Use EC to crush estrogen dominance, lose stubborn body fat, reduce inflammation, and improve mood!
I received EC from you about 6 months ago and found two males with uncontrolled estradiol increases even on a 40mg every-third-day protocol. Patient (1) had an Estradiol of 67.4ng/ml without any symptoms of nipple sensitivity or breast fullness. A repeat Estradiol 90 days after 2 caps a day returned a 23.7ng/ml. The other patient’s (2), initial Estradiol prior to starting testosterone therapy was 117ng/ml, We placed him on EC and followed up in 3 months and his Estradiol level dropped to 42.4ng/l. With the results on these two challenging cases, I will now make EC known to our patients as an option for treating their real and assumed elevations in Estradiol.

Mike, I have been on TRT for the last five years and battling elevated estrogen levels the entire time. After 5 years of intermittent use of estrogen-blocking prescription medication, I turned to EC to try a more natural approach. When not on meds I would see my estrogen levels return to the mid-40s to low 50s. After twelve weeks at two capsules a day of EC, my estrogen levels were 23! Also, EC is my secret weapon for recovery. I recover so much better when I’m on it.
Thank you for your hard work and dedication.
–Matt Cromwell
Thanks, Mike- your products rock!! Got through the TRT withdrawals cold turkey with 2 caps twice a day of EC and Test Booster for 6 weeks. Took 4 weeks off and now I’m going to proceed at the lower dose. Thanks a million for a legit product.

This supplement helped balance my estrogen and it only took 2-3 months of taking it regularly! it regulated my menstrual cycles and helped with my acne I was getting from the excessive estrogen. I totally recommend this product for women who suffer from PCOS, fibroids or just have a lot of estrogen in general.
–Tia Bridges
Since I started using EC my estradiol has dropped from 75 to 27pg/mL. Thanks … and thanks for all you do!
–James Buckley
LOVE the podcast – really appreciate all that you and Sincere do! You cut through the BS and hold this industry accountable..love that you limit the products to ensure quality and integrity and actually use them yourself. I love EC and I’ve never felt better (at age 51).

It is all too obvious that estrogen dominance is at an all-time high! Many overweight men now carry body fat in a similar manner to overweight women with excess fat in the hips, glutes, and thighs. Women with high levels of fat storage in the hips, glutes, and thighs are also clearly estrogen dominant and need to address hormone balance.
Other symptoms of estrogen dominance in men and women include poor mood, lack of focus, non-existent sex drive, poor sex function, water retention, difficulty losing fat and building muscle. In addition, too much estrogen contributes to prostate issues in men and too much estrogen contributes to a higher incidence of breast cancer in women.
Estrogen dominance rises when men fail to produce enough testosterone to keep estrogen levels in check. In addition, men often have high estrogen levels due to the rapid conversion of testosterone into estrogen via aromatase enzymes. High exposure to xenoestrogens, stress, poor diet digestion issues, smoking, alcohol consumption are among the other common reasons why both men and women have excess estrogen levels.
Think of EC as supplemental insurance to stack the hormone optimization deck in your favor and help ensure you achieve all of your health and fitness goals.*
So what exactly is in EC? Glad you asked. EC consists of potent extracts of Curcumin C3 Complex, Brassaiopsis Glomerulata, and Prunella Vulgaris. These are the three most effective natural ingredients for battling estrogen dominance.*
There are also numerous additional benefits that each of the ingredients in EC offer. Let’s take a closer look at each ingredient.
Curcumin C3 Complex®
Curcumin C3 Complex® alone is a very effective estrogen blocker that works by forcefully blocking estrogen receptors on the cellular level. The right extract of Curcumin is so strong that some studies have suggested that it may be even more efficacious than the drug Tamoxifen at lowering estrogen without any of the side effects!*
Curcumin C3 Complex® is obtained from the dried rhizomes of Curcuma longa (Turmeric) and standardized for a minimum 95% Curcuminoids.
The name C3 Complex® has reference to its three main chemical compounds – Curcumin, demethoxycurcumin (DMC) and Bisdemethoxycurcumin (BDMC)—collectively known as “Curcuminoids”.
In addition to being a powerful estrogen blocker, the benefits of Curcumin are endless and include:
- Supports testosterone production in men due to heightened activity of enzymes such as 3-beta-HSD and 17-beta-HSD in the testes. These enzymes are involved in the biosynthesis of testosterone*
- Has as an anabolic/anticatabolic effect in muscle tissue*
- Improves prostate health by protecting the prostate against androgens*
- Has been shown to block the growth of fat tissue and stimulates fat burning in the body*
- Boosts the blood vessel widening effect of nitric oxide*
- Increases glucose uptake into muscle cells*
- Reduces inflammation*
- Improves joint health and pain management*
- Relieves arthritis*
- Mitigates depression*
- Ramps up the growth of new neurons and battles various degenerative processes in the brain*
- Improves brain health by encouraging more acetylcholine to make it to the brain*
- Enhances insulin sensitivity which is critical for fat loss, hormone optimization, and overall health*
- Upgrades liver function and liver health*
- Promotes heart health and ideal blood pressure*
- Sharpens the function of the endothelium, which is the lining of the blood vessels*
- Elevates metabolism to improve fat loss*
- Is a strong antioxidant and improves the immune system*
- Has potent antiviral, antibacterial, and anti-fungal properties*
- Cultivates gut health and alleviates digestion issues*
- Supports healthy cholesterol levels*
- Promotes bone health*
- Relieves the symptoms eczema and inflammatory bowel disease*
Brassaiopsis glomerulata Extract
Brassaiopsis glomerulata is a herb that has been used in China to relieve a variety of issues including back pain and constipation.*
A few years ago, researchers ascertained that extracts of the leaves of Brassaiopsis glomerulata also have powerful anti-oestrogenic effects making it a potent natural aromatase inhibitor. One study even showed it is as powerful as the leading aromatase inhibitor drug.*
You guessed it, the same extracts used in the studies are in EC to ensure you benefit from the potent estrogen-blocking effects of Brassaiopsis glomerulata.*
Prunella Vulgaris PE 20:1
Prunella Vulgaris has potent anti-estrogenic properties via activation of the the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) (7). AHR is involved in protein expression in the body and its activation has been shown to interfere with estrogen receptor alpha (ERalpha) due to direct cross-talk.*
Prunella also has a variety of other benefits including:
- Reduces inflammation and is a natural antibiotic*
- Alleviates allergies and sore throat*
- Reduces fevers*
- Mitigates stomach issues such as diarrhea and internal bleeding*
- Promotes liver and heart health*
- Supports healthy blood pressure*
- Natural detoxifier and diuretic*
- Helps lower high blood glucose levels.*
Frequently Asked Questions
How long does one bottle last?
Most users will use 1 cap 2x per day and there are 90 caps per bottle. Thus, each bottle will last most users for six weeks.
What is the best way to use EC?
I recommend you start with 2 caps per day. Works best when taken with meals as it also improves insulin sensitivity and glucose disposal (less glucose being stored as fat) so take one cap with 2 meals.
If you notice a decrease in sex drive, increased joint pain, or a poor mood, it means EC is working too well and has driven down your estrogen levels too much. Just stop taking EC for a week and reduce the dosage to one cap per day to get estrogen in the optimal range (not too low or high).
The best way to use the product is 12 weeks on and 4 weeks off to avoid becoming desensitized to the herbs in the formula.
How is EC different from your Aggressive Strength Testosterone Booster?
Aggressive Strength is a potent testosterone booster with moderate estrogen control while EC is a potent estrogen control supplement which in turn will have a moderate effect on increasing testosterone in men.* In addition, women can take EC to address estrogen dominance while Aggressive Strength is only for men. Aggressive Strength Testosterone Booster
Can I take EC with the Aggressive Strength Testosterone Booster?
