Grumpy Old Man Syndrome (aka Andropause) |
 |
 |
 |
 Written By: Jill Hillhouse BPHE, RNCP
The term andropause first appeared in the medical literature in the early 1950s and is commonly defined as the natural decline of male hormone levels, primarily testosterone, which can start for some men as early as in their 30s. Testosterone levels may be one of the most important indicators of health in men. Its production increases rapidly at the onset of puberty with the majority of testosterone being produced by the testes and a much smaller amount by the adrenal glands. When it is abundant, testosterone provides the foundation for youthful energy and stamina, abundant virility, increased bone mass and a naturally lean body. But as testosterone levels decline, things can change seemingly overnight: the hair recedes, energy levels go down, muscles appear to turn to fat, the “beer belly” appears and erections can become problematic. This slippery slope starts to happen in the 30s and as they age, men can lose about 1 percent of their testosterone each year or 10 percent per decade.

The foods we eat can be harmful – or healing. How your diet can help to ease pain aggravated by inflammation.
These days, ‘diet’ means more than simply weight gain or loss. Far beyond the adding or subtracting of pounds on the bathroom scale, our diet can help to maintain good health and protect against chronic disease.
