I am 71 years old I wake up every morning at 5 and work out for an hour every single day, I don’t suffer from low libido I do suffer from low libido in my wife, how bout some meds for women that’s where the problem lays.
A book that changed my life in ways that i never could imagine is "Hidden testosterone secrets".Drop whatever you're doing right now and go find that book. Trust me after i implemented things from the book my testosterone levels went beast mode
Drop a link to the book. I can find it

Already reading it man i was curious about buying but trust me it is worth it , i find the ebook on browser just type the name of ebook !
Hey! Is that book you’re referring to only available in an E-Book or an actual book? I looked up the title and seen a cover with a man flexing his back muscles but it was an E-Book and I didn’t seen anything on Amazon.Whats the cover look like ? Thnx
Sleep is huge and underrated. I'm 29, when I was in the Army, my sleep was extremely poor for obvious reasons. Now that I've been out for a year, I've found my muscle building plateaus conquered more easily, my mood is better, etc. Sleep is important, folks.
Yes sir..u r right..
Sleep will only be ok when you will stress free. And for stress free we need to control many things ,which is not easy.
@@risinggamer3011 low stress can be achieved by controlling what you can, and learning to accept what you cannot. Trying to control something that cannot be controlled will cause much more stress

It's strange than you didn't mention testostux, everything that you need for perfect health is here
whats that? a supplement?
@@NeverFatAgainMatt site
Rena. Your one of the only doctors, I have listened to, who support a hypothesis, using statistics. Statistics was one of my favorite college classes, so when I hear u talking about changes being “statistically different”, I know your conclusions are fact based.
As a 70+ male, I love your talks about ED & increasing testosterone levels, naturally.
Keep up the good work! 👍
The most beautiful answer she gave in this video was: "I don't know yet"..... Her saying that made me trust everything else she said even more.
I noticed that too, true science, I'm impressed
That's playing hard to get.
I like to get too 😉
True.
Only serious and sincere scientists use this sentence quite often.
(Philosophers/philosophizers know everything of course.😆)
Well said
Maybe she just said it to give the impression of being a trustworthy scientist?
Its amazing just how much of our problems can be solved through proper diet, exercise, and sleep
Nice quickie breakdown
Not amazing.
Just common sense, I would say.
It's all about coming and keeping closer to nature-and I don't mean just plants, flowers, and trees when I say 'nature'.
@@vidhushekhar17 still pretty amazing to me. yeah common sense that living closer to humanity's original way of life is more beneficial, but there's *so much* problems, initially appearing to be only solvable by drugs, that are solvable just by those simple things.
maybe we're just so far from what we *could* be, that the power inside our bodies is barely visible
You can sleep when your dead.
Sleep is so important
I remember my doctor recommend to get the best sleep is consistency. Same bed time and waking time pretty much sets your body clock in action. I believe Rena is right about all the points she made in this video with clear and concise evidence to back the claims. At the ripe age of 70, the best claim was about exercise. I average 6 miles walking everyday I work. I believe I don’t suffer from deficient testosterone levels. Thanks for the informative videos from your newest subscriber
Wait until five years from now then you can brag about it.
Great going! Keep up the good work!
For me constant times are more important than the length itself. I have small kids and a stressful job so that’s how I survive.
I made three changes from last year’s physical and my Testosterone moved up 200 points. I went on the carnivore diet which is high fat high protein diet and I lost 21 pounds. Started going to the gym doing resistance training about three days a week no change in sleeping habits normally about six hours per night. I’m 64 years old male but I feel like I lost 21 years not pounds. Thank you Dr Malik for all you do.
Sir, I'd suggest taking 8 hour sleep, I used to sleep 6 hours but then I switched to 8 and can not imagine going back. Taking a sleep where you wake up naturally without any alarms is just amazing, trust me. Thanks
@@niccolopaganini1782 8 hours doesn't work for everyone.
I'm a 60 you male and my T levels were down around 350mg. I went on Keto, lost 15lbs, and added DHEA and boosted my T level to over 450. Really helped to reduce overall grumpiness according to my wife!
It's measured in nanograms not MG LOL
@@JW0143 Wow, you're a veritable savant 😒 Slow clap.
