"A host of common chemicals is feminizing males of every class of vertebrate animals, from fish to mammals, including people. Many have been identified as 'endocrine disruptors' or gender-benders because they interfere with hormones. Communities heavily polluted with gender-benders in Canada, Russia, and Italy have given birth to twice as many girls as boys, which may offer a clue to the mysterious shift in sex ratios worldwide. And a study at Rotterdam's Erasmus University showed that boys whose mothers had been exposed to PCBs grew up wanting to play with dolls and tea sets rather than with traditionally male toys. It also follows hard on the heels of new American research which shows that baby boys born to women exposed to widespread chemicals in pregnancy are born with smaller penises and feminized genitals. It is calculated that 250,000 babies who would have been boys have been born as girls instead in the US and Japan alone. And sperm counts are dropping precipitously. Studies in more than 20 countries have shown that they have dropped from 150 million per milliliter of sperm fluid to 60 million over 50 years."
Low testosterone affects a third of young men with type 2 diabetes
New research has revealed that approximately one third of men aged 18-35 with type 2 diabetes have low testosterone levels.
Dr.
Paresh Dandona and colleagues from the State University of New York at
Buffalo measured circulating testosterone levels in 38 men with type 1 diabetes and 24 men with type 2 diabetes. Results showed that testosterone levels were significantly lower in participants with type 2 diabetes than they were in men with type 1 diabetes. 33% of participants with type 2 diabetes were
found to have low testosterone levels, whilst 58% had testosterone
levels that were below normal for their age. In comparison, just 8%
type 1 diabetic patients had testosterone levels below the lower limit
of normal.
L-Carnitine: Improves Cognitive Function in Centenarians
L-Carnitine reduces physical and mental fatigue, improves cognitive
function in centenarians
A report published in the December, 2007 issue of the American
Journal of Clinical Nutrition described the results of a study
conducted by Italian researchers which found a positive effect for L-carnitine
(levo-carnitine) on energy levels and cognitive function in individuals 100
years of age and older. The age-related decline in L-carnitine, which plays a
role in cellular energy metabolism, could be involved in the fatigue
experienced by many older individuals.
"Wherever flaxseed becomes a regular food item among the people, there
will be better health", said Mahatma Gandhi. He was right. The true
nature of flax as a health food has been known for centuries. In the
8th Century, Charlemagne considered flax so essential for health that
he actually passed laws requiring its use. Flax was one of the original
medicines, used by Hippocrates himself.

Research suggests a direct link between deep sleep and the ageing process. Not getting enough deep sleep may speed up the ageing process, a study has suggested.
PASADENA, CA--(Marketwire - June 26, 2008) - Production of human growth hormone, a decline in which may accelerate aging, is significantly reduced when deep sleep is inadequate, according to a recent study. Although men do have sleep problems, they are far more prevalent in women. In fact, the average woman sleeps less than 6.5 hours per night during the entire work week. Feelgoodforlife.com offers tips on how to improve women's health by resolving sleep issues with nutritional supplements.
I am an adult male and became fascinated with HGH in 2003 by a twist of fate.It occurred after I met one of my neighbors and became friends with him, not to mention he later got me a job teaching part time at one of the universities where he was working!
My friend, Dr. W, is a University Professor who has a resume spanning over 40 years teaching at prestigious universities, all over the world. What caught me off guard was the fact Dr. W claimed he was in his mid 60’s, but didn’t look even close.He wouldn’t tell me his exact age, yet he had the energy, a lust for life, and the vitality of an athletic man in his early 30’s.I found it strange, even bizarre, as he honestly didn’t look a day older than 37.
