How to Increase Testosterone Naturally
Testosterone is essential to a man's physical health, sex drive, and confidence. In addition to TRT, there are several natural ways to increase Testosterone (T) levels:
2. Get quality sleep. Lack of sleep has been linked to low T levels. Get 7-8 hours a night and limit alcohol/caffeine.
3. Eat healthy foods. Zinc-rich red meat and healthy fats help increase T levels. Supplement with Fortagen to build more muscle.
4. Manage stress. High levels of cortisol lead to low T levels. Reduce stress with meditation, breathwork, and outdoor activity.
5. Embrace ice. Ice baths and cold showers can increase T levels in males.
7. Get some sun. Vitamin D is also a precursor to T. Aim for 20+ minutes a day.
