“Men produce the
acidic hormones testosterone and androsterone. These are aggressive-type
hormones. They effect many different cellular changes from the breakdown
of tissue to the increased growth of tissue … all types of tissue, from hair
(pubic, facial, etc.) to muscle tissue. These hormones affect sexual behavior,
increase blood flow and cause erections. These acid-type hormones in men
and women are naturally counterbalanced by the body with the production of
progesterone and other steroids, which are anti-inflammatory and produced
in the adrenal glands. When these acid-type hormones are over-produced, or
not balanced by steroids, they can cause inflammation in tissues.”
Be Careful! Don’t Overuse
