia.

Heart Attack and Stroke kills over 800,000 men and women, that’s nearly as many Americans dying per day (2,190) than died in 911 (2976 died)! yet no one has proposed a solution, until the Delgado Protocol was developed over a 30 year period to solve these Chronic Degenerative Diseases. It starts with reading this simple book, by getting a free newsletter written by Nick Delgado PHD.

Cancer is the disease no one but Suzanne Summers wants to admit is preventable. The obvious answer to the problem is being ignored by most Americans.

Heart disease is the leading cause of death for both women and men in the United States.1In 2005, 652,091 people died of heart disease (50.5% of them women). This was 27.1% of all U.S. deaths or 222 per 100,000 population.

Heart disease is the leading cause of death for American Indians and Alaska Natives, blacks, Hispanics, and whites. For Asians and Pacific Islanders, cancer is the leading cause of death (accounting for 27.5% of all deaths), heart disease is a close second (25.0%).

Coronary heart disease is the principal type of heart disease. In 2005, 445,687 people that died from coronary heart disease. That is about 68.3% of all heart disease deaths.5

It is estimated that about 47% of cardiac deaths occur before emergency services or transport to a hospital.

Risk factors for heart disease among adults
Percentage of persons aged 20 years and older with hypertension or taking hypertension medications: 32.1%

17 % with high blood cholesterol:
10% with physician-diagnosed diabetes:
32% who are obese:
18% who are current cigarette smokers
40% of adults aged 18 years and older who engage in no leisure-time physical activity (2006)

Studies among people with heart disease have shown that lowering high blood cholesterol and high blood pressure can reduce the risk of dying of heart disease, having a nonfatal heart attack, and needing heart bypass surgery or angioplasty. The Delgado Protocol can prevent or reduce over 90% of the risk factors, as did Dr Nick Delgado’s predecessor, Nathan Pritikin Plan.
Studies among people without heart disease have shown that lowering high blood cholesterol and high blood pressure can reduce the risk of developing heart disease.
- Life Span Could Shorten from Eating Too Much Red Meat. Diets high in red meat and in processed meat shorten life span not just from cancer and heart disease but from Alzheimer’s, stomach ulcers, and other conditions as well, a National Cancer Institute (NCI) study has found. In fact, reducing meat consumption to the amount eaten by the bottom 20 percent seen in the study would save 11 percent of men’s lives and 16 percent of women’s.
- “The consumption of red meat was associated with a modest increase in total mortality [deaths],” says Rashmi Sinha, Ph.D., lead author of the study reported in the Archives of Internal Medicine.

“This fits together with the findings of the American Institute for Cancer Research (AICR) and the World Cancer Research Fund (WCRF UK) and the American Cancer Society (ACS), which recommend limiting the consumption of red meat,” says Dr. Sinha, a senior investigator at the NCI.

Previous studies of red meat consumption usually found an association with cancer incidence. The authors pointed out, though, that many pooled studies had been conducted by vegetarian groups.
Last year, NCI researchers reported that a quarter-pound hamburger or a small pork chop eaten daily could put you at increased risk for a variety of cancers.
This latest study echoes that finding: The more red meat and processed meat you eat, the greater your risk of dying from cancer.

Women at Greatest Risk, Study Shows
Dr. Michael Thun, vice president emeritus of epidemiology and surveillance research at the ACS, however, says the study’s findings “support previous studies and also support the ACS nutrition guidelines.” These guidelines include choosing fish, poultry, or beans instead of beef, pork, and lamb; choosing leaner cuts of meat; and baking, broiling, or poaching meat rather than frying or charbroiling it. For the study, the researchers looked at more than a half-million people, ages 50 to 71, to find out what they were eating over the span of a decade. Participants tended to be Caucasian and educated with fewer smokers and more vegetable-and-fruit eaters than in the general population. During that time, more than 71,000 people died. Men and women eating the highest amount of red meat were found to have a 31 percent and 36 percent higher risk, respectively, of dying from any cause than those eating the least amount. Women eating the most processed meat were 25 percent more likely to die early than those eating the least of this type of meat, while men had a 16 percent increased risk, the study found. Causes of death for those in the study included diabetes, Alzheimer’s disease, ulcers, pneumonia, influenza, liver disease, HIV, tuberculosis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and more.

Dying from cancer also was more likely among those eating the most red meat: 22 percent higher for men, 20 percent for women. The risk for death from cancer increased 12 percent for men and 11 percent for women who ate the greatest amount of processed meat. Similarly, the risk of dying from cardiovascular disease was higher by 27 percent for men and 50 percent for women. Meat contains many carcinogens as well as saturated fat, which might explain the increased mortality risk, the authors explain. Dr. Jay Brooks, chairman or hematology and oncology at Ochsner Health System in Baton Rouge, La., described the study’s findings as “provocative.”

Study: High protein levels are associated with heart attack and not stroke

People with high levels of a protein called C-reactive protein (CRP), a marker for inflammation in the blood, may be at higher risk for heart attack and death but not stroke, according to a study published in the October 20, 2009, print issue of Neurology®, the medical journal of the American Academy of Neurology.

The researchers found that people with CRP levels greater than three milligrams per liter were 70 percent more likely to suffer a heart attack and 55 percent more likely to die early compared to people who had levels of one milligram per liter or less of the protein in their blood. The protein was not associated with an increased risk of stroke once other risk factors were taken into account.

“The role of this protein in predicting risk of stroke has been controversial although prior studies have found it to be a marker for predicting risk of heart disease,” said study author Mitchell Elkind, MD, MS, of Columbia University Medical Center in New York and a Fellow with the American Academy of Neurology. “However, in our large, multiethnic population, CRP levels did not play a role in predicting stroke, though they may still help determine whether someone is at risk of heart attack or early death.”

Eating a Mediterranean diet linked to lower risk of cognitive impairment
February 2009 21:07 Eating a Mediterranean diet appears to be associated with less risk of mild cognitive impairment-a stage between normal aging and dementia-or of transitioning from mild cognitive impairment into Alzheimer’s disease, according to a report in the February issue of Archives of Neurology.
“Among behavioral traits, diet may play an important role in the cause and prevention of Alzheimer’s disease,” the authors write as background information in the article. Previous studies have shown a lower risk for Alzheimer’s disease among those who eat a Mediterranean diet, characterized by high intakes of fish, vegetables, legumes, fruits, cereals and unsaturated fatty acids, low intakes of dairy products, meat and saturated fats and moderate alcohol consumption.

Over an average of 4.5 years of follow-up, 275 of the 1,393 who did not have mild cognitive impairment developed the condition. Compared with the one-third who had the lowest scores for Mediterranean diet adherence, the one-third with the highest scores for Mediterranean diet adherence had a 28 percent lower risk of developing mild cognitive impairment and the one-third in the middle group for Mediterranean diet adherence had a 17 percent lower risk.
Among the 482 with mild cognitive impairment at the beginning of the study, 106 developed Alzheimer’s disease over an average 4.3 years of follow-up. Adhering to the Mediterranean diet also was associated with a lower risk for this transition. The one-third of participants with the highest scores for Mediterranean diet adherence had 48 percent less risk and those in the middle one-third of Mediterranean diet adherence had 45 percent less risk than the one-third with the lowest scores.

Natural Hormone pellets by world experts

2009-07-07T14:34:00.000-07:00

Most people know that hormone therapy can be given in pill, cream, and injection form, but did you know that you can also have “pellets” inserted under the skin? This therapy has been performed in Europe and worldwide for over 73 years (since 1936), making it the oldest and most natural way to replace hormones safely to slow aging. Hormone pellets are surgically implanted through a small incision under the skin. They provide a slow, continuous release of hormones into the bloodstream. The compounded estrogen/testosterone substance bypasses liver metabolism, making this therapy superior to others without side effects when under a doctor’s care at Delgado Protocol.This procedure can be done with a local anesthetic in our office, and takes approximately ten minutes. This implanted hormone can last for up to six months.

Are you one of the millions suffering from hormonal imbalance? The Delgado Protocol provides a great solution:

Estrogen + Testosterone Pellets* (Women)Estrogen along with testosterone hormone pellets are used to treat medical conditions that include menopause, impotence, sex drive, heart disease, depression, migraine, cluster headaches, diabetes, osteoporosis, and muscle wasting. Menopausal symptoms such as hot flashes, mood swings and skin dryness can be greatly improved. Increased sex drive, reduction of headaches and a reduced risk of coronary artery disease and stroke are other benefits of hormone pellet insertion.

• The reason women also need testosterone, is because after hysterectomy, the ovaries are the principal site of not just estrogen production, but also testosterone output. Therefore when a woman, either due to surgical reasons or aging, will only receive maximum benefits if she also has a little testosterone added to her therapy.

Benefits to Women:
• Better overall well being and performance, Reduces hot flashes & night sweats, Accelerates fat burning & weight loss, Enhances libido & energy, Reducesmemory disorders, Helps combat osteoporosis, Improves emotional state & outlook, Helps you to look, feel and act younger with the complete Delgado Protocol.

Testosterone Pellets (Men)
Testosterone hormone pellets are used to treat medical conditions that include andropause, heart disease, adult-onset of diabetes, Parkinson’s Disease,prostate cancer, sexual performance, depression and cluster headache. Angina relief, improved heart function, insulin resistance, depression, and fatigue can be greatly improved with hormone pellet placed just under skin into tissue lasting 3 to 5 months..*

In summary benefits include:
• Aids men by enhancement of libido and increase sexual drive, reduce fatigue and increase energy levels. Most report within day’s greater capacity for getting in shape, reduction of anger, nervousness and irritability.

Why come to Delgado Protocol for this and other therapies?

for your natural bio identical hormone consultation appointment!
4121 Westerly Place # 114 Newport Beach CA 82660

As a procedure practiced in Europe since 1936 and introduced in the United States by Robert Greenblatt, bio-identical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) consists of the introduction of slow release natural hormone into the body.Bio-identical means that the hormones are exactly the same as those produced by the human body. They are not synthetic, simulations nor replicas.Derived from natural plants such as yam, while others use soy (known to cause allergic reactions) BHRT’s are made by a compound pharmacy and possess the exact hormonal structure of human estradiol or testosterone.The Delgado method helps patients enhance their overall well being by attaining a better hormonal balance, avoiding many of the major risks associated with synthetic HRT’s. The Delgado approved MesoPellet™ works with every patient’s own body clock in providing just the right dosage of natural hormones when your body needs it. MesoPellet™ can help turn back the clock in patients’ lives, with individuals possibly feeling 30-35 years old again.Delgado Protocol may include MESOPELLET™

• All natural hormone therapy derived from plants, not synthetically produced.

• Personalized, bio-identical prescription for every patient, not a generic product.

• Implanted into skin once every quarter; no pills, creams or injections needed daily or weekly. No up & down effect.

• Thorough screening and testing throughout process to assure maximum hormonal match, balance and comfort.

• Eases menstrual migraines, post partum depression and chronic fatigue for HIV/AIDS patients.The Delgado Procedure:With MesoPellet™, a small lentil-sized natural hormonal pellet is embedded into the patient’s middle skin layer (Greek “meso”); either in the abdominal wall or buttock area, a local anesthesia is performed before the insertion. The pellets are placed under the skin with the use of a sterile trochar. The highly individualized treatment is effective for up to four months and repeated quarterly, after blood tests are performed both before the first insertion of the pellet and after initiating the treatment, to monitor the patient’s hormone levels.

