For many sufferers, getting rid of man boobs is still something of a dream. The trouble with man boobs is that they don’t seem to respond to exercise or dieting very well. As you probably know, man boobs are caused by an excess of estrogen in the blood stream.
Natural hormones
Whether we are a man or a woman, our bodies naturally produce both the male sex hormone, testosterone and the female one, estrogen. What you may not know is that during the early weeks of our development within our mother’s womb, we are all physiologically female. It is only when the y chromosome, that male embryos carry, triggers the production of testosterone and begins the development of male characteristics such as male genitals, enlarged larynx and broadening of the shoulders.
Hangover
This explains why getting rid of man boobs is so difficult. Our bodies, whether we are male or female, contain cells (in the chest area) that are programmed to respond to the presence of estrogen. They are a hangover, if you like, of the time in our very early development when we were female. They respond by becoming epithelial lactating cells. In women of course, these are the cells that produce milk for infants during breast feeding. In males, they don’t do very much, they just sit there causing man boobs.
Misery And Distress
Now, if the level of estrogen in our blood stream is a little higher than normal, or, if the cells to which I referred are slightly more responsive to estrogen than normal, then they will begin to enlarge in response to its presence. In women, of course, this is perfectly normal but in men it just causes misery and distress. Because it makes us feel less of a man.
So, if getting rid of man boobs is your dream too there are a number of things you can do: 1. Specially targeted exercises to reduce the amount of fat on your chest. 2. A low fat diet to stop fat accumulating there 3. Hormone management – reducing estrogen levels can help to reduce breast swelling.
The best way to access the specialized information you need to implement the above is by getting yourself one of the special man boobs programs that you can download from the internet, they are inexpensive, they’re written by professionals who specialize in this problem and, providing you make the effort, they definitely do work.
