Raise Natural Testosterone Levels
Natural Ways to Increase Testosterone
Before you go spend a fortune on hormone replacement therapy, there are a number of changes you can make to your lifestyle that will help increase terstosterone levels in your body. Read on:
General lifestyle
- Lose weight: Having lots of extra fat on your body keep estrogen levels high and testosterone levels low. Start exercising!
- Don't overdo it with the booze: Too much alcohol can really lower testosterone levels among other unwanted effects.
- Eat regularly: Once your stomach starts growling at you, you've probably waited too long to eat since your last meal. Eating in regular intervals (5-6 times per day) keeps testosterone production at maximum.
- Get enough rest: Running on less than enough sleep will cause your testosterone production to drop as your body isn't fully recouperating
Diet
- Eat enough fat?!?! Your body needs enough dietary fat to produce testosterone. Your diet should includeabout 30% fat, and not too much less.
- Aw nuts: Peanuts contain a good amount of monosaturated fats, which cause the testes to produce more testosterone.
- More vegetables: Broccoli, cabbage and Brussels sprouts are all rich in indole-3-carbinol (I3C), which is a chemical that turns "bad" estrogens that decrease testosterone production into "good" estrogens that help regulate its production. Other I3C-rich veggies include: collards, cress, kale, kohlrabi, mustard greens, bak choy, radishes, turnip greens and watercress.
- Meat: Quality lean meat such as fish, poultry or lean cuts of beef will help build muscle
Training
- Tough exercises: Strenuous weight lifting will increase testosterone levels. Compound (more than one muscle group) exercises work even better, i.e. squats, deadlifts, pull-ups/chin-ups.
- 3 sets or more: Research suggests that doing 3 sets per exercise increases testosterone levels more than doing just 1 or 2.
- 5-6 reps per set: Lifting with heavier weights for lower reps has shown to increase testosterone more than higher reps with lower weight.
