Obesity and Cancer Extracts of Cyperus, Curcuma and Astragalus for Belly Fat Obese persons have high estradiol, low testosterone levels • Breast cancer – Larger tumor size – Advanced grade – Increased nodal involvement – Higher mortality • Prostate Cancer – More aggressive tumors – Higher recurrence rate Copyright. Chi‟s Enterprise, Inc. Plasticizers: Xenoestrogens DEHP, DINP, BBP, DBP • Plasticizers as clouding agents found in sports drinks, juices, tea drinks, fruit jams or syrups, and tablets or powders • Causes cancer and damage to the reproductive system, heart, kidneys and liver • Men: Has feminizing qualities, reduces sperm • Women: Early puberty, breast cancer risk Copyright. Chi‟s Enterprise, Inc. Aromatase converts testosterone into estrogen. More estrogen means more fat accumulation, especially in the belly, which has the highest amount of aromatase. The herbal extracts reduce aromatase and consequently reduces belly fat. For weight loss, take with Extracts of Raphanus, Crataegus, Alisma, Garcinia, Paeonia and Tyrosine . Copyright.

Chi‟s Enterprise, Inc. Effect of Xenoestrogens on Men • Reduces sperm count – Only ~46 million/ml for men around 20 years old (Avg 84 million/ml for men 30-50 years old) – 1940s: avg was 60 million/ml. Now avg is 20 million/ml • Lowers ejaculation • Doubles testicular cancer risk – rate has doubled in the last 40 years • Increases male breast cancer – 1973: 86 per 100,000 were twice at risk – 1998: risk increased 1.08 times – 2004: 1,600 cases of breast cancer diagnosed Copyright.
