To Benefit from a Functional Mushroom, You Need to Know What You’re Getting.

Not all fungal products are equal. Functional "mushroom" products generally contain EITHER the mushroom (fruiting body) OR the mycelium (vegetative body). Notice the quotations around the word "mushroom."

Even though mushrooms and mycelium are two very distinct and different parts of these fungal organisms, some supplement purveyors label their products as containing mushrooms when in fact, they contain only grain, and the mycelium that grows on it. Both the scientific research and respected practitioners in the field confirm that the functional value is higher when using the mushroom, rather than the mycelium. Especially if it’s a mycelium fermented grain product, which ends up being mostly grain.

We have a great episode planned and will focus on Men’s Health with a highlight on Hormones. Men are just as vulnerable as Women to having hormonal imbalances or even hormonal issues, but it is just not talked about enough. Today we will talk about who, what, when and where.

Talking Points:

-Why do men need testosterone?

Testosterone is a hormone that plays a vital role in men’s health. Low or deficient levels are associated with fatigue, weight gain, muscle and bone mass loss, low libido, depression, impotence, poor memory, and other symptoms.
There are many reasons why men can have low testosterone.

-How common is Low Testosterone?
Low or deficient testosterone in males is problematic in America. According to the Cleveland Clinic, low testosterone affects almost 40% of men aged 45 and older! Testosterone deficiency negatively affects a man’s quality of life and is a known risk factor for early death. Testosterone levels are at their highest levels by early adulthood and then decrease by 1% to 2% a year beginning in the 40’s.

-What causes Low Testosterone?

I find that testosterone deficiency or sub-optimal testosterone levels are common in both men and women. If your testosterone levels are low, then you may experience:

Fatigue
Low libido
Poor memory and concentration
Loss of muscle mass
Loss of bone mass
Increased body fat
Poor exercise recovery
Elevated cholesterol levels
Depression
Decreased resistance to stress
Erectile Dysfunction (men)
Increased heart disease risk

-Are there certain foods that can raise or lower Testosterone?

-Estrogen Dominance in Men

-Let’s move on and talk about the Prostate. What is Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH?

-ROOT CAUSES
-How Common
-Can it lead to Hormone Imbalance?
-ED and Low Libido
-Bladder and urinary tract issues?


-Any Supportive Supplements for Men dealing with lower Testosterone levels?
There are not many supplements proven to increase men’s testosterone levels. However, a unique extract of the ayurvedic herb known as ashwagandha has been shown in several studies to elevate male testosterone levels.
The ashwagandha extract known as KSM-66 was shown in a recent study to significantly increase blood testosterone levels and sexual well-being. The study involved fifty participants with low sexual desire who were given KSM-66 at a dose of 600 mg or placebo daily. Outcomes were measured with a questionnaire and blood testosterone levels at the beginning and end of the 8-week study. Compared to the placebo, the KSM-66 demonstrated significant benefits.
The ashwagandha extract in this study is the same one I use in Testosterone Health (which has 675 mg of KSM-66 per serving). This supplemental approach gives men the potential to improve their libido and testosterone levels without prescription testosterone.

-Does Saw Palmetto Really Help the Prostate?

In this Episode we shared why Sea vegetables are the most nutritionally dense plants on the planet and the most abundant source of vitamins and minerals in the plant kingdom. We highlight Anti-aging, Energy, and daily nutrition.

To help us do the heavy lifting we have invited Greg Good, the CEO and Founder of FarmaSea and Sea Veg Whole Food Seaweed supplement.

Sea vegetables are packed with protein, iodine, fiber and vitamins A, B, C and E in amounts that are 10 to 20 times higher than land vegetables, while some sea vegetables contain more calcium than milk. Sea lettuce has 25 times the iron found in beef. Which is great for people who can’t have beef or prefer not to.

An 8-week study of 60 Japanese people revealed that fucoxanthin, a substance in brown seaweed, may help improve blood sugar control.

Another substance in seaweed called alginate prevented blood sugar spikes in animals after they were fed a high-sugar meal. It’s thought that alginate may reduce the absorption of sugar into the bloodstream.

A 2023 meta-analysis Trusted Source found that brown seaweed consumption significantly improved blood glucose, glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c), and Homeostatic Model Assessment of Insulin Resistance (HOMA-IR).

Anyone who wants help to feel more natural energy, take a preventative approach to their health, manage the effects of aging, and look to bridge the nutritional gaps currently they’re not getting in their daily diet. Check out Superfoodofthesea.com or at 855-627-9929 to ensure that you get the high quality of pure Sea Veg products.

For Forever Young Listeners for a limited time, you can get 3 bottles of the (90) original Sea veg for $60. Just use the code FY3460 (This is for first time orders only).
