If commercial TV is any guide, then Low T must be sweeping the nation. You can't tell what it is, but hey, if you are a guy, it must be a terrible new disorder. Thanks to commercial TV, men are self diagnosing a condition and then looking to solve this issue themselves.
Low T is short and more easily pronounced than low testosterone. It is not new, it is not a disorder, it is the natural progression of aging if you are a man. Your testosterone levels are at their peak in your late teens though your middle twenties. From there, it gradually drops for the rest of your life. This is a natural process, it is what happens, so do not let the commercials make you think you are different or alone. You can ask your health care provider to run a test, or try one of the OTC tests that are available.
There are several supplements that support higher testosterone, having many studies and years of use, they give reliable results. Among the most common is Tribulus, an herbal supplement that causes the body to produce more testosterone. The next to look for would be Fenugreek, another herbal that is most known for the increase in milk production it causes in nursing mothers. Oddly, an extract of fenugreek also causes an increase in testosterone.
The latest and most popular supplement to enter the testosterone games is D-Aspartic Acid. It is an amino acid that has been shown in clinical studies to raise testosterone levels by 40% in as little as ten days. Those kind of significant results ensure its popularity with exercise enthusiasts.
I would look for a combination supplement that has these ingredients in it to raise my testosterone levels. Higher testosterone makes it easier to lose fat and build muscle, increase competitive energy, and as well as other more personal advantages.
One last thing about raising testosterone levels: There can be side-effects. Funny how those are not mentioned in the commercials. They can include higher DHT and anger issues. While rare, you should be aware and take steps to prevent issues.
What about testosterone boosters for women? Are there potential weight loss and/or muscle building benefits?
ReplyDeleteWomen will gain similar benefits from increasing testosterone, both strength gains and fat loss. Keep in mind, it is not recommended for women who are pregnant or going through menopause. Women will also experience the more personal benefits I mentioned.
