What To Do To Lose Chest Fat

By Steve Brodie

No man wants to be able to fill his partners bra. Having man boobs can be extremely embarrassing for a man and cause psychological discomfort, especially considering that not many women will be drooling over a pair of flabby pecs.

Dealing with the causes of man boobs is the key to knowing how to lose chest far. You may not know it but an oversupply of female hormones is the main contibutor. An imbalance of testosterone and oestrogen (the main sex hormones) is at the root of most namboobs. An excess of estrogen will cause a feminization of male bodies, with curvy hips and breasts as a result. This of course makes it a slightly more complex issue than just too much fat - fit and healthy men still get man boobs because of hormones.

The first step is to minimise estrogen in the body. Increasing testosterone as a way of lowering estrogen can be disastrous as some bodies will get man boobs because testosterone is converted into estrogen! Its best to think of your hormonal system as a complex whole because they interact with each other in the body, so treating them separately can sometimes have undesired effects.

Sometimes the cause of man boobs is obvious. Being overweight and having man boobs can be a hand in hand scenario - drop the weight, not only for the sake of your chest fat, but for your overall health. Carrying excess weight can exacerbate the problem if your man boobs have hormonal causes also because testosterone is converted into estrogen in fat cells, so the more fat cells the more likely you are to have man boobs.

For a lot of men what Im going to say next will hurt, apologies in advance. Those afternoon beers are a leading cause of man boobs. The hops in beer is very estrogenic and will lead straight to those lovely love handles and man boobs, sorry.

There are a few basic things to take care of to rid yourself of man boobs without getting risky surgery which can leave horrid scars and your boobs may even return. Basically it boils down to diet, lifestyle and exercise. Getting rid of man boobs is one advantage, but you will also achieve a healthy happy lifestyle. Getting to the gym is important, not only for your regular health but for shedding chest fat. Find a program that is designed for man boobs and will target the right areas.

Diet is very important for eliminating man boobs. Zinc has a lot to do with testosterone and will get depleted if you exercise so will need constant replacement. Walnuts and organic wild meats are great sources of zinc. Watercress is an absolute must for man boobs as are cauliflower and broccoli; these foods are estrogen modulators so should be included in the diet.

Natural supplements to try and include are curcumin and grape seed extract which have incredibly powerful properties of stopping the nasty effects of estrogen in the body. Foreign estrogens are also drained from the body by soluble fibre, so eat lots of it. Having man boobs is not something any man should have to live with, and there are natural ways to deal with them, so now there are no more reasons to live with man boobs. - 17273
