Sneak Your Man to Health
Sneak Your Man to Health Herbs may be the ideal way to ease into dealing with your mans
symptoms of male menopause.If you have lived with this man for a number of years, it is likely that there are some
things you know about him that he doesnt know about himself (and he probably knows some about you as well).Knowing
your mans moods, even if he is the most silent of the strong silent types, comes partly from observation and a lot
because you care.You can usually tell is he is getting ill before he does, you know that he had to deal with that
dimwit at work within five minutes of him getting home, you know that a certain treat or trick will banish his
blues. You might have noticed changes in your mans body, mood, or libido and have done a little investigating; and
here you are.Youve read up on the symptoms, treatment, and care and feeding of an Andropausal (medical term for
male menopause) guy. There are many ways to help your man that dont include invading his space, tricking, or
manipulating.Every herb, vitamin, or good food you give to your man will have the aggregate effect of making him
healthier, andropause or no.So, if your man has rejected any conversations about menopause, or finds that kind of
concept too oogy to contemplate, or if he just isnt ready to deal with all that mess, heres where you start. His
food!If you have not already, its time to address the amount of fat, fiber, sugar, and starch you serve your
man.Serve less to no meat, salt, sugary and fatty foods.Serve more veggies, especially the deep green or
cruciferous type. Soy is also very helpful to help excrete excess estrogen.Serve lots of fresh tomatoes, fresh and
cooked.One food to avoid, though, is grapefruit, which can prevent the liver from breaking down estrogen. All other
fruit is fair game! Something else to make your man smile is that he needs a bit of fat in his diet as it is needed
to make testosterone and other hormones. Here is some good news, in case you didnt know it before.The same herbs
that help women with their menopausal symptoms have the very same effect on the men. Toss a few on his vitamin
plate and say no more.If your man is soy-phobic, give him 30-50 mgs of isoflavones supplement a day. Increase his
vitamin C dose to 1,000 to3; 000.Zinc at 50mg twice a day is fine. Calcium helps to slow down bone mass reduction.
No iron supplements, though. Some herbs that help combat male menopause may also increase his sexual potency just
may make your man ready to take them.Gingko biloba, yohimbe, and ginseng are old standbys.If your man has high
blood pressure, yohimbe should only be added after consulting with his doctor. Being sneaky, until your man is
willing to talk about his symptoms, will be beneficial to his health and also to your peace of mind.When the day
comes when your man wants to talk, just smile, listen, and give him an extra big helping of broccoli!
Male Manopause
Women on the other hand can start having pre-menopausal symptoms as early as age 35. The main hormone that triggers menopause for women is estrogen. This hormone for women decreases noticeably over a period of five years starting at around age 50.
