- • Sperm counts have dropped 70%
- • Testosterone levels have dropped 50% If you want to AVOID these massive declines…
Avoid these 10 things:
10. Non-Stick Cookware. Perfluorinated Compounds are in non-stick cookware. These compounds can disrupt endocrine function and lower testosterone levels.
9. Processed Foods. Additives & Preservatives: Many processed foods contain chemicals that disrupt endocrine function. Trans Fats: Trans fats harm sperm quality & testosterone levels.
8. Household Cleaners. Phthalates are found in many household cleaning products. These chemicals can disrupt endocrine function. Volatile Organic Compounds are released by many cleaning products & have harmful effects on multiple different hormone levels.
7. Electronic Devices Exposure to EMFs from devices like: • Laptops • Cell phones • Wi-Fi routers can potentially affect your hormone levels & sperm quality.
6. Personal Care Products. Preservatives used in personal care products can mimic estrogen & disrupt hormonal balance. Triclosan is an antibacterial agent found in soaps & toothpaste that can interfere with hormone function. Opt for the natural versions of these products.
5. Pesticides & Herbicides. Atrazine & Glyphosate are widely used herbicides that have been shown to disrupt endocrine function & lower testosterone.
4. Plastic Containers. Phthalates & BPA are used in many plastic containers & packaging. These chemicals can leach onto food & beverages & disrupt your hormonal balance.
3. Water Contaminants. Contaminants such as: • Lead • Mercury • Cadmium can interfere with reproductive health & lower testosterone levels. Opt for a high-quality water filter or reverse osmosis machine.
2. Alcohol. Heavy alcohol consumption damages the testes & impairs testosterone production. Alcohol also disrupts the hormonal balance necessary for sperm production.
1. Excess body fat. High levels of body fat (particularly around the abdomen) can lead to increased conversion of testosterone to estrogen… Which reduces overall testosterone levels.