High-altitude acclimatization is understood to evoke increases in red blood cell count, hemoglobin and capillary density. Moreover, when high altitude-acclimatized individuals exercise at lower altitudes, mitochondrial density increases in response to the additional availability of oxygen, resulting in increased strength, stamina, and numerous other benefits. (Living High/Training Low).

In a normal healthy body, red blood cells deliver oxygen to the tissues, including all the muscles. This oxygen is used by the mitochondria in the muscle cells to convert carbohydrates and fats into energy. At high altitude, less oxygen is available for use by the body. The body compensates by increasing the number of blood vessels and red blood cells. The increased red blood cells and capillaries allow more oxygen to be delivered to the body’s cells.

Extensive research into the high-altitude adaptation response reveals that it results in the kidneys producing erythropoietin (EPO), a hormone that up-regulates red blood cell (RBC) production. This increase provides more oxygen available to the target cells. Additionally, high-altitude conditioning has been proven to increase the number of capillaries, providing more surface area for oxygen exchange.

Integration of bio identical hormones with diet, exercise and whole food supplements reduces the risk of heart disease and breast cancer.

2009-03-19T12:30:00.000-07:00

It is clear based on over 75 years of research pertaining to the risk factors for Heart Disease and Breast cancer in women, that the following well established practices should be a matter of course.
Begin with a healthy diet, as described by Ernest Wynder MD, of Sloan Kettering, the first doctor to prove a relationship of smoking and lung cancer, he stated that a whole food diet (like the one described by Nick Delgado PhD and Nathan Pritikin of 10-10-80) as a way to dramatically reduce prolactin and LDL cholesterol levels and woman at risk for breast cancer.

(1) James Barnard of UCLA published his findings of work with Nathan Pritikin and Nick Delgado of exercise and diet to combat heart disease and breast cancer. This beneficial outcome may be because we were reducing the abnormal metabolites of estrogen and testosterone conversion, such as 16 alpha Hydroxy Estrone while improving the good estrogen of the 2 OHE. (2) Although testosterone replacement may increase the downstream metabolites for estrogen in women, the use of DIM and Ic3 clears the problem along with a healthy diet and exercise. (3).
Indeed, hormone replacement, even if its bio Identical can increase abnormal metabolite activity, however when in the proper diet, exercise and supplementation, we see a positive outcome reducing risk factors of LDL cholesterol and prolactin levels related to a lower risk of breast cancer and heart disease. (4) The proper understanding of low testosterone and androgen deficiency must be treated otherwise female symptoms of fatigue, body fat gain in the abdomen, loss of libido, receptivity to sex, loss of bone density and lack of feelings of wellbeing will continue in our adult female population. (5) It is suggested the testosterone with estrogen pellets implants are likely a preferred method of enhanced hormone modulation in females as well as testosterone implants in men, with over 60 years of excellent clinical findings. More current findings show a lower risk of heart disease in those with bio identical hormone implants. (6) The confusion over the use of bio identical hormones and synthetic is not only related to oral vs. Transdermal vs. injection vs. pellet implants but also from lack of controls with diet, exercise and the needed preventative aspects of evidence that has been ignored by the women’s Health study of self reported use of hormones, low dosages of testosterone and assumptions about diet and activity in the study. (7) (8) (9)
Testosterone given to males or females by injection, or better yet by pellet implants, has no negative effect on lipids, cardiovascular risk factors, or PSA, especially when controlling for and using a diet high in fiber as described in the Delgado Protocol and exercise. The natural hormones of youth can restore many of the lost abilities of middle age and seniors with proper Endocrinological intervention, tests, examinations, and dosing with natural hormones combined with the herbs and fibers from whole food. (10) (11) (12) (13) (14). There is a new classification of herbal combinations that can naturally enhance testosterone while clearing harmful estrogens in both men and women. Also the increased immune function and healthy joints are likely to be noticed within less than 5 weeks of using Stem Cell Strong, with Stem 2 Go.

Why Most Men using “Blue Pills” fail to have… the best sex of their lives

2009-01-05T22:06:00.000-08:00

If you like most men, you might have tried the “blue pill” and got that headache, stuffy nose, and blue vision the next morning, while feeling like you were beat up the night before, rather than an experience of having great Sex!

I want you to think back several years... when you were a young man of 20 years old. How was sex back then?

How was your sex drive back then?
Did you get aroused easily?
How hard was your erection?
Was it spontaneous?
And what is the intensity of your orgasm?
Was it out-of-this world?

If you're like most men, I am pretty sure your answer would be... "well, as far as sex is concerned, it was the best in my life when I was a 20 year old guy".

Women often report better sex as they age due to being past child baring age (fear of pregnancy is gone), better technique of there more mature lover (according to Drs Bob Delmonteque, Nick Delgado and Ava Cadell ). Yet, women can also have a drastic decline in intimate function if they have had a hysterectomy (loss of the ovaries the site of testosterone production).

Now, I want you to put that thought aside and consider the possibility you can have even better sex than you ever had before... right now, today.

"How is that possible?" You asked? Isn't low sex drive, a weak erection, and a non-fanfare orgasm part of aging? Something that is usual and inevitable as we grow older? Well, for most men past the age of 40, the decline will continue to where he is having coitus (fancy word for sex) less than once a month! Unless he understands what Bob Delmonteque, age 87, will tell you. "You stop using it, you lose it." You replace hormones naturally with Dr Nick’s products – wow you back in the saddle so to speak.

You see, the above symptoms (low sex drive, a weak erection, and a non-fanfare orgasm) can be traced back to one root cause. That is... the decline of testosterone production and level.

Testosterone is the main hormone in us that maintains muscle mass and strength, fat distribution, bone mass, sperm production, sex drive and potency.

In short, testosterone and DHT is what makes a man enjoy sex and a women have more intense orgasms.

We reach our peak sexual capacity in our late teens. And from there on, it’s a downhill process. As we turn 30, the effects of decreasing testosterone become pronounced.

A gradual decrease in sexual responsiveness occurs. It will take longer for us to achieve full erection and direct and intense genital stimulation to maintain an erection. Orgasms and the feeling of ejaculatory inevitability become less intense. Semen volume decreases, which means less orgasmic pleasure. Our penis becomes softer faster after sex and it takes longer to regain another erection if at all. And the worst of the bunch, we lose interest in sex (low libido). Ouch!

All of this happens at the same time that testosterone production and levels decrease.

Testosterone production decreases with age due to a number of reasons: There is less luteinizing hormone (LH) from the pituitary to stimulate the testicular production of testosterone. With age, there are either fewer or less responsive Leydig cells in the testicles to produce testosterone. There is also an increase in the concentration of a blood protein SHBG (sex hormone binding globulin) that binds testosterone and reduces the activity of testosterone that does exist. There is less tissue production of DHT that is critically necessary to full male sexual function and bodily well being. And finally, the testosterone receptors in the cells are less sensitive to even the same levels of testosterone.

The Problem of Exogenous (external and synthetic) Testosterone Replacement Therapy is that it turns into ESTROGEN!

One of the most undesirable side effects of exogenous testosterone replacement therapy when men use DECA the often talk privately about “DECA D---” (Rhymes with sick) because they can become impotent with resulting shrinkage of Penis. What most bodybuilders don’t understand is the conversion of testosterone into Estrogen that will cause shrinkage of the male genitals, the penile and testes. The medical term for the condition is "testicular atrophy". With prolonged usage, your penis will shrink to the size of your little finger. There are safer forms of testosterone replacement such as pellet implants that last over 3 months. This still must be done by an anti aging doctor who can monitor the lab results for the protection of the prostate. The good news is the correct combination of herbs will allow bio-Identical hormones to be safer to use.

Now imagine this. You get a high sex drive with the testosterone replacement therapy initially, yes, but unless you know how to clear the inevitable build up of a harmful form of estrogen (16aOHE) your erected penis is the size of your thumb. Not a very good scenario, isn't it?

As a matter of fact, the renowned expert, Nick Delgado PhD, based on medical Journal searches lists the following side effects with exogenous (external and synthetic) testosterone replacement therapy which converts into estrogen:

Cause skin reactions
Cause fluid retention
Cause baldness
Cause or aggravate sleep apnea (brief, repeated cessation of breathing during sleep)
Stimulate non cancerous (benign) growth of the prostate and cause or worsen urinary symptoms
Stimulate growth of prostate cancer that's already present
Enlarge breasts (Gynecomastia)
Stimulate growth of breast cancer that's already present
Cause testicle shrinkage (Testicular atrophy)
Limit sperm production (Infertility)
Stimulate excess blood production (Polycythemia)

I'm sure you agree with me. It’s not pretty. However the number of prescriptions of testosterone replacement therapy has increase over the years. And the primary reason is I believe the lack of emphasis by doctors and pharmaceutical companies on the negative side effects of the treatment. The Discovery that powerful phyto-chemical herb combination will prevent these harmful side effects was written about back in Winter 2003 in Anti Aging Medical News, titled: Estrogen, the Male Toxin, by Nick Delgado PhD.

I have traveled around the world including trips to Indonesia, Malaysia, China and India where I spoke before anti aging doctors looking for Natural Herbal ingredients to Boosts Your
Testosterone Level by Threefold ...Restoring it to Youthful Level ... with no Side Effects
Yes, you can enjoy the benefits of a testosterone boost without all the ugly side effects of exogenous testosterone replacement. The following combination will increase testosterone while clearing out harmful estrogens to open up the receptor sites for maximum performance.

Avena Sativa (milky green oats) , Nettles (leaf & Root)-(Urtica Dioca), Long Jack , clear clears or attaches to a binding protein (SHBG-Sex Hormone Binding Globulin) that releases the active bio-available testosterone. American Ginseng- increases sperm production, Gingko Biloba-circulation, ginger-warms the body for action, Velvet Antler-), L-Citrulline Malate - Watermelon Skin Extract, Horny Goat Weed, Cherry concentrate tart improves firmness of erection, green lip muscle - increase GH (assist Testosterone) and for PROSTATE & BREAST HEALTH- Cruciferous Vegetables like cabbage and cauliflower that contain Diindolylmethane to clear the bad estrogens.

We also suggest sing a rare herb found only in the lush virgin tropical rainforest of Indonesia called Eurycoma Longifolia Jack; you can easily raise your testosterone level to youthful level and enjoy these benefits. With this complete combination above, after only 15 days expect in men and women:

A high sex drive and libido
Longer, harder and more spontaneous erection (men penile, women clitoris)
Improve muscle mass and strength
A boost in energy and vitality
Increase bone mineral density
A sense of well being
Improve cognitive function

How these herbs Work Naturally Within Your Body to Boost Your Testosterone to its Youthful Levels

Let me briefly talk about Exogenous Testosterone Replacement Therapy. The term 'exogenous' means 'coming from external'. In other words, during such therapies, synthetic testosterone is introduced into your body and it starts to acts like your body's own testosterone. What happens next is your pituitary gland will signal to your Leydig cell and other testosterone synthesizing cell to stop testosterone production. The result: Penile shrinkage and testicular atrophy.