I like to take a certain plant supplement called Tongkat Ali, increase by 100dl/nanogram!!!!
Just take test and do those other things. Easy to get
How do you measure you T levels?
I learn more from Dr. Malik's 11--minute videos than from years of going to my own doctor. Thank you, Dr. Malik! You're doing the godddess' work!
Agreed❤
Why are always exotic plants or every kind of testosterone booster,comes from a remote area of the world?" For boost testosterone you need this rare plant that grows inside a cave,guarded by king Kong and Godzilla 24/7 in the middle of the jungle".
Because it is bullshit. Workout with weights, reduce carbs and cut out sugar. Eat moderate to high protein and high fats. IF and Keto will increase your Test.
lmao facts lol
That's not true. I can personally attest that everything the doctor is saying is true. Bok Choy, kale, collard greens, cauliflower are great and readily available. For me most effective energy booster has been broccoli.
@@totalsubmition lol and everything increases estrogen. Why do we have nothing that increases test other than avoiding the things that increase estrogen?
Raw eggs, spinach, broccoli, salmon.
Not so exotic or from the far reaches.
After a heart attack I started to get a little more involved in my well being and one of the things I was told or learnt to do was reduce stress. I learnt transcendental meditation (TM) which was amazing but I'm really bad at routines so never got into the swing of regular practice. I knew I needed to build muscle to help in weight loss and as an older guy we have to look at those hacks that will help us increase testosterone. I now put a heaped teaspoon of ash. powder on my breakfast each morning because it helps to reduce cortisol levels. With lower cortisol levels you get higher testosterone and vice versa. A side benefit of taking the ash. powder IS lower stress levels - it is like meditation in powdered form!
Finally someone that focuses on men's health. Most men never go to the doctor for regular check ups or even when they have health issues.
This will open people up.
No it will not many men may not or want to watch this even if they had the internet. Men need to tell men. My wife at work talks to her female work mates to get an idea on what is going on with her.
Not true anymore. Most men do go to their regular Dr visits. We know how important this is.
@@williammoore4792 I know many that do not or go to Dr and the Dr will not send them to specialist
I'm guilty of that. Lol

yes ketogenic is awesome. I was diagnosed as mixed dislipedemia and have been in keto for 4 years now. In the first year I reduced my triglycerides from over 600 to below 80, visceral fat from 14 to 3. Waist size from 36 to 31 slim.
By the way, I achieved this without changing exercise - actually did it a lot less.
Ketogenic lifestyle is so delicious, easy, and honestly, addicting. Just so unfair that lifestyle so healthy is so cheiap, easy, and fun to live with.
Now, I am starting to exercise big time to run 1 mile in under 5,5 minutes. Oh, I am 56 by the way.
Good luck and bless us all
I’ve been taking the Irwin testosterone mega boost red with nitric oxide booster, and I’ve noticed a significant difference in my testosterone levels. I haven’t had it measured but I am much more aggressive and I have a lot more energy in the gym.
Dr. Malik, your videos are awesome! People usually talks about the menopausal transition for women but for men is also a very challenging period. Thank you for sharing this information, Thank you for being so helpful!
At 5:15 you say "Well, I don't know yet." I'm not sure why I'm even taking the time to comment on it, other than that it was refreshing to hear someone confidently say they don't have all the answers. Not enough people admit they don't have all the answers. Which is just ridiculous, because none of us do. Good on you.
My story is I was starting my 60s and felt older and slowing down plus didn't feel like have sex but wanted to. I had my yearly physical and my testosterone level was just below 300 which is just below the minim level for a male my age. I asked to try some testosterone therapy and was given a prescription for gel. It took a while to kick in but in 3-4 months I felt a little younger and was able come out of retirement and go back to work, come home and exercise or do an hour of yardwork and my sex drive felt normal. I also could think more clear headed. It didn't make me feel 20 again but maybe 50 give or take. I now tell guys my age about the benefits of testosterone. It's like the fountain of youth for males my age.
Oh I'm 68 but people keep telling me when they ask how old I am that I seem much younger.
