6 ways to boost your testosterone level.
Hello friends!let us talk about testosterone.
Testosterone is a male hormone which is responsiblefor the growth of muscle
mass. It is responsible for the growth of hair on your body. It improves bone
density and strength. Our body produces testosterone naturally. But because of
poor lifestyle, low test levels in males is a common problem. Because of which
they find it difficult to build muscles. They start to lose out hair at a very
early age and many other problems. Some people inject testosterone in the form
of drugs. We must know that once we start doing this,our body stops producing
testosterone naturally. This is not an ideal condition and it has a lot of
side effects.
So in this article i'm going to share With you 6 ways by which you can boost testosterone naturally.
number one way by which you can take care of your testosterone levels is by
taking care of your diet and nutrition.
The foods that we eat impact our hormones in a positive or a negative way.
Needless to say, one should maintain a balanced diet. Specifically talking
about testosterone, there are three ingredients that should be in your diet
on a daily basis.
•These are Zinc
•Vitamin D and Fats.
Foods which are rich in Zinc are Spinach,Kidney beans, Flaxseeds, Garlic,
Peanuts, Eggs, Brown rice etc.
Talking about Vitamin D, the best natural source available to us is
Sunlight. So one can sit in the sun for 15-20 minutes on a daily basis.
However, the foods rich in Vitamin D are Mushrooms,Tuna, Salmon, Eggs, Milk
etc.
Fats, specially saturated fat, is very helpful in boosting the testosterone
levels. However, one should keep in mind that the daily recommended intake
of saturated fat is not more than 20 grams. Some of the foods which are rich
in saturatedfats are Egg yolks, Chicken, Coconut, Paneer and other dairy
products. If you will include these foods in your diet,you will see that
your test levels will start increasing.
Second is exercise.
The right type of exercise can have a dramatice effect on the production of
testosterone. Specially weight training, when done even3 to 4 times a week
can boost your testosterone levels considerably. Studies have suggested that
the higher the intensity of workout is, the greater will the response of
testosterone. So doing short workouts of not more than 45minutes to 1 hour
will least amount of rest periods in between is very beneficial. Also, do
not miss a leg day. Legs have the biggest muscles in your body and training
them on a regular basis can boost your testosterone levels substantially. So
weight training or any form of resistancetraining is one of the best ways to
increase the production of testosterone.
Third is sleep.
When it comes to sleep, it is always aboutquality and not quantity. After
you wake up in the morning from a goodsound sleep, your test levels are at
peak and slowly they drop by the evening. So, I would suggest you to have a
sound sleepfor about 7 to 8 hours. In order to have deep sleep, you can do
two things, one is that you maintain sleep timings. Other is that you stay
away from phone, laptop and other electronic gadgets half an hour before you
sleep. Believe me, it will help you sleep very easily and you will have a
sound sleep. This in turn will boost your testosteronelevels rapidly.
Forth is reduce stress.
When we are stressed out, our body produces a hormone called cortisol.
Cortisol is inversely proportional to testosterone. That means the higher
the level of cortisolin the body, the lower will be the testosterone. Apart
from this, there are many disadvantagesof having a high cortisol levels in
the body. So one should make an effort to reduce thestress levels. You can
workout, meditate or the best wayis to spend sometime doing something that
you really love.
Now, there are 3 things that you should avoid or keep them in moderation
when it comes to boosting your testosterone levels.
These are alcohol, cigarette and processedsugur.
All three effect the body in such a way that it starts producing less amount
of testosterone. Next is lose weight. If you are overweight, shedding a few
kiloscan increase your testosterone levels. According to studies, overweight
men are morelikely to have low testosterone levels. So basically, if you
follow the points that we have already discussed, you will be able to
optimise your bodyweight. So friends, these were some of the best and the
most effective ways to boost your testosterone levels naturally. I hope you
