Alpha Prime has been formulated to improve your androgen to estrogen ratio. Increasing the androgen: estrogen ratio enhances fat loss whilst increasing lean muscle mass.
The effects of aging on testosterone
In both men and women, testosterone levels peak between 25 to 30 years of age – and thereafter drop approximately 1-2% annually. At the age of 60, testosterone levels are typically only 40-50% of youthful levels and may be lower due to stress and related lifestyle issues such as diet, exercise, and sleep patterns.
The following graph is a representation of the level of testosterone as they decline for a man and woman. This decline may be ‘normal’, but not healthy. Sometimes as we age, out fat mass increases, creating an unhealthy higher level of estrogen and a rather depressing lower level of testosterone.
Signs and symptoms of excess estrogen
Excessive oestrogen can occur in men and women. The following is a checklist to determine if you may have excessive oestrogen levels. If you feel you may have higher than normal oestrogen levels, see your health care practitioner.
estrogen body shape
As oestrogen is fat soluble, it is stored in the subcutaneous fat in the following areas:
hips
buttocks
thighs
breasts and chest
backs of the arms
love handles
lower back
lower abdomen
poor muscle mass and quality
poor muscle definition
excessive subcutaneous and intramuscular fat

The Symptoms of excessive estrogen include:
Increased worry, intuition and gut instincts
Exaggerated stress response and harder to switch off so can dwell on things
Good long term memory with poor short term memory
Running on autopilot
Can crave sugar and chocolate
Mood swings are aggravated and follow pattern with menstrual cycle or moon phase changes
Excessive headaches and migraines
Poor circulation, sometimes bruising and varicose veins
Bloated and “fluidy” abdomen, hips and thighs.

Your Oestrogen Detox Strategy
Avoid exposure to exogenous oestrogen (‘The Pill’ etc.) and isolate and address your cause (e.g. obesity or hypothyroid function). Fat cells produce oestrogen so losing fat may be your first option. See ATP Science AMP-V product.
Block the pathways that make the unhealthy 4α-hydroxy and 16α-hydroxy forms; while up regulating the pathway that makes the beneficial 2α-hydroxy form
Stimulate phase 2 conjugation reactions to deactivate and eliminate excessive estrogens
Alpha Prime contains the following natural ingredients that are specifically formulated to reduce oestrogen levels:
Brassica oleracea (Broccoli) Sprout
Modifies Phase 1 CYP450 enzymes to increases the good 2α-hydroxyestrone production and reduces the bad 16α-hydroxyestrone
Increases phase 2 conjugation of estrogen through glucuronidation, glutathionation, methylation and sulfation.
Quenches reactive quinones formed by the potentially dangerous 4α-hydroxyestrone pathway
Broccoli sprouts contain a multitude of beneficial phytonutrients, activated vitamins and cofactors.
Nrf2 activator (antioxidant)
Rosmarinus officinalis (Rosemary) extract
Works synergistically with sulforaphane to balance phase 1 and stimulate phase 2 detoxification pathways.
Modifies Phase 1 detoxification pathways to switch off the 16α-hydroxyestrone pathway and up-regulate the 2α-hydroxyestrone pathway
Enhances phase 2 conjugation reactions glutathionation and glucuronidation.
An Nrf2 activator (a potent antioxidant inducer)
Fucus vesiculosus (Bladderwrack) extract
Exerts anti-estrogenic effects
Acts as an aromatase inhibitor
Inhibits the binding of estradiol to estrogen receptors
A reliable source of iodine
Eurycoma longifolia (Tongkat Ali) Root Extract

“I almost have the whole shop now. Been using them for almost 6 months and a lot of people have noticed the change in my body shape due to my high estrogen locked away in my fat cells which has now dropped from using Alpha Prime/Alpha Venus and Block E3. Also check out their podcast atp project. So much general health information :-)” – Mandi Lee
It is best to avoid excessive estrogens in the body in the first place. Most excessive estrogens come from carrying too much body fat. Thus, the obvious strategy to reduce estrogens is to work with your coach, trainer and/ or healthcare provider to remove excess body fat. Other sources include the environmental exposure to plastics, pollutants and chemicals in medications and cosmetics. If these factors are a part of your life and you have some of the oestrogen dominant symptoms, then consider supplementing with Alpha Prime.
Almost finished one bottle of Prime and I've noticed a difference in body composition where I don't have as much fluid retention. Not sure if this is related but my anxiety hasn't been as bad. I need lots of Liver Support and Prime has been working well for me.Doesn't keep me awake either so I can take it late afternoon if I forget. Recommended for those needing oestrogen detox support.

