LIQUORICE<br />
Licorice candies have the same<br />
effect on testosterone. They<br />
contain glycyrrhizic acid which<br />
significantly reduces the testosterone<br />
content. So if you are<br />
a fan of this candy, you should<br />
consume as little of it as possible to avoid<br />
lowering your testosterone. Also always have a<br />
quick scan of any other sweets you eat to make<br />
sure that they do not contain glycyrrhizic acid<br />
(including liquorice root extracts).<br />
SOY<br />
Soy is often a staple food, especially for vegans.<br />
With the phytoestrogen it contains, it has about<br />
the same effect on the testosterone balance<br />
as flaxseed. If you consume too much soy, the<br />
totality of hormones could change in the long<br />
run and cause some negative effects for men.<br />
FAST FOOD BURGER<br />
Any kind of fast food is known to be particularly<br />
harmful to the body if consumed too much. In<br />
the case of burgers, however, it must almost<br />
always be assumed that the meat is of poor<br />
quality and that as a result the animals killed<br />
for this were fed with antibiotics. So not only do<br />
you gain weight when you consume too much<br />
fast food, but testosterone levels also decrease.<br />
And it basically is just not healthy.<br />
SOFT DRINKS<br />
Even with soft drinks such as cola or energy<br />
drinks, it is probably clear to everyone how their<br />
frequent consumption has harmful effects on<br />
the body. Due to the high sugar content, the<br />
increase in the body fat percentage is again<br />
strongly promoted in this case, which leads to<br />
a reduction in the testosterone content. Unfortunately,<br />
this also affects juices as they contain<br />
fructose, i.e. sugar.<br />
FIBER<br />
Surprisingly, care must also be taken not<br />
to consume too much fiber in the diet. Of<br />
course, fiber intake is important and good, so<br />
you shouldn't be without it entirely. However,<br />
studies have shown that if you consume too<br />
much fiber, your testosterone levels can also be<br />
lowered. A balanced diet is key here.<br />
GARLIC<br />
If you like to eat garlic<br />
frequently and often,<br />
this may also have a<br />
negative effect on your<br />
hormone or testosterone<br />
balance. Like other<br />
leek vegetables, garlic contains the amino<br />
acid allicin. When this amino acid is absorbed,<br />
the stress hormone cortisol is inhibited, which,<br />
as an antagonist to testosterone, also inhibits<br />
the production of this hormone and thus<br />
lowers its level.<br />

ALCOHOL<br />
Of course, alcohol should not be missing<br />
from this list. The hops contained in beer in<br />
particular are known to lower the testosterone<br />
balance. Hops belong to the phytoestrogens<br />
and work on the same principle as natural estrogen.<br />
Accordingly, for the sake of your health<br />
and in order not to reduce your testosterone<br />
too much, you should refrain from high alcohol<br />
consumption.<br />
DAIRY PRODUCTS<br />
That might be a bit of a surprise, too. Cows<br />
are often fed with soy-containing feed and<br />
therefore many dairy products contain soy. As<br />
such, a reduction in the testosterone balance<br />
is by no means unlikely with high consumption.<br />
You should therefore also pay attention to the<br />
amount and frequency when consuming dairy<br />
products.<br />
CONCLUSION<br />
Testosterone is a particularly important<br />
hormone for men and not only ensures<br />
a good libido and muscle building, but<br />
also for general well-being. A decrease<br />
in the testosterone balance is therefore<br />
not recommended and should not be<br />
provoked with the foods listed above. As<br />
with everything else, it is always about<br />
balance. So pay close attention to what<br />
and how much you eat. In this way, your<br />
hormonal balance stays in balance and<br />
you stay healthy. (mgp,ts,mb)<br />
