Fat Transplantation for Men


Cosmetic Surgery Guru

While many people think of cosmetic surgery as a group of procedures aimed at women, the truth is that more and more men are undergoing cosmetic procedures. One common procedure among men these days is the fat transplant. This procedure is designed to help eliminate wrinkles and add firmness to the lips, brow, cheeks, or chin.

A fat transplant works by removing fatty tissue from the buttocks, thighs, or other fatty areas of the body and injecting it into the area to be treated. Because this procedure uses your own natural body fat, it is not as quickly absorbed as injectable products such as collagen and Restalyne. Fat transplants last between six and twelve months, after which additional treatments are required to continue to see results.

The procedure itself is done using only local anesthesia. The fat is removed through a very small incision and is run through a centrifuge, enabling it to easily pass through a remarkably tiny needle and into the areas of skin to be treated. The recovery process is fast, and requires only that the patient massage the area several times throughout the course of the day. Patients are able to resume work and normal activity only three to four days after the procedure has been completed.

While most commonly used on the face, fat transplants can also be used on the calves, hands, triceps, and even the penis to add size and definition. Because the product comes from your own body, there is no chance of an allergic reaction. It also feels more natural than fillers and implants.

Yet another reason men undergo fat transplantation is to correct uneven fat distribution within the body. Weight loss can sometimes affect certain areas of the body while leaving others unchanged and create a sense of disproportion. Fat transplants can be used to even out fat placement within the body and restore a sense of symmetry.

In all, there are many reasons why men undergo fat transplantation. The process is remarkably safe and has few side effects. As with any procedure, complications are possible and include bleeding and infection, but these risks are small and can be greatly minimized by choosing a licensed surgeon who is experienced in performing the procedure. Fat transplants have many benefits, and whether you are looking to create definition, add size, or fight the signs of aging, it can be a remarkably successful procedure.

30 Days to a Better Man: Increase Your Testosterone


The Art of Manliness


When it comes to the differences between men and women, some are arguably cultural and some are biological. And the ones that are biological all pretty much have one thing in common: testosterone.

It was testosterone that helped form your penis and scrotum when you were just a fetus and put those first awesome hairs on your chest as a teenager. You may not have thought about testosterone much since your voice cracked while reciting Shakespeare in Mrs. Tonnelson’s ninth grade English class. But you should, a lot actually. Why, you ask? Well, ask yourself the following questions:

  • Do you feel like your libido has been ebbing away?
  • Has erectile dysfunction caused you embarrassment?
  • Have you been carrying some extra pounds that won’t go away?
  • Do you often feel physically and mentally tired?
  • Do you feel depressed and unhappy?
  • Do you feel shiftless and lack drive?
  • Do you wish you felt more like a man?

Testosterone is not the cure for all of life’s ills. But it can go a long way in addressing these ailments and contributing to your overall health and well-being.

What is testosterone?

Testosterone is part of the androgen group and is the primary male sex hormone. The majority of your T is produced by your trusty testes. Women have T too, but men have 40-60 times greater amounts in their bodies. Testosterone is what gave you bigger muscles and organs than women. And it’s what gave you a “male brain,” which is larger than the female brain (although we should strongly point out that size has nothing to do with intelligence) but which has a decreased connection between the hemispheres. Perhaps most importantly, T is what enables you to rock an awesome beard or mustache. Testosterone maintains your manly characteristics throughout your whole life and regulates several systems in your body.

So T is pretty damn important to a man. It’s what makes you feel like a man, man. So if you haven’t been feeling too manly lately, or maybe ever, perhaps it’s time for you to throw yourself a T party.

The Benefits of Testosterone

Testosterone has been scientifically proven to:

  • Improve your mental and physical energy
  • Increase your competitive drive
  • Increase your muscle size and strength
  • Increase your metabolism
  • Help prevent Alzheimer’s and dementia
  • Increase libido and erectile function

Every man is born with different levels of testosterone, and T secretion naturally falls as a man ages. And overdosing on testosterone (read: steroids) can have negative health effects. But modern environmental, cultural, and dietary changes are artificially decreasing men’s normal T levels, and at a younger and younger age. According to a recent study:

“Researchers in the US are finding testosterone levels to be substantially lower — by about 15 to 20% — than they were fifteen years ago. Scandinavian studies show similar declines, and in younger men too; a man born in 1970, for example, had about 20 percent less testosterone at 35 than a man of his father’s generation at the same age.”

