The essential elements to maintaining high levels of testosterone are diet and exercise.
However things are a little more complex than just that and understanding the mechanics of maintaining our testosterone level makes the process much easier to master.
At the diet level, the greedy and profit-hungry corporations that produce our foods have caused much damage to our hormone levels because of the chemicals, additives, preservatives, colorings, taste-enhancers, growth hormones and pesticides, as well as the extra fats and sugars that have been added during the food processing stages and then marketed to us with pretty pictures designed to mislead us into thinking the stuff they call food is somehow healthy.
It is mostly their idea of food that has caused the low levels of testosterone we all suffer from now.
So, the imperative is to move towards an organically grown food diet so as to end the damage done to our hormone levels.
However, because of the damage already done, we must add to our diet testosterone boosting supplements much like we must also take a multi vitamin to compensate for those compounds which are missing from our food intake.
At the exercise level, when we do undertake physical exertion on a regular basis, it tells our brain that our bodies need to produce more testosterone to maintain the new level of activity.
Related to this is the specific type of exercise that me must do.
When our testicles make the testosterone and it is carried around in our bloodstream, it is not immediately available for use.
Rather it is protected and in storage by being bound to various proteins that allow it to dissolve in blood for transport and to stop it being broken down by the liver and kidneys.
However, when we do muscle burning exercise, it is the pain we feel in our muscles that tells our brain that our body needs some of the stored testosterone to be set free so that it can be used to deal with the stress.
