Increase testosterone with zinc
Zinc is a mineral that is often associated with a testosterone-boosting effect. If you are zinc deficient, you should take 25-30 mg of elemental zinc per day. Here, “elemental zinc” means the weight of the mineral itself and not the entire chemical compound intended to facilitate absorption in the body. Zinc should be taken with meals. At doses higher than 800 mg, you should not take it with minerals such as magnesium or calcium, as the substances then compete with each other for absorption in the body. However, at a lower dose, you can take the minerals together.
Lack of testosterone - what now?
An existing testosterone deficiency can usually be easily remedied. Depending on the individual hormone balance, a change in lifestyle is sufficient in many cases. For example with a balanced diet, exercise/physical training and necessary rest breaks. At the same time you are doing something good for your health. In addition, drug therapy can be useful. In addition to an increase in sexual desire and performance, the treatment often leads to a significant increase in quality of life.
