If you are allergic to pollen, please be carefull for the bee pollen. My ex girlfriend was almost dead by trying one spoon. Her throat swole by the point she almost couldnt breathe. Luckily someone in her surroundings got an anti allergic pen.
idk what happened but i ate some raw honey today (ive consumed lots of honey before but mostly pasteurized i think) and within 30min i threw up and now im fine, however i doubt its from the honey rather something else (could just be sick)
Quran chapter 16: 68 And your Lord inspired the bees: “Make ˹your˺ homes in the mountains, the trees, and in what people construct, 69 and feed from ˹the flower of˺ any fruit ˹you please˺ and follow the ways your Lord has made easy for you.” From their bellies comes forth liquid of varying colours, in which there is healing for people. Surely in this is a sign for those who reflect.
Most men today have suboptimal levels of testosterone - a lot less than their fathers or grandfathers had just 30-50 years ago. There are various reasons for this. One factor that is oftentimes neglected is endocrine disruptors in our environment (i.e., xenoestrogens, BPA, phthalates, triclosan, etc.), phytoestrogens in food (i.e., soy, which is in almost all processed foods), and hypothyroidism (subclinical or autoimmune Hashimoto's disease). To increase testosterone levels naturally and reduce chronic inflammation: • Get enough daily sunlight. • Supplement with vitamin D3 (especially during the winter or if you live in a northern climate). • Supplement with zinc picolinate (20 - 40 mg per day). • Supplement with magnesium glycinate or citrate. • Weight train regularly (3 - 5 times per week for 45 - 90 minutes). • Prioritize neuromuscular recovery, don't over-train. • Get adequate (quality) sleep. • Consume more healthy fats (monounsaturated and saturated fats from sources like grass-fed red meat, pasture-raised eggs, fatty fish, organic full-fat dairy, coconut fat, avocados, cocoa butter, certain nuts and seeds, etc.). • Increase your cholesterol intake through properly-sourced whole foods. Cholesterol is the building block of all steroid hormones, including testosterone. • Control stress. Do what you have to do to keep it under control (things like meditation, yoga, nature walks, relaxing music, massage/reflexology sessions, adaptogenic herbs, etc.). • Chronically elevated cortisol levels disrupt the HPT (hypothalamus-pituitary-thyroid) axis and deplete your body of the very resources it needs to produce androgens, including testosterone. • Eat enough quality calories (not all calories are the same), and avoid large caloric deficits. • Eat adequate amounts of each macronutrient (protein, carbs, fats). All of them are important in their own way and serve specific functions. Beneficial supplements: • Ashwagandha • Maca • Taurine • L-Carnitine (increases androgen receptor density) • Creatine • Tongkat ali • Fadogia agrestis • Black ginger • Pine pollen (contains natural androgens) • Boron (increases free testosterone) • DIM (natural anti-estrogen) "The Testosterone Advantage" by Timotheus Ray is a nice read on male health and hormone optimization.
Pretty sure it's been proven that smoking cigarettes increases testosterone and you cant convince me that those huge bearded Irishmen who drink whiskey and smoke all.the time dont have high testosterone. Same with those big mf russians who are mostly alcoholics
I would even say you can eat some processed foods, smoke and drink sometimes and it won't offset all the benefits of other stuff. Also, there is nothing super bad about processed foods it's only the over consumption that's bad. It's actually quite convenient and nutritious.
@@JustChill-zd4ib usually when people are recommending against processed foods they really mean ultra processed foods which are full of many ingredients foreign to the human body, many of which absolutely are unhealthy. Your body is complex, you can't just throw a bunch of foreign things into it and expect good long term health
You know what gives you high af testosterone? Lifestyle. Stop looking for magic supplements, eat healthy, do cardio, lift, sleep more, do something you enjoy, something creative and relax when stress is high. There, the magic formula.
He's just doing a special on a specific part of the eating healthy category bro. So do onions amongst other natural foods, which is a part of eating healthy
@@brockp691 Yeah and he glosses over the very core reason for having high test. A vast majority of people watching don't have all of the core lifestyle elements all sorted out and chugging honey won't do shit. There is so much to be said about lifestyle and testosterone but this guy made a video on fucking honey.
I eat about 5 tbsp of honey everyday for years now. It is good, but the most practical use of it is as a substitute of sugar. But don't have the illusion that it will skyrocket your test. That comes only by lifestyle changes.
I've completely cut out any of that excess sugar and skipped straight to eating the bees themselves. I've found this to be the most efficient way to extract all the benefits of any bee product.
I have noticed that honey I bought at the store tastes weird (like sugar water) and very quickly crystallizes so much that you can't even get it out of the container after only eating a few spoonfuls of it. So I started getting raw honey from a local beekeeper. This local raw honey is awesome. It never crystallizes, and the flavor is 1000x better. If you can, buy it from a local beekeeper. That way, you'll support a local business, and there is a much greater chance that the honey you are eating is REAL, because honey, like olive oil, is very heavily counterfeited, and most of what you find on the supermarket shelves is not real.
True. Quality of food is the most important part. Mostly everything you find i stores is fake. Like 99.9% of all food in stores is fake. I have organic honey from the store. I also have raw organic honey from a local farmer stand. Major difference. I use as a sugar substitute as well. Unless the sugar is from fruit/raw organic cane sugar.
Crystallization is about water content. Most honey is super saturated and will crystallize eventually. If it never crystallizes it either has a lot of water (you don't need to add water, it depends on where the bees get the honey) or it has been carefully filtered to remove tiny seed crystals so it can remain super-saturated for a long time. Honey that never crystallizes is a bit weird and probably messed with.
@@soylentgreenbthat is what I thought. I live in Germany and in most grocery store, they are selling local Rae honey, there are different kind of honey, but there are some, that are crystals. The local Rae honey in Germany have rules, that they should not heat up to 40°C, than it is not called "raw" in law. It is actually normal, that honey crystalise
@@soylentgreenb Authentic honey which is heat treated will not crystallise and stays runny but the heating eliminates many of the health benefits. Crystalised honey is a good sign but inconvenient.
@@BudgetInnovation1 Heating may not be enough. You can disolve sugar crystals but pollen and other stuff can be seeds for crystal formation and you need to both heat and ultrafiltration for it to stay runny essentially forever. It may still crystalize eventually if you get some contaminant like flour or dust in there but left in the jar it won't. Microfiltration is not good enough. Microfiltered honey can still be sold as raw honey in the US and some other places if it has not been heated above a certain temperature.
Dude I feel the same 😂 significant improvements in life when you lift heavy, feed your body with all the essential nutrients and vitamins such as meat, dairy, and eggs, as well as getting 10 hours of sleep.