300 is considered normal by the medical society...but low to the bodybuilding society....you can build muscle and have a normal sex drive even in the 200 range ....Often body fat and medications can loser testosterone in older people ...that number may be higher and fluctuate during the day....People should try everything before using TRT ....unless nothing else works....last resort should be Cialis....which may clear up a lot of problems.
Ghee Whiz- lose weight, exercise, eat fruits and veggies, avoid processed foods, get sleep, avoid chemicals and plastics, reduce stress. How revolutionary.
Thanks saved me from watching the whole video

This is life saving... guy's let's get better. Not for other's but for ourselves...time to learn to love ourselves.
I would be very much interested in the keto to testosterone video. Personally i did the keto diet for a full year. Im 6'4" and was 290lbs. I was very fit and active before i gained the weight. My avg weight back then was around 210. Weight crept up on me after marriage and the kiddo. Decided on keto to do something about it. I lost 45lbs in 2 months. Then it leveled off. The other effects were why i stayed on it. Digestive system functioned better, more energy..needed less food. I generally ate one meal a day. I lost the taste for alot of things. Especially sugary drinks. Any bottle of fruit juice feels like im trying to drink a bottle of maple syrup now. It was quite the interesting experience
take good care
I went on to the keto diet and no sugar. Now anything sugary tastes terrible....
Congrats! You rock! Those sugar drinks are hurting so many people!
Hi! Curious guy here - are you still on the keto diet? Or did you just follow it to reach your short-term wellness goals? I’m always curious about this sort of thing…
@@dmarti47 staying on the keto diet is quite difficult. But a lesser variant of the same (LCHF) can be exercised
Thank you Rena. You have some of the most informative videos on male health that I've come across. As a 63 year old man, this one really spoke to me. And now, I want to go out and get some Ashwagandha and get my weight down and try and get better sleep.
Valerian Root is excellent for sleeping and also the squeeze and relax your muscles method invented by military pilots for fast sleep in different time zones..
Every time I watch one of her videos it’s a college course. I appreciate all that you do.
Your videos are Always, Educational, Informative and VERY HELPFUL - KEEP DOING 'WHAT' You are Doing!!!
Over 60 male here... Started a Keto diet 6 years ago after the Doc diagnosed Type 2 diabetes with a 9.4 A1C. Yikes. Started my Keto Journey and noticed no appreciable weight loss per se... but, at about the 4.5 year mark, my A1C had dropped to about 6.3. I couldn't figure out what was keeping it up and so I then made a transition from Coke Zero to Zevia Cola and my A1C has dropped to 5.6. I sleep like a rock about 6.5 -7 hours a night, but I don't get to exercise that regularly (thanks C0vid) anymore. However, my T levels are pretty low. So, I've been taking a lot of supplements to help boost my immune system (helped beat C0vid without taking anything extra), but I didn't know about Ashwagandha. So, thanks for your immensely well done videos - they've been watched with much enthusiasm...! Off to the store for Ashwagandha...!
u dont really lose fat from keto or any other diet, u lose weight from being in a caloric deficit, for most ppl its easier to eat less calories especially without counting them on certain diets
Ashwagandha hasn't done anything for me the 3 months I've been taking it. (Using the liquid 'Herb Pharm' brand). But hopefully you get better results.
Check with your doctor to see if you can try intermittent fasting. I'm 40 and 2 months in lost about 20 lbs and feel better. Starting weight 205 height 6 foot
Great information.

1. For the pounds to melt off, incline treadmill walk first thing in the morning on an empty stomach 5 days a week for 30 minutes. Doing it in a fasted state forces your body to use stored energy, which is important for weight loss. You can do weight training in the evenings a couple times a week to rebuild muscle lost through weight loss - the net result being fat loss. 2. Exercise will then help u sleep better. Not sleeping enough is a stress to the body. The body doesnt lose weight when its stressed. 3. Eat more fibrous(as opposed to starchy) veggies and lean proteins and less carbs. Exercise, sleep and diet are 3 equal pieces of the fat loss pie. Without 1 piece of the pie, the process doesnt work.
Agree. Except for the lean protein. Recent knowledge increasingly states to use the more fatty proteins.
Incline treadmill walk works better for fat loss than running. Also it is not as hard on the body and joints and so it doesn't increase cortisol or appetite.
