Debeda,
We live in a free country and we citizens should use the free market to solve our health problems. We should not rely upon the government that finds it cheaper to k**l us than cure us even before we make it out of the womb.
But I think you are asking the wrong question by promoting an inflammatory debate.
Let me ask you:
What is eating up everybody's hormones, especially testosterone?Testosterone is vital for cancer prevention:Testosterone therapy may reduce prostate cancer risk due to testosterone deficiency at a young age via stabilizing serum testosterone levels.https://www.urotoday.com/recent-abstracts/urologic-oncology/prostate-cancer/111078-testosterone-therapy-may-reduce-prostate-cancer-risk-due-to-testosterone-deficiency-at-a-young-age-via-stabilizing-serum-testosterone-levels.htmlTestosterone and breast cancer preventionhttps://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/26160683 Abstract
"Testosterone (T) is the most abundant biologically active hormone in women. Androgen receptors (AR) are located throughout the body including the breast where T decreases tissue proliferation. However, T can be aromatized to estradiol (E2), which increases proliferation and hence, breast cancer (BCA) risk.
Increased aromatase expression and an imbalance in the ratio of stimulatory estrogens to protective androgens impacts breast homeostasis. Recent clinical data supports a role for T in BCA prevention. Women with symptoms of hormone deficiency treated with pharmacological doses of T alone or in combination with anastrozole (A), delivered by subcutaneous implants, had a reduced incidence of BCA. In addition, T combined with A effectively treated symptoms of hormone deficiency in BCA survivors and was not associated with recurrent disease. Most notably, T+A implants placed in breast tissue surrounding malignant tumors significantly reduced BCA tumor size, further supporting T direct antiproliferative, protective and therapeutic effect."
Exercise is one way to increase the necessary levels of testosterone production in both men and women. But, in society today, we have an over abundance of natural Estrogen (birth control and prenatal care oxytocin) and synthetic Estrogen hormones (biphenyl-6 herbicides) that are creating an imbalance of testosterone levels and literally neutering the nation, ruining our health:

Of course, the mainstream media is hell bent on divide and conquering the public for political purposes, which is a shame. One thing we Americans all have in common, rich, poor, white, black, old or young, healthy or handicapped, and anybody in between: we don't like anyone else or the government telling us what to do.
