8 Secrets to Boost Testosterone for Men and Women

For more information on testosterone boosters

In this episode of Ancient Medicine Today, Jordan Rubin and I are talking about secrets — herbs, supplements, essential oils, etc. — to help boost testosterone in both men and women.

You’re probably most familiar with testosterone as being the sex hormone responsible for defining “manhood.” And, yes, it does. However, proper levels of this key hormone are also necessary to stimulate sexual desire, increase libido, heighten arousal and ensure sexual satisfaction for both men and women. It’s also necessary to maintaining the following:

A healthy pain response

Sufficient levels of red blood cells

Regular sleep patterns

Optimal bone density

Muscle mass

And high energy levels

As men and women age, their T-levels naturally decline but this can accelerate faster than normal by the typical American lifestyle:

Chronic stress

Insufficient nutrition

Imbalanced microflora

Low vitamin D levels

Weight gain

Inadequate exercise

Prescription drugs (especially statins)

All of these risk factors deplete the normal immune response, lead to obesity and diabetes, tax the body and decrease metabolism. This, my friends, is the recipe for low T-levels and most people are stuck on the gerbil wheel desperate for a ticket to get off of the ride.