What about bike riding
Guy talks about strict diet and uses pie as a metaphor, yer killin' me bro!
Oh thank goodness you didn't mention cutting out pizza ;-)

A remark from me as a chemist: Most food contact plastics (mainly PE, PP, PET) do not contain a single trace of bisphenol A (BPA), it's only in polycarbonate, PC, because it's a building block of that material.
BUT: BPA is a part of many metal coatings for metal food containers, from cans to silos.
Concerning BPA plastics are only a sideshow.
Thankyou Rena for your very helpful advice to improve Men’s Health, we are worth it💜
Hi
Interesting. I am in my late seventies and have been eating keto for a couple of yrs. Don’t know about testosterone but it has definitely helped bring down my blood sugar levels. And reduced my craving for sweets. It’s a diet that I can live with long term. Not just a fad.
You rock...literally! Did you record this in a rocking chair? Love your content. :-)
Yeah, she must. Had to chuckle when I red that. Good finish to your comment
Read (corr.)
The most effective approach to improving one's health and well-being is to reduce sugar intake. This will lead to weight loss, improved cognitive function, and a general sense of vitality. As a result, individuals may be motivated to adopt healthier dietary habits and engage in regular physical activity.
Overall great video I just recently found you. I'm 52 years old, I've been ketogenic for 7 years, I get up at 5am and do a mixed training routine of weight lifting and calisthenics, fasted, 5 days a week, sleep 7-8 hours/night, drink ~100oz of water/day, stay away from alcohol during the week. Just had my testosterone levels checked at my last physical and I'm tracking at the levels normally seen in 30-35 year olds. Maintaining ~15% body fat and added 3.5 lbs of lean mass over the last year, which is supposed to be impossible for men over 50.....never been healthier in my entire life per my blood tests and extra inflammation markers I pay extra to have tested. The only other thing I would mention is proper supplementation. I'm not talking about TRT or god forbid steroids that will shutdown natural testosterone production forever.... don't do it. I mean a healthy amino acid mix, vitamins and electrolytes daily. Also DHEA, which is a natural testosterone precursor that the body produces up until ~18 years old then shutsdown in both men and women. Taking it as you get older gives your body the tools it needs to make it, naturally, with the proper stimulation like weightlifting. Research it first if you are considering it, some hereditary cancers can increase if you take it.... so get educated first and know your family medical history. Mike Munzel over at High Intensity Health does a good discussion on it.
Hey Sean, I'm a similar age, what do you consider a healthy amino acid mix? Which vitamins do you take? I don't mean to replicate it, but just curious to understand a reference point.
@@Kronx1970 Hi, happy to list what I do, I've curated my supplementation over a number of years. In regards to aiding in weight lifting I take a BCAA complex before and after lifting which contains L-Leucine, L-Isoleucine, L-valine, Taurine. I also take a nighttime recovery drink which contains L-Theanine, L-Glutamine, L-Leucine. Both are sold by Jeff Cavalier over at AthleanX the BCAA is called "Alpha RX" and the nighttime drink is called "Reconstruction". In regards to Keto, you have to remember its not a diet, its a permanent lifestyle and you are rewiring your body chemistry when you switch to being fat adapted so the body needs different things versus a carb based diet. I take a ketogenic multivitamin called Ketocore (on Amazon) which also has a probiotic complex for high fat diets to aid in gut health. I also supplement Vitamin B5 morning and night. B5 aids the body in converting fat to energy so its mandatory for Keto, if you are feeling fatigued in the afternoon you are probably not getting enough B5 on keto. I take Berberine at night, this aids in reducing blood sugar levels (glucose regulation) and lowering insulin as well as reducing overall inflammation in the body and oxidative stress. Vitamin D 5000IU's/day, the body uses vitamin D in ~100 processes and most people don't get enough. A good quality Omega 3 containing DHA and EPA daily. Lastly in the ketosis process in the liver the body sheds electrolytes (sodium, magnesium, potassium primarily) as part of that chemical reaction so I take an additional 2grams of salt in the morning in pill form and get ~5-7grams of total salt a day which will sound crazy to most people but its totally normally for a fully fat adapted ketogenic lifestyle. If you are getting tired in the afternoon and are on Keto you are also probably not getting enough salt in your diet along with the B5 listed above. Magnesium and Potassium round out the electrolytes. If you are getting muscle cramps during the day you don't have enough potassium, if you are getting muscle cramps at night you are not getting enough magnesium. As you can tell I'm somewhat of a biohacker. What does all that get me at 52 years old?.... Testosterone levels like a 35 year old, insulin level at 3 which is super low, glucose in the 60's, triglycerides in the 80's, c-reactive protein of 0.3 - anything lower than 1 is optimal, and a very healthy cholesterol of 382 and LDL of 289, which is perfect for keto. Also my ApoB/ApoA1 ratio is 0.5 (perfect), which is a far better estimator for cardiovascular risk than the garbage cholesterol test which is just a number based on a math calculation and is basically meaningless unless you look at all the other markers I listed above. Hope this helps.
