Have blood tests done if you are concerned.

Here's some reading material for you while you wait in the doctor's office

Thanks. I looked at some of those sites. You know what I'm missing? Vegetables. Broccoli, califlouwer, all that jazz. I must incorporate those into my diet.

Thanks again!

Some very suspect information (read: hogwash) in those links.

Could you please be my trainer and nutritionist? I have so much to learn! I feel like a noob now. I'd rep you a thousand times if I could; every day I'm here I learn something new... and I'm a freakin' medical student!

I would hope that as a medical student you would have a bit of skepticism when it comes to health "information" on the internet. I would hope that you would understand the scientific method, and thus take most of the above information with a grain of salt.

[WOLVERINE1000]

Hey if you think that information is bull****, do you have any good information? I'm trying to get more jacked, and I need to raise up my testosterone levels.

I read somewhere that saturated fats help raise testosterone levels - can anyone clarify?

yes

[Xanthippus]

Pumpkin seeds, oysters, liver.

[rawlife]

Maca root raises test levels very dramatically, I would say. You might consider it a supplement, but it's just a whole food ground into powder. Make sure to get organic and raw.

Exactly. That was meant for entertainment purposes to keep you occupied while having issues addressed by a professional.

I always do my research on any topic; I've never taken anyone's word for anything. And yes, I do realize that there is good and bad information on the internet, but I also realize that sources are indefinite, and that I can't make a generalization about every abstract or article I see, based on untruthful, inaccurate or biased information from a few sources, out of many.

Thanks for the concern though.
Have fun eating!

I am hoping, what I sense is a hint of sarcasm; and not agreement.
Please tell me I'm right...

[lednasmr]

eating adequate amounts of fats will allow you to maximize your natty hormone levels, but dont expect steroid-like results

[WOLVERINE1000]

I just looked at your avatar. Impressive. Mind if you tell me what your program is like.

[cell technical]

Monounsaturated and saturated fat (but not polyunsaturated or trans fat).

Also foods that are high in zinc (oysters, beef).
