Testosterone Drops For Reasons Other Than Age

Does the aging male face unique hormonal challenges that a young male doesn’t? No question.

But the (negative) effect of age might not be as dramatic as you think.

Testosterone Levels Are Declining in Young Men Too

A recent study looked at 102 000 males and found that testosterone levels are up to 37% lower in men aged 20-25, compared to men of the same age just 15 years ago.

What has changed in the last 15 years? One answer is exposure to toxins, which we discussed last week.

That's not to say that the level of toxins we are exposed to has necessarily increased in just 15 years, rather, bioaccumulation leads to higher levels within the body, unless we do something about it (which we discussed last week).

Improve Your 'General Health' To Improve Your Testosterone

Poor metabolic health leads to impaired hormonal health - Testosterone is significantly lower in men with diabetes, or men with hypertension, or with hyperlipidemia, or with higher BMI (or body fat percentage). 

88% of Americans Have Poor Metabolic Health

Using a criteria slightly more strict than 'mainstream' shows that 88% of people have poor metabolic health. So is the rapid decline in testosterone a coincidence, or partially a result of declining health?

Optimize Overall Health to Support Healthy Testosterone

Aging doesn’t mean you’re destined for a steep decline in vitality or testosterone. Yes, some changes are inevitable—but you have far more control than you might think. By taking responsibility for your health and hormones now, you can dramatically influence how you age.

Start by doubling down on the fundamentals: eat real, nutrient-dense foods, limit your exposure to xenoestrogens and support healthy detoxification.