Thank you for all the info. I'm 47 and just started Keto and your info really helps. Blessings and Gratitude.
@@seanmcdonald4156 I just turned 54 and I am 30-40 lbs overweight. This is exactly the type of information and level of detail that I need to put a good program in order. I appreciate you sharing your story with us.

Thank you for what you are doing to educate people. I think its amazing! Very helpful. I wish you all the best! And I must say, you are beautiful as well.
Watching her videos increases my testosterone level. :)
Simple then, just lose weight to increase testosterone - either by regular exercise, good diet or sleeping well or any combination - but individually apparently increase testosterone as well - and feeling fitter also increases self confidence and so libido.
i am a 65 year old white male, 5'-9", 155 pounds.
my testosterone level was just checked and came in at 850.
diet, weight lifting, and walking with an active design career.
Ashwaganda has been good to me. 350mg per day. Helped me loose about 20 lbs. Down from 180 to under 160. Diet and activity levels play a roll but it isn’t like I run 5 miles a day. Currently age 45. Supposedly it suppresses cortisol production and cortisol suppresses testosterone… that’s what “they say” at least.
Pushing yourself when you exercise will literally make you feel more manly and confident.
Its why taking a martial art is super useful.
You are very good to us men at a time when mostly we're made to feel like knuckle dragging S
Dr Malik I can test the fact that me personally working 25 years working nights and only averaging 4 to 5 hours sleep has caused a decrease in testosterone levels. Nocturnal circadian rhythm I really truly do believe is very important. I personally can see the difference. That's 25 years of testing on my own.
Hi Dr. Rena
I am 53 yr old lost about 50 lbs because of cut down on high carbs diet. When I was 18 and signed up for army training in was 172 lbs. Now at old age I am a healthy 160 lbs. Oh yeah got my T level tested, my doctor said I have high T at 953 .
I take a pomegranate pill every night and I try to eat avocados every day. I enjoyed eating food with a lot of green.
Thanks for the video.
Am 63 and did a Keto type of diet and lost 40 lbs earlier this year. Energy boosted and Testosterone seems to be much better. Avocado seems to have a positive effect for me.
63 damn u need to call it quits already lol
@@JayJay-hk3oq ??? bro still easily has 1/3 of his life left to go if he keeps himself healthy wym
1) Lose weight, 2) Exercise, 3) Eat organic, unprocessed foods, keto diet, 4) Adequate rest, 5) Avoid endocrine disruptors (plastics, pesticides, skin products).
She never mentions keto?
She's right. When I work some days are way harder than others, those days I'm way more pumped up and the ending is way more powerful. So it definitely does something when you work harder in a day.
So work hard in the day time , so night time you can perform much better.
I lost 42kg on the keto and intermittent fasting reversed my t2diabetes increased my fitness level resting bpm to 60 and max from 154 to 173bpm no inflammation no arthritis sharper mind solid sleep cycle
How did u do the intermittent fasting? I am type 2 diabetic
Thank you for always posting these important topics on your awesome channel here doc 😀
Very clear and informative video. I like the way you broke down everything and included facts and statistics. I'm definitely going to look out for more of your videos on here.
If you’re interested in trying natural supplements try fadogia and tongkat ali. I had my blood work done before I started taking both these and my T-levels were 523 ng/dL and after I started taking a supplement my testosterone levels were 950 ng/dL.
