Detoxification for Men’s Health- Supporting The Liver, Gallbladder and Gut
🍒
The body is designed to be in constant state of “detoxification” as a means to maintain balance So it’s a given that to create hormonal balance, we need to create balance within the body as a whole.
🔻
One of the key players in keeping balance within the body in regards to detoxication is the liver. The liver plays many roles within the body, and one of its primary functions is to keep hormonal balance in check. It does so in three phases which involve the gallbladder and the gut.
🔻
Where the liver becomes super relevant in the testosterone conversation, is primarily its involvement in oestrogen metabolism. The majority of oestrogen in both men and women is processed by the liver. If the liver’s detoxification pathways are inefficient or burdened by a toxic load, excess oestrogen will have a hard time exiting the body via its excretion processes (you know, those which begin in the liver and end in the gut and faeces). Excess oestrogen, as we’ve explored above, is not beneficial to male physiology and been associated with a higher incidence of erectile dysfunction.
🔻
The liver is also involved in the homeostasis (balance) of lipids (fats), glucose and cholesterol, factors integral to hormone health. This busy organ has a role in many of the enzymatic conversions that allow the body’s hormonal cascades to dance with ease and precision.
🔻
Our favourite herbs and supplements for general liver support include:
🔻
SuperFeast Schizandra, globe artichoke, st mary’s thistle, turmeric, green tea, rosemary, SuperFeast MSM (mineral) etc
Binders such as charcoal, chlorella, zeolite and clays assist the process of elimination through the gut. We recommend taking binders before bed in a tall glass of water.
🔻
Sometimes when the Yang Jing herbs we’ve been talking about aren’t having the epic results we want, it could be from excess oestrogen. In this instance we stop drinking out of plastic water bottles (plastic oestrogens), and detox with schizandra, MSM and DIM.
