According to information published in the Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism (JCEM), low testosterone reduces sexual desire, sperm production and promotes the appearance of erectile dysfunction, but how does this hormone decrease?
A study presented at the annual meeting of the Endocrine Society It states that excessive intake of sugar-containing foods temporarily reduces testosterone levels.
Scientists explain that a diet high in sugars lowers the levels of the hormone, so it affects erections and sexual appetite, because it increases the levels of triglycerides and decreases a protein called globulin linked to the sex hormone SHBG.
They explain that when this protein is reduced, the body suspends the production of testosterone.
In the JCEM it is explained that testosterone is the most important sex hormone that men have, because of it depend some characteristics of them, such as hair, the development of muscles and bones, the production of sperm, as well as to maintain the sexual desire
There are different methods to promote the production of testosterone such as injections, patches, gelatins and pills, however, you should consult a specialist to provide the appropriate treatment to each person.
In addition, try to lead a healthy lifestyle with a balanced diet rich in vegetables, performing some physical activity and maintain a healthy and protected sex life. And you, have you experienced any reduction in testosterone?
