[MEN] Avoid THIS Testosterone-Killing Diet! (Shocking)

If you’re a man over fifty, you’ve probably considered testosterone therapy.
And who could blame you?
Having low levels of this vital hormone can make you feel tired… reduce your sex drive… lead to weight gain … and make your muscles disappear.
But I’m NOT suggesting a prescription for testosterone. Because there’s a better way to get your levels back up.
And all you have to do is avoid this testosterone-killing diet.
I’m talking about eating a low-fat diet.
Yes, the diet suggested to you by mainstream doctors is causing your testosterone to PLUMMET.
In a recent study, published in the Journal of Urology, researchers analyzed the dietary habits and serum testosterone levels of 3,100 men.
Almost 15 percent of the men were eating a low-fat diet that followed the American Heart Association guidelines.
The average serum testosterone level for everyone in the study was 435.5 ng/dL (which is normal).
But when taking a closer look at the men following a low-fat diet, the scientists discovered that they only had an average of 411 ng/dL.
While less than 300 ng/dl is the cut off for “official low testosterone,” the difference a low-fat diet can make is significant.
What is going on here?
Testosterone is a steroid, which is a molecule based on cholesterol.
Read that again: you need cholesterol to make testosterone!
So when you eat a low-fat diet, you’re depriving your body of viral cholesterol… and sending your T levels down the drain.
But there’s an easy way to stop this.
When you are eating a low-carb diet full of good fats and proteins, you’re getting the cholesterol your body NEEDS. And you’re also building (or keeping) your muscles – which also plays a role in testosterone production.