My go to snack: organic fruit with lots of raw organic honey and Real salt poured over it, and raw beef liver with the honey and salt poured onto it. Some times also add a glass of raw milk with shilajit resin and the raw honey stirred into it. It tastes so good!
Love honey myself but didn't know there was a difference between raw and supermarket honey. Thanks for raising my awareness on this, will definitely be buying raw honey from now on. Great video.
@om-qg7ju not theyre not, unless you're at a health store. Also a huge amount of regular supermarket honey is mixed with seed oils and other nasty stuff
A game changer is proper water, plastic water bottles (commercially produced ones) leech particles into your beverages which bind to your estrogen receptors, estrogen is also even found in tap water, I don’t even know how effective the bindings are for your overall estrogen or how much is in the water, but I’m just saying for me only weeks after stopping all plastic bottles and drinking only reverse osmosis water I started to grow facial hair with some actual substance, I haven’t in years
My grandfather was a beekeeper for 80 years. Used pollen, Royal jelly, and raw honey everyday. He was strong as a bull, lean and mentally sharp till the day he died from an accident. He was 98 and still loading 70 pound bee hive supers into his pickup truck. Had a 60 year old girlfriend. He was 100 percent raw dude. I want to be just like him.
My father brings raw honey from the congo, and i have been consuming it for a while. Best decision I have ever. Not only it tastes better than supermarket honey, but it's healthier also.
do more, sun daily, early sleep, blue blocker at evening, darkness at night, taped mouth to fix apnea, glycine and theanine before sleep, magnesium, exercise, stretching and shaking/jumping to push all fluids to detox, better diet, no alco, no overeating or drinking at evening, it's your actions and knowledge not faith, build mental strength as muscles, increasing load but fighting heavyness for short periods with long recovery, this way you never freak out in stress but get ready for it, and start knowing you can do more than you believe and prepare external tools pushing you forward when yiu yourself can't, ignorance towards own limits can be a blessing too haha learnt it far to late... everything gets easier later on on the road with all small improvements accumulating and building invisibly confidence, there is always time, it's much worse for women... 😂😂

