the recommended daily allowance (RDA) for copper in normal sized human male is about 3mg/day.
(optimal ratio of zinc and copper is considered to be between 10:1 and 10:2).
Basically if you supplement with 30 mg’s of zinc per day, then you should also take 3-6 mg’s of copper to balance out the zinc-induced copper depletion.
fermented foods.
grass-fed animal meats
Given that 45 mg’s is considered to be the upper safe limit for humans.
a minimum daily intake of 550 mg for adult males
• Proteins: Egg yolks (best if consumed raw), meat livers and kidneys, veal, beef, chicken, cod, salmon, caviar, pork, and beans • Carbs: Brussel sprouts, wheat germ, broccoli, spinach, bok choy, cauliflower, cabbage and mushrooms (consume with grass-fed ghee, this aids in the absorption of the nutrients) • Fats: Peanut butter, almond butter, vegetable oil, and yogurt, kefir, and raw milk
Sadly our world has fucked up this halogen stuff majorly. As we shouldn’t be in any contact with fluoride, bromine, or chlorine because they’re more lighter than iodine, which means that these 3 halogens will flush iodine out of your body, and take its place inside your cells.
Your toothpaste is full of fluoride, our water supply has been shown to contain fluoride and chlorine, commercial bread uses bromide as a dough conditioner, and so on.
Stop consuming those 3 toxic halides. Switch to fluoride free toothpaste, drink spring water, eat organic foods, and stop swimming in chlorinated pools.
start your supplementation with very strong liquid iodine which will flush out that excess fluoride, bromine and chlorine from your body so you can finally replace it with iodine that your body has been yearning for all these years.
suggest that you start from strong nascent iodine.
focus on meats, eggs, and high quality dairy while also supplementing with fruits and vegetables that are high in antioxidants
Answer: There’s differences between carbs, and when it comes to boosting testosterone, I usually divide them into 2 groups. Starchy tubers and veggies: potatoes, yam, pumpkins, beets, carrots, turnips, squash, etc. Grains: wheat, rice, cereals, pasta, corn, bread, etc. If your goal is to eat the testosterone boosting carbs, you should eat most of your carbs from the group 1, and less from the group 2.
sorghum).
The source of protein also seems to be important. For testosterone optimization, animal sources are superior to plant sources, (377) especially if your goal is to build muscle.
you’re actively lifting weights, I would recommend that about 25-30% of your daily calories come from animal proteins.
For example, in groups of test subjects, those on a 20% fat diet had significantly lower testosterone levels than those on a 40% fat diet, over the course of the study.
PUFAs include sources from both omega-3 and omega-6s (it’s favorable to have a higher ratio of omega-3:6), including processed oils like soybean, corn, and safflower oil, walnuts, canola oil, flaxseeds, and fish.
The best sources of saturated fats are fresh animal products, such as meats, butters, and cheeses, which also happen to be rich in dietary cholesterol as well as monounsaturated fats, both favorable for testosterone production.
Researchers found that MUFA intake was positively correlated with testosterone levels as well. Most nuts and even fruits such as avocados and olives are outstanding sources of monounsaturated fats that will support testosterone production.
The first thing you must understand is that when proposing an ideal macronutrient breakdown for a testosterone- supporting diet, such as 30% protein, 35% carbohydrate, 35% fat, or 20% protein, 40% carbohydrate, 40% fat, that this does not necessarily have to be consumed daily.
Polyunsaturated fatty-acids (PUFAs) – omega fatty-acids (3,6,7,9), sunflower oil, canola oil, soybean oil, safflower oil, flaxseed oil, walnut oil, margarine, light spreads, etc. • Monounsaturated fatty-acids (MUFAs) – olive oil, almond oil, avocado oil, hazelnut oil, macadamia nut oil, peanut butter, etc. • Saturated fatty-acids (SFAs) – red meat, butter, coconut oil, palm oil, dark chocolate, egg yolks, cheese, whole milk,
there are also many foods that lower testosterone in men.
