Smoothies For Testosterone and Male Enhancement

This smoothie will turn boys into men. This is my recipe for one of the best smoothies for testosterone and male enhancement.

Probably not, but it might put a few hairs on your chest. I can also guarantee you’ll feel like a new man, with much more energy and drive to get out into the world. The reason for these effects is the fantastic benefits of the ingredients that make up this recipe.

Smoothies For Testosterone and Male Enhancement

THIS IS THE ULTIMATE MAN SMOOTHIE (SERVES 1)

This is one of the most ultimate smoothies for testosterone and male enhancement that can boost and increase your testosterone levels, help with erectile dysfunction, help blood circulation and support your sexual desire.

2 bananas

Bananas are full of potassium and aid greatly in boosting recovery due to their high electrolyte content.

100g frozen berries

Get yourself a big bag of mixed frozen berries and you’ll be getting a huge dose of antioxidants, vitamin C and resveratol which are all fantastic for testosterone production and overall health. Not to mention they make the smoothie taste fantastic.

100g pomegranate seeds

Without a doubt my favourite addition to this smoothie. Pomegranate tastes amazing and are an extremely potent nitric oxide booster which boosts blood flow around the body. Great for meeting your performance goals.

2 tbsp pumpkin seeds

These are a fantastic source of iron and magnesium which are vital nutrients for overall health and vitality.

100g steamed beetroot

Beets are loaded with vitamins A & C and have a large amount of folic acid as well. They