More testosterone, more muscle. Less testosterone, less muscle.
It’s no surprise that “testosterone boosters” are some of the hottest muscle building supplements on the market.
let us take a tour and see which vitamins and herbal that help in enhance test levels
D Aspartic Acid
D-aspartic acid is an amino acid found in humans that plays an important role in the production of luteinizing hormone (LH) and testosterone. LH is secreted from the pituitary gland and signals the body to increase its production of testosterone.
D-aspartic acid is gaining a lot of traction in the supplement world, as research on this amino acid has consistently shown 30-40% increases in testosterone when following a dosage of about 3 grams per day.
In one Italian study, 87% of the subjects showed significant increases in LH levels (33%) and testosterone (42%). Testosterone levels were only slightly elevated after 6 days but saw a large spike after 12 days, remaining there until 3 days after supplementation was stopped.
FENUGREEK
This herb contains high amounts of Furostanolic saponins, which are natural plant chemicals that can boost testosterone levels. It also enhances performance, as one study reported that men taking fenugreek for eight weeks increased their bench-press and leg-press strength twice as much as those taking a placebo.
DAMIANA
Damiana leaves have been used as an aphrodisiac and to boost sexual potency by the native peoples of Mexico, including the Mayan Indians and is used for both male and female sexual stimulation, increased energy, asthma, depression, impotence and menstrual problems.
Damiana is a small shrub with aromatic leaves found on dry, sunny, rocky hillsides in south Texas, Southern California, Mexico, and Central America. Damiana leaves have been used as an aphrodisiac and to boost sexual potency by the native peoples of Mexico, including the Mayan Indians. The two species used in herbal healing, both of which are referred to as damiana, are Turnera aphrodisiaca and Turnera diffusa.
