11 Natural Ways to Combat Low Testosterone Levels
Men lose approximately one percent of their testosterone level per year starting in their late teens which starts to become noticeable in their 30s and 40s. Testosterone Replacement Therapy is a solution when the symptoms of low testosterone in males start affecting one’s life; however, there are a number of natural ways for men to enhance their testosterone levels that are safe, effective and recommended for men of any age. Natural low testosterone treatment can be substituted for TRT or used in parallel to testosterone therapy. Some physicians even theorize that raising testosterone levels naturally in one’s 20s by using natural low testosterone treatment methods can help one maintain higher levels later in life.

6 Testosterone Boosting Foods
Whether you are on hormone replacement therapy or considering it, there are also many natural ways to boost your male hormones including altering your diet. These foods can help your t levels either in conjunction with TRT or on their own.
T levels peak during adolescence, and start to decline in ones late 20s at the rate of about 1 percent each year, but low levels can be caused by or expedited by stress, a bad diet, obesity, and other factors. Low levels of testosterone cause changes in sexual function, sex drive, insomnia, weight gain, fatigue, reduced strength and muscles, and can even cause depression and an inability to concentrate.

World Experts and Androgen Study Group Petition JAMA to Retract Misleading Article on Testosterone Therapy
“Gross data mismanagement” led to unreliable results that contradicted 30+ years of medical literature, producing a media frenzy that misled consumers and compromised public health.
BOSTON, March, 25, 2014 /PRNewswire/ — Three professional medical societies and a highly distinguished international group of over 130 scientists and concerned physicians have petitioned the Journal of the American Medical Association to retract the article that precipitated recent concerns regarding cardiovascular risks with testosterone therapy. In a letter addressed to the editor-in-chief of JAMA, Dr. Howard Bauchner, the group cites “gross data mismanagement,” rendering the article “no longer credible.” The article by Rebecca Vigen and colleagues was published in the November 13, 2013 issue of JAMA, entitled “Association of Testosterone Therapy With Mortality, Myocardial Infarction, and Stroke in Men With Low Testosterone Levels.” The results of this article were widely reported as new evidence that testosterone therapy is associated with cardiovascular risks, resulting in a Food and Drug Administration safety bulletin issued January 31, 2014. The retraction letter was written by the Androgen Study Group.
