 Testosterone is a natural hormone that is important for everyone. It is produced in the testicles in men and in the ovaries and adrenal glands in women. Testosterone levels increase significantly in early adulthood. After that, most people's levels will drop slightly again. However, if levels are too low, health problems can arise. For athletes, testosterone is essential to keep you sharp, energetic, strong, motivated and focused.

Complaints of testosterone deficiency

From the age of thirty, testosterone can decrease by one percent every year. This hormone is important for everyone, but certainly also for strength athletes. A lack of testosterone can also occur when you are under too much stress.

These are health complaints that you can experience if your testosterone level is too low and that can seriously hinder you from achieving your sports goals:

  • Low self-esteem and lack of energy
  • Reduced libido, less desire for sex
  • Development of feminine characteristics in men, man boobs for example
  • Feeling down
  • Depression and mood swings
  • No muscle building during strength sports and poor or reduced muscle recovery
  • Increased belly fat

These are all health complaints that resemble menopause in elderly men, but can occur in much younger men due to a lack of testosterone.

Natural Testosterone Boosters

Do you want to grow, grow more muscle mass and achieve your sports goals or take them to a higher level? Then it is a good idea to add a testosterone booster to your routine. We explain why below. Supplements with vitamin D also have a positive influence on this hormone. They take care of its production. Sports scientists in Germany previously discovered that strength athletes make more progress if there is more vitamin D in the blood. People with a Western diet in particular should take extra Vitamin D, because they do not get enough from their diet to perform optimally. Of course, something can be done about this by changing your diet. Varied food is of course always the basis for good health. So eat enough proteins, (slow) carbohydrates and fats. Keep your blood sugar levels low and limit your fast carbohydrate intake. Of course, pay attention to the amount of pasta, bread, rice, potatoes and grains you take.

There are several types of natural herbs that help boost testosterone levels. One well-known one is ashwaganda, which contains both zinc and ginger. This herb works both ways. It increases testosterone levels and lowers cortisol (stress hormone) that causes the breakdown of testosterone. Natural products that contain a lot of zinc are oily fish, eggs, oysters, ginger and nuts and seeds.
