In this post, I am going to cover how to lower SHBG and show how this can naturally increase free testosterone levels.
When a man does take the step of getting his testosterone checked the results he usually will receive will be for total testosterone.
Now the way to look at total testosterone is that it's basically all the forms of testosterone you have in your body.
Some of this testosterone will be bound to SHBG (Sex Hormone Binding Globulin), some will be bound to a protein called albumin, the rest is free testosterone that is not bound to anything at all.
Because the testosterone that is bound is not readily available it can be useful to see it as a storehouse of testosterone.
Free testosterone is all the testosterone that is not bound to anything and flows through your blood every day.
This article is going to look at the benefits of DIM for men, and show how this compound can increase free testosterone.
For those of you new to the world of natural testosterone supplementation, there’s a newcomer in the industry that’s bound to change the game and this compound is called DIM.
DIM stands for 3,3’ Diindolylmethane, a compound derived from the digestion of indole-3-carbinol – an antioxidant found in cruciferous vegetables such as broccoli, cauliflower, and cabbage.
Aside from having antioxidant, anti-cancerogenic and anti-atherogenic effects, the benefits of DIM for men also include naturally increasing testosterone and lowering estrogen levels.
Did you know there are two powerful vitamins that can seriously boost your testosterone levels in just a few short weeks?
A large pool of evidence is now showing that a few select vitamins can have a much greater impact on your testosterone than others.
One of the best ways to increase your testosterone is to give your body the vitamins it needs to manufacture these anabolic hormones and to correct any vitamin deficiencies you might have.
In this post, we are going to go over what these two vitamins are and how they can help you.
But before we take a look at the vitamins I want to first explain something to you
This post is going to look at the link between turmeric and testosterone and prove how the consumption of turmeric can be very beneficial to the human body.
Known as a powerful superfood and given the name “holy powder” in India, turmeric is a powerful compound that can boost T levels for many reasons which you will find out about in this article.
Recent research states that almost 80% of adult men suffer from the symptoms of low testosterone.
So it is important to look for ways to increase your testosterone levels. And one of the best ways is the consumption of turmeric.
Turmeric is highly anti-estrogenic and can have positive effects on testosterone levels. So keep reading this article to find out about the power of turmeric.
Continuing with my mini-series of articles on the role that some vitamins have on testosterone levels, it’s now time to take a look at the link between Vitamin C and testosterone and find out how it can benefit us.
Vitamin C also known as Ascorbic Acid is probably one of the vitamins you have heard about the most. One famous scientist (Linus Pauling) went so far as to say it was the cure for almost everything.
While this has obviously not been proven by modern science, the growing body of research advocating Vitamin C’s positive role in a number of bodily functions does not hurt Pauling’s bold claims.
In this post, I am going to be looking at the relationship between prolactin and testosterone levels.
There can be many reasons for low testosterone such as chronic stress and high levels of estrogen.
But did you know that there is also a hormone called prolactin that can have a big impact on your testosterone levels?
Prolactin is a hormone produced by the pituitary gland and sent into the bloodstream.
It is also a hormone that triggers the production of milk in pregnant women. So as you can imagine, you don’t want this hormone to be too high in the body.
But that’s just part of the story…
Unsurprisingly studies have confirmed that many sexual problems are related to high prolactin levels. But there is more to the relationship between prolactin and testosterone than just this.
So go through this post if you want to know more about prolactin and testosterone levels.
