10 OF THE BEST TESTOSTERONE-BOOSTING FOODS

10 OF THE BEST TESTOSTERONE-BOOSTING FOODS

Hormone therapy is being overprescribed. Swap needle for fork with our bulked-up ingredients list

Like it or lump it, your testosterone is the foundation of your existence. It helps build muscle, affects your sex drive, your bone strength, your heart, your memory and your penis size.

So, it pays to give your T-levels a little attention now and again. However, for some middle-aged men, a certain over-attention and use of testosterone as a 'lifestyle drug' has led to larger problems, according to Imperial College London. If you think T-levels need work, it's probably best to avoid using it in drug form, right?

Instead, invest in these handy testosterone hacks for a better body, a better you and - you guessed it - a better penis.

Grapes for more active sperm

Eat a bunch of red grapes daily to give your own low-hanging fruit a boost: the skins contain resveratrol, which makes for hardier sperm. Chinese researchers found the equivalent of 500mg – roughly the amount in 5-10g of grape skins – was enough to raise testosterone levels and improve epididymal motility (your sperm’s ability to swim).

Tuna for a higher sex drive

Tuna’s ‘fragrance’ may not be ideal for a first date, but its vitamin D content is. The vitamin bolsters testosterone by up to 90%, found a study at Graz Medical University, Austria, slashing levels of libido-killing chemical Sex Hormone-Binding Globulin (SHBG). A can of tuna contains 100% of your RDA.

Pomegranate to fight impotence

Some say it was the Biblical forbidden fruit, and old Adam could have done a lot worse. The International Journal of Impotence Research reports that 47% of impotent men found their condition improved after a daily glass of antioxidant-rich pomegranate juice. You don’t need a serpent to tell you that’s a good thing.

Venison for muscle growth

Veggies look away: “A meat-free diet can lower testosterone by 14%,” says Carruthers. “Lack of protein boosts testosterone-de-activating hormones.” On the other hand, a University of Utah study found a diet overly rich in the sat fats in beef and lamb can also make testosterone dip. The middle ground is venison. Stag-gering.

Garlic for muscle maintenance

Banish vampires and weak muscles alike:garlic contains allicin, a compound that lowers levels of ‘stress hormone’ cortisol. “Cortisol competes with testosterone for the same sites within muscle cells,” says nutrition consultant Alan Gordon. Ditch the cortisol, then the testosterone can get to work. Garlic’s more potent uncooked.

Honey for better blood flow

For extra buzz in the bedroom, dip into honey. It contains the mineral boron, linked to high testosterone. Honey is also rich in nitric oxide, says Gordon: “This is key in opening up blood vessels that create erections. Four teaspoons of honey can boost nitric oxide levels by 50%.”

Milk for a lean physique

Proof we are supposed to have hard bodies, University of Pittsburgh researchers found that fat blokes have more oestrogen. Cut the blubber by boosting your testosterone levels with milk: its amino acids boost production of anabolic hormones, which in turn build muscle and trim fat. The Department of Health recommends three 200ml glasses a day.

Eggs for a hormone boost

Eggs really do have a sunny side. “The yolk’s cholesterol is the precursor for testosterone,” says clinical nutritionist Kim Pearson. Don’t worry about your heart: a University of Connecticut study found that study subjects could eat three eggs a day without affecting cholesterol levels.

Cabbage to flush out female hormones

King of the veg patch, cabbage is full of a chemical called indole-3-carbinol, which rids your blood of girly hormones. Healthy men took 500mg daily for a week at Rockefeller University; their oestrogen levels halved, making testosterone more effective. It’s time to become more of a man at meal times.

How to Shed 8 Kilograms in Just 7 Days

If you’re ready, here’s the seven-day diet plan that can help reduce your body weight by five to eight kilograms.

Day 1: Eat Nothing but Fruits
The first day should be completely about fruits. When you are hungry, snack on some fruits. Don’t eat anything – not even vegetables or a small piece of chocolate. The best fruits include cantaloupe, watermelon, strawberries, peaches, and custard apples. If you get thirsty, drink plenty of water, at least eight glasses. Remember that you can eat any fruit you want, but skip the bananas.

Day 2: It’s All-Vegetable Day

Day two is just like day one, but instead of fruits, you should only consume veggies. You can eat them raw or cooked, but don’t add oil when you cook them. Once again, drink eight to 12 glass of water whenever you are thirsty.

Day 3: Combine Fruits and Vegetables

On this day, you can eat any fruit and vegetable you want, but you can’t touch bananas and potatoes. Once again, drink the same amount of water whenever you need to quench your thirst.

Day 4: Banana and Milk

This may be a surprise for you because since day one you have avoided bananas, but now you should eat them. You need to eat at least eight bananas and drink three to four glasses of milk.

Day 5: Rice and Tomatoes

This day is called the feast day because you can have a cup of rice for lunch and eat six tomatoes throughout the whole day. You need to increase your water intake on day five. This is because the body will produce more uric acid due to the tomatoes you will eat, so drink up to 15 glasses of water.

Day 6: Rice and Veggies

Here’s another feast day in this diet plan where you can have one cup of rice during lunchtime and choose any vegetable you like. You can go back to drinking eight to 12 glasses of water on this day.

Day 7: The Finale

Finally, you have reached the end of the diet where you consume one cup of rice, vegetables, and fruit juice. The fruit juice you drink will flush out the toxins in your system, which makes this a perfect way to end the diet plan.

The GM diet is designed to help people lose weight fast without starving themselves. The key is to eat the right foods whenever you are hungry, which makes this diet plan not only effective, but also a healthy way to lose weight.
