Too many people think that MEN only make TESTOSTERONE, and WOMEN only make ESTROGENS. Or maybe that MEN make MEN-HORMONES, while WOMEN make WOMEN HORMONES.
(…kind of the idea that MEN ARE FROM MARS, and WOMEN ARE FROM VENUS)
I’m here to tell you that men and women make the exact same hormones, except that men make MORE testosterone AND the YOUTH-hormone DHEA, while women make MORE estrogens and progesterone. For the rest it’s all pretty much the same.
Hormone production is a natural and very important part of life; I would even say they are “essential.”
Having them finely tuned throughout life will bring us many benefits of good health in Body, Mind, and Spirit.
However, during the last 50 years or so, pharmaceutical companies, food producers, chemical companies, and even the cosmetics industry, have created synthetic compounds that have become severe hormone disrupters to all life on earth.
Men, women, even children have become subjects of their experimentations, and eventually… all-of-life could become collateral damage!
Last time I mentioned plastics, personal electronics, chem-trails, and even the use of herbicides and pesticides that have negatively affected our environment this last half century.
In my next Health Pearl, I’ll highlight the Birth Control Pill.
A lot of information for a great discussion…DON’T YOU THINK?