International Customers Please Read the Below (Especially UK customers)
Import taxes: You may have to pay import taxes and/or customs duties. You may also be required to pay a brokerage (handling) fee for the shipment. These charges are separate from your shipping charge and you will be billed directly for them via the shipping carrier. These shipping and tax rates vary from country to country and also depend upon the products being ordered. ATP Science has no control over these charges.
Declaration of Value and Product Description: International shipments are processed with a commercial invoice as required to ship internationally. Customs may make additional requests based on local laws and regulations. Due to the complexity of some requests, we cannot guarantee that the additional information requested will be provided. The requests may differ depending on the order value, regulations, and other unpredictable factors.
Your shipping address, phone number, and email address: Please make sure your shipping address, phone number, and email are full and complete. The phone number or email may be used by the shipping company to contact you in case they have problems delivering your order. ATP Science is not responsible if you incorrectly enter your address on your order and will not be responsible for your parcel if it is incorrectly delivered because of this.
Customs & Regulatory information: ATP Science will not be liable for packages refused or held by customs for delivery. ATP Science does not take responsibility for any extra charged to the customer by customs/duty/VAT.
Address or other customer error: If a package is returned to ATP Science due to an address error (or any other error) made by the customer, the customer will be responsible for any shipping fees incurred. A refund will be issued for merchandise only, minus a 10% restocking fee*, upon receipt of the returned package. This also applies to customer refusal of a package (in which the customer will have the cost of the return shipment taken from the total refund).
Violation of laws: If a package is returned to ATP Science due to a violation of a country's laws or import regulations, the customer will be responsible for any and all fees billed to ATP Science as a result. A refund will be issued for merchandise only, upon receipt of the returned package. If an order is seized and destroyed by customs due to regulatory issues, the customer will not receive credit for the merchandise or shipping cost.
Notes on returned packages: If an order is rejected by customs or unable to be delivered, and the cost to return the goods is greater than the value of the goods, ATP Science will instruct the carrier to abandon the package. The customer will not receive a refund for the merchandise or shipping cost. If an order is rejected by you unwilling to pay the duties or taxes ATP Science will only accept the rejected order if the value of the package is more than the cost of shipping to and back again and 10% restocking fee. If the cost to return the items exceed the cost of goods then ATP Science will instruct the agents to destroy the package and no refund will be available (and you may still be liable to pay your customs duties and taxes). If we do accept the return of the goods your refund will be the total of your order minus the cost to ship the goods back to us (which in some cases is quite a hefty fee).
We request that you contact your customs office and ask about import regulations and restrictions before placing your order. It is important for you to become familiar with Customs policies for your specific country before ordering.
Customs regulations differ by country and not knowing their regulations can result in your order incurring high import duties, the delivery being delayed or even returned. Please check with your Customs office to see if your country permits the shipment of the products you are planning to order from us and if any additional licenses or permits are needed.
Jeff and Matt discuss the impact of the loss of natural testosterone in men and women as we age and just how important the adrenal function is for hormone production. Matt shares a breakthrough about selective estrogen receptor modifiers (SERMS) and why they are more effective at building muscle than many steroids and may be a secret weapon for women as there are no side effects and no interference with the endocrine system. A few really great FAQs that are a great listen.
Matt and Jeff jump over to the hormone Testosterone to discuss the many misconceptions surrounding it within the bodybuilding industry and how you can increase your ratios to provide your body with more “free testosterone”.
Welcome to the ATP Project’s episode #2! In this episode Matt and Jeff discuss everything ESTROGEN. They talk about estrogen dominance, cellulite, man boobs and fat storage.