People in the comments saying this is not true are so blind honey is a gift from the almighty it’s literally so incredible what it does to you I take a spoon full before a workout and train like a beast and the. Take more after and feel amazing
Let me give you my recipe for navigating you trough this rough time. I had something similar weeks ago and I managed to get trough it with mainly this: I did go everyday to the gym. Listened a ton of Andrew tate and goggins motivation videos while training. Just do it on repeat, the same videos. Just train like an animal. Channel all the frustration in to becoming the man that you always wanted to be. You will feel good man.

A note about the losing fat thing. Losing too much fat will absolutely be just as much as a problem. Natural bodybuilders who get super shredded always always always end up having their testosterone tank, I've heard of one guy dropping to the testosterone of an old man. The optimal body fat percentage for health for most men is 14-18%, maybe 20% if you're a naturally heavier guy and maybe 12 if you've been skinny your whole life.
True. I'd argue anything over 15% and you start to get into estrogenic territory with the amount of aromatase in your fat tissue. Anything over 20% should definitely be avoided. I feel pretty good around 12-14% body fat.
I am one of those unlucky guys who only add it on the stomach in a pouch, and on the breasts. So if i want to be shredded i have to be virtually free of fat.
if i may, do more "compound movements" - as a former Amateur Bodybuilder; these are different than "isolation" movements, such as the bicep curl on a Preacher Bench and most isolation machinery [machines aren’t “bad” - just use them as isolation exercises more than compound exercises]. We used to have a saying for guys that were smaller but could lift/pull as much as the bulbous-looking dudes: ‘Farm Strong’ - these guys usually came from Farms or grew up on them, where you do a lot of complex, varied movements involving multiple muscle groups ('compound movements') such as bailing hay, lifting and transporting animals and equipment, stake driving and digging, etc etc - all movements that are not ‘one flex of any one thing’ type of isolation movements, these are all complex/compound, large movements of the body that involve many muscle groups at once. Modern gyms started to incorporate a lot of this type of stuff as of about the 2000’s or so - you can now do workouts with large ropes, huge heavy tyres/tires, kettle bells and other apparatus’ that mimic these compound ‘farming’ movements, with large and complex movements of the body. These types of exercises will strengthen not only the muscles themselves but also the tendons that attach muscle to bone (and to a small extent, the ligaments that attach bones to other bones). Start slow/light on these if your equipment allows, but increases of these Compound Movement exercises over time, will definitely strengthen your tendons and joints. HTH GL with it
I take a substance called bee pollen concentrate. It's a substance made from bee pollen that was made into fine dust by being pulverized then exploded in a vacuum, then stirred into manuka honey. I take a teaspoon and put it under my tongue and it gives me an energy rush that's so smooth and long lasting.
@@CReedProductions I think it's One World Zero Waste. I get it from the Farmers Market down here in Hollywood FL. The guy claims it's honey gets from local bee farmers around here, but the packaging looks exactly identical to what I see on the website for One World Zero Waste. Either way, that company is also in South FL, so I guess he's not "lying" about where he's getting it.
I would also recommend bee bread aka perga. As it is a fermented product the nutrients are more bioavailable and it is easier to digest than just pollen.
Great Video Ben... Moved to Florida from the North a year ago & realized that pine pollen was messing with my sinuses pretty bad... Started taking raw local honey from a local bee keeper & all of my allergic symptoms disappeared entirely within one week...