The mechanism of action of herbs like Tribulus and Tongkat Ali (Eurycoma Longifolia Jack) is the complete opposite.

First of all, it is not a synthetic testosterone product. It can't be since it’s a natural herb. What it does instead is... it increases your body's own testosterone production by stimulating the secretion of Luteinizing Hormones (LH) which in turns stimulates the Leydig cells of your testicles to produce testosterone.

Avena Sativa and Nettles also raises your body's levels of free testosterone. A large proportion of the testosterone that circulates in your body is bound by a protein call SHBG (sex hormone binding globulin).

Testosterone that is bound to SHBG is considered ineffective. Only free testosterone exerts the effects that are attributed to the hormone: one androgenic (masculinizing and sexualizing, both physiologically and mentally, and thus enhancing libido) and the other anabolic (building tissue, mainly muscle).

How Avena Sativa, Nettles root and Tongkat Ali's extract increases free testosterone is explanation is that the active ingredients capture and bind SHBG and therefore prevent SHBG from capturing circulating free testosterone.

The reason Dr Delgado knows this is he was part of private sector study investigating the use of various herb combinations while measuring in men and women the changes in free testosterone before and after the use of these herbs. There is no doubt that these herbs in sufficient dosage and concentration increases your testosterone level. Dr Delgado noticed his level of free testosterone went up from under .1 (almost non-detectable at age 38, while he was experiencing loss of libido-interest in sex) to over 28 –that of a teenager during puberty. Now past the age of 50 Dr Nick (see nickphd.com) maintains excellent natural high circulating levels of testosterone level which enhances:

A high sex drive and libido
Longer, harder and more spontaneous erection
Improve muscle mass and strength
A boost in energy and vitality
Increase bone mineral density
A sense of well being
Improve cognitive function

Why this special herbal combination is now available to get the Best for Your Money

By now, I'm sure you are pretty excited and you want to get your hand these herbs. Hang on there, turbo. There are a few things you must watch out for when buying herbs online. Here they are:

Buy Tongkat Ali Extract, Avena Sativa and Tribulus at specific the concentration, because if they are too low, it doesn't work.
And finally if possible, buy from good sources approved by Delgado Protocol.

The active ingredient within some of these herbs or roots is only present in small amounts. It is important to also take note of the concentration of the extract. For example, an extract that is 1:10 means 10 gram of Avena Sativa or Tongkat Ali root is used to produce 1 gram of extract. An extract that is 1:100 uses 100 gram of root to produced 1 gram of extract. Thus among the various herb extracts cited choose the ones that are the most concentrated and potent.

Watch out if a product simply says 'Tongkat Ali extract' without specifying the extract strength. The concentration could be too low. Technically it is still an extract. But therapeutically, it feels like nothing because the concentration just isn't high enough to have any impact on your body.

And finally, the topic of Malaysian Tongkat Ali versus Indonesian Tongkat Ali. First off, in Malaysia Tongkat Ali has been declared as a protected plant since 2001 and wild harvesting from its forest is illegal. There is also no Tongkat Ali plantation in Malaysia. So any manufacturer who claims that their Tongkat Ali is from Malaysia is probably stretching the truth or perhaps breaking the law. Secondly, Malaysia's Tongkat Ali has been found to be high in lead content, ranging from over 10 ppm (parts per million). Compared to Indonesian Tongkat Ali, the lead content according to our independent test is just 0.08 ppm.

So, In What Ways is the Delgado formula Unique?

Here's what the renowned US Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in its description of a research program for the quantitative measurement of the chemical or bioactive constituents of Eurycoma Longifolia (Tongkat Ali) said:

"The yield of the bioactive constituents is extremely low at less than 0.005%. Hence, they are not easily available for further studies and for commercial preparations. The plant also requires a longer time to produce the secondary bioactive metabolites and their biological activities may be derived from more than one of the constituents."

Two important points here to take note.

One, the bioactive ingredients of herbs like Tongkat Ali is extremely low as stated by the researchers of MIT.

Next, the second part of MIT's statement: "The plant also requires a longer time to produce the secondary bioactive metabolites." This means only old Tongkat Ali roots have an effect. How old? Traditionally, only roots older than 10 years old are used by men to boost their sexual vitality.

The Tongkat Ali roots we're using to manufacture Delgado formulas are wild crafted from the natural rainforest of Sumatra, Indonesia. And only in Indonesia can Tongkat Ali still be found in its wild, natural habitat. In other words, it is also the only place in the world where old Tongkat Ali can be harvested.

In the production of the Delgado formula, only Tongkat Ali roots, Avena Sativa and Nettles of the correct potency are used.

And being aware that the bioactive ingredient of Tongkat Ali and various other herbs are extremely low, the extract strength we use to produce is the strongest in the market.

These herb extracts are best taken 5 to 7 days a week toward the weekends (the time most couples have for intimacy), while taking Amore V or Mate X on the two days off during the week. The best way to take the Delgado formula is to take 2 servings per day for fifteen days, and then take Mate X or Amore or both. Therefore, a bottle of Amore or Mate X is good for a month-average 10 encounters of Coitus per month). With increasing demand and a fast diminishing supply, invest now for best value.

Dear friend,

This herbal combination works and it works amazingly well. It is the closest nature has ever come to creating the perfect aphrodisiac. But many people who buy supplement off the Net will never come close to experiencing the wondrous sexual enhancement effect (among other things) of Delgado Formula. Before I go into the reasons why, there is a persistent myth about Sex herbs I want to dispel. And its going to disappoint you. Most Intimate Herbs only work because they spike them with chemicals! Health Canada warns consumers not to use natural sex enhancer Libidus due to potential health risks-A similar warning appeared about the herbal blue pill called StaminaRX in the USA. Health Canada is warning consumers not to use the natural health product Libidus because it contains an undeclared pharmaceutical ingredient, a modified form of vardenafil, which is similar to the active pharmaceutical ingredient found in the prescription drug Levitra. The use of Libidus could pose serious health risks, especially for patients with existing medical conditions such as heart problems, those taking heart medications, or those at risk for stroke. Products containing vardenafil should not be used by individuals who are taking any nitrate medication because combining these products could result in the development of potentially life-threatening low blood pressure.

The use of products containing vardenafil has also been associated with serious side-effects which include serious cardiac events such as heart attacks. In rare cases, the use of vardenafil may result in penile tissue damage and permanent loss of potency.

—————————————————

Bluntly, regardless of brand, with most herbal supplements, "bootleg Viagra" or a similar ED drug has been added-unless they have a test proving they are free of the drug additives.

With Tongkat Ali its mechanism of action is it increases the testosterone level in our body. When that happens, you will experience a number of things. On the sexual enhancement department, that includes high libido, strong erection and intense orgasm. Just like how you felt sexually… as a teenager or young man when your level of testosterone is at its peak.

So with a Delgado approved formula, it goes down to the ‘root of things’. While it takes a longer time (generally about 3 weeks), the results are natural and on-going. You will feel really good because you can ‘get it going’ whenever you want… without having to rely on some kind of ‘fix-me’ pill.

L-CITRULLINE MALATE 2:1 may be the next “biggest thing” for health and exercise enthusiasts. It promotes endurance, recovery and resistance to fatigue associated with exercise, as well as supporting mental alertness & clarity, muscle fullness, and normal sexual functioning. It helps promote the production of nitric oxide over long periods and minimize the buildup of ammonia & lactic acid associated with weight lifting and exercise, increasing muscle energy & reducing “the burn,” allowing more intensity longer. 6g/day increased the after-exercise recovery of ATP by 34% and phosphocreatine by 20%. Sometimes called “aerobic creatine,” can be used with creatine for total endurance.** Also frequently combined with arginine, ornithine or other formulas associated with NO production. Athletes use 1 to 6g or more per day in 2-3 divided doses, especially before exercise.

Now with this out of the way, let’s dive into where to buy and how to use the Delgado natural herbal product for maximum effect.

STEM CELL STRONG -by Nick Delgado PhD

2008-12-04T10:01:00.000-08:00

Throughout history, man has pursued the perfection of the human body and performance. Anabolic Steroids were used by professional athletes of ancient Greece from small amounts of testosterone extracts in Bulls testicles and sheep testicles. In 1984, the book Death in the Locker Room by Dr. Bob Goldman and Dr. Ronald Klatz alerted doctors that oral use of Steroids or excessive dosages may be dangerous causing unwanted side effects. The book Steroid Nation by Assael tells of continued abuse among athletes and teenagers. The search for a safe way to improve performance without side effects was a goal of many researchers in the creation of Stem Cell Strong.The benefits of using Stem Cell Strong may include Looking and feeling great, more energy, improved joint health and recovery.

Anti- Aging medical doctors trained by the A4M in interventional endocrinology found better ways to increase muscle mass, decrease fat, fight the ravages of aging and restore the quality of life. Mylonglife team of researchers led by Nick Delgado PhD, the oldest (age 53) Strength Endurance competitor in London 2007 and world record holder 2008 found new scientific evidence to challenge the genetically superior athlete. “Genetics and youth offer advantages over less gifted, genetically smaller, older less muscular individuals.” However we can maximize ones potential to improve insulin response along with special conditioning and superior supplements created by MyLongLife.com to increase energy output”.

The Mylonglife team discovered natural and safe alternative to Steroids without side effects. A product called Stem Cell Strong slows the catabolic (breakdown of tissues) with the right types of potent natural substances in concentrated dosages rich in Beta Glucans. It stimulates stem cells to encourage the immune system to assist in rapid healing and repair of the body after exercise and sleep. The benefits of Stem Cell Strong, rich in 28 powerful herbs including long jack, nettles, and oat sprouts have been clinically shown to release the most bioactive form of free testosterone. These powerful herbs, enzymes and phytochemicals can have a potent safe natural anabolic effect to increase muscle density and fitness. Concentrates of broccoli rich in phytochemicals of DIM and Ic3 from Cruciferous vegetables excrete unmetabolized estrogens and reduce sex binding proteins. The release of free hormones from binding proteins increases the natural anabolic effect. This will increase muscle mass, tissue repair and body fat reduction.

We created Stem Cell Strong to improve intimate function (best results combined with Amore V or Mate X) and reduce symptoms of andropause-male hormone decline and menopause -female hormone decline as complementary therapy in partnership with your doctor’s medical advice.

Aging cells replicate slower, inflammation, free radical damage and hormone decline are the critical factors that are addressed by mylonglife supplements. Most supplements don’t work as well as drugs because they are either too diluted or not using the right combinations sufficient to stimulate the body’s natural powers to release of free testosterone, growth hormones and thyroid from binding proteins. The ingredients in Stem Cell Strong assist the body to excrete unmetabolized estrogens and reduce sex binding proteins to increase the natural anabolic effect (building of muscle tissues).

