The addition of Beta Sitosterol to this exclusive androgenic complex helps prevent the conversion of testosterone to DHT. Beta Sitosterol is a powerful substance that inhibits enzyme 5-alpha reductase, thereby decreasing the conversion of testosterone to dihydrotestosterone (DHT). Because this chemical activity involves different enzymes for activation, Beta Sitosterol does not interfere with the effectiveness of Masteroid and its conversion process. Instead Beta Sitosterol prevents testosterone from being converted to DHT, essentially keeping testosterone levels high and the testosterone-to-DHT conversion process in check. This is significant because Beta Sitosterol also helps inhibit DHT from binding to cytosolic androgen receptors in prostatic cells. This important activity helps prevent complications related to elevated DHT levels such as an enlarged prostate or benign prostatic hyperplasia (BHP).
Equally important, Beta Sitosterol also exerts a powerful anti-estrogen effect, lowering cytosol and nuclear receptor values for estrogen. This helps prevent the unwanted effects of estrogen levels including the development of gynecomastia, water retention, and increased body fat. All androgens have the potential for aromatization, including testosterone. Elevated levels of testosterone are down regulated in the body by the potential conversion to dihydrotestosterone and (estrodiol) estrogen. Beta Sitosterol inhibits this down regulation and the potential associated side effects.
