Today we're going to talk about the consequences of high estrogen in men and what you can do if you're a man who has have too much estrogen.
Consequences of high estrogen in men:
1. It can increase the risk of stroke
• Excess estrogen can increase the risk of blood clots that can lead to stroke.
2. Too much estrogen can be dangerous to the cardiovascular system
• Estrogen (estradiol) is typically at higher levels when someone has a heart attack, and when men have atherosclerosis.
3. Estrogen dominance can cause an enlarged prostate
• Estrogen is an anabolic hormone. It grows things.
What causes high estrogen in men? It could potentially be because of:
• Soy products
• Endocrine disrupters
• Dairy
• Too much aromatase (This could be the #1 reason, and it’s likely because of belly fat)
What to do:
• DIM
• Stinging nettle root
• Cruciferous vegetables
• Reduce insulin (do healthy keto and intermittent fasting)

| 0:29.0 | Welcome to the Dr. Berg's Healthy Kito and Interminute fasting podcast, where Dr. Berg takes you on the journey for the truth about getting healthy and losing healthy weight. Let's talk about the consequences of high estrogen in men. |
| 0:48.0 | Number one, it increases your risk of a stroke. |