Stress in our daily lives may reduce a person’s feeling of virility and libido. Stem Cell Strong is the ultimate power food free of synthetic chemicals for men and women. Science and nature now provide safe, effective and powerful testosterone enhancing alternatives that come from all natural sources. Stem Cell Strong can provide your body support for increased muscle mass, building endurance, speeding recovery or increased libido, orgasmic intensity and improved joint mobility. Stem Cell Strong contains the following Proprietary blend of ingredients:

Medicinal mushrooms: Maitake (Grifola frondosus), Reishi (Ganoderma lucidum), Lion's Mane (Hericium erinaceus), Cordyceps (Cordyceps Sinensis), Tremella (Tremella Fuciformis): Out of an estimated 38,000 species of mushrooms, most provide a wealth of protein, fiber, B vitamins, and vitamin C, as well as calcium and other minerals. Maitake and Reishi have also demonstrated phenomenal healing potential. These medicinal mushrooms have been shown to boost heart health; promote immune function; fight viruses, bacteria, and fungi; reduce inflammation; combat allergies; help balance blood sugar levels; and support the body's detoxification mechanisms.

Cordyceps: This ancient Chinese mushroom is used to help the body increase endurance, strength, and potency. We are not saying that this product will heal the body because of stem cell activity. However some scientists believe that enhancing the immune system with Beta-Glucan by increasing stem cell concentrations and white blood cell activity, followed by proper collection of stem cells and targeted therapies may prove to be beneficial to one’s health. The addition of Maitake (Grifola frondosus), MBG at 100 μg/ml increased the colony counts up to 140% of those for the controls. When we evaluated this difference using the actual mean number of CFU-GM colonies, had essentially the same results -Hong Lin Enhancement of Umbilical Cord Blood Cell Hematopoiesis by Maitake Beta-Glucan Clin Vaccine Immunol. 2007 January; 14(1): 21–27.

Aktivated Barley is rich in phytochemicals, Beta-Glucan and SOD Enzyme 2 that have special properties to benefit your health. Ancient Roman physicians created a scientific process to activate barley meal for keeping newborn babies alive that could not be breast fed. This was due to the amazing life sustaining energy released up to 400% more energy through the activation process of enzymes, allowing the grain to germinate without sprouting. Throughout history barley was also used for endurance by the original Olympians who would down a cup before each event, by Roman and Greek armies marching across continents at 5 mph carrying 60 pound loads and weapons, and by Roman Gladiators to build strength and stamina to fight longer in the circus. The fierce gladiators were often referred to as hordearii, or "men who eat barley" due to its prominence in their diet and its important role in their endurance and stamina. This is a slow burning low glycemic index food source approved by the Diabetes resource center. We use a patented process to increase the beta glucan content by up to 94% over traditional barley grain products as shown in research performed at a well respected AnalyCen laboratory in Europe.

Beta Glucan is the name given to a class of polysaccharides that appear as soluble fiber in certain foods like Aktivated Barley. Beta Glucan consumed through food sources may lower cholesterol and the risk of heart disease. In a study conducted at the Chicago for Clinical Research after only 6 weeks, Beta Glucan fed groups showed significant reductions in cholesterol while the control group showed none. According to many studies Beta Glucan can also assist the body build immunity by activating immune cells known as macrophages that trap and consume foreign substances in the body.

Avena Sativa -Oat Sprouts: Contains unique proteins and lipids that positively affect the male reproductive organs while nourishing and strengthening the nervous system. According to Dr Nick Delgado’s book, Grow Young and Slim, this potent natural ingredient clears SHBG and releases free testosterone. Nettle Extract: When used in conjunction with Avena sativa increases the potency of both, as they are synergistic in their energies. Cabbage and organic cauliflower are rich in phytochemicals including DIM and I3C with benefits of proper estrogen metabolism, according the Anti Aging Medical News, winter 2003, Nick Delgado, Estrogen, the male Toxin.

Velvet Antler: This remarkable ingredient’s use can be traced back to China in 206 BC where it was used to treat impotence and since then has been used to treat that and a host of other ailments. Velvet Antler, which is nature’s most bioavailable source of glucosamine and testosterone building factors. Reports suggest that it stimulates the body's metabolism and protects and restores damaged organ tissues by accelerating healing.
Horny Goat Weed-Epimedium-is rich in Icariin beneficial effects on erectile function and nitric oxide production enhancing adenosine and guanine nucleotides which is why we use this concentrated natural herb to enhance intimate function. Dell'Agli M, Galli GV, Dal Cero E et al. Potent Inhibition of Human Phosphodiesterase-5 by Icariin Derivatives. J Nat Prod. 2008;71 Sep 9. Xin ZC, Kim EK, Lin CS et al. Effects of icariin on cGMP-specific PDE5 and cAMP-specific PDE4 activities. Asian J Androl. 2003;5:15-8.

Long Jax: A proprietary extract of Eurycoma Longifolia, a plant, which is a natural aphrodisiac and testosterone booster.
Green-Lipped Mussel: Studies have shown this may increase the level of Human Growth Hormone (HGH), which affects the production of testosterone in men. Green Lipped Mussel, which is rich in collagen building muco-polysaccharides, may inhibit inflammation in the body. Although inflammation is normal under certain conditions, consistent or excessive inflammation can result in pain and damage to the body, including the joints.

Maca: Is an excellent source of essential minerals, fatty acids and 19 amino acids. Its reported beneficial effects for sexual function are not related to changes in testosterone yet it could be due to its rich source of vital nutrients. Gonzales, GF. Cordova A., (2003). "Effect of Lepidium meyenii (maca), a root with aphrodisiac and fertility-enhancing properties, on serum reproductive hormone levels in adult healthy men". The Journal of Endocrinology 176 (1): 163–8. Gonzales, GF. Cordova A., Vega K., (2002). "Effect of Lepidium meyenii (maca) on sexual desire and its absent relationship with serum testosterone levels in adult healthy men".Andrologia 34: 367.

Pumpkin Seed: These have been used by many cultures as a good source of iron, fiber, and other minerals, as well as being used by men to reduce the symptoms of prostate enlargement and as an anti-parasitic.

American Ginseng: Traditional Chinese and Korean Medicine has used Ginseng for centuries. Evidence exists that Ginseng may increase testosterone levels, sperm production, and enhance sexual activity. Gingko Biloba: Used to increase blood flow throughout the body to reverse impotence related to poor circulation. Ginger: This herb has been used for thousands of years in Asia and in Ayurvetic medicine as a sexual stimulant creating a warm sensation during sexual activity.

Tart Cherries contain powerful antioxidants and phytochemicals as validated by the ORAC method. This can assist the body to reduce oxidative stress associated with aging.
In addition to Glucosamine, MSM is added which studies show may be helpful in improving joint health. Naturally occurring sulfur (MSM) should not be confused with inorganic sulfides, sulfites, and sulfates to which many people are allergic. Some of sulfur's essential functions include maintaining structure of proteins in the body, helping the formation of keratin (essential for hair and nail growth), aiding in the production of immunoglobulin (maintains the body's system) and catalyzing the chemical reactions that change food into energy. MSM is often so effective for in improving joint mobility that doctors are able to lower the dosage of medication they prescribe for patients. The end result is relief along with fewer or no side effects that are frequently caused by prescriptive medications.

Spirulina: An amazing complete source of highly digestible vegetarian protein that is rich in B vitamins, particularly B-1, B-2, B-3, B-6, and more importantly, the richest source of B-12 in nature. Blue Green Algae has been purported to contain valuable RNA and DNA protein and is also rich in minerals, chlorophyll, and antioxidant vitamins like beta carotene.

We dare you to find a more complete super food the Stem Cell Strong.

By Nick Delgado PhD

At the Delgado Protocol, we have discovered that the cornerstone of longevity requires consumption of a diet as close to nature as possible. With foods grown naturally with little or no processing, with a focus on raw food free of fats whenever possible.

We now believe that Anti Aging also requires an integrated approach including all things that are safe, as natural to the body as possible. A positive attitude and connections with social networks that foster love are important to longevity. We believe with proper diet, exercise, supplementation and various other alternative approaches to slow the inevitable decline, we can extend one’s life expectancy.

Dr Alfred Wolf from Germany also spoke of restoring bio identical hormones and balancing estrogen metabolism. In Estrogen Metabolism the Male Toxin, reprinted winter 2003 in Anti Aging Medical News I described what Dr Wolf suspected was that certain harmful Estrone like metabolites are more toxic than expected possibly contributing to the increasing rate of breast cancer, prostate cancer, obesity and heart disease. In Circulation, 2004 May 4; 109(17):20074-9. Epub 2004 Apr 19, Dr Muller identified elderly men with higher estrogen levels had faster progression of carotid atherosclerosis than men with higher bio-available Testosterone.

A strong predictor of death in cardiac patients was found in those with low free T3 (Free T3 is a thyroid test rarely requested by Endocrinologists since the bioactive portion is in lower concentration in the body than T4 and the erroneous assumption that enough T4 would convert to the T3). Circulation, 2003; 107:708

Araujo AB, et al, observed the Massachusetts Male Aging Study increased cancer rates and mortality in men with low testosterone, Endocrine Society’s 87th Annual Meeting June 4-7, 2005 San Diego Calf Abstract p 1561. Stattin P et al. in prospective studies, discovered less prostate cancer in men with higher testosterone, and more prostate cancer in those with higher estrogen levels, Int J Cancer 2004 Jan 20;108(3):418-24.

In woman, Harman et al. KEEPS study with early use (upon initiation of menopause) with transdermal bio identical Estrogen cream or Estradiol pellets and Testosterone pellets surgically implanted every 6 months (avoiding dangerous oral estrogens) combined with natural progesterone a lower rate of Cardiovascular disease in 720 women on therapy for 5 years. They had better calcium scores and less carotid Intimae thickening than those on placebo.

In my PhD thesis and the book Grow Young and Slim 3rd edition, I reported 769 individuals where we performed lipid tests, carotid artery exams, and blood pressure, followed by 6 month rechecks for two years with dietary intervention (using the cookbook How to Look Great and Feel Sexy by Nick Delgado) and NLP change values with Tony Robbins Mastery University to insure compliance, and daily exercise. This protocol resulted showed a dramatic reduction in 15 to 50% triglycerides, 15 to 50% cholesterol (especially the bad LDL) less insulin requirement, better glucose and blood pressure, along with improved carotid artery measurements using ultrasound measurements of the artery walls.

We can get lab levels in urine, blood and saliva to determine deficiencies and we can now better understand that certain elevated metabolites can be even more harmful to life expectancy (risk of breast or prostate cancer). The goal when using a physical assessment, are to approach those levels in excellent health with ideal youthful levels of hormones.

Japanese longevity based on diet, although they smoke more than Americans Observing the health and longevity of people who eat better than Americans provides clues to the potential gains from reducing chronic diseases. Japanese people who eat a diet based on complex carbohydrates rich in flavor and moderate in starches (rice –brown rice is better and vegetables) with little meat and no dairy products have an average lifespan of 85.59 years for women and 78.64 years for men—four to five years longer than people following the American diet.7
Vegetarians in USA live longer, Vegans (meat and dairy free) living the longest Vegetarian Adventists do even better with women living, on average, to 88.6 years and men to 85.3 years.4 In fact, a direct comparison with other white Californians found vegetarian Adventists live an average of 10 years longer.4 However, these vigorous vegetarians still include way too much dairy, eggs, soy protein, and vegetable oils in their diets to achieve the full potential of human longevity—leaving the opportunity to add a few more “good” years for people who are fully informed.

