Testosterona

Testosterone production may decline naturally with age. Testosterone supplements help to replenish and rejuvenate testosterone levels in men in addition to:**

• Maintaining peak muscle and bone mass.**
• Optimizing male performance and stamina.**
• Promoting mental wellness and quality of life.**

What is Testosterone?

Testosterone is primarily known as the male sex hormone that is secreted by the testes. It is also found in the ovaries and adrenal glands. It at first encourages maturation of the male body in puberty, and is associated with body hair growth, deepening of the voice, and development of sex organs. Testosterone is known as being a natural steroid, increasing bone and muscle mass as the body grows. The hormone also regulates the metabolism of the body to burn calories more intensely during exercise.**

As males grow older, particularly in the United States, research has indicated that testosterone production diminishes significantly, potentially creating hormonal imbalance. This imbalance may lead to decreased muscle mass, weaker bones, mood issues, weight management problems, unbalanced blood sugar and diminished libido.**

While hormonal issues may be addressed with synthetic pills, creams, and patches, natural testosterone supplements are also available. These supplements can help to correct any hormonal imbalances, restoring the healthy testosterone levels that are associated with healthy weight, peak athletic performance, muscle mass, mood balance and revitalized sexual desire and function. Some of the most popular testosterone supplements include:**

• DIM: Found primarily in vegetables such as broccoli, cabbage, and cauliflower, diindolylmethane (DIM) is believed to balance hormone levels in the body while supporting immune system and detoxification functions.**
• DHEA: Produced naturally by the adrenal glands, dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) is a hormone precursor that is converted by the body into estrogen or testosterone. Research has indicated that DHEA may combat bone and muscle loss, optimize memory and cognition, and help restore sex drive, particularly in older men.**
• Tongkat Ali: A traditional remedy from South-East Asia also known as Malaysian ginseng and Long Jack, Tongkat ali is commonly associated with healthy sexual performance. Research has suggested that these benefits may be linked to Tongkat ali’s ability to support youthful hormone levels.**
• Mucuna Pruiens: Also known as the velvet bean, mucuna pruriens is primarily used for its naturally occurring concentration of L-DOPA, which is used in the synthesis of dopamine. Studies have suggested that mucuna pruriens may support virility in men and promote youthful sexual function.**
• Fenugreek: Traditionally used in Indian and Chinese health practices, fenugreek is one of the oldest wellness herbs known. Research has suggested fenugreek may balance testosterone levels, in turn promoting robust sex drive and revitalized performance.**