Very nice presentation Doctor, I loved it 👍,
Blessings
Exercise is the key to everything healthwise. Makes you feel better due to the endorphins released after pushing yourself.
Helps you sleep better.
Improves digestion.
Improves metabolism.
Makes you happier.
DON'T DO TOO MUCH THOUGH AS IT WILL BURN YOU OUT.
And dont forget resting is a huge part of exercising since most of the metabolic benefits come actually while deep sleeping after exercise, if you exercise but your sleep quality is bad you wont get as good results as you could
@@diffuusio4852 staying hydrated is just as important too
Not to mention a sick pump
As a person who has cared about my health (and read a lot) over many years, a study done in Denmark shoed that people that use low fat dairy in fact gained more weight over a time period that those who used full fat dairy products. So full fat may not only increase testosterone, but it may also help with weight loss. The brain runs on fat I think, so it doesn't hurt cognition either.
Forgot to mention how much I like Rena Malik's videos!!
I never saw the point of low fat milk, other than to increase dairy manufacturing profits.
Your heart runs on fat.
correlation is not causation. Calories are king and potentially the full fat milk increased satiety meaning less overall calories consumed but the study sounds flawed either way
Yes, fat is not making people fat ...it's sugar or rather high fructose corn syrup and comppunds like BPA thats in a bunch of products that has a worse effect
Thank you, Doctor, for helping us, greatly appreciate you for keeping us informed.
Just watching her increased my testosterone levels ;)
You could have mentioned that - Ashwagandha is a medicinal herb which is mentioned in Ancient Indian medicinal Practice "Ayurved" and it's courses !!!
hi Rena iam 55 sufring eraction dyfectiocy please help me
You are a great communicator. Your videos are rich in content.
Thankyou for all your help on staying healthy! Great job!
for me personally it was exercise, checking my anxiety/stress levels in combination with Pine pollen and Tribulus supplements. I'm now an absolute beast lol
I am a 75 year old male. Doing doing daily squats of 50 to a 100 makes a big difference in my sex life. One can do 2x50 day or less if one is a beginner, and increase slowly as one is able. No squats no, no performance.
Fantastic ❤
I started using Fenugreek, 600 mg per day, three years ago. I brought my testosterone total back into the normal range, and I feel much better.
The best testosterone booster is having a variety of young beautiful women.
Studies say that in order to maintain hormonal wellness (specifically saying testosterone) we need some threshold amount of fat, that’s why it is the reason for better result in muscle gain when body fat is 15-20% when compared to that of single digit fat %age.
What is your opinion doc ?
I'd go for right inbetween, around 10-12%
But I think it's more about the caloric intake - the fat is just a visible effect.
@@BWater-yq3jx yeah I agree,
Body fat percentage is actually an indication of the surplus calorie intake.
That's encouraging
So to sum it up. Live a healthy lifestyle
I take Ashwagandha and I noticed my muscles are slightly bulky and I don’t get stressed out as much.
Hey, where can one find this product u mentioned?!?
what brand do you use? Feel like there are so many
good
Thanks for the great video Rena! A question about the 4-week soy protein extract (or isolate) study: does the soy protein have any phytoestrogens left (or were they lost in the extraction/purification process)? Ethanol-washed soy protein isolates contain only minimal amounts of isoflavones (
Soy contains estrogen mi.icking compounds ! Soy products feminize Men & males, & cause sexual confusion, in children.
She forgot having healthy relationships, success (even small successes), and healthy competition
You are the BEST doctor. Thank you.
I've been doing that ketogenic diet and I can see the difference
Thank you very much for presenting educational videos- easily understandable, no selling, no talking down. Life changing for many totally clueless men.
Hello, Rena, I listen to you more and more nowadays. I keep hearing a lot about 16-hour fasting and 12-hour fasting but can you tell us some details about what you can and cannot eat/drink during the time and also the link between fasting and weight loss.
Beauty and wisdom.
I know the importance of deep sleep, but I've always wanted to experiment with Da Vinci's sleeping schedule. He only slept 20 minutes every four hours and is considered to be a very productive man. Is it possible, that our bodies can adapt over time, if we can adhere to this with absolute rigidity?