Proof of Longevity
The November 2005 issue of National Geographic magazine carried an excellent article, “The Secrets of Living Longer.” They reported on 3 groups of long-lived people from Okinawa Japan, Sardinia Italy, and Loma Linda California—and all had in common they followed a plant-based diet. Read the one-page “Do It Yourself” article with the subtitle, “Go Vegetarian.”
Verified Centurians in Japan

• Ushi Okushima, age 100 Ishikichi Tanaka, age 101 reasons for longevity:
• Continued activity and Fitness into advanced years,
• A diet rich in plant vegetables, Sea vegetable, Sweet potato,
• Herbal medicine that has less toxic effect than western medicine
• Family support-less stress
• Increased Sexual frequency at early and advanced age, Higher hormones -Higher testosterone, DHEA, Estrogen levels than 70 or 100 year old Americans- according to over 100 peer review Japan Journals

We can have the best natural medicine with advanced hormones and diet Natural bio-identical hormones (not the synthetic drugs) according to Thierry Hertoghe, Rothenberg, Wright MD and Delgado as presented in San Diego, September 2006 if you take the time to review the literature, you may overcome your objections and start on an anti aging plan we advocate, not just a good diet and exercise, it must include anti aging principals to restore declining hormones to age gracefully. What do you have to lose but a change in the quality of life?
I differ from those who think a high protein diet is healthy, It is wrong to believe that “you must eat protein to have muscle density, and sustain higher Cholesterol foods to produce the sex hormones (Okinawa have low meat Intake yet produce all the hormones at much better levels). My vegan diet, except when I travel, I consume some meat, possible like our ancestors did on occasion like a feast. I disagree with the belief that the best source of proteins need to come from lean meat, which I believe like Kelly Nelson age 77, fitness star, meats like chicken and fish are still too high in cholesterol and protein. Many old school bodybuilders believe the cave man was a meat eater, I say we were gathers. We probably hunted occasionally like the banobos monkeys our 94% genetic match, as this monkey routinely stands upright and nearly vegan getting most of their proteins from a diet rich in tubers, vegetables and fruit. We can slow the aging process see www.bobdelmonteque.com his proper use of hormones, diet, exercise, positive attitude and his passion for intimacy have helped him to live with zest. However the next question is can we improve the quality of life as we age? The answers are quite positive, based on extensive questionnaires assessing happiness as presented at the anti aging conference in Madrid Spain, Nov 6, 2006 by Professor Manuel Castillo Garzon from the University of Granada.

In studying longevity, we suggest the book by Dr Adler “secrets of long lived people* Adler LP, Centenarians, The Bonus Years Ed. Health Press, Santa Fe New Mexico, 1995 p 153-60. There were over 20 key factors found in common with these long lived people. One of which was their optimistic approach to life while being highly adaptable to change.

The longest lived people fell in love and maintained relationships with a significant other. The fact that they were usually highly sexually active when they were younger and some continued to enjoy sex into advanced years might have contributed to a production of hormones that were higher than shorter lived people. Could it be that one of the reasons that Centenarians lived past 100, according to Adler, was they often had a high sex drive in their younger years and some continued to enjoy sex past the normal expectations. Regular Sexual activity will prolong life and enhance hormones that improve the quality of life as we age:

Queens University in Belfast tracked 1,000 middle-aged men for over 10 years. Those who had sex twice a week or more had half as many heart attacks. (Published in British Medical Journal 1997).

The Kinsey Institute in Indiana continues to do research on the healthy benefits of sex. In summary, medical discoveries by the American Heart Association and American Association of Urologists have confirmed that sex is good for your overall health including:

– Cardiovascular, Respiratory, Immune system
– Bladder control
– Reduces Pain
– Burns calories
– Anti-Depressant
– Mild sedative
– Reduces Stress
– Live longer

Increased sexual activity can lengthen your life:
A study in the British Journal of Urology International states that men can reduce their chances of getting prostate cancer by a third if they ejaculate five times a week, flushing the prostate of carcinogens. Regular intimate activity can reduce the incidence in colds, flu’s and sick days from the workplace. Evidence: Wilkes University in Pennsylvania found that people who have sex twice a week show 30% higher levels of immunoglobulin A, an antibody known to boost the immune system. If you already have a cold, sex is a natural antihistamine and can unblock a stuffy nose or combat hay fever. I didn’t say we believe we can beat the age of 114 to 128, but we can enjoy better sex, better bones better energy with all that we advocate. Look at the literature where hormones and stem cells account for more references than almost anything in medicine, and you will find that we can extend the quality of life.

The truth about Longevity
To live past 114 years of age in most of know history is uncommon with over 99% of all humans dying before the age of 114. Dr Leaf exposed the lie about longevity in Hunza of Pakistan and in Vilcabamba, Ecuador and Russian Georgia regions, Caucasus, as they lied about their age by passing on birth certificates to their children to avoid the wars.

• Soviet state of Georgia and Caucasus Mountains
• Hunza Valley in Pakistan
• Vilcabamba in Ecuador

All have exaggerated the number of centenarians – claims of living beyond the age of 120 years, proven untrue by Dr Leaf The best verified records of truly extension of a quality life are found in Bama, China and Okinawa, Japan. They both of course follow the Delgado Diet high complex carb low fat. Facts about hormones assisting Longevity with a good diet What is interesting is people in rural areas of Japan and China, also exhibit much higher testosterone, DHEA and estrogen levels for age 100 then our typical 70 year old in the USA. Hormones need to be in balance, not too high or too low for longevity According to Thierry Hertoghe MD, extremes need to be avoided, not too high or too low of hormones. It is likely that a vegan or Okinawa group of people with lower IGF-1 yet better testosterone and DHEA levels could live longer and certainly a better quality of life by enjoying the benefits of the healthiest diet combined with natural hormone support.

Growth Hormone promotes or slows aging?
In every human study reviewed with HGH given for 10 years or more, there is no increased rate of cancer. There is a perceived improvement in the quality of life. Dr Hertoghe identified the research from the Journal of Endocrinology and Metabolism, Paolizzo, G, Serum IGF-1, IGFBP-3 in Healthy Centurians in long lived individuals that IGF-1 was actually higher and the IGBP-3 binding protein was lower than one would typically find in a senior citizen. This means that the free bio available IGF is more useable because there is less binding proteins (IGFBP-3) to interfere. The use of HGH can help us mimic higher IGF.

Tests to insure protocol compliance:
1) Complete hormone panel by urine and blood which includes:
IGF-1, Testosterone, free and total, DHEA, Estrogen and thyroid for free T3, TSH, Insulin, and C - reactive protein. Male PSA, LH, FSH. Female progesterone, LH, FSH

2) Urine 24 hour- Human Growth Hormone, metabolites of estrogen including 16aOHE and 2 OHE, Free T3, Cortisol metabolites, androgen metabolites.

3) Blood tests for binding proteins: Transcortin-for binding proteins of Cortisol, SHBG –binding proteins of estrogen and testosterone, IGBP-3 binding protein for IGF-1,

4) Hormone tests for adrenal function in saliva-Cortisol morning, noon, afternoon and evening.

5) Lipid, Free Fatty Acid, Glucose

6) Microscopy for live blood smears to observe morphology shape of cells and lipid material down postprandial –2 to 4 hours after a typical meal.

7) Dry blood smear to look for Reactive Oxygen toxic Species ROTS masses)

CONCLUDING REMARKS:
The proven methods to extend one’s life includes regular physical activity, intimate and social connection, a diet rich in fiber, low in fat, and high in nutrient density. Men have a difficulty with erectile function, most likely due to narrowed arteries, hormone decline, specifically free testosterone, and an increase in PDE-5 enzyme that blocks or prevents hard erections. Therefore it is important to include a concentration of herbs we have found to enhance erectile function with Epimedium “horny goat weed” yet concentrated as an extract, combined with at least 800 mg a day of Avena Sativa “milky green oats” with at least a 10 to 1 concentration, along with a diet that is nearly vegan like to clear and reopen narrowed arteries. We believe these proven lifestyle factors are expected to reduce mortality. We must now include the newest science of endocrinological intervention to support and prevent the gradual decline of hormones to youthful safe levels. An intervention of herbal and hormonal support to low lab levels specific to a target toward individuals of age 18 to 24. Match this with symptom related decline to restore function and expect profound benefits. This can truly improve the quality of life while one enjoys the golden years.

World Record Video Recap

DHT is not the culprit, with BPH, or prostate cancer, hair loss and obesity; its Excess Estrogen and the solutions are the Delgado protocol!

2008-01-30T19:58:00.000-08:00

DHT is not the culprit, with BPH, or prostate cancer, hair loss and obesity; its Excess Estrogen and the solutions are the Delgado protocol!

In summary, in most men past the age of 30, a gradual and insidious decline of testosterone is worsened by an increase in total body estrogens. Initially when and doctor decides a man needs augmentation of hormones and when one takes testosterone the free and total testosterone does increase, however depending on the deliver, oral, injection or transdermal; one will observe an increase in both DHT and estrogen.

The problem is that when the conversion of E1 (Estrone), E2 (estradiol), E3 (Estriol) occurs most doctors of fitness athletes and consultants who check these levels assume everything is ok if the Estradiol remains within a reasonable range (under 40), however the downstream conversion occurs in all men and women into over 40 different estrogen metabolites. This is where the problem occurs! We in the know (Dr Delgado, Crisler, Hertoghe, Suzie Schuder, Naina Sachdev, Alicia Stanton and Ester Mark MD) monitor these levels by 24 urine collection to get the total load of estrogens, especially the 16aOHE (hydroxyestrone)-Rhein lab or ADL, (Genova lab does a blood test for 2OHE and 16aOHE-Dr Patrick Hananeway).

The perfect hormonally balanced man- We then look at the ratio of 2OHE to 16aOHE, and so long as there is sufficient substrate from Bioidentical hormone augmentation, or the person in question is lucky enough to be age 16 to 24, when you get enough sex, your hair is thick, muscles bulging (provide weight training) and on a good diet that is low fat to prevent conversion of fat to estrogens in the intestines then dumping more into the blood and hair follicles, all is good.

The correction is not the suppression of DHT or even to stop testosterone for men. The key is to clear the bad estrogens, with the Delgado Slim Blend, Estroblock, Lean N Fit, while moving to 75% complex carbohydrates, lean protein up to 15% to total calories and less than 10% or not more than 15% fat. Understand this script of total calories conversion on a standard 2000 calorie diet, that is 9 calories per gram of fat, so at around 20 grams of fat (9 calories per gram, x 20 grams divided by 2000 calories = 9% fat) food in natural whole foods, without added grease and oils, we prevent estrogen conversion.

Use of hormones without dietary corrections would be like going into a barn fire with Kerosene instead of water to put the fire out! At over 40% fat, the average American diet, contributes over 90 grams of fat x 9 cal/g divided by 2000 calories = 40% fat (hamburger is 40 to 60 grams of fat, Kentucky fried Chicken is over 60 grams fat) men over time unable to burn these excess calories (radioactive tracers show that even if you are burning over 2000 calories, the fat is a secondary source of energy, as the brain needs glucose from complex carbohydrates at the rate of burn of 2 calories per minute, if one uses simple sugar coca cola, then calories enter at 18 calories per minute to fast to burn and excess turns into triglycerides (stored body fat or circulating fat).

