Testosterone drives your strength, libido, and metabolism.

But modern life is draining it without your permission.

Low testosterone causes fat gain, brain fog, and burnout.

Want to raise it?

Here are 10 ways to restore it naturally🧵:
1. Cut seed oils

These crush testosterone over time.

A study in Reproductive Biology and Endocrinology found men with the highest intake of omega-6 fats had 26% lower testosterone than those with the lowest.

Cut canola, soybean, sunflower.

Use tallow, butter, or olive oil.
2. Lift heavy, not forever

Short, heavy workouts raise testosterone more than long ones.

A 45-minute session of compound lifts boosts T more than training for 90+ mins.

Lift 3x/week.
Squat, press, deadlift.
Keep it brief.
3. Ditch plastics for food

Plastics leach chemicals like BPA that mess with your hormones.

A study in Environmental Health Perspectives found high BPA exposure linked to 20–35% lower testosterone in adult males.

Store food in glass or steel.

Never microwave plastic.
4. Try Tongkat Ali

Tongkat Ali supports testosterone and lowers cortisol.

A 12-week study in Journal of the International Society of Sports Nutrition showed 37% increase in T among men supplementing daily.

Stack with zinc or magnesium.
I found a great source of Tongkat Ali.

Consume only half servings and take in the morning so it doesn't affect your sleep.

It's 3rd party tested, good quality, and evaluated for purity.

Here it is:

5. Prioritize deep sleep

Testosterone is made during deep sleep.

Sleeping 5 hours a night can drop T levels by 10–15% after just 1 week.

Sleep 7.5–9 hours.
Cold room.
No screens.
Pitch black.
6. Cut back on alcohol

Alcohol suppresses luteinizing hormone (the signal your brain sends to make testosterone).

It also raises aromatase, which turns T into estrogen.

Even moderate drinking (3–4 drinks/week) has been linked to lower testosterone over time.
7. Fix magnesium and iron

Low magnesium = low free testosterone.

Biological Trace Element Research found magnesium supplementation raised T (especially in active men).

Iron supports oxygen delivery and energy.

Eat liver weekly.
Magnesium glycinate nightly.
I take these Magnesium Glycinate gummies.

They're good quality, 3rd party tested, and very easy to consume.

8. Use cold exposure (down there)

Your testicles make more testosterone when they stay cool.

Too much heat (laptops, tight clothes, saunas) can suppress function.

Brief cold exposure (5–10 mins) may support hormone production.

Cold showers help... but icing is more direct.
9. Walk 10,000 Steps a Day

Walking lowers cortisol, the stress hormone that blocks testosterone.

It also improves blood flow, insulin sensitivity, and mental clarity.

10k steps a day = more energy, better recovery, and a hormonal edge.

Every step counts.
10. Eat red meat and eggs

Testosterone needs zinc, iron, cholesterol, and B vitamins.

Men who ate more meat and eggs had higher total and free T than plant-based eaters.

Eat steak.
Don’t skip yolks.
It’s not dangerous, it’s primal fuel.
If you're looking for a high-quality booster that uses 100% natural and proven sources with NO medications or injections...

I found it.

Staying out of shape is a choice.

But they sold you the lie that fat loss means surviving off lettuce and doing hours of cardio.

Here are 9 proven ways I used to get lean without suffering🧵:
1. Lift heavy weights

Muscle is your metabolic engine.

The more you have, the more calories you burn doing nothing.

Lifting 3–4x/week is the most reliable way to raise your resting metabolic rate... for life.

Skip the cardio cult. Strength is the signal.
2. Eat more protein

Your body burns ~30% of protein’s calories just to digest it.

It also suppresses hunger hormones, stabilizes blood sugar, and preserves muscle.

Target: 0.7–1g per lb of bodyweight daily.

Yes, it’s that powerful.

The most clinically studied spice in the world:

Turmeric.

It fights systemic inflammation, protects your joints, and boosts long-term immune resilience.

Here is why it works (& how to take it properly)🧵:
Turmeric is one of the most studied natural compounds in medical history:

- Over 20,000 published papers
- 7,000+ peer-reviewed articles
- 600+ human clinical trials

It’s not hype... it’s data-backed natural medicine.

So what makes it so powerful?
The power of turmeric comes from one molecule:

Curcumin.

It blocks NF-κB — the master switch that tells your body to produce inflammatory proteins.

This switch fuels chronic diseases like arthritis, cancer, Alzheimer’s, and heart disease.

Curcumin helps shut it off.

If your metabolism is sluggish, fat loss will feel impossible.

Most people blame age...

When it’s actually lifestyle damage.

Here's 9 habits destroying your metabolism and how to fix them🧵:
Your metabolism is not fixed.

It’s a dynamic system driven by muscle, hormones, mitochondrial output, and stress signals.

And modern life sabotages all 4.

Here’s how:
1. You’re losing muscle.

Muscle burns 6x more calories than fat at rest.

But after 30, you lose up to 5% per decade — unless you fight back.

Fix it: Prioritize resistance training. 3–4x/week.

Progressive overload. Muscle is your metabolic engine.

Berberine is the most underrated metabolic enhancer on Earth.

It boosts fat metabolism, balances glucose, and curbs cravings.

I took it daily for 30 days...

Because the science behind it blew me away. Here’s why🧵:
Berberine is a natural compound found in plants like barberry and goldenseal.

But what’s wild is how well it mimics the effects of metformin (a prescription drug used for Type 2 diabetes).

Yet, it does this naturally.

So how does it work?
Berberine activates AMPK. An enzyme known as the "metabolic master switch."

AMPK improves how your cells use glucose, increases fat burning, and enhances mitochondrial function.

It’s like a full-body reset button.

Let's talk a bit about blood sugar:

Your cortisol shapes your mood, energy, and metabolism.

But most people stay in fight-or-flight 24/7...

High cortisol leads to fat gain, burnout, and poor sleep.

Want to lower it?

Here are 9 proven ways to balance cortisol naturally🧵:
Let’s start with a truth most people miss:

Cortisol isn’t the enemy.

It’s excessive, unregulated cortisol that wrecks your brain, sleep, and fat-burning capacity.

Fix that and your body stops thinking it’s in a war zone.

Let’s get to work:
1. Morning sunlight (10–15min within 60min of waking)

This one change rewires your cortisol clock.

- Syncs circadian rhythm
- Lowers PM cortisol naturally
- Suppresses melatonin at the right time

No sun = poor sleep, unstable energy, constant fatigue

This is your base layer.

Everyone over 30 blames aging for low testosterone.

But the truth?

It’s stress, poor sleep, and toxic daily habits.

Here are 9 ways to naturally boost testosterone before it tanks further🧵:
1. Lower your body fat.

Fat cells convert testosterone into estrogen via the aromatase enzyme.

The more belly fat, the more T you lose.

Visceral fat is a hormone-wrecking factory.

Lift weights. Eat clean. Stay lean.
2. Fix your sleep.

Testosterone peaks during deep sleep, especially from 2–5am.

One bad night can slash levels by 15%.

Less than 6 hours? Your T looks like a man 15 years older.

Prioritize REM. Blackout your room. Block blue light before bed.
