As we age, many substances in our body decline. Hormones are substances that decline as we age. Hormones are chemical messengers of the body. Estrogen, a vital hormone for women, declines in the body as we age, declines from stress, may decline by the use of oral contraceptives or having a hysterectomy and many other reasons.

The hormones run the body and estrogen is a vital hormone. If the levels of estrogen in the body decline there will be less efficiency, which can lead to loss of function. As hormones decline our bodies will not work as well as when hormone levels are more youthful and optimal. Estrogen is also vital for women to maintain optimal levels of immunity. For example, modern science knows that too much estrogen and other sex hormones, when left unchecked can cause uncontrolled cell proliferation in the female reproductive system, which may result in problems such as cancer. One consideration is to maintain appropriate levels of estrogen and other sex hormones to help control and balance each other. This prevents excessive and imbalanced hormones that left unchecked leads to problems. This results in a big boost in immune function.

Estrogen shows benefits in slowing down degenerative processes such as osteoporosis, heart disease, and many other conditions. Maintaining estrogen at youthful, optimal levels enhances immunity.

Also estrogen is vital to immunity because it controls many of the hormones. Estrogen can affect the balances in all the other sexual hormones, and in other primary hormones such as DHEA, melatonin, human growth hormone, adrenal hormones, and thyroid. Basically, the primary hormones run the body and estrogen is a primary hormone. If estrogen and other primary hormones work better, this will improve immunity.

Furthermore, estrogen has many positive effects such as improved mood, and higher immune function. Therefore proper estrogen levels increase health and decrease stress in the body. When you decrease stress in the body this is very beneficial.

Dr. Bob is mentioned many times on this web site. He was a MD internal medicine, orthomolecular doctor, MD psychiatrist, chiropractor, and healer 65 years. He was a diabetic who lived to 108 years with 1 side effect 2 years before he passed away.

Dr. Bob helped thousands of people in his lifetime, health wise, spiritually, mentally, and many other wonderful ways. Eventually, if you knew him long enough you found his greatest specialty was curing incurable diseases. He said this was not as big a miracle as it seemed, curing incurable diseases. He said the idea of disease is it creates stress in the body, problems that the body must handle and neutralize. Disease is a progressive problem and so the stress just keeps increasing. Dr. Bob would simply look for methods to decrease stress in the body. Eventually he would find enough methods to decrease stress to the point where the body could heal itself and then the body would cure itself. By decreasing stress to a certain point, the body finally would have enough ability to neutralize the rest of the problems. Dr. Bob called this the shotgun approach. He would fire a load of bullets and after the smoke had cleared, he would see what was still standing (what problems and symptoms were still left). He would fire again and wait for the smoke to clear. Usually by the second firing the person was working a lot better and getting a lot better on his or her own.

Maintaining proper estrogen levels is loading your own gun and firing away at disease. When you have proper balance of estrogen and the other controlling hormones mentioned in this article, you have higher immune function, less stress in the body from hormone imbalance or problems from hormone imbalance, you have higher efficiency due to the hormones running the body better, and many other benefits.

Many women fear replacement of sexual hormones. This fear is proper because for 3 decades and even to the present many grave mistakes have been made in hormonal replacement therapy for women. Many times estrogen was replaced without replacing progesterone. Since progesterone controls estrogen levels, replacing estrogen without progesterone as led to improper balances of estrogen, usually excessive. Excess estrogen in the body is often stored in cells in the body. Estrogen promotes growth. When you store estrogen in cells never intended for that function it can lead to wild cell growth and potential problems such as cancer. The effect is similar to throwing kerosene on a fire.

However, modern science has learned a great deal from these mistakes and now estrogen replacement can be made a lot safer by using doctors who understand the latest cutting edge technology in the hormonal sciences. We recommend the A-4 doctors, from the American Academy of Anti-aging Medicine. A-4 doctors are tested on the latest cutting edge technology in the hormonal sciences before they can become A-4 doctors. Their number is 773-528-4333. Also, read the other articles on this web site about progesterone and estrogen to gain a better understanding of how modern science has advanced and made estrogen replacement therapy a lot safer and less stressful on the body.

In conclusion, estrogen is a vital hormone for women. It needs to be balanced and maintained in order to avoid negative feedback with other hormones that work in combination with estrogen. This will provide many benefits, including boosting the immune system. Dr. Bob advised women to consider estrogen replacement therapy when needed, to help maintain health and well being.

He said choose the doctors with the cutting edge technology to help guide you through hormonal replacement therapy. One clue that your doctor is not on the cutting edge is when he measures only 1 hormone at a time and restores it without restoring the other hormones that work in combination with it.


Note
– In order for these anti-aging ideas to be successful, you must use supplements of the highest quality. Dr. Bob often said, "almost all supplement companies produce poor quality." You can consider the product page of this web site. Almost all the products met Dr. Bob’s approval. Since he passed away we have attempted to keep the same high standards.
