Let's talk about testosterone first. What is testosterone? Testosterone is a steroid hormone secreted by male testis or female ovary, and a small amount of testosterone is also secreted by adrenal gland. It has the functions of maintaining muscle strength and quality, bone density and strength, refreshing and improving physical fitness.
However, testosterone is not so easy to grow, except in the process of physical growth and development, men will secrete a lot of testosterone in adolescence. In other aspects, exercise, sleep and diet promote the production of testosterone more, but the secretion of testosterone will decrease with age.
At present, all the supplements that we can buy on major shopping websites to promote testosterone secretion can't raise your endogenous testosterone above your upper limit. For example, the upper limit of testosterone secretion in your body is 100. If your testosterone level drops to 60 for various reasons, such as smoking and drinking, perming and staying up late, poor diet, fatigue and old age, it is useful for you to take supplements that promote testosterone secretion. Many of these supplements contain zinc and magnesium, zinc will participate in the synthesis of testosterone, and magnesium is good for sleep.
Zinc and magnesium are only useful when you are short of them. It's useless to supplement more, and so are other ingredients. It is difficult to break the steady state of human hormone balance. Only exogenous hormone drugs can really help you break the upper limit. This is commonly known as "de-technology", but de-technology is harmful to the health. Ordinary people should not touch it. Although technology can help you grow muscles, it will be difficult to break the hormonal balance.
Then how should we ordinary people promote the secretion of testosterone? Say a few common simple and easy ways: don't stay up late, eat a balanced diet, don't make your body too tired, don't have too much pressure, avoid obesity, don't eat junk food, don't drink too much, and get more sunshine. You must pay special attention to the above, especially staying up late! Adequate sleep can ensure the normal secretion of hormones and is also the key to repairing physical fatigue.
There are also regular strength training, regular sexual intercourse, keeping a happy mood, scientific diet, red meat, eggs, animal viscera and dark vegetables are all conducive to the synthesis of testosterone.
To sum up, in fact, the really useful ways to promote testosterone are: proper diet, adequate sleep and regular strength training. These three are the most useful. Even if you go to technology and grow ten more eggs than others, it is just icing on the cake. In fact, one more buff can be understood as the sum of the exercise of eating and sleeping multiplied by a coefficient. If your diet and sleep exercise are zero, it's no use adding more drugs!