I m a type 1 diabetic and i ve replaced the bs dextrose they reccomend us with honey for when i m low. Training hard and a good diet makes me feel like a beast 😼
Avoid any type of sugar PERIOD! Raw honey, berries (especially red and blueberries), these will actually help reverse diabetes. Diabetes occurs with a lack of antioxidants (fruits and honey are high in!) and desensitization of the insulin pathways coupled with elevated BLOOD-SUGAR. Fruits and honey will return balance to your insulin sensitivity because they require much more time to be processed and have the antioxidants to protect your cells from damages. Eat more red meat, fish, drink non-homogenized milk, lightly pasteurized is okay... cut the processed foods and carbs. You will literally save your flesh from rotting off of your body.
Not so fast dude ! Honey indeed has crysin which may lower estrogen levels but the amount of crysin on honey is minimal….and eat honey everyday will give you good amount of weight.
That actually makes sense, ancient Greeks used raw honey mixed with black pepper as a topical ointment to treat ED. And the Vikings would drink Mead, which is an alcoholic beverage made from fermented honey.
Some sugars are good, some are not. And being shredded is entirely based on calorie intake vs how many calories you burn. You can eat some of the worst foods and still be shredded, if you just don't eat that much.
Ah yes, the United States of America, the epitome of dietary health. I don't know why you mentioned a Greek island there, but we are not much better. Thing is carbs are not inherently bad, just like all natural things, the dosage makes the poison. Most of the world is on a diet of high processed carbs and shitty trans fats from fake foods. Which resulted in a steady rise of metabolic diseases, such as type 2 diabetes. I ain't gonna tell you what to eat, you do you. I just hope you really know what you are doing. Nonetheless, the statement that "sugar is good" is plain and simply, wrong. Sugar sucks and all it gives you is a quick fix of energy in the cost of high insulin spikes.@@PolishPrince2
I do something similar, I put honey in my protein shake. Half of it I drink after dinner, and half I put in my overnight oats so they soak and ferment a bit (raw milk and a bit of kefir). Was thinking of adding bee pollen or bee bread to it. Do you think the bee bread benefits justify its higher price compared to bee pollen?
Your kefir is pasteurized. Try sourcing raw milk and kefir grains to make your own. Pasteurized kefir only contains one type of bacteria as the rest are killed by the heating process. All of the good bacteria is killed; up to 50 different kinds are in raw unpasteurized kefir. Thanks for the vid 👍
i raise bees and "heat treat" my own honey and when you do that its literally just straining the dead bees/limbs out and heating it up so its easier to pour. It dosent magically get rid of all the good stuff. other than that this video is pretty informative.
Planted wildflower garden, used to have thirtyfive bumblebees and twenty five honey bees daily three years ago almost zero last year until September then ten bees and a few bumblebees, now just started a few bumblebees and a few bees, five total. What's happening, in sub of Detroit?
Also you can eat pine pollen- that jumps your testosterone. The indians used to carry around a bag of pine pollen and consume some before going into a fight cause it hyped them up with testosterone
Do not eat honey. We are car ivores by design. Sugar is not healthy for the human body. If you want to increase testosterone, eat fatty meats. Cholesterol, saturated fats and protein are needed to healthy hormones levels. Filter your water, do not wear synthetic clothes, put a filter on your shower head, get sunlight, do not drunk, exercise, no processed foods, get sleep, walk when you can, reduce stress. That will recover a lot of testosterone you lost assuming you haven't dealt permanent damage.
If we're carnivores why do we have molars for grinding plant food and longer digestive tracts than other carnivores for digesting it? And why can't human bodies synthesise vitamin C (all carnivores can do this, and other than humans, only animals that rely on fruit have lost this trait). This would suggest that in our evolutionary past we got so much vitamin C from our diets that we no longer needed to synthesise it. And vitamin C isn't found in very high amounts from animal sources, which is why carnivores synthesise it themselves. You'd need hundreds of grams of liver and spleen daily just to reach the RDA. I agree with 99% of what you're saying except the idea that we should only eat meat
@@BenWinney We do not grind food. Our jaws are not designed to grind like horses and cows, etc. The inability to synthesize vitamin c is not an indication other than itself. That is an observation. That be like saying well because carnivores have sharp teeth, nothing without sharp teeth cannot be carnivores. Yet, there are several species that have no teeth, and they eat only meat. Fish included. Humans do not need high volume of vitamin c. If you consume carbs, your vit c needs go up because of the GLUC 4 transporter. The RDA values the government created is all bullshit. That is all based on their balanced diet which is not scientifically based. There is no study proving the true Nutrional needs for humans. Never has been a study conducted. Only inferences made. The body needs varying nutrients depending on the diet of chose. Lots of vegetables and fruits have antinutrients