苯甲酸酯（Paraben）防腐劑的隱藏危機：你每天都在接觸的環境荷爾蒙
你知道嗎？你每天擦的乳液、防曬、洗面乳，甚至你習慣使用的洗髮精、濕紙巾、防腐眼藥水，可能都含有一種叫「苯甲酸酯（Paraben）」的防腐劑。 這些苯甲酸酯（Paraben），包括甲酯（Methylparaben）、乙酯（Ethylparaben）、丙酯（Propylparaben）、丁酯（Butylparaben），廣泛應用於美妝與個人清潔用品中，是最常見的「環境荷爾蒙」之一。 什麼是苯甲酸酯（Paraben）？認識這個無所不在的防腐劑 化學結構與特性 苯甲酸酯（Paraben）是對羥基苯甲酸（para-hydroxybenzoic acid）的酯類衍生物，因其優異的抗菌防腐效果、低成本、無色無味等特性，自1920年代起就被廣泛應用於各種產品中。 常見種類 甲酯 (Methylparaben) 乙酯 (Ethylparaben) 丙酯 (Propylparaben) 丁酯...

YOUNGER遇見功能醫學：重新定義個人化健康管理
當傳統醫學專注於「治療疾病」時，功能醫學關注的是「優化健康」。在這個健康意識抬頭的時代，越來越多人開始意識到，真正的健康管理不該只是等待疾病發生後再治療，而是要從根本預防、從系統優化。YOUNGER將功能醫學的深度智慧，結合現代科技的便利性，為每個人打造專屬的健康管理方案，讓我們深入了解YOUNGER如何透過功能醫學的視角，重新定義你的健康管理。 生理年齡的科學真相：你的身體比實際年齡年輕還是衰老？ 什麼是生理年齡？身體年齡的真實面貌 你知道嗎？一個40歲的人，生理年齡可能只有35歲，也可能已經50歲。生理年齡（Biological Age）是指身體實際的老化程度，它反映了你的細胞、組織和器官的功能狀態。與出生證明上的數字不同，生理年齡是可以改變的——這正是YOUNGER要幫助你實現的目標。 根據2019年加州大學發表在《Aging Cell》期刊的突破性研究，透過特定的生活方式調整，受試者在一年內成功將生理年齡平均逆轉2.5歲。這項研究證明了一個重要概念：老化不是單向的，它是可逆的。 生理年齡的測量指標：從細胞到系統的全面評估 現代功能醫學透過多項生物標記來評估生理年齡，這些指標涵蓋了從微觀到宏觀的各個層面： 細胞層面指標 端粒長度：細胞老化的直接指標，端粒就像是細胞的「生命時鐘」 DNA甲基化模式：基因表達的調控機制，影響細胞功能的關鍵 粒線體功能：細胞能量工廠的效率，決定你的活力水平 系統功能指標...

什麼是鄰苯二甲酸酯？塑化劑為什麼讓人那麼怕？
說到「環境毒素」，你可能會想到空氣污染、水質髒，但有一種你每天幾乎都會碰到的化學物質，名字有點繞口──鄰、苯、二、甲、酸、酯，英文叫 Phthalates（塑化劑的一種）！不要以為這跟你沒關係，從保鮮膜、指甲油到外送便當盒，甚至你每天洗頭、擦乳液用的東西，它都可能藏在裡面。 鄰苯二甲酸酯到底是什麼？ 簡單說，Phthalates（鄰苯二甲酸酯）是一種「塑化劑」，主要功能是讓塑膠變得更軟、更有彈性，也會讓香味停留得更久。這種成分廣泛存在於我們的生活中，卻被稱為「偽裝荷爾蒙的化學間諜」。 它會進入身體、模仿我們的荷爾蒙運作，造成內分泌干擾。長期暴露可能會影響生殖系統、代謝、免疫，甚至可能增加癌症風險。 哪些東西最常出現鄰苯二甲酸酯？ 這不是工廠才會有的東西，我們每天可能都會碰到！ 生活用品 可能含有的鄰苯二甲酸酯類型 常見功能 香水、髮膠、定型液 DEP、DMP 固定香味、保持噴霧效果...

從功能醫學角度揭密：為什麼越來越多男性面臨雌激素困擾
35歲的陳先生最近總是覺得累，明明睡了8小時，早上起床還是沒精神。更困擾的是，這半年來褲子越來越緊，明明沒吃更多，肚子卻一天天變大。 直到公司健檢發現他的體脂肪已經超過28%，而且胸部有些微腫脹。進一步的荷爾蒙檢測顯示，他的雌激素（雌二醇）數值竟然高達45 pg/ml，遠超過男性正常範圍的10-40 pg/ml。更糟的是，他的睪酮只有280 ng/dl，已經接近低睪酮的診斷標準。 「醫師，我一個大男人怎麼會雌激素過高？」這是陳先生最想問的問題，也是越來越多現代男性面臨的困擾。 打破迷思：男性體內也需要雌激素平衡 雌激素在男性體內扮演重要角色 男性體內會自然產生雌激素，它對骨骼健康、心血管功能和大腦認知都有重要作用。正常情況下，男性的雌激素應該維持在適當的低水平，與睪酮保持理想比例。 然而，現代生活中的各種因素正在打破這個平衡，導致越來越多男性面臨雌激素過高的問題 現代男性荷爾蒙危機的真實數據 📊...
