Garlic Powder: More test, less cortisol and better nitrogen

Post by Coach Rob »

Yep, it elevates testosterone, diminished cortisol AND results in better nitrogen retention. Let's hear it from the people who eat garlic!

Can anyone read this meta-analysis about garlic and male fertility: <A HREF="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22943423"> Impact of garlic feeding (Allium sativum) on male fertility.</A>

The abstract mentions garlic impairing testicular function. Might not be something to use like a supplement over extended periods of time.

I seriously doubt even heavy consumption of garlic in cooking would have a negative effect, but force feeding it as a supplement perhaps could.

One thing we've seen very often over the years is soy being a dietary culprit in low T. Remove the soy, and magically Test starts to increase.

Adaptogen N can work wonders in accelerating fertility restoration in these cases, too.

Agree on garlic in cooking having least likely negative effects. Soy is indeed a culprit in lowering T. So too though, is aluminum in anti-persperants/deoderants.

Something to ponder...