and prevent nutrient absorption. Ancestrally, humans ate over 80% of food from muscle meat for hundreds of thousands of years. It has been proven that carbs and sugars spike your blood, cause damaged to your cells. impact digestion and inflame your brain. These are all bio markers that show us we are not to eat this stuff because it disrupts cell function. Eat your processed foods, fruits, veggies, etc and your stool will be smeared and will need to wipe your ass. Go carnivore, and literally no joke, you do not need to wipe. There is nothing there. Eat anything but meat, and you pass a lot of the food you ate, eat only meat, your body breakdowns and uses over 95% and your stool volume is very little. Eat only meat and you will reverse your age. Your body runs off proteins, saturated fats, and cholesterol from meat. Go listen to Dr. Shawn Baker, Dr. Anthony Chaffee, Professor Bart Kay, Dr, Ken Berry, etc. They expose all the lies. Our digestive track is carnivore. We have 5 organs working in concert to use bile, to help breakdown protein and fats. Already proven the body can only handle at most 4 grams of sugar in one sitting and this causes the body to quickly eliminate sugar from the body. Same with carbs. Carbs age the body 7 times faster. Carbs and sugars cause stress to the cells and impair mitochondrial function. Vegans need meat or they will starve and die. Other groups who eat a balanced diet are either fat or sick from processed foods. or are aging like milk. Only pure meat eaters show the optimal health. Our brain runs off of fats, not carbs. Not only are vegetables slowly destroying your organs, but they can only be broken down by the microbes in your guy, without them, cannot break them down much. Meat can do it fully on our own. Randell cycle proves we are to be meat eaters too. Also, historically, the evidence is all there that we are meat eaters. The hunter gatherers are bs. We gathered nuts, seeds and berries in means of starvation. We are well over 80% meat. The later cavillations, once the agricultural boom, they started moving further away from meat purely, and health dropped. Go carnivore and fully adapt over 6 months clean carnivores. Grass fed and grass finished. Then go introduce fruits, vegetables, nuts, etc. without processed foods. I guarantee you will feel like shit afterwards. Once you eliminate the crap and get on our species-specific diet, which is carnivore, the body heals itself from all the signaling damage done by processed foods and fruits, veggies and grains. Your body will tell you really quick what it wants. Our bodies are machines. The body knows what we need.
@mingus445_gaming Mich better than processed foods. I've been there before too. Walmart has marketside grassfed meat. Think $6.28 a pound, and if you buy the 3 pack, it's under $6 a pound. I started there until I swapped to a farmer. Try finding a local farmer. Might find better deals. Would say to try get beef in a meal each day if possible. Or every other day.
@mingus445_gaming Eggs are really good. If rice, get the jasmine rice. It's better than the garbage rice here in the USA. Also, soak the rice and rinse until water is bot cloudy.
I understood we can not digest pollen and also that honey is high fructose that can't be metabolized for calories directly, needs to get stored as fat and used later IF you get into ketosis
IMO it's the microbes that eat sugar that are causing so many health issues, like low testosterone. Honey is better than sugar, but avoiding sugar and starch is a key. Thus, switching to a Paleo diet helps.
Read the labels on the honey in the store. If it says 'unfiltered', 'unprocessed', 'unheated' etc. that's better than the regular stuff, even if it's not perfect raw honey.
It’s a good thing you talked about how most honey is just sugar syrup. I’m not sure about the insuline thing though. Honey obviously contains sugar which can and will make you fat if overused, which will then significantly drop testosterone. If you want to prevent an insuline spike (to not feel tired/ get diabetes) it’s good to eat something without carbs beforehand. This will also work for let’s say pizza or pasta. If you eat a large salad before a pizza your insulin levels won’t go through the roof like it usually would.
Is the manuka honey I buy better than my local organic raw honey? I pay so much for manuka honey and see the raw honey is a lot cheaper. Thank you for this video. Just subscribed
Thanks for the response! I'll stick with the raw local organic glyphosate free! And it's cheaper than manuka@@zebrom7994 but where can I look into it? I want to see what you saw
I am lucky to be near a store where they actually hire a lab to test the honey for chemicals. If a honey they import isn't up to their testing they simply don't buy. They can afford this because they are a small chain so can buy big enough to justify the lab test costs. If you could find something like that, that would be ideal. Some beekeepers's bees go all over farms full of pesticides and stuff and their honey is contaminated.
Just eat as much as is comfortable for you. This won't be your main tool for improving testosterone, it's just a little something you can add. I have a few tablespoons throughout the day, in things like smoothies, yogurt, maybe with fruit
If you are allergic to pollen, please be carefull for the bee pollen. My ex girlfriend was almost dead by trying one spoon. Her throat swole by the point she almost couldnt breathe. Luckily someone in her surroundings got an anti allergic pen.

