What is Testosterone?
Testosterone is a crucial hormone responsible for sexual stamina, muscle gain, strength and immunity. Low testosterone levels can result in low sex drive, mood swings, weight gain and anxiety. Research shows that one in four North American men suffer from a chronically low testosterone level (ii). Testosterone is a hormone produced in the testes. Normal testosterone levels should range between 300 and 1,000 ng (nanograms) (iii). Testosterone levels can easily be confirmed through a blood test. As men age it is normal for their testosterone levels to drop, however unhealthy diet, smoking, alcohol and stress can lower levels in younger men.
Erectile Dysfunction
Testosterone affects receptors in the brain that produce the molecule nitric oxide. Nitric oxide is needed for the muscles in the penis to relax. This relaxation allows chambers inside the penis to fill with blood and become erect. When levels of testosterone are lower. nitric oxide levels dip down as well and the result is erectile dysfunction (iv). While this is a common issue for men it remains a highly uncomfortable one. It can have a terrible effect on self-esteem and anxiety and can be challenging issue to deal with in relationships,
Ginger for Men’s Natural Health
Ginger has been consumed for over 5000 years beginning with the ancient Chinese dynasties, who prized the root as a cure all. Ginger is a perennial flowering plant with long narrow leaves that grows up to one meter in height. The medicinal part of the plant is the root. The essential and most powerful compound in ginger is 6-gingerol. This is what encourages production of nitric oxide and also helps to stimulate blood flow. The ingredient 6-gingerol also helps aids in workout recovery by alleviating muscle soreness (v). Ingesting this compound also balances and regulates blood sugar and cholesterol levels.