Where does all this Estrogen come from and what sources of dietary fat is a major contribution? The fat from Olive oil or corn oil, cheese, butter or meat is already in the form of triglycerides and since it goes directly into the lacteals of the intestines, the huge amount of undigested fats pour into the blood stream, and clump blood cells together and absorb into the fat cells without, needing digestion, showing up radioactive tracers into the fat cells. Worse the fat stimulates production of estrogens, which is a fat retaining hormone, allowing one to build and retain more fat on the body, with some of the estrogens concentrating into the prostate (BHP or later prostate cancer), hair follicles (hair loss) although the DHT is present in the scalp, the DHT increases in the scalp only because the androgens of Testosterone are not strong enough to compete with estrogen (estrogen is 1000- times more potent than testosterone) and only DHT can exist in a body loaded with estrogen.

Delgado Protocol is the solution, not suppression of DHT- So Doctors then give finasteride, etc saw Palmetto thinking the bad guy is DHT, when in reality if they followed the Delgado Protocol, (as agreed by Patrick Hananway of Genova lab or Frank Nordt of Rhein Lab, and the other doctors listed above, we see the Estrogen comes back down as it clears out the urine (DIM, I3C and low fat diet clears the metabolites of 16aOHE (which blocks testosterone receptor sites) and the good Delgado diet and DIM, I3C in Estroblock and Lean N Fit allows the restoration of the good estrogen 2OHE (which doesn’t compete with testosterone).

We then use a shampoo script to help the scalp not only reduce the DHT only in the scalp, but also helps clear the estrogen in the scalp the main culprit behind hair loss. Then if our guys want to restore hair growth we restore the testosterone which has in combination with GH (restored to youthful levels) and Thyroid (measure Free T3) the ability to stimulate new hair growth, better erectile function, more muscle, less body fat etc, in other words a man's man youthful rock hard body, with function to match.

All this done without mega doses of Testosterone, GH, or synthetic types of Nandrolone (Body builders use the stuff because there is believed to be less conversion to estrogen, however there is evidence of progestin type compounds that are difficult to clear. The goal is steroid free, low dose augmentation of Bioidentical hormones (see the new cream Ultimate Hard body). I would also add the use of CVACsystems.com, optimum training, and the power of the mind like Secret training to achieve your goals.

Your lab will show a initial decrease in urine bad estrogens (16aOHE and 4OHE, and increase in good 2OHE) while the estradiol drops slightly, and the estrone’s come down, then the DHT can drop down to its safer natural level, of 3 to 1 as compared to testosterone with a DHT of 300, one might have a testosterone of 900 and a Estrogen of 20 to 40. At this point you have corrected the primary problems of men’s health.

Dr. Ron Paul supports Anti-Aging Medicine

2007-12-27T12:06:00.000-08:00

Dr. Ron Paul and Nick Delgado,
with A4M Founders,
Bob Goldman and Ron Klatz

I first became disenfranchised with the political process back in the 1960s. Shortly thereafter I entirely stopped paying it any mind at all and in all this time since I have never missed it once... Therefore, I have to admit to being largely ignorant when it comes to the state of modern politics today. If someone were to ask me my opinion about one polititian or another, I would tell them that in my experience, "politicians promise the world in order to get elected, but seldom deliver on those promises, and usually, somehow manage to make things a little bit worse for all their trouble before they are done"

So I was understandably reluctant to listen when members of my staff began telling me of how excited they were that Presidential candidate Ron Paul was to appear at this years annual A4M convention. They told me about some of his policies and I was impressed, but unconvinced that a candidate could make it very far running on a platform that seeks to remove so much power from the central government. My staff though, like an ever growing segment of people all over America remained resolute that Paul was indeed their man. I became intrigued that a politician could capture such loyalty from such an independently minded group as my staff.

So I took time out from my busy A4M conference schedule to attend Dr. Ron Pauls speech and I'm glad I did. Dr. Paul's views on the future of medicine in America are very much in line with my personal beliefs. The fact that Pharmaceutical companies dictate American medical policies has been a thorn in my side for a very long time. The fact that our government has bestowed on itself the right to dictate which science is valid and which is not is an even bigger thorn. Speaking of these problems in a public forum is something that no other politician would dream of doing... and I respect Paul immensly for doing it.

After his speech, I had the opportunity to tell him so. We spoke for about twenty minutes, took a few pictures, and he even signed an autograph for me to take back to my grateful staff. I now can say without hesitation that Ron Paul is the one exception to my rule about politicians. And though I may not agree with him on every single issue, I believe him to be an honorable man and that more than makes up for our differences. He's earned my vote.

NEW WORLD RECORD!!!

2007-10-31T02:37:00.000-07:00

It feels great to do something that no human has ever done.

On OCTOBER 23rd 2007, I accomplished something that amazed even myself. Something that no one on earth alive or dead has ever done before me.

In a single hour I lifted 50,640 lbs.

This feat was made possible by my strict adherence to the totalwellness plan of mydesign that I call the Delgado Protocol. Which includes my special diet and exercise plan as well as daily supplements created by my company Ultimate Medical Research.

Dear Friends,

2007-10-24T23:09:00.002-07:00

Dear Friends,

Thank you for all who attended and those who could not here is a quick announcement of the outcome of the event. At age 52, I have now broken the strength endurance world record for most pounds lifted in a single hour. (Official acknowledgment may take many months) The movement used was the dumbbell curl to press overhead for which I have become known. Prior known records were 41,025 lbs set by Tim Nash and before him Dragan Radovich who first popularized the "hammer curl" event. When all was said and done, my new record (which is not yet confirmed by Guinness ) was a staggering 50,645 pounds.

First off, I'd like to thank the incredible No Limits Fitness Center in Irvine California for hosting this event. No Limits is not only my training location of choice and the best all around fitness center I know of, but it is also a big supporter of my program "the Delgado Protocol for Health" and I am very excited to be a part of their team. Visit No Limits and check out the new Wellness Center Product Store where you will find all your favorite Ultimate Medical Research products in stock.

Of course it goes without saying that I could not done it without the tireless efforts of my staff, You guys made it it all come together, with a lot of hard work, you endured the stress behind the scenes (tight deadlines, California fires, etc.) I'm amazed at how much work you all put in, and I deeply thank you for it.

I would also like to thank my friends, and my family who came out to support me. Including my mother Bea, who flew in from out of state to cheer me on from the ringside.

Special thanks to our MC, Steve "Stealth" Miller who kept the audience enthralled and involved from beginning to end, and to Niurka, who made a lively guest appearance to interview me and my staff about the Delgado Protocol for Health that enabled me to perform this amazing feat of strength.

A word about Autism...

It is important to remember that though this is a time of celebration for everyone close to me, we must not forget that this was all done in the name of Autism research. And that it is this noble aim that should be celebrated. Funds raised from my lift-a-thon event will go to benefit ACT now for Autism, a fine charity doing a lot of good work for persons suffering from this unfortunate condition. Curing Autism means more to me than many of you can know, as the father of an Autistic young man I am deeply and emotionally invested in finding a cure. For 21 years my son Lance has suffered from Autism and has been unable to communicate on even the most basic social level. However, I am certain that with enough money and time devoted to the right kind of cutting edge technologies such as stem cell research, we can beat Autism within Lances lifetime.

Proper Nutrition for Age Reversal (Anti-Aging Protocol Part Two)

2007-10-13T10:02:00.000-07:00

Eat to Grow Slim

Replace unhealthy foods with health-supporting foods in your diet. This means you need to consume fewer high calorie, dense, dry foods like pastas, bread and cereal.
The Grow Young and Slim Plan is not a quantitative diet, which means you can eat all you want, as often as you want, as long as you choose the proper foods. Even though there are no set guidelines for how much you should eat, we strongly recommend that you avoid overeating because overeating is very hard on the body. The key is to pay attention to your body's hunger signals and eat numerous, small, high water-content meals as you are hungry. This will burn fat and keep your blood glucose at healthy levels all day.

Choose freely from the following foods:

• High water, high fiber, low calorie foods
For rapid fat reduction and high energy, eat as much as possible in this category. They range from about 10 – 70 calories per cup and are rich in fiber and water, which have almost no calories:
Lettuce, cucumbers, celery, mushrooms, cabbage, bok choy, cauliflower, all types of squash, turnip greens, green beans, mustard greens, bell peppers (green, red, yellow), asparagus, broccoli, spinach, tomatoes, carrots, Brussels sprouts, beets, artichokes, gazpacho soup, veggie soups, sprouts, water chestnuts, radish, endive, eggplant, zucchini, okra, watermelon, gooseberries, tangerine, lime.

• High water, high fiber, medium calorie foods
These fruits are also to be eaten in almost unlimited use. They range from about 70 to 101 calories per cup:
Grapes, peaches, apricots, oranges, pineapple, pears, papaya, honeydew and most other fruit.

• Medium water, high fiber, medium calorie foods
These foods should be eaten in moderate amounts per day because they have more food density and calories. It's best to limit them to four one-cup servings per day. They range from 109 to 137 calories per cup:
Mangos, Durian (Malaysia) olives (about 6 green or black olives), green peas, potatoes, corn, sprouted seeds, sprouted beans, sprouted grains, wild rice

• Low water, high fiber, higher calorie foods
These foods should be eaten in smaller amounts per day. They range from about 191 to 291 calories per cup, so it's best to limit them to three cups per day in order to stay slim:
Bananas, beans, lentils, pintos, etc, brown rice, sweet potatoes, avocado, corn tortillas, soy milk, soy cheese, rice milk, rice ice cream

Testosterone Therapy (Continued) - The Dangers of Bad Estrogen

2007-10-13T10:00:00.000-07:00

Estrogens cause men as much problems as estrogen dominance causes in women.

There are nearly 50 types of chemicals that we are exposed to that exert an evil estrogen like effect on the body. For example, plastics (bottled water micro-waved or frozen is worse), pesticides, and cosmetics mimic dangerous forms of estrogens increasing the 16-alpha-Hydroxyestrone and 4-Hydroxyestrone.

Problems such as weight gain, hair loss, and prostate enlargement are magnified, unless you know how to leach out or detoxify these ‘bad’ estrogens and restore the ‘good’ estrogens (2-Hydroxyestrone) along with the balance of testosterone. We use supplements with derivatives of cruciferous vegetables or flax. Japanese soy is processed differently with more beneficial effects than soy in the USA. Look for creams containing Chrysin, and Dim-Diindolylmethane to clear bad estrogens.

>Some drugs reduce estrogen production and some drugs reduce the conversion of testosterone to estrogen analogs.

Many of the drugs developed to decrease estrogen in women, are being used by some bodybuilders, to cut estrogen levels and therefore, fat. The most popular today is Arimidex. Arimidex is expensive and powerful, but can be divided into smaller dosages there by making it more affordable and reducing, somewhat, any possible side effects, when used long term. Most men who use this drug will suddenly notice the normal hair in the middle of their upper backs stops growing. That is because this is an estrogen sensitive area.

This is genetically coded and modulated by hormones. Some anti-aging, doctors including Paul Savage MD of Chicago, believe that hair growth on the head can be improved by reducing the bad type of estrogens, while restoring testosterone and growth hormone. Suppression of testosterone or DHT to reduce hair loss and control prostate enlargement has not been nearly as effective as the proper control and balance of estrogens and testosterone. Many knowledgeable doctors are using a shampoo to control scalp DHT, without suppressing total body DHT, realizing that man needs some DHT to be healthy, function sexually and virile.

