Aromastat
Herbal blend designed to optimize natural testosterone levels and maintain lean muscle mass.
Herbal blend designed to optimize natural testosterone levels and maintain lean muscle mass in both men and women.
From birth until you turn 30, your muscles continue to grow bigger and stronger. But at some point in your 30s, you will begin to lose muscle mass, strength and function, a condition known as sarcopenia. Sedentary people will lose 3% to 5% of their muscle mass per decade after the age of 30. Normally, adults who are sedentary beyond the age of 50 can expect a loss of muscle mass of up to a half pound per year. Women experience sarcopenia at a 150% greater rate than men, which is especially liable to accelerate at menopause.
Dr. Peter D'Adamo:
"A well-known sailing aphorism is that 'it is easier to stay dry, than it is to get dry.' In other words, don't wait until the seas roughen and the rain comes before you put on your foul weather gear. "
There seems to be no single cause for muscle loss as we age. Studies have identified certain environmental factors, disease triggers and problems with the mitochondria of our cells. The strongest evidence seems to implicate age-related hormonal changes in the body, a decrease in the ability to turn protein into energy, and a lack of physical activity.
So what can we do to slow the onset or progression of sarcopenia?
Dr. Peter D'Adamo:
"Life is defined by the choices we make. If we only paid half as much attention to sarcopenia as we do to osteopenia and osteoporosis, we'd have a fitter, more vital population, well positioned to have a 'health span' well into their 90s. "
The two best-studied ways of slowing (and in many instances reversing) sarcopenia are exercise (resistance training) and a good diet (with adequate protein). Regardless of a person’s age, they can experience significant strength improvement with a progressive resistance exercise program even into their eighth and ninth decades of life. Combining this with a diet tailored to your genetics by blood type is a surefire way to stay strong throughout all stages of your life.
However, some of us may need an additional boost to ensure muscle growth and maintenance. That's when our Aromsastat formula comes into play.
Aromastat is an all-natural blend of herbs shown in clinical studies to help balance the enzyme aromatase. Aromatase is an enzyme found in the liver that converts testosterone into estradiol and androstenedione into estrone. Thus, its primary action is to convert steroid hormones into estrogen-class hormones. The main effect of Aromastat is to help our body maintain the proper levels of testosterone, a hormone of concern and significance to both men and women. In men especially aromatase levels tend to increase with age, often converting what little testosterone is left into estrogens.
Aromastat contains:
| AGENT | ROLE | ACTIONS |
| Indole-3-Carbinols | Prime Mover | This compound, found in cruciferous vegetables, helps the body effectively metabolize estrogens |
| Chrysin | Prime Mover | Found in the herb Passiflora incarnata, the flavone chrysin helps naturally balance aromatase levels |
| Apigenin | Prime Mover | Found in many species of Chamomile, the flavone apigenin helps naturally balance aromatase levels |
| Isoflavones | Synergist | These natural antioxidants help balance and optimize aromatase function |
| Curcumin | Synergist | The compound, found in turmeric, is an anti-oxidant that helps maintain proper muscle mass. |
Dr. Peter D'Adamo:
"Regardless of gender, maintaining a healthy testosterone balance is a critical part of the aging process and taking Aromastat may be beneficial to those who want to begin or maintain a weight-bearing exercise program to increase lean muscle mass and decrease body fat."
