Herbs can increase testosterone:
Testosterone decreases as we age, but numerous herbs and nutrients can help increase the blood levels of this hormone. Low testosterone can increase the risk of heart problems as well as depression, osteoporosis, and dementia. Reduced testosterone causes a condition known as andropause that develops with aging. Testosterone is an anabolic steroid and research on synthetic hormone replacement has been inconclusive.
The UCLA School of Medicine studied the plant MUIRA PUAMA and found it had the ability to increase testosterone production in men. South American shaman and healers have used this plant from the Brazilian rainforest for generations. Known as “potency wood” it has been used as an aphrodisiac as well.
The Chinese herb FO TI is used in Oriental Medicine as an aphrodisiac and for longevity. The Chinese name is HOSHOU WU. It has been used to treat impotency and to turn back the clocks on aging.
Broccoli and cauliflower contain natural ingredients that help the body to eliminate estrogen. Another way to do this is by taking the nutrient L-ARGININE. A recent study showed that men taking less than two grams of l-arginine daily for two weeks had improvement. Another study of men taking five grams a day, demonstrated similar results.
SARSAPARILLA root has been made into a soft drink, like root beer, and is known in folk medicine as a treatment for increased virility. There is no research on this plant, but it has been used for generations.