Thierry Hertoghe MD of Belgium, also found that testosterone, along with ACTH hormone, could restore hair growth, along with proper administration of thyroid, cortisol and DHEA. Synthetic steroids are a powerful drug category, with many important medical uses, however, even the “cleanest” of the synthetically- derived testosterone androgens, such as nandrolone (also know in trade as “Deca”), can leave unnatural metabolites in the blood, some that have estrogen or progestin-like effects. With these particular metabolites, Arimidex may not do the job. They are actually better metabolized with DIM-(Diindolylmethane), found in our Lean N Fit and our Estroblock. A dosage of 300 to 600 mg a day (4 to 6 capsules combined) can be quite effective after two to four weeks, in fighting the estrogen-like rebound effects of synthetic steroids.

The number one reason why women can benefit from the addition of natural testosterone, is to enhance sexual function and energy. Dr. Eugene Shippen believes that if a woman is to receive proper bioidentical hormone replacement, the regime must include androgen replacement (in most cases). We have had literally thousands of women around the world use our Strength Energy cream with excellent results, because it restores androgens like testosterone, DHEA and pregnenolone.

In several studies, women with fatigue, low libido, feelings of low esteem or poor body image, bone loss, and PMS, can use low-dose testosterone gel or Strength Energy cream with excellent results. In general, low doses over a 1-2-year period, has helped many postmenopausal women recover or increase sexual drive, increase their frequency of sexual thoughts, satisfaction, energy and reports of
“general pleasure and zest” with life. Of course, too much testosterone can cause more overt side effects
for women. Women with low testosterone will really respond better to transdermal creams, or our Strength Energy cream that
contains beneficial androgens. Some women will need estrogen and progesterone therapy, especially if they have been on synthetic birth
control pills which elevate estrone without giving them the healthy benefits of natural estradiol, progesterone and testosterone. Estroblock will help those who have been on birth control pills to regain better body shape and health.

Testosterone Therapy

2007-10-13T09:56:00.000-07:00

Solutions for testosterone replacement therapy, includes injection, patches, pellets, orally -modified tablets, and/or creams. Gels, creams (and yes, natural herbs like DIM and Avena Sativa) can lower estrogen and release free testosterone, mimicking the body's needs at proper low dosages,

Because of this, cycling on and off, becomes almost unnecessary, when using these products. Testosterone injections (T-Cypionate, T-Enanthate, T-Propionate, and T-Sustanon) while commonly used in deficiency, may not be the best way to take testosterone for therapeutic reasons. Injections produce a large increase in blood T levels, for days 1-3, but after 7 days the decline can be quite rapid, even with a depot injection.

Many physicians in the past had generally administered one 200- 300 mg. dose of T every 21 days, but actually a 50 mg dose twice a week is more efficient therapeutically. Assuming all “other” systems are a go (which is to say, you have normal cholesterol, blood pressure, normal resting EKG and no signs of prostate problems), I, and many physicians, feel the best way to take testosterone, is via a cream, gel, or patch, with 50 to 100 mg per gram for men, and 1 to 6 milligrams per gram for women, if needed. The gel or cream can be compounded by a pharmacist with an absorption level approaching 15 to 30%. So the average absorption of 100 to 150 mg a week can be as effective as injection for many men. Ron Rothenberg MD, UC San Diego Professor, says that around half the men he sees for anti-aging use gel, or injection IM, and less than 10% use HCG to stimulate their own production of testosterone (HCG works best in men under age 50), and 5% use pellets (surgically implanted). I believe that a combination of these therapies will meet the most demanding man’s needs.

For example, creams yield more DHT which makes a man feel sexual and get erections with ease. The injections help to firm up the body with better muscle density and less estrogen conversion. The HCG tends to assist in the cosmetic issue of testicle size, because it increases the man’s own production of testosterone.

Testosterone used properly with knowledge of estrogen metabolism can actually improve prostate health. Studies are showing those with higher testosterone have lower rates of prostate cancer, those with higher estrogens have higher risk of prostate cancer. Testosterone can improve diabetes and strengthen arteries to reduce cholesterol and associated heart problems. The journal Neurology, implicates low testosterone levels in men with an increased risk of developing Alzheimer's disease. Another disadvantage of high dose testosterone injections (beside too much flux in steady T blood value), is that this practice, done too often, can increase the thickness of your blood (viscosity) because your hematocrit (measure of red blood cell count) and hemoglobin (the molecule that carries oxygen in the red blood cell) both increase.

"Synthetic Roids"

Reports are (believe it or not) some pro physique competitors are using upwards of 2,000-4,000 mg. of Testosterone every week.
Br>

This is of course quite dangerous. Such an individual could hopefully decrease the risk from what could happen (stroke or heart attack),with a blood donation, once or twice a year. To further offset problems these men should work out very hard and do aerobics for coronary flow and eat very low Trans fat. They should not drink alcohol or smoke. Moreover, they are going to have enormous shrinkage of their own testes and an acutely and chronically depressed pituitary-testicle loop, such that, if and when they discontinue said dosages, it may be a very long time (if ever again), that they will produce normal counts of sperm, that have proper motility and viscosity, sufficient to be able to cause conception. In other words your swimmer’s sink. Not only that, but your "boat" is unlikely to float, for a long time,
Now it should be noted that impotence is separate from sterility.

Impotency has been known to occur with the use of synthetic- Deca Durabolin, because it is chemically different than natural testosterone, and may leave chemicals in the body that are unnatural and counter productive to sexual function and good health. The oral steroid known as oxymethelone (one trade name is Anadrol-50), was developed specifically for Fanconi’s anemia. Colloquially, anemia is “iron-poor blood” due to low RBC count. Using Testosterone creams will negate increases in viscosity, since there’s rarely, any significant increase in RBC count. Overuse of synthetic testosterone (injected or some taken orally), or metabolically-produced excesses, can create excess estrogen in the male. In tissues sensitive to the process of estrogen conversion and deposition, it can manifest as localized and hardened fat deposits. One such condition is known gynecomastia. There are some drugs used to deal with this, but once the tissue significantly forms and hardens, surgery is the most likely solution.

Estrogen - Is This Natural Hormone Slowly Killing Us?

2007-10-13T09:43:00.000-07:00

Too much estrogen is a major problem for women and men and too many people have too much of it. Excess estrogen can accelerate aging, worsen prostate health, increase body fat and muscle atrophy, increase hair loss and cause sexual dysfunction. Women with excess non-metabolized estrogen are at greater risk for breast and uterine cancer, obesity and low sex drive.

In both men and woman, fat cells store large quantities of aromatase, an enzyme that creates estrogen. The higher your percentage of body fat, the more estrogen you may produce. This causes you to create more fat cells, which in turn, creates more estrogen! This cycle can spiral out of control.

In men, aromatase signals the pituitary gland and testes to secrete less luteinizing hormone (LH), thereby significantly slowing testosterone production. High levels of estrogen increases the production of a protein called Sex Hormone Binding Globulin (SHBG), which competes with testosterone receptor sites, literally rendering testosterone impotent. Estrogen also causes the liver to produce more of the carrier proteins that bind-up testosterone. Free, unbound testosterone is the only active form that can easily cross into the brain, muscles, sex organs and fat cells.

Testosterone Deficit

Free testosterone makes up only a very small part of total testosterone in men and women. Low levels of free testosterone in men increases body fat, reduces sex drive and may cause depression and erectile dysfunction. This becomes a vicious cycle too. Men have less energy and lower self-esteem. They then may get stressed, eat more, gain weight and have less interest in sex.

Early symptoms of aging in men, is called Andropause. Excessive levels of estrogen have been identified as the main culprit!
Estrogen excess ‘signals’ increased production of SHBG, causing further depletion in free testosterone. Excessive estrogen in males occurs with obesity, excessive alcohol use, smoking, lack of exercise and from exposure to non-bio-identical estrogens in the environment. Pesticides create a form of bad estrogen, concentrated in meats and dairy.

Doses of Bisophenol-A found in microwavable plastics, linings for metal food-and-beverage containers, plastic baby bottles (only glass is safe) leach into the water and blood of humans causing a form of insulin resistance that mimics estrogens. Either a high fat diet according to Nathan Pritikin, one of the great researchers of the twenty century I worked with in 1979 to 81 or miniscule amounts of plastic chemicals (usually considered safe by EPA standards) trigger allergic response, inflammation, and diabetes, according to Theron Randolph MD., author of An Alternate Approach to Allergies. These increases in synthetic estrogens have been shown to cause dangerous changes in the pancreas cells associated with diabetes. Diabetes has increased drastically in our country and worldwide. Diabetics tragically suffer from increased risk of stroke, heart attack, impotency, and amputated limbs.

Some studies suggest that hair loss and baldness may be associated with high-fat diets. High fat diets stimulate estrone, which is converted to bad estrogen. DHT (Di-hydroxytestosterone) can cause hair loss. However, testosterone actually can assist or enhance scalp hair, provided that estrogen levels are okay. DHT should comprise one-fourth to one-third of total androgen count.

Excess estrogen blocks testosterone receptors and DHT becomes dominant. Fatty tissue is loaded with aromatase enzymes that convert testosterone to estrogen. The best approach to combat estrogen dominance in both men and women is to exercise, improve diet and take nutritional supplements that decrease estrogen production.

Losing body fat reduces estrogen conversion. In men, symptoms of andropause recede, and in women, estrogen-dominant symptoms decrease.

Men — Reduce Your Estrogen

Over half of all men past the age of 50 have enlarged prostates. Early signals include hesitancy at the start of urination, increased frequency, dribbling and decreased force and flow of urination. Left untreated, enlarged prostates can lead to sexual dysfunction and impotency.

A University of California study found that impotency was mainly due to high estrogen. Another study elsewhere with 320 men who had been surgically treated for severely enlarged prostates, revealed higher estrogen levels and lower testosterone, than men with normal prostates.

In a Japanese study, men without prostate enlargement had higher levels of testosterone! Additionally, men whose prostates were enlarged had higher levels of estrogen. The scientists in this study concluded that non-metabolized estrogen is correlated with prostate size and volume.

Many urologists are treating patients with prostate disease by suppressing testosterone and increasing estrogen. The drugs that suppress estrogen tend to also reduce the beneficial forms of estrogen and are not doing enough to clear the bad forms of estrogens (16aOHE, 4OHE). In my opinion, metabolizing and clearing out extra estrogen should be the emphasis and can be done with natural phyto-chemical herbs, from vegetable extracts that target the bad estrogens, while restoring the good forms of estrogen and testosterone.

Diindolylmethane (DIM), derived from broccoli, cauliflower, Kale, Bok, Choy, Napa cabbage and Brussels sprouts, promotes beneficial estrogen metabolism. DIM increases ‘good’ estrogens, which then cause SHBG to bind, thereby improving levels of free testosterone all while dramatically decreasing ‘bad’ estrogen. DIM, along with Chrysin (from passion flower), (Passiflora incarnata), in liposomal cream, clears estrogen. It is especially useful for men on testosterone replacement therapy or women on estrogen replacement therapy.

