HOW TESTOSTERONE AND CHOLESTEROL ARE CONNECTED

Testosterone: The Elixir of Manhood is a sex hormone made in large amounts in the testes of men and in smaller amounts in women’s ovaries while Cholesterol is the part of every cell’s outer membrane, responsible for its fluid nature and helping determine which molecules can enter the cell. To understand the connection between these two it’s important to know them individually first.

  1. CHEMFORCE.IN HOW TESTOSTERONE AND CHOLESTEROL ARE CONNECTED? Testosterone: The Elixir of Manhood is a sex hormone made in large amounts in the testes of men and in smaller amounts in women’s ovaries while Cholesterol is the part of every cell’s outer membrane, responsible for its fluid nature and helping determine which molecules can enter the cell. To understand the connection between these two it’s important to know them individually first. What is Cholesterol? Cholesterol is a type of fat or lipid found in the bloodstream. We need some cholesterol for healthy cell productions. It is present in all of our cells, being especially present in the membrane where it gives the cells the ability to send messages between each other. This lipid molecule has several crucial roles all around the body, and cholesterol is so important that if you’re not getting enough from your diet; your liver will synthesize it to keep you alive. Cholesterol is a precursor for all sex hormones and this also includes the principal male hormone i.e. testosterone. WWW.CHEMFORCE.IN

  2. CHEMFORCE.IN Cholesterol is of two types: 1.Low density lipoprotein, or LDL, is called “bad” cholesterol because its high levels can deposit potentially dangerous fats in the blood vessels causing heart disease e. arthrosclerosis. 2.High density lipoprotein, or HDL, is called “good” cholesterol because it carries excess blood cholesterol from blood vessels back to the liver for removal. It is protective in nature. What is testosterone? Testosterone is a sex hormone made in large amounts in the testes of men and in smaller amounts in women’s ovaries. It stimulates sperm production and sexual function in men and may support a normal libido in women. WWW.CHEMFORCE.IN

  3. CHEMFORCE.IN Testosterone is a type of androgen produced primarily by the testes/testicles in cells called the Leydig cells. Without adequate testosterone, men are infertile. This is because the process of spermatogenesis (development of mature sperm) requires testosterone. In men, testosterone is thought to regulate a number of functions in addition to sperm production. These include: Libido Bone mass Fat distribution Muscle size and strength Red blood cell production The two most commonly known effects of testosterone are sexual virility and increased muscle mass – so this means that lower testosterone can also lead to sexual dysfunction and/or lowered muscle mass (with a corresponding increase in body fat). But low testosterone can also manifest as depression, low bone mineral density, low energy and anemia. The Two Essential Compounds – The Two Way Connection: Now you probably know that testosterone is a male sex hormone and cholesterol is a substance that travels in your blood. But you may be unaware that the two compounds are chemically related because they share a similar chemical structure. Understanding how the two compounds relate to each other is an area of current research with potential implications for maintaining good health. HOW CHOLESTEROL LEVELS AFFECT TESTOSTERONE? Cholesterol is a precursor for all your sex hormones and this includes the principal male hormone: testosterone. WWW.CHEMFORCE.IN

  4. CHEMFORCE.IN The final part of the whole testosterone synthesis is simply when luteinizing hormone (LH) triggers the testicular leydig cells to convert cholesterol into testosterone. Meaning that cholesterol, the actual lipid molecule, is like pre-testosterone. And it comes not as a surprise that several studies have found out how increased cholesterol intake correlates with elevated testosterone production. HOW TESTOSTERONE LEVELS AFFECT CHOLESTEROL? Testosterone levels influence the amount and type of cholesterol your body produces. Testosterone therapy is usually given for a condition known as hypogonadism. Testosterone levels start to decline in men after age 30, but the decline is gradual. That decrease in testosterone is the second reason a man may be given testosterone therapy. Some men want to make up for the lost muscle mass and sex drive that results from this natural decrease in testosterone. WWW.CHEMFORCE.IN

  5. CHEMFORCE.IN Scientists have observed that men who take testosterone medications may have decreases in their HDL levels. HDL is GOOD cholesterol and if it decreases, it poses a great risk for Cardiac diseases. However the effect of testosterone on HDL cholesterol appears to vary depending on the person. Age may be a factor. The type or dose of testosterone medication may also influence its effect on cholesterol. Research suggests that extra testosterone might affect blood levels of total cholesterol and HDL. For example, a study published in the March 2012 issue of “Substance Abuse Treatment, Prevention and Policy” reported that a single dose of extra testosterone in male subjects caused an increase in both total cholesterol and the liver enzyme that makes cholesterol. A review published in the September 2005 issue of “Clinical Endocrinology (Oxford)” concluded that testosterone might reduce HDL in some middle-aged men and increase LDL. A buildup of too much LDL cholesterol, however, leads to the formation of plaques in the arteries. This is known as atherosclerosis. When a person has atherosclerosis, the excess plaque can narrow the arteries enough to stop blood flow. When that happens in an artery of the heart called a “coronary artery” the result is a heart attack. CONCLUSION WWW.CHEMFORCE.IN

  6. CHEMFORCE.IN By using a natural testosterone supplement, you can enjoy all of the positive benefits that you would experience if you underwent testosterone replacement therapy. The major benefit of using a natural testosterone supplement is that you would not expose yourself to some of the potentially dangerous side-effects like increased LDL levels and decreased HDL levels associated with testosterone replacement therapy. You can expect to experience incredible energy levels, enhanced libido, firmer erections, an increased ability to maintain concentration, more drive, less body fat and much improved lean muscle mass, amongst other things. CHEMFORCE is a natural and promising dietary supplement comprising Furosap® containing Protodioscin as the major fraction. It is reported to improve sperm count, sperm morphology and has a protective effect on male reproductive system. It also helps to increase the level of testosterone. Importantly, regular use of Protodioscin has been shown to increase the duration of penile erection and improve ejaculation in males. For more details please visit :WWW.CHEMFORCE.IN WWW.CHEMFORCE.IN