@@insabonFull of antioxidants, antibacterial properties, healing properties and tons of other health benefits.
I've completely cut out any of that excess sugar and skipped straight to eating the bees themselves. I've found this to be the most efficient way to extract all the benefits of any bee product.
@@fatboi1095 dip your bees in honey for maximum impact.
Dude it gives you Bear test
I have noticed that honey I bought at the store tastes weird (like sugar water) and very quickly crystallizes so much that you can't even get it out of the container after only eating a few spoonfuls of it. So I started getting raw honey from a local beekeeper. This local raw honey is awesome. It never crystallizes, and the flavor is 1000x better. If you can, buy it from a local beekeeper. That way, you'll support a local business, and there is a much greater chance that the honey you are eating is REAL, because honey, like olive oil, is very heavily counterfeited, and most of what you find on the supermarket shelves is not real.
True. Quality of food is the most important part. Mostly everything you find i stores is fake. Like 99.9% of all food in stores is fake. I have organic honey from the store. I also have raw organic honey from a local farmer stand. Major difference. I use as a sugar substitute as well. Unless the sugar is from fruit/raw organic cane sugar.
Crystallization is about water content. Most honey is super saturated and will crystallize eventually. If it never crystallizes it either has a lot of water (you don't need to add water, it depends on where the bees get the honey) or it has been carefully filtered to remove tiny seed crystals so it can remain super-saturated for a long time. Honey that never crystallizes is a bit weird and probably messed with.
@@soylentgreenbthat is what I thought. I live in Germany and in most grocery store, they are selling local Rae honey, there are different kind of honey, but there are some, that are crystals. The local Rae honey in Germany have rules, that they should not heat up to 40°C, than it is not called "raw" in law. It is actually normal, that honey crystalise
@@soylentgreenb Authentic honey which is heat treated will not crystallise and stays runny but the heating eliminates many of the health benefits. Crystalised honey is a good sign but inconvenient.
@@BudgetInnovation1 Heating may not be enough. You can disolve sugar crystals but pollen and other stuff can be seeds for crystal formation and you need to both heat and ultrafiltration for it to stay runny essentially forever. It may still crystalize eventually if you get some contaminant like flour or dust in there but left in the jar it won't. Microfiltration is not good enough.
Microfiltered honey can still be sold as raw honey in the US and some other places if it has not been heated above a certain temperature.

