The Harm of Aromatase Inhibition w/Scott Howell The Jay Campbell Podcast

    • Medicine

It has been well-researched and even well-documented that the inhibition of estrogen is detrimental and even dangerous to men’s health. 
 
The problem is, we still have people and even doctors who are making their patients take aromatase inhibitors. 
 
The majority of information on aromatase inhibition originates from bro science and the bodybuilding subculture. This is harmful in so many ways, and it is damaging to the biological system on so many levels. Why is blocking estrogen while on testosterone so harmful? 
 
Why is this still such a problem in the clinical community? How is the inhibition of aromatase causing so many problems for bodybuilders? 
 
In this episode, I’m joined by leading androgen researcher and Tier1 Health and Wellness Research Director, Dr. Scott Howell shares a presentation and gives his professional, expert opinion on why we’re harming men when we suppress their estrogen.  
 
The body has a failsafe mechanism which is the aromatase enzyme. The benefits of TOT are modulated by estradiol. -Scott Howell
 
Three Takeaways 
Any time the aromatase enzyme function is interfered with, the body’s normal adaptive hypertrophy is exacerbated.  
Estradiol is neuro-protective and essential for the integrity survival of dopamine neurons and mood stabilization. It’s also essential and vitally protective of the immune and cardiovascular system.
The side effects of estrogen should be managed outside of the estradiol.
3 Things You’ll Learn In This Episode 
What actually happens to our biological tissue when we knock out the androgen receptor  Why blocking estrogen is actually the cause for many deaths in the bodybuilding community  The 6 forms of androgen toxicity
