30 Days to a better man<br />

have T too, but men have 40-60 times greater amounts in their bodies.<br />

Testosterone is what gives you bigger muscles and organs than women.<br />

And it’s what gives you a “male brain,” which is larger than the female<br />

brain (although we should strongly point out that size has nothing to do<br />

with intelligence) but which has a decreased connection between the hemispheres.<br />

Perhaps most importantly, T is what enables you to rock an awesome<br />

beard or mustache. Testosterone maintains your manly characteristics<br />

throughout your whole life and regulates several systems in your body.<br />

So T is pretty damn important to a man. It’s what makes you feel like a<br />

man, man. So if you haven’t been feeling too manly lately, or maybe ever,<br />

perhaps it’s time for you to throw yourself a T party.<br />

The Benefits of Testosterone<br />

Testosterone has been scientifically proven to:<br />

• Improve your mental and physical energy<br />

• Increase your competitive drive<br />

• Increase your muscle size and strength<br />

• Increase your metabolism<br />

• Help prevent Alzheimer’s and dementia<br />

• Increase libido and prevent erectile function<br />

Every man is born with different levels of testosterone, and T secretion naturally<br />

falls as a man ages. And overdosing on testosterone (read: steroids)<br />

can have negative health effects. But modern environmental, cultural, and<br />

dietary changes are artificially decreasing men’s normal T levels, and at a<br />

younger and younger age. According to a recent study:<br />

“Researchers in the US are finding testosterone levels to be substantially<br />

lower — by about 15 to 20% — than they were fifteen years ago. Scandinavian<br />

studies show similar declines, and in younger men too; a man born in 1970,<br />

for example, had about 20 percent less testosterone at 35 than a man of his<br />

father’s generation at the same age.”<br />