Yes, you can and should if you have high estrogen levels. If you’re overweight you can rest assured that your estrogen levels are likely very high. High estrogen levels impede fat loss so reducing estrogen will help accelerate fat loss.* Otherwise, you can use EC in between cycles of Aggressive Strength or use a lower dosage of EC with Aggressive Strength cycles such as 1-2 caps per day.
Can EC reduce estrogen too much?
Not likely unless you take more than the recommended dose. if you notice joint pain or a decrease in sex drive then you have reduced estrogen too much. Take a few days off from EC and then reduce the dosage.
What is the optimal estrogen level for a healthy man?
An estradiol reading of 20 to 30 pg/ml. According to the Life Extension Organization, below 18 pg/ml increases osteoporosis risk and greater than 30 pg/ml increases heart attack and stroke incidence.*
Should EC be taken with meals or on an empty stomach?
Take with meals as the ingredients in EC absorb better with food and also help with digestion, insulin sensitivity, and glucose utilization.
Can women take EC?
Yes, women over 21 that are not pregnant or nursing can. Make sure to consult with your physician before taking any nutritional supplements.
How old do I need to be to take EC?
21
How long should I run EC?
Use 12 weeks on and 4 weeks off
Why do I need to take 4 weeks off for every 12 weeks of use?
One can become desensitized to herbs if taken for too long. By cycling 12 weeks on and then 4 weeks off, you keep sensitivity to the ingredients for maximum benefit.
Is post cycle support needed for this product?
No, EC is not a hormone or steroid and does not shut down the natural production of testosterone.
Is EC Gluten-free?
Yes, all of my supplements are gluten-free as well as free of soy, dairy, animal by-products, and msg.
Are your products manufactured at a facility that practices cGMP?
Yes, cGMP refers to the Current Good Manufacturing Practice regulations enforced by the FDA. CGMPs provide for systems that assure proper design, monitoring, and control of manufacturing processes and facilities. All of my supplements are made at such facilities.
Do you offer a money-back guarantee?
EC has a 30-day money-back guarantee for first-time users. Give it a shot for a month. If you’re not happy with the results, then shoot me an email and I will arrange a refund for the purchase price (shipping fee not included). If you order more than one bottle, then the remaining unopened bottles will need to be sent back for a refund on the entire order. For example, if you order three bottles and decide after using the first bottle that it is not a fit, the remaining two unopened bottles will need to be returned for a full refund on the entire order.
How long does it take for delivery?
All orders placed on Sunday to Thursday are shipped within twenty-four hours. USA orders are shipped by USPS priority mail and delivered on an average of five business days. Orders to Canada are delivered within 7-10 days on average. Orders sent to Europe and Australia generally take two weeks and orders sent to Asia take 3-4 weeks. Delays can result from customs taking longer to clear orders.
Does your company support any causes or charities?
Yes, I am a strong financial supporter for many charities including Project Child Save to help save kids from human trafficking, The Warrior Angels Foundation to help soldiers with PTSD due to traumatic brain injuries Voice For The Animals, to help homeless animals and animal rights legislation, and No Dogs Left Behind to help rescue animals from the horrific dog meat trade. When you support my company you indirectly support all of these fantastic organizations and many others.

I suffer from Endometriosis and I also have an MTHFR gene mutation which causes my body to reabsorb excess estrogen instead of excreting it as normal. This product has really helped and caused a noticeable difference in the way I feel! I am also being monitored for an unusually high white blood cell count due to inflammation. I am due to have more blood work done in a month so fingers crossed that this supplement along with a healthy Keto/paleo type diet will help significantly my WBC and Estrogen levels. I would highly recommend this product to any woman who suffers from estrogen dominance and/or Endometriosis.–Kathleen
This supplement helped balance my estrogen and it only took 2-3 months of taking it regularly! it regulated my menstrual cycles and helped with my acne I was getting from the excessive estrogen.