So what’s sapping our T? Here’s a few of the factors at play:

Stress. Stress increases our level of cortisol and decreases our testosterone.

Lack of sleep. Testosterone rises while you sleep, particularly during the REM phases. Today, men are often skimping on their shut eye, which in turn is sapping their testosterone.

Soy intake. Soy is supposed to be so good for you, right? Wrong! Soy increases your estrogen and decreases your T. It will also lower your sperm count.

Eating a low fat diet. Low fat diets have been widely debunked these days.7 But in case you needed yet another reason to put down the Snackwell’s, it has also been proven to decease your T.8

Smoking. The nicotine and cotinine in cigarettes inhibits and reduces T production.9

The Day 4 Challenge: Increase Your Testosterone!

So your task for today is to do three things from the following list that will help increase your testosterone. Obviously, doing more than 3 is great, and I would encourage you to commit to them for the whole 30 days and beyond.

1. Get at least 8 hours of sleep tonight.

2. Do not smoke at all today. (If you don’t smoke right now, you can’t count this one as one of your 3)

3. Do no eat anything with soy in it. You’re going to have to read labels. It will blow your mind how many things contain soy these days.

4. Meditate for at least 10 minutes. This will help you de-stress.

5. Do resistance training. Lift some weights and do compound exercises like squats, deadlifts, dips, rows, and pull-ups. They’ll boost your T more than bicep curls. You also need to use heavy weights and short sets.

6. Eat a serving of good fat. As you fat intake goes up, so do your T levels. Aim to get at least 30% of your calories from fat today and spread your consumption of it throughout the day. Monosaturated fats-the kind found in nuts, fish, olives, olive oil, seeds, and avocados-are particularly beneficial to your testosterone level (and your health). Also, don’t be afraid of saturated fat; that whole business about it raising your cholesterol and causing heart disease is a bunch of rubbish.

7. Eat a serving of animal protein. Vegetarian diets have been proven to lower your T levels.12 So go ahead and have that steak. (This might be the easiest day of the challenge yet!) There’s no need to overdo it though; a diet with a carb to protein ratio of 2:1 is ideal for testosterone production.

8. Eat a serving of cruciferous vegetables. Veggies like broccoli, cauliflower, radishes, turnips, cabbage and brussel sprouts contain Diindolylmethane which helps balance your estrogen and testosterone levels and increases the amount of free circulating T in your body.

9. Have morning sex (if you partner is willing, of course). Just having an erection increases your testosterone. And you already get a surge of T when you wake up, so this will bump it up even further.

Eat Clean diet for Men

Well is there a diet which can help men lose weight and improve their sex life too? This is a claim that the eat clean diet for men makes. The eat clean is about picking your foods and only eating clean foods. Clean foods are foods that are healthy. This makes a lot of sense if you think about it. Everyone knows that foods with high fat content can decrease your sex drive.

So can the eat clean diet for men help you? Read some of the tips from the Eat Clean diet for Men website:

When men saw the results their wives and girlfriends were getting with The Eat-Clean Diet, many of them wanted to know if they could Eat Clean too. The answer? A resounding yes! In fact, Eating Clean was originally developed by, and for, men. So when men Eat Clean they are assured of getting the foods they love, and in quantities that feed their manly muscles. Along with her husband Robert Kennedy, Tosca Reno shows men the way to take care of their specific health problems and their sexual health while creating their optimal physiques, and the best news? They never have to count calories or eat like rabbits while doing so.




Amazon review:

I'm a newcomer to the whole "eat clean" movement, and was recently gifted with a copy of this book from a good friend.

With several years of solid workout/good eating behind me, I found the large front section to be largely a rehash of the current trends and suggestions for eating better.

However, if you're a guy who's 100% new to this idea and are about to embark on a weight loss program that includes clean/better eating, then by all means -- get this book. I doubt you could start off on a better food with better information than this title!

Once I got to the recipes, I was surprised by how simple and easy it was to make each dish, and was surprised by some of the more exotic ingredients. (Spelt flour and almond milk anyone?) I've made several, and can say that you'll be FULL and so long as you're open to new flavors and new takes on some of your old favorites, you'll enjoy the results.