My grandfather was a beekeeper for 80 years. Used pollen, Royal jelly, and raw honey everyday. He was strong as a bull, lean and mentally sharp till the day he died from an accident. He was 98 and still loading 70 pound bee hive supers into his pickup truck. Had a 60 year old girlfriend. He was 100 percent raw dude. I want to be just like him.

If the bees are feeding on toxic flowers(or gmo flowers), you will get a different effect than honey from better sources.

A note about the losing fat thing. Losing too much fat will absolutely be just as much as a problem. Natural bodybuilders who get super shredded always always always end up having their testosterone tank, I've heard of one guy dropping to the testosterone of an old man.
The optimal body fat percentage for health for most men is 14-18%, maybe 20% if you're a naturally heavier guy and maybe 12 if you've been skinny your whole life.
True. I'd argue anything over 15% and you start to get into estrogenic territory with the amount of aromatase in your fat tissue. Anything over 20% should definitely be avoided.
I feel pretty good around 12-14% body fat.
I am one of those unlucky guys who only add it on the stomach in a pouch, and on the breasts. So if i want to be shredded i have to be virtually free of fat.

Collegen peptides.
If you have a lot of joint pain or tendinitis after working out, that's the best way to help without having to fully take time off.
@@pewpewTNand fascia training, twice a day or every 8hours
but the effect wears off if you stop
if i may, do more "compound movements" - as a former Amateur Bodybuilder; these are different than "isolation" movements, such as the bicep curl on a Preacher Bench and most isolation machinery [machines aren’t “bad” - just use them as isolation exercises more than compound exercises]. We used to have a saying for guys that were smaller but could lift/pull as much as the bulbous-looking dudes: ‘Farm Strong’ - these guys usually came from Farms or grew up on them, where you do a lot of complex, varied movements involving multiple muscle groups ('compound movements') such as bailing hay, lifting and transporting animals and equipment, stake driving and digging, etc etc - all movements that are not ‘one flex of any one thing’ type of isolation movements, these are all complex/compound, large movements of the body that involve many muscle groups at once. Modern gyms started to incorporate a lot of this type of stuff as of about the 2000’s or so - you can now do workouts with large ropes, huge heavy tyres/tires, kettle bells and other apparatus’ that mimic these compound ‘farming’ movements, with large and complex movements of the body. These types of exercises will strengthen not only the muscles themselves but also the tendons that attach muscle to bone (and to a small extent, the ligaments that attach bones to other bones). Start slow/light on these if your equipment allows, but increases of these Compound Movement exercises over time, will definitely strengthen your tendons and joints. HTH GL with it
Research peptide therapy. Especially focus on the peptide called BPC 157. There are a lot of TH-cam videos online that will teach you about BPC 157.
Slow eccentrics with compound movements as it will increase boood flow to those areas. Blood has a lot of growth properties

Great to hear that bro honey is amazing
Avoid any type of sugar PERIOD! Raw honey, berries (especially red and blueberries), these will actually help reverse diabetes. Diabetes occurs with a lack of antioxidants (fruits and honey are high in!) and desensitization of the insulin pathways coupled with elevated BLOOD-SUGAR. Fruits and honey will return balance to your insulin sensitivity because they require much more time to be processed and have the antioxidants to protect your cells from damages. Eat more red meat, fish, drink non-homogenized milk, lightly pasteurized is okay... cut the processed foods and carbs. You will literally save your flesh from rotting off of your body.
If you don't like greens, use spirulina or chlorella, cilantro is also great for blood health as well.

That actually makes sense, ancient Greeks used raw honey mixed with black pepper as a topical ointment to treat ED.

So sugar is good. Ive been saying that for years. I eat 80% carbohydrates and im still shredded at 34.
Some sugars are good, some are not. And being shredded is entirely based on calorie intake vs how many calories you burn. You can eat some of the worst foods and still be shredded, if you just don't eat that much.
I'm sure your pancreas and liver love you for it
Glycative damage will be the end of you. Terrible live choice.
The people that live the longest eat primarily carbs. Think Okinawa,loma Linda California, icarea etc. The blue zones! It's all sugar.
Ah yes, the United States of America, the epitome of dietary health. I don't know why you mentioned a Greek island there, but we are not much better.
Thing is carbs are not inherently bad, just like all natural things, the dosage makes the poison. Most of the world is on a diet of high processed carbs and shitty trans fats from fake foods. Which resulted in a steady rise of metabolic diseases, such as type 2 diabetes. I ain't gonna tell you what to eat, you do you. I just hope you really know what you are doing. Nonetheless, the statement that "sugar is good" is plain and simply, wrong. Sugar sucks and all it gives you is a quick fix of energy in the cost of high insulin spikes.@@PolishPrince2

