Who would have
guessed that cutting out one of the three important macronutrients might cause
problems in the human body?
A lot of people,
actually.
Study after study
have demonstrated that carbohydrates are the most important macronutrient in
your body’s production of hormones in general.
More specifically,
research into its importance to testosterone production has been conclusive.
In 1997, a
Pennsylvania study among weightlifters found that high-protein, low-carb diets
led directly to reduced testosterone production.
More, they found
the further protein and carbs were out of balance, the greater the reduction of
testosterone.
Ten years earlier,
a study of men who didn’t exercise found the same relationship: fewer carbs
eaten meant less testosterone produced.
More recently, a
North Carolina study in 2010 had two groups of men exercise regularly.
One was fed a diet
consisting of 30% carbs, the other fed a diet of 60% carbohydrates.
The group with the
higher carbohydrate content in their diets saw a corresponding increase in
serum testosterone.
I know…
You’d have thought
eating lots of red meat — preferably rare — would have boosted testosterone no
matter how few scones you snarfed down.
But no…
Your body needs
carbs to make hormones, and that includes the hormones responsible for getting
and keeping yourself hard.
