About Testosterone Elite Overview of health benefits Testosterone is an essential hormone that the body uses to maintain libido, bone mass, muscle mass and strength, and more. Age, a poor diet and stress are factors that can cause the body to produce less of this important hormone. Men in particular need testosterone to build muscle and maintain good sexual health, but levels decline over time. Testosterone Elite offers an exclusive blend of pomegranate and cocoa extracts with luteolin. These nutrients complement each other, supporting healthy testosterone production and promoting good levels of free and total testosterone. ✓ Tesnor®: This exclusive blend of pomegranate seed and cocoa extracts promotes testosterone production in laboratory studies. A clinical study indicated that it encouraged healthy levels of free and total testosterone and supported physical strength and other benefits of healthy testosterone levels. ✓ Luteolin: Luteolin is a flavonoid, or plant compound, well known for its powerful antioxidant properties, which can support a healthy inflammatory response and protect against cellular stress. In a preclinical study, luteolin was shown to help inhibit the activity of the aromatase enzyme and to promote testosterone production by promoting the conversion of cholesterol into pregnenolone, the precursor hormone for testosterone production. The science behind the product Why do testosterone levels decline in men? There are several reasons why men may experience a decline in testosterone levels. Ageing is the most common reason; the testes do not produce the same amount of testosterone as before. Another reason is increased activity of SHBG (sex hormone-binding globulin), a testosterone-binding protein that increases with age. The activity of the aromatase enzyme can also affect testosterone levels. This enzyme converts testosterone into estradiol (oestrogen). Oestrogen is necessary for men's health, but excessive conversion can deprive the body of the testosterone it needs and leave it in an oestrogen-dominant state.
