SUMMARY: - As you know, exercising regularly can help you avoid many diseases

connected with a sedentary lifestyle.

Surprisingly, it will also boost testosterone levels! - The level of testosterone
in your body depends on how
stressed you are. Here is the connection: if you're suffering from long-term
stress, the level of cortisol
(a stress hormone) goes up. The higher the level of cortisol, the lower the level
of testosterone. - According
to one famous saying, you are what you eat. Interestingly, your testosterone level
also depends on what you eat
. Both severe dieting and overeating can disrupt testosterone production. - The
importance of vitamin D has
come to light in recent years. It’s no wonder, as it has a lot of advantages and
health benefits. For example,
it works as a natural booster of testosterone. - Getting the proper amount of
high-quality sleep is a necessary
condition for increasing testosterone levels. Sure, everybody has their own
perfect sleep duration.
But a 2011 study into the effect that one week of sleep restriction had on the
testosterone levels of
healthy young men showed interesting results. - Certain vitamins and
supplements can also boost the production
of testosterone. For example, magnesium supplements will restore the levels of
testosterone if the
cause of the drop is a deficiency of this mineral. - There are also herbs and
spices that can effectively
boost your testosterone level. The best ones are ashwagandha and ginger. -
Testosterone levels can be
negatively affected by estrogen-like chemicals. If you’re overexposed to
parabens, BPA, and some chemicals
often found in plastic, try to reduce this exposure to a minimum. - When
your doctor prescribes medicine,
you can be sure that it’ll help you deal with a particular health
condition. Unfortunately, medications
are a pretty common reason for low testosterone levels. - According to
several studies, there's
a connection between how much a man weighs and his testosterone levels.
Men who are a bit on the
heavy side have less testosterone than those whose weight is within the
norms.