Try it. And write down your process and results.
@@sethcastillo2125 cool
no, if he slept so little its possible he had mental illness, which would make some sense given his genius and creativity, do u think u could adapt to 100 degrees celsius too?
A friend of mine tried the Da Vinci pattern as well as several others. He reported that all of them made him miserable and had no benefits. Da Vinci was clearly a black swan individual, and I doubt most of us can benefit from any of his life choices.
I think da Vinci was trolling his competition to make them do ridiculous shit
Enjoy all your videos...very very informative..ty
I'm 5' 6" and weighed almost 250 pounds. I had an A1C above 8.0 and a testosterone level at 35 whatever the unit measurment was...... 3 months later (and MILITANT KETO)..I am at 205 pounds with an A1C of 5.3 and a testosterone level of 210 of the same units (the range has a spread between 250-800) so I'm still under the minimum necessary but a lot better than I was. I'll get back to you when I lose another 15 pounds....
How did it go?
Good information, thank you. A tip for your video production. In this video, you were continually rocking back a forth from the camera. This caused your camera to continually adjust its exposure. Either sit still or set your exposure and take your camera off of auto exposure. Or do both. This will limit the distracting exposure changes throughout the video. Thanks again!
Thank you, Rena. Just watching your video doubled my (healthy) testosterone level. (I will also remember your scientific advice.)
I tested my testosterone last year and my free testosterone was 47 with a range 46-224 being normal. I'm 49 years old and weigh 180lbs at 6 foot tall. I sleep 8-8.5 hrs a night and run 5 days a week 25-30 miles a week. I stopped lifting weights last year because I could not make any progress. What do you think about TRT?
Honestly .. my own opinion is, I would never take TRT and I'm 55 years old. I wouldn't even take an Tylenol pill unless I needed to and forget about the statin drugs for cholesterol stay natural and you remain healthy. Never take a synthesized medication they all have side affects after long term usage. Basically all medication is poison. The body tolerates the substances, because the changes are engineered to be subtle. However, what is happening to the body is a function of lowering or elevating something with drugs. If you exercise and eat right you are ahead of the health game. Check into your natural habits first before considering TRT. There is to much focus in the world on a quick fix by popping a pill. Increase your testosterone by winning in life, competition raises your "t". Fixing and building things raises your "t". Being out in nature raises your "t". Accomplishing goals raise your "t". Speaking with attractive women raise you "t". Living life to the fullest raises your "t".
Too much running..
@@jirikrizik1320 Yup!
How do you figure that’s too much running?
Running is for soyboys. Men lift free weights.
This was really informative! Spot on Dr. Malik!
Great video. Thanks for the content.
Small bit of technical advice: either get much better (i.e. brighter) lighting, stop rocking back and forth, or turn off the auto exposure on your camera (i.e. set it manually before recording). It keeps switching as you move in and out and it’s VERY distracting.
I did a test on myself based on weekly volume facial hair shavings for various "T booster" herbs. Supposing there is a proportional effect there but it was an easy metric. Ashwagandha was the only thing out of several that caused any notable increase.
Its there in Indian texts for thousands of years! Actuallt, we all have this at out homes mostly
@@Manish-uk2ow My wife is from Sri Lanka with native tongue Sinhalese (a Sanskrit derivation) so she told me it means “smells like a horse.” :)

Studies done on young men have no bearing on the nutritional needs of an octogenarian.
I wanna know what works for 83-year-old ME !!
It would help greatly if we knew what our testosterone level SHOLUD be, and how to MEASURE what we have.
Testosterone boosting supplements:
Vitamin D
Zinc
Magnesium
Green tea
Ashwagandha
Tonkat ali
Tribulus
Shilajit
Fenagreek (not dat potent)
And perhaps Maca root
These are very good tips. healthy testosterone levels really can raise your quality of life. Make sure to get blood tested so you know where your levels are at, don't guess. If you have very low levels seek help from a trusted and reputable HRT / TRT clinic. Our levels decline with age so make sure to stay as healthy as possible to help combat that issue. Men and women benefit from healthy hormone levels. Good job and good info Rena!
Thanks for the video and knowledge shared.
