Hey guys! Today we're gonna talk about something called Gynecomastia, that's man boobs, and the liver. Liver is involved in so many problems, this issue is an estrogen problem but it's really a liver problem. If the liver is normally working correctly, you should not have man boobs. But it's when the liver gets compromised whether its a fatty liver, an inflamed liver, a hepatitis or a liver that's become filled with scar tissue that's called cirrhosis. That's when you start losing the ability to detoxify estrogen and estrogen builds up and if you have breast tissue you have excessive estrogen and it's not just a matter of being exposed to estrogen directly, there's something else in the environment that mimics estrogen and that is called Endocrine Disruptors, another name for endocrine disruptors is Estrogen disruptors because it is those chemicals in the environment that act like estrogen, they call them Eadie's and that would be things like pesticides, insecticides, herbicides, fungicides, it's in GMO food as glyphosate which is in almost every food right now, it's crazy. It's also going to be present in foods that have soy in them like soy protein isolates or soy oil. It's all GMO. Avoid soy if you have this issue. What happens in the liver is that there's a series of enzymes called phase 1, phase 2 enzymes which detoxify poisons or environmental poisons or hormones like estrogen and turns them into water-soluble harmless particles. That's what normally is supposed to happen and it's supposed to clear the excess estrogen. What happens first is you have this spike in insulin because you're eating too many carbohydrates and too many sugars. And then the liver becomes fatty.