DIM-Chrysin combinations lower prostate cancer risk by up to 41% in men. They also decrease the risk of breast cancer and cervical cancer, in women. Indole-3-carbinol (I3C) is another vegetable extract that is beneficial in estrogen metabolism. Indole-3-carbinol works best if there is sufficient hydrochloric acid in the stomach.

Calcium-D-Glucarate or its metabolite, D-Glucuronolactone, can help detoxify estrogens. Apples and other fresh fruits and vegetables, have small amounts. As a supplement, Calcium-D-Glucarate has positive effects on reducing cancer-producing by-products.

Diet and natural herbs, may prove safer and more cost-effective than some prescription drugs that block aromotase. Natural estrogen-clearing methods appear to cause less body inflammation and less free radical damage, reducing the toxic effects of estrone metabolites while preserving the benefits of estradiol and the ‘good’ 2-hydroxyestrone.

I encourage physicians to add these important substances to their patient’s diet and hormone regimens.

Whole Foods

A diet high in vegetables and fruit, with concentrated herb extracts, in combination with a brief, intense exercise program, can help you manage bad estrogen. Many of the special phyto-chemicals are found naturally in raw cruciferous vegetables, such as broccoli, kale, cabbage, Brussels sprouts, cauliflower, Bok, Choy, Napa cabbage, turnips, rutabaga, mustard and kohlrabi. However, up to 2-lbs. of raw cruciferous vegetables each day, are necessary to achieve the estrogen-clearing benefits. I suggest using a blender (not a juicer or juice extractor, as you want to retain healthy fiber) and combine raw cruciferous vegetables with some tasty high-fiber fruits, such as berries or pears. Vegetables, like bell peppers and fruit, rich in vitamin C, reduce the aromatase enzyme responsible for converting too much estrogen from testosterone. Use water rather than juice as your base, along with frozen fruit and vegetables, to give the drink a “smoothie” texture. A blender usually comes with a 48 to 60-ounce pitcher, which will provide nearly 2-4 pounds of raw vegetable material in your drink through your day.

Supplements

As suggested, most people will need to supplement their diets with concentrates from DIM (diindolylmethane), Chrysin, D-Glucuronolactone, and other important natural phyto-chemicals. Grapefruit and grapefruit juice should be avoided, as they may inhibit the liver's ability to break down estrogen. Supplements containing broccoli and cauliflower extracts can stimulate the metabolism of excess estrogen, while red grape skin extract and resveratrol, can improve liver P450 function, to help remove excess estrogen.
Di-methyl-glycine (DMG) is a methyl-group donor that helps detoxification. It assists the liver to clear harmful estrogens and lactic acid, after exercise. DMG has been reported to improve sexual function, erectile ability and to oxygenate blood to the genitals. Improved mental function and anti-aging benefits have also been reported with DMG.
Phyto-estrogens in soy and wild yams, is also worthy of consideration. Meat and animal products are correlated to an increased incidence of stroke and dementia. I believe that soy and vegetable products (instead of meat and animal products), are prudent!

DHT Studies

DHT needs to be in balance with testosterone. Dr. Edmond De Vroey, the founder of the Longevity Institute, has been using DHT gel for over 20 years to maintain prostate health by applying DHT topical gel. Applied directly to skin, DHT does not convert to estrogen. Instead, topically-applied DHT decreases estrogen levels.

Dr. Ron Rothenberg, Professor of Medicine at the University of California/San Diego, concurs with me, that the sexual and strength-enhancing benefits from DHT, is not as pronounced as testosterone, or testosterone combined with herbs that metabolize estrogen.

In a clinical study by Dr. Wang and colleagues, DHT improved total androgen levels, while significantly decreasing estradiol levels, within 14 days. Estradiol is considered the most dominant estrogen.

Dr. Eugene Shippen has conducted meta-reviews, indicating that testosterone and DHT can actually protect the prostate.

Dr. Schaison has shown that patients with decreased gonad function became more virile, developed more muscle mass and improved in sexual function, with DHT topical gel.

Using DHT Gel over a 2 year period, Dr. De Lignieres reported men, age 55 to 70, improved sexual function and decreased prostate size by an average of 15%.

DHT requires a prescription and is usually only obtained in Europe, however we use an all natural cream with bioidentical hormones as applied under the scrotum, used in the morning after you shower. The well known fact is that scrotal tissue has enzymes in the skin that can increase DHT production in the presents of androgens. This cream with natural androgens allows rapid absorption of testosterone to youthful levels and conversion to DHT to help reduce estrogens.

As with all androgen replacement therapies, signs of excessive DHT levels, such as oily skin, acne, excess hair growth, aggressiveness, or too heightened sexuality, need to be monitored.

A University of Southern California study found that 8 out of 27 men taking Finasteride for enlarged prostate, developed tumors within one year, despite the drug lowering DHT by 67%. It is my view that unidentified elevated levels of estrogen in the prostate could be the problem, not DHT. While Finasteride lowers DHT, it can cause impotency. In contrast, beta sitosterol in saw palmetto may be more effective to restore urine flow, without impotency. Beta Sitosterol improves metabolism of DHT and androgen receptor binding, while Finasteride does not. Even though Finasteride can reduce DHT in the prostate up to 80%, it only decreases the prostate size by about 20%. Some 60-65% of men get no improvement with Finasteride! Over 5% of Finasteride users suffer decreased libido, impotence, and ejaculatory disorders.

It is important to note that clearing all estrogens from adult men is not good! The aim of an estrogen reduction program is to achieve optimal levels for total male hormonal balance. When “bad” estrogens are elevated, they do not permit the hormones of youth, your good estrogens, testosterone, human growth hormone, DHEA, etc., to be at proper levels, thus potentially leading to disease and premature aging, and disability.

Blending Tips and Tricks For Maintaining an Effective Smoothie Diet

2007-10-11T14:44:00.001-07:00

Choosing the best blender for your budget

Again, when making a whole food Health Smoothie, DO NOT use a juicer, use a BLENDER! The best blender to use for a whole food Smoothie is a Vitamix, Bosch or K-tech. They are high-quality blenders and they come with a large container that can hold up to 60 ounces. They have a strong motor that lasts for years and save time because they quickly liquefy the mixture of vegetables, hard carrots, fruit and supplements. A high-power blender has a strong enough motor to actually blend and retain the fiber.
These high-quality blenders are investments in the $430 range, and the savings created by using a blender instead of a juicer are enormous when you consider the fact that no food volume is wasted, not to mention the decrease in health care costs which will be created by your new levels of health and energy.

Affordable and powerful blenders

You may also buy a simple blender at WalMart or most drug stores for between $39 and $89. These blenders work fine, provided they have a motor with at least 425-watts or more, so that they are strong enough to blend vegetables. A blender with a weak motor may not survive daily whole food Smoothies, so it's best to get a blender that has at least a 425-watt motor. Also, most of these less expensive units come with a container that is 40 oz instead of 60 oz. If the blender has a small pitcher (less than 40 oz), you may have to blend two batches instead of one. Some units such as Hamilton Beach come with a two-year limited warrantee. At that price, even if the blender breaks, it can be replaced for a minor cost. Hamilton Beach also has an 800 number and a website, www.hamiltonbeach.com, where you can order a larger container of up to 60 oz for only $15 dollars extra.

I use an Oster or a Hamilton Beach for my travel blender. There are various blenders that are probably just as good, as long as they have a strong motor. I take my less expensive blender with me on the road and it fits in the trunk of my car or in my suitcase when I travel.

Transporting your Slim Smoothie

The transport container can be a two quart container with a lid that can be opened and closed as you drink or sip. It does take time to consume the 32 to 60 ounces of blended slim smoothie, so you need a good container that is spill proof. In the past, I have accidentally spilled an entire blended drink from an open container – as you can imagine, this was a mess that took a lot of effort to clean up. A good container or large straw will make it easy to drink the entire amount everyday. You can walk around in the morning getting ready for work and even take the container with you in the car on the way to work. This will allow you enough time to consume sufficient quantities of drink necessary to get the full benefits from blending.
The moment you decide to blend on a regular basis you will notice a big difference in your health and energy. The days you forget to blend you may notice less energy, stiffer joints and deeper wrinkles in the face due to dehydration. I have convinced thousands of people to start blending instead of juicing and every one of them has noticed a huge difference within nine days.

Tips for fast and efficient blending

You must have a blended drink on a daily basis to gain the maximum benefits from the whole foods. I know you can be successful if you follow these steps:

• Set your blender on the kitchen counter top, ready to use at all times rather than stored in a cabinet where you may forget about it. Human nature is such that if you see the blender ready to go, it is more likely that you will use it.

• Have a cutting board ready for some minor preparation to cut, remove stems and seeds or clean vegetables and fruit.

• Use sufficient water, soy or rice milk and ice in the drink so the consistency comes out smooth. The water line should come up to over half or three fourths of the blender line for proper blending of all the harder chunks of vegetables.

• The moment you pour out the blended concoction, immediately rinse the blender and any cutting utensils with fresh, hot water. Vegetables, fruit and sprouts easily rinse with water down the disposal after blending. However, if you wait to clean the blender pitcher later with the rest of the dishes, the thick, almost caked-on layer of vegetable matter will be much harder to clean. The common excuse of not wanting to “do the dishes” may give you a false reason to not want to blend again.

The whole process from putting vegetables, fruit and water in the blender to pouring out the completed drink, to rinsing the pitcher and utensils can be done in less than eight minutes - the time you would usually take to brew some coffee in the morning. If you don’t have time to blend in the morning, then blend in the afternoon or evening. The key is that you do it on a daily basis to gain the youth-extending benefits of fat loss, increased energy and total body hydration.

Anti-Aging Breakfast Smoothie

2007-10-11T14:38:00.000-07:00

What you eat will have an enormous impact on your overall health and longevity.

It is important to look at food as more than just a way to satiate our cravings.

Food is medicine.

What you eat will have an enormous impact on your overall health and longevity.

Nearly all of our clients include one blended drink of a variety of vegetables and fruit every day.

My Typical Breakfast Smoothie

Handful of Napa cabbage (Chinese cabbage) - I tear off leaves rather than cut so the oxidation of browning of the veggie doesn’t happen, lasting longer in the refrigerator.

One small baby bok Choy or one large leaf and stem from large bok Choy

Carrot-1

Cherries frozen, raspberries, watermelon fresh or frozen

squash (zucchini or yellow) one, low on scale of allergy issues, well tolerated by most, with little taste to be challenged with as compared to broccoli which on only use up to one florets off since too strong in taste for most.

Water liter- 12 to 16 oz

Drink 48 to 60 oz in hour or two. That is typical breakfast

Blend with added supplements if desired (I often break open capsules into my drink so I don’t have to swallow so many) and I don’t have to consume the capsule just the content)

I thoroughly advocate the avoidance of "Atkins type Food",(this is backed by years of medical journal research). One important reason, (One of many) is the need to avoid foods that cause dehydration such as meat and dairy products. The reason high-protein meat and dairy foods are so dehydrating is because so much water (eight times more than plant foods and carbohydrates) is required to digest and detoxify all the waste by-products (such as ammonia and uric acid). Dry complex carbohydrates such as whole grains are not as bad as meats and dairy because the complex carbohydrates require very little water for digestion. Water-rich foods already have water contained in the plant cell walls and therefore contribute, instead of take away from total body water levels.
