THE HORMONAL BALANCING ACT
Balanced hormones can be the key to improving overall health and wellbeing, and peptides can help in restoring this balance.
Believe it or not, testosterone plays a vital role in hormone balance for both men and women. This balance facilitates overall wellbeing, and can be the key to unlocking optimal muscle development and fat loss, among other benefits. Estrogen and testosterone sit at either end of the hormone balance scale. If testosterone levels drop, as it often does in ageing men, issues such as low libido, depression, decreased cognitive ability, lethargy, osteoporosis and loss of muscle mass and strength may ensue.

THE BENEFITS OF
BALANCED TESTOSTERONE LEVELS
Peptides can play a role in restoring the body’s important hormone balance. Testosterone often the one out of balance, therefore when levels are brought back up to normal a host of benefits can ensue.
1.
LESS FAT, MORE MUSCLE
For males, testosterone is essential in building lean muscle mass as it increases levels of growth hormone. Testosterone also plays a role in fat metabolism, meaning lowered levels of this hormone can result in increased body fat. This facilitates an ideal situation where fat is reduced and muscle is increased.
2.
LIVE LONGER
Studies have shown multiple links between testosterone deficiency and increased all-cause and cardiovascular mortality. Therefore, restoring this hormonal balance may improve cardiovascular risk factors, facilitating decreased mortality. A large number of studies over the past years have demonstrated this, indicating that hormonal balance is associated with sound cardiovascular health.
3.
BETTER LIBIDO & SEXUAL FUNCTION
Testosterone levels rise naturally with sexual arousal and activity. Yet as we age, overall levels decline which often causes a decreased libido and erectile issues. Regaining a healthy hormonal balance can feel like winding back the clock to your prime!
4.
IMPROVED MOOD
Common symptoms linked to low testosterone include depression, fatigue, anxiety, and irritability. Naturally restoring testosterone balance can help improve mood and get you back to feeling like yourself.
THE MYTHS
ONLY MEN HAVE TESTOSTERONE
No, testosterone is not a hormone that’s exclusive to males. Females produce testosterone in the ovaries and adrenal gland, as one of their resident several androgens (male sex hormones). Benefits of testosterone balance in women include optimal ovarian function, bone strength and sexual behaviour. Multiple studies also suggest a woman’s healthy androgen levels correlate with normal brain function. Testosterone is therefore important for everyone’s general wellbeing.
As with men, testosterone production declines with age in women, especially during menopause.
LOW TESTOSTERONE ONLY IMPACTS SEX DRIVE
Low testosterone does impact sex drive, but that’s not the only effect. Studies support that sexual dysfunction is the most specific symptom associated with low testosterone in men. Although the most prominent effect, testosterone imbalance is also associated with: unfavourable lipid profiles and endothelial dysfunction, vascular stiffness, hypertension and atherosclerosis, increased cardiovascular risk and increased risk of mortality.
TESTOSTERONE PRODUCTION DECLINES WITH AGE
A characteristic of both male and female ageing is a decline in circulating testosterone.
Studies have recently suggested that an age-related decline in testosterone levels is not inevitable, but is largely explained by changes in health status, particularly obesity and depression. Essentially, age plays a big role in low testosterone levels so it’s crucial to maintain these healthy levels as you get older. For females it’s easier to prepare for, as drops in testosterone often occur with menopause. Males however, can expect gradual declines anywhere from 30-40 years and onwards.
