Man, it can feel like you're doomed to suffer in silence but you may be surprised to know that Man-Boobs also known as "moobs" are a HUGE problem here in the States.
The condition - to give its full name - is gynecomastia.
Gynecomastia is caused by an increase in glandular breast tissue in men rather than a build-up of fatty tissue. It is caused when your body produces a relatively high level of estrogen.
It may sound unusual, but here the facts tell a different story.
A quarter of all guys ages 50 to 80 years old suffer from man breasts, according to the Mayo Clinic. Another study puts the figure at 30% across the whole male population.
It's a common problem and it's growing thanks to a number of factors - some of which are beyond your control. Your diet, your lifestyle and even your regular medication can contribute to moobs (a staggering 25% of gynecomastia is a result of taking medication).
This may sound like bad news... it may sound like you're powerless to act, but it's not. It's a wake-up call.
In the next few minutes, I want to give you the knowledge you need to make a change. And it starts with tearing down some of the most damaging myths about this condition you can read about on the next page.

Using their elongated claws, bears dig deep trenches in search of burrowing animals and nests as well as roots, bulbs, and insects. Bears can detect the scent of food from up to eighteen miles away; because of their immense size, they often scavenge new kills, driving away the predators (including packs of wolves and human hunters) in the process. The sense of smell is less devel
oped in the catarrhine primates, and nonexistent in cetaceans, which compensate with a well-developed sense of taste. In some strepsirrhines, such as the red-bellied lemur, scent glands occur atop the head. In many species, smell is highly tuned to pheromones; a male silkworm moth, for example, can sense a single molecule of bombykol. Fish, too, have a well-developed sense of smell, even though they inhabit an aquatic environment.[citation needed] Salmon utilize their sense of smell to identify and return to their home stream waters. Catfish use their sense of smell to identify other individual catfish and to maintain a social hierarchy. Many fishes use the se
