Alpha Prime is formulated for both men and women to help maintain healthy hormonal levels naturally*.
Our world is changing…
There are chemicals in everything! Every time we eat, breathe, apply a lotion or cosmetics and even in our healthy foods, country air, medications, and supplements there are weird chemicals. Some of these chemicals have estrogenic or hormone-disrupting effects, others can change the way we detoxify and process all of our own body toxins, hormones, neurotransmitters, and waste creating all sorts of problems.
Toxins are everywhere!
Exposure to the following factors may be associated with “estrogen issues” by changing how our body reacts to and detoxifies accumulated estrogen:
– Plastics.
– Pesticides.
– Fertilizers.
– Petrochemicals.
– Pollution.
– Foods.
– Cosmetics.
– Sunscreens.
– Genetics.
– Family history of Oestrogen dominance.
– Inherited genetic MTHFR gene polymorphisms.
– HRT and certain oral contraceptive pills.
– “Xenoestrogens”.
– EDC’s (endocrine disrupting chemicals).
– Iodine deficiency and / or hypothyroidism.
– Folate deficiency.
Everything is a stress
The definition of stress; is anything that creates a change in our body. Therefore, stress could be almost anything! It’s not just hurried, worry, money; stress may be the toxins listed above, an immune challenge, a temperature extreme, electromagnetic radiation, or fears of any of these happening in past, present, or future.
Our body priorities change in response to stress. Basically, we can’t afford to wait to see what the stress is before we react, just in case it is a life-threatening attack and not just an exposure to an environmental pollutant or a memory. Our survival instincts kick in and we ensure we survive the day at the expense of other systems plans and maintenance. For example, while fighting off a bear, detoxification and hormonal production, regulation, and activity for reproduction or sex for fun is NOT a priority and these things will be neglected during chronic stress and toxic exposure.
Natural support – as mentioned previously, toxic exposure changes how we process chemicals in general. The enzymes needed to process toxins are the same enzymes that are needed for the general maintenance of hormones and our own internal toxins we make every day. If certain processes are sped up, slowed down, or switched off; that can create all sorts of imbalances all over your body.
You can use specific foods and supporting nutrients to support your body’s natural detoxification and elimination pathways to help maintain healthy function in your body.
Broccoli Sprout, kale, daikon radish* and Rosemary.
Broccoli sprouts, kale, and daikon radish are considered very healthy vegetables. They have a particular compound in common, these foods are high in different forms of glucosinolates that create a natural chemical called Sulforaphane. Studies have found that glucosinolate containing vegetables and in particular sulforaphane activates Nrf2 in the body. Activating Nrf2 supports healthy detoxification of estrogen to help to maintain normal estrogen levels. *
These Brassica plants along with other herbs like Rosemary also interact with the detoxification enzymes to help “reboot” the detoxification pathways so they continue to function normally even after toxic exposure. *
Kelp and Iodine
Fucus vesiculosus (Bladderwrack) extract is a form of seaweed/kelp, that naturally contains Iodine. * Iodine is deficiency can create many inefficiencies in multiple hormonal systems of the body, supplying adequate dietary iodine is also important to maintain proper hormone levels and estrogen metabolism. *
Folate
Folate is an essential nutrient for a natural detoxification process called methylation which is necessary to maintain proper hormone function.* It is important to maintain adequate dietary folate to prevent deficiency. Folate is involved in multiple systems and pathways in the body but it is extremely important in helping to maintain healthy estrogen levels. *
Tongkat Ali
Tongkat Ali has a long history of use and a reputation for improving sexual performance or at the very least, sexual desire. In more recent years it has been researched for its potential to help support hormonal health, promote free testosterone, and help us deal with stress better.

What is the difference between Alpha Prime and Alpha Venus?
Alpha Venus and Alpha Prime both contain exactly the same estrogen detoxification ability.
However where they vary is in regards to building androgens to offset the estrogen.
Alpha Venus is designed to build up the androgen progesterone while clearing away the estrogen excess.
Alpha Prime is designed to increase testosterone and DHEA while clearing away the estrogen excess.

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.
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”.
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.

The requests may differ depending on the order value, regulations, and other unpredictable factors.
