Man Boobs: They're No Laughing Matter
There are millions of men out there who have man boobs, and are embarrassed to take off there shirt in public.
The good news is that getting rid of those man boobs is not as hard as you might think. I am going to discuss a few treatment options that you can used to finally get rid of those man boobs once and for all.
The Two Types of Man Boobs
There are two causes for the development man boobs.
First is called Gynecomastia, I know sounds bad, but in reality this condition is most prevalent in younger men in their pre-teens before the on set of puberty. It is thought to be caused by low levels of testosterone and elevated levels of estrogen in the body that promotes the development of breast tissue.
Fortunately, once the onset of puberty hits, that breast tissue will be reduced and the man boobs will disappear. However there are some men that never lose this breast tissue and continue to have man boobs in to there adult life.
The Second type of man boobs are known as Pseudogynecomastia and can have many different causes.
Drug Use: Using certain illegal and prescription drugs can cause the hormones in the body to get out of whack and men can stop producing as much testosterone and start developing more estrogen. This can cause the development of more breast tissue in and give the appearance of man boobs.
Being Overweight: This is the primary cause of pseudogynecomastia and and also the easiest to treat. Most men store fat in the upper body and develop the infamous "Beer Gut" but fat is sometimes stored in the chest as well causing boob like breasts on men.
How to Treat Real Gynecomastia
Real Man Boobs caused by gynecomastia are usually taking care of by nature through the puberty process. So if you are a young man between the ages of 12 and 17 you probably have nothing to worry about and they will just go away naturally. You can help speed up the process by eating right and working out as you get older to build up muscle in your body and lose any excess fat you may have.
If you are over the age of eight teen and are not over weight I would suggest talking to a doctor and getting there opinion as to what is causing your moobs. There could be other more serious issues at play and a doctor can help rule out those possibilities.

Treating Pseudogynecomastia: Caused by Drug Use
If your are on any type of illegal drugs not prescribed to you by your doctor, stop taking them immediately. If your are addicted then get help from a good rehab program to get you off of the drugs and get your bodies hormones back to normal.
If you are taking prescribed medication, talk to your doctor and discuss the side effects and changes they may have on your hormone levels. Tell them about you man boobs and how they are affecting you. You prescriptions may be the culprit and your doctor may be able to find an alternative that does not cause you to develop man boobs. Having good communication is key to getting the best help.
Treating Pseudogynecomastia: Caused by Being Over Weight
Again this is the most common cause of man boobs in adult men and the easiest to treat. Generally, the right diet and proper exercises are all you need to get rid of those man boobs.
In today's age, time is precious and many of us don't have much of it to eat let alone cook at home. So we eat a lot of fast foods or out at restaurants for the majority of our meals. These foods contain high amounts of fat and preservatives that cause our bodies to become acidic and store more and more fat. Also, we may only eat once, or at most twice a day and this causes our metabolism to slow down an burn less calories and fat. Ever know a skinny person that seems to always be eating but never gains any weight, well they have a high metabolism and use a lot of energy through out out the day. That could be you, with the right guidance.
Fortunately, there a couple of programs that have been developed specifically for the reason of treating pseudogynecomastia that teach you how to eat and exercise the right ways to maximize your fat loss and get rid of your man boobs once and for all.
Solutions #1: Chest Coach System
The Chest Coach System by Cliff Manchaster is one of my favorites because of the amount of helpful information you get about gynecomastia and how to treat it.
Cliff walks you through the whole process of why you have man boobs and then teaches you the proper dieting and exercising techniques to lose you man boobs quickly and effectively.
For instances did you know our bodies PH levels are designed to be alkaline, but almost everything we eat in our busy lives cause us to be more acidic. This causes us to gain weight, but it is possible to get back to alkaline levels by eating the right foods more often through the day, turning our bodies back to fat burning machines.

I really don't like using the term dieting because it implies short term and is easily excused. I prefer to say eating healthy because that implies "life long". You are going to have moments of weakness, why not plan for it, if I quit every time I went "off diet" I never would have lost any weight.
"There is No Try, Only Do or Do Not" Ok, there is the geek in me, but that quote from Yoda has every bit of meaning here.
