Eat Your Way To Higher Testosterone

The ultimate culinary playlist for adding more wood to your workouts.

Shrimp

They’re rammed with vitamin D, which Harvard University research found is associated with high levels of testosterone. Small in nature, not in stature.

Pumpkin seeds

Low zinc creates low testosterone and these are rammed with ludicrously high levels of this essential mineral.

Sardines

They’re cheap, a sinch to transport and swimming in protein, vitamin D and healthy fats needed to keep your T count high.

Free range eggs

These are high in vitamin D, rammed with the cholesterol needed for testosterone production and are a valuable protein source.

Coconut

It’s a stellar source of healthy saturated fat, which needs to make up about 10% of your total calories to keep your testosterone levels optimised.

Wheat bran

It’s rich in magnesium and people with high intakes of magnesium had increased testosterone swirling around their blood stream.

Cocoa powder

Load a few teaspoons into your protein shake to make your body flush with more magnesium and antioxidants.

Ricotta cheese

A study at the University of Connecticut found whey protein blunts cortisol, testosterone’s opposite number, and ricotta is loaded with plenty of whey.

Kefir

You’ll get a solid hit of saturated fat, whey and healthy probiotics that’ll provide the perfect conditions for the production of more man essence.

Strawberries

They’re rich in vitamin C, an antioxidant associated with lower cortisol in response to workouts found research in the International Journal of Sports Medicine.