Damn imagine how much testosterone all the bees have
Nature's gigachads
Also you can eat pine pollen- that jumps your testosterone. The indians used to carry around a bag of pine pollen and consume some before going into a fight cause it hyped them up with testosterone
Do not eat honey. We are car ivores by design. Sugar is not healthy for the human body.
If you want to increase testosterone, eat fatty meats. Cholesterol, saturated fats and protein are needed to healthy hormones levels.
Filter your water, do not wear synthetic clothes, put a filter on your shower head, get sunlight, do not drunk, exercise, no processed foods, get sleep, walk when you can, reduce stress. That will recover a lot of testosterone you lost assuming you haven't dealt permanent damage.
If we're carnivores why do we have molars for grinding plant food and longer digestive tracts than other carnivores for digesting it? And why can't human bodies synthesise vitamin C (all carnivores can do this, and other than humans, only animals that rely on fruit have lost this trait). This would suggest that in our evolutionary past we got so much vitamin C from our diets that we no longer needed to synthesise it. And vitamin C isn't found in very high amounts from animal sources, which is why carnivores synthesise it themselves. You'd need hundreds of grams of liver and spleen daily just to reach the RDA.
I agree with 99% of what you're saying except the idea that we should only eat meat
@@BenWinney We do not grind food. Our jaws are not designed to grind like horses and cows, etc. The inability to synthesize vitamin c is not an indication other than itself. That is an observation. That be like saying well because carnivores have sharp teeth, nothing without sharp teeth cannot be carnivores. Yet, there are several species that have no teeth, and they eat only meat. Fish included.
Humans do not need high volume of vitamin c. If you consume carbs, your vit c needs go up because of the GLUC 4 transporter.
The RDA values the government created is all bullshit. That is all based on their balanced diet which is not scientifically based. There is no study proving the true Nutrional needs for humans. Never has been a study conducted. Only inferences made. The body needs varying nutrients depending on the diet of chose. Lots of vegetables and fruits have antinutrients and prevent nutrient absorption.
Ancestrally, humans ate over 80% of food from muscle meat for hundreds of thousands of years. It has been proven that carbs and sugars spike your blood, cause damaged to your cells. impact digestion and inflame your brain. These are all bio markers that show us we are not to eat this stuff because it disrupts cell function.
Eat your processed foods, fruits, veggies, etc and your stool will be smeared and will need to wipe your ass. Go carnivore, and literally no joke, you do not need to wipe. There is nothing there.
Eat anything but meat, and you pass a lot of the food you ate, eat only meat, your body breakdowns and uses over 95% and your stool volume is very little.
Eat only meat and you will reverse your age. Your body runs off proteins, saturated fats, and cholesterol from meat.
Go listen to Dr. Shawn Baker, Dr. Anthony Chaffee, Professor Bart Kay, Dr, Ken Berry, etc. They expose all the lies.
Our digestive track is carnivore. We have 5 organs working in concert to use bile, to help breakdown protein and fats.
Already proven the body can only handle at most 4 grams of sugar in one sitting and this causes the body to quickly eliminate sugar from the body. Same with carbs. Carbs age the body 7 times faster. Carbs and sugars cause stress to the cells and impair mitochondrial function.
Vegans need meat or they will starve and die. Other groups who eat a balanced diet are either fat or sick from processed foods. or are aging like milk. Only pure meat eaters show the optimal health.
Our brain runs off of fats, not carbs. Not only are vegetables slowly destroying your organs, but they can only be broken down by the microbes in your guy, without them, cannot break them down much. Meat can do it fully on our own.
Randell cycle proves we are to be meat eaters too.
Also, historically, the evidence is all there that we are meat eaters. The hunter gatherers are bs. We gathered nuts, seeds and berries in means of starvation. We are well over 80% meat. The later cavillations, once the agricultural boom, they started moving further away from meat purely, and health dropped.
Go carnivore and fully adapt over 6 months clean carnivores. Grass fed and grass finished. Then go introduce fruits, vegetables, nuts, etc. without processed foods. I guarantee you will feel like shit afterwards. Once you eliminate the crap and get on our species-specific diet, which is carnivore, the body heals itself from all the signaling damage done by processed foods and fruits, veggies and grains. Your body will tell you really quick what it wants. Our bodies are machines. The body knows what we need.
@@austinmeredith6647 while i agree, i am broke and therefore unable to live off of meat. what is your opinion on rice and eggs?

Read the labels on the honey in the store. If it says 'unfiltered', 'unprocessed', 'unheated' etc. that's better than the regular stuff, even if it's not perfect raw honey.

Do you mix it with a liquid?
It’s a good thing you talked about how most honey is just sugar syrup. I’m not sure about the insuline thing though. Honey obviously contains sugar which can and will make you fat if overused, which will then significantly drop testosterone. If you want to prevent an insuline spike (to not feel tired/ get diabetes) it’s good to eat something without carbs beforehand. This will also work for let’s say pizza or pasta. If you eat a large salad before a pizza your insulin levels won’t go through the roof like it usually would.
I take raw honey before or after workouts. It betterñ disperses or utilizes the nutrients

I am lucky to be near a store where they actually hire a lab to test the honey for chemicals. If a honey they import isn't up to their testing they simply don't buy. They can afford this because they are a small chain so can buy big enough to justify the lab test costs. If you could find something like that, that would be ideal. Some beekeepers's bees go all over farms full of pesticides and stuff and their honey is contaminated.

I guzzle Oregon raw honey, cost me about $14 a pound and it lasts me ages
