4 Nutrition, which Enhance Male Hormones

Jakarta, Testosterone is one of the important hormones in the human body, especially the men. These hormones tended to decrease with age. Fortunately, this can be avoided, because hormone levels influenced largely by the food.


Testosterone or male hormone is often called one of the main hormone responsible for muscle growth, libido (sexual health and mood), and for the organ as a whole and bone health.

There are several types of foods that can increase testosterone levels, but some of these foods may be restrictions on people with certain conditions, such as heart disease, diabetes and obesity.

Quoted from Livestrong, Saturday (08/28/2010), the following four types of nutrients that can increase testosterone levels:

1. Coconut oil

Consisting of coconut oil or MCT Medium Chain triglycerides. This mechanism allows the body to absorb the coconut oil in order to prevent the storage as fat, even encouraging the removal of fat in the body.

This is because the ability of MCT to bypass the lymphatic system when ingested, unlike other fat and allows rapid absorption by the liver.

This allows for the direct oxidation and rapidly converted to energy, similar to the effects of simple carbohydrates. Increase in fuel and energy can extend endurance and improve overall testosterone.

2. Garlic

All the hormones in the body are directly regulated each other. Therefore, the decrease in testosterone is often a shift in the response of other hormones. One of the hormones responsible for the level of testosterone in the body is cortisol. Garlic has been shown to regulate cortisol levels and thereby also increases testosterone levels.

3. Broccoli

Another hormone which is more clearly associated with testosterone is estrogen. High levels of estrogen can decrease testosterone in the body.

Broccoli contains high levels of indole, the phytochemical that helps the body to convert into another form of estrogen, which increases testosterone.

In addition, broccoli contain chromium which can regulate blood glucose, calcium regulating hormones to prevent further fat storage.

4. Red meat

Red meat such as beef and lamb has been proven to increase testosterone levels. Zinc deficiency is a major reason for low testosterone, so the high concentration of zinc found in red meat is very useful.

According to research from Harvard Medical School, zinc supplements could increase free testosterone levels between 8 to 14 percent. This is because zinc can play an important role in modulating serum testosterone in normal men.

In addition, saturated fat and cholesterol found in red meat can be quickly converted into testosterone in the body. Eggs can have the same role, as well as by increasing the body's cholesterol levels.
