Testosterone adjust with diet and herbs
The hormone testosterone is called «gasoline» men. Low levels of testosterone in the body is fraught with impotence and infertility. In addition, use of drugs that increase levels of testosterone, a long time already become one of the methods in the fight for medals in professional sports. Doping control is precisely designed to identify drugs that stimulate the production of male sex hormones.
Hormone therapy helps in some cases to restore reproductive function, but the pharmacology, based on chemistry – a double edged sword. Artificially high levels of testosterone with the help of chemical agents sometimes jeopardizes the health of men and athletes. Meanwhile, there are enough resources of natural origin.
Paramount importance for human nutrition. There are products stimulate the production of testosterone, but is that stimulate estrogen, the female sex hormone.
To begin with alcoholic beverages. Alcohol in small doses stimulates the production of hormones. But there is particular.
Pure or diluted ethylene – vodka, alcohol and beverages containing alcohol derived from grapes, apricot, mulberry, etc. – Natural wine, brandy, vodka, chacha, etc. stimulate the release of testosterone. Then, as the products of fermentation (beer, el) stimulate the production of the female hormone estrogen. In addition, hops added to beer by itself inhibits the production of testosterone. Results of long-term use of these types of drinks are often affected in the figure on the areas of fat deposits on the feminine type.
The situation is similar with the products. Great importance for the hormonal status of man is the quality of protein consumed. Animal proteins are full and contain all the essential amino acids, in contrast to the proteins of plant origin. Therefore it is very important for men to eat meat and how it is more natural, the less fat the better. This fact is well illustrated by the history of civilizations. Largest empire created people consuming meat. Most impressive was the empire of Genghis Khan’s warriors who were fed exclusively on meat. His soldiers were distinguished courage and fearlessness. In contrast, civilization, prefer vegetable food all the time fighting for liberation, such as India.
With fish and seafood is more complicated. On the one hand seafood contain zinc and other substances, has a positive influence on men’s health. On the other hand, not all seafood and meat is far not all fish contain complete proteins. However, it was some seafood as a stimulator of testosterone out of competition. For example, the meat of some species of sharks (for those who live in Australia). Scientific fact – the earthly creature, possessing the highest level of testosterone is the male roundnose sharks.
Upset supporters of vegetarianism other scientific fact. For vegans one of the main sources of protein are legumes. However, it was beans contain fitoestrageny, ie compounds resembling the female genital organs. They are especially numerous in soy. Therefore, those who engage in bodybuilding, I would not recommend to use the protein from soy, benefit from it will not. And why should not men eat sausage, sausages and other semi-finished products contained a lot of soy.
In general, the diet should be balanced and contain enough high-grade protein, vitamins and trace elements. Some vitamins – vitamin E, vitamin B, vitamin C – especially important for testosterone production, just as zinc and selenium (trace).
With regard to plants, stimulating testosterone production, then out of competition here are adaptogens: – Aralia Manchu, devil’s high, Eleutherococcus senticosus, Rhodiola rosea, Schizandra Chinese, zhentshen and some others.
Russian healers Experience shows that a good showing the roots of crucifers: parsnip and horseradish. Slightly weaker than the root of parsley. Not for nothing horseradish called Russian ginseng. Personally, I am an ardent supporter of horseradish.
There are other plants stimulate testosterone production, many of them ekszoticheskogo origin. But I would like to emphasize particularly creeping Tribulus Tribulus terrestris L. On the basis of Tribulus created a lot of preparations stimulating and returning potency. One of them – Tribestan, which for its natural hormonal properties like athletes.
There is a much simpler product-cheaper in the form of alcoholic extract of Tribulus – Tribusponin. It is noteworthy that the agricultural producers of South Russia as a valuable plant is considered to be weeds, contaminating plantations, orchards, vineyards, meadows and pastures. Besides valuable vegetable raw materials affects the quality of animal feed. In high doses, Tribulus poisonous, so the warning southerners in a position to procure Tribulus own – consult with your doctor!
From bee products on testosterone positively influence pollen and ambrosia (perga). It is understandable – pollen represents the male sex hormones of plants, which are collected by bees. Ambrosia (perga)- this is nothing like modificed pollen. Therefore pollen also found its application in sports nutrition and in the treatment of prostatit, infertility and impotence.
Thus it turns out that to maintain the level of testosterone are many natural products. And yet I can not mention the lifestyle. Bad habits, bad environment depress overall hormone levels in general, and testosterone in particular. Conversely, exercise leads to its increase. Especially useful for strength training, running, martial arts – that is, those types which are realized male qualities, honed over the millennia. And if you disappear for days at a computer in a smoky room, and with a beer, there will not save you, nor Tribestan, or flower pollen. Will help for some time, and then things will go back to square one. You either need to change their way of life, or use them constantly.
