Onion juice triples testosterone levels
Think of a dirt-cheap vegetable you can buy at every greengrocers and supermarket. Put it in a juicer, give the juice to rats for three weeks, and watch their testosterone level rise by 314 percent. According to research done at Tabriz University in Iran, fresh onion juice raises testosterone levels as much as substances like nolvadex or clomid.
In Iran many men who have fertility problems can’t afford to buy medicine. That’s why Iranian researchers are looking for alternatives to medicines like NAC and selenium. Studies show that antioxidants can increase production of testosterone and sperm in the testes. Studies have also shown that onions contain strong antioxidants. So the researchers put two and two together and bought ordinary onions – Latin name Allium cepa – on the market. They peeled the onions and put them in a domestic juicer made by Tefal. The juice they got is what they used in their trials.
Their subjects were a group of 8-week-old male rats. Of these, 10 were given ordinary food for 20 days. [Control] Ten other rats got 0.5 g per kg bodyweight of onion juice, which was pumped into their stomachs using a tube. Another 10 rats were given the same treatment, but got 1 g/kg bodyweight/day.

triples??!!!!! I highly doubt that,
edit- I'm actually getting blood work done in prob 2-3 weeks, I'll start doing this and see if it makes a difference. My last test I had done was awful, my test level came back at 305 and I'm 21. I have been depressed about it ever since, so I'm going to give this a try.
So I should take in 0.5g of juice per pound of my BW, so 100g of onion juice, and why is the measurement in grams and not milliliters? It is liquid..Last edited by dopamine72; 04-16-2010 at 06:12 PM.

Could try olive oil as well, i been using it daily for 2x months and found balls have gotten bigger. 2-3 weeks might not be long enough though. Must be the polyphenols, both high in olive oil and onion juice.
Olive oil converts cholesterol more easily into testosterone
The more fat you eat, the more testosterone your body produces. More fat, more testosterone. The best source of testosterone boosting fat, Argentinean researchers concluded a year ago after a study on rats, is olive oil. The same researchers have now published the results of another animal study in Lipids,
which shows how olive oil increases the production of testosterone. Olive oil helps the testes to absorb more cholesterol.

Best bet is to use pure onions, get the juice into a dropper and drop it directly into your eyes. 100% uptake. Doubles the triple test increase, so 6x more test! GET ON THAT BUDDY!

I tried eating an onion raw after seeing the study.
Never again... I've taken every powder known to man with nothing more than water, and this was by far the worst thing I've tried.

Ok one gram=one milliliter, and Onion juice is pretty expensive. Luckily I got a juicer! Will be trying this because I am desperate to raise my test level, will drink 100 ml a day. I'll get my blood work done in a month now, and we'll see if it makes a difference, I'm really skeptical, but fuk it.

yeah 100 ml is not that much but the juice is so damn potent so I don't know how the hell I'm going to get it down, I'll give it a try tomorrow and see how it goes. I'll ask people around me if I smell too, because I would not want to smell like that every day.
In my previous post I stated that I recently got my test level checked and it was pretty low.Journal: https://forum.bodybuilding.com/showthread.php?t=139898123&page=240

if you're going by the .5g/kg of bodyweight (not lb) you're going to only need 50ml.
if you're going by the rats that got 1g/kg then yeah, 100ml

Just tried it, the juicing process of a single onion stunk up my whole house including the second story. I was able to get just over 100 ML from a single onion. I poured myself out 45 ml which looks like a little more than an average shot of hard liquor, I then split it up into 2 separate shots. The taste wasn't as bad as I thought it would be, not nearly as bad as whiskey, its got a bad after taste though. I just used water to chase it with, which worked fine. I was expecting a stomach ache, but so far I feel fine and am drinking my Methyl Mass before I go lift. I have Awful breath right now so I'm going to clean out my mouth after I finish my pre workout drink. I'll update later to tell you guys if my sweat smelled like onions during my workout. Here are some pics of the juice.

Does't really look that bad in pictures, hah.
Are you going to juice a bunch at once? Or just go one at a time?

Yeah its really not as bad as I thought, if you can take shots of liquor then you can take shots of this. I will for sure make a large batch at once, I'm guessing this stuff lasts in the fridge for a while. If everything goes well today and tomorrow regarding the smell side effects(sweat and breath), I'll make more.

this is a horrible idea. your breath/sweat are going to smell terrible. after doing it for a while, you won't notice the smell anymore but I can guarantee you others will.