Do you know how long it'll take on average to see changes in testosterone when this lifestyle changes are made?
Thanks in advance🙂
Young men in those studies are likely to have move adaptive mechanisms to keep testosterone levels up.
Studies shouls be done on older men who have lower metabolism, etc to compensate for external effects (the target problem group / use case)
Thank you Rena your helping lots of men out there and its nice to have a attractive advice Doctor help us.
You're right. Isoflavones are estrogen-like compounds. They bind to the estrogen receptors like estrogen does, but are infact much less potent then actual human/animal estrogen. Meaning they will pronounce some estrogenic effect but way less then real estrogen does. And since it binds to the estrogen receptors (the gates that allow estrogen to have their effect), it will make some slots unavailable for real estrogen to bind. Also meaning less estrogenic effect since your own is way more potent (or maybe the chicken, eggs, dairy you consume). Soy is actully a helper when it comes to lowering estrogen in the body, or at least it's effects. Might wanna consider soy for all estrogen related problems guys and girls.
I didn't think about it that way.
Go soy.
You are rocking forward and back throughout this video. This causes the exposure of the video camera to flicker as the camera attempts to compensate for the varying light levels. It is quite distracting. You could lock your exposure and/or move your lights back further from your face. I hope this helps.
It ain’t that deep
or she could just lock the exposure and just change it when the light meter is far off.
As a person with over 25+ years of training at the gym, natural and very strong. I agree with a majority of what you are saying. Don't eat to much fat, but don't restrict it unless you are fat. Most test boosters, sups, pills, and so on will not do crap for you. Only way is if a person takes steroids. Then it must be for the rest of your life as it reduces your natural test and that has side effects. Such as heart issues. Make sure you get enough sleep. We all know that we don't perform as well when tired and it can destroy our day. Try to eat healthy and exercise. Do research into these to topics yourself and find foods you enjoy and exercises you enjoy also. Then do them.
Solid, sensible advice Kirk
As a 20-year gym natural veteran, I'm 40 and feel good. My gf is exactly half my age (sophomore in college) and she's very strong in 🛏️ , so I need to do everything I can to keep up. 🤣
@@ytsux9259 LOL
Pretty sound advice...a good diet is Ketogenic. Reduction of sugars through reduction of carbs and eating good fats is HEALTHY. Have a look at Dr Ken Berry...He puts the L in Logic
Thank god the man with 25 years training at the gym was here to validate what the doctor said. I wouldn't have trusted her without your vouch.
I went on a ketogenic diet and lost nearly 100 lbs and tripling my T. This was a high fat, low carb diet. Fat, cholesterol, etc. are crucial for sex hormone production and the absorption of fat soluble vitamins like D. Of course vitamin D is the building block of testosterone.
For some people a high fat diet is not really an option. They can still lower their carbohydrate intake, keep their fat intake down and get weight loss and fat loss.
@@bighands69 I understand that. I’m not saying everyone should do it. I’m saying that’s what I did.
@@bighands69 Understanding Mitochondria function disproves your assumption.
@@PortugueseKeto
Nothing wrong if it worked for you. There are different options out there. If the vast majority of the population decreased their carbohydrate intake disease would decrease.
@@cryptostormer2512
Not sure what you mean?
Hmm...you basically just told me to do everything I'm not currently doing. And I wonder why I feel like crap all the time. Okay, thanks for the video! Maybe it'll sink in. :)
The only problem is that Testosterone is directly linked to cholesterol, one effects the other and in cases where one has high cholesterol and I statin medication is percribed to reduce cholesterol, it effects testosterone. So balance of diet and exercise is very important.
I know she knows way more about testosterone than me, but she has never felt it coursing through her veins 😂😂 or the lack of it
Cholesterol levels are markers for cardio vascular disease potential. However it might depend on your diet, LDL cholesterol is recycled by the liver, but sugar and oxidation, both linked to what you eat, will modify LDL, prevent LDL from being recycled by the liver and modified LDL will end up blocking arteries. I would recommend watching doctor Paul Mason 's TH-cam video on metabolic syndrome.
Looking at you itself just shot up my testosterone levels sky rocketing...
Kikikikiki😂😂😂😂😂
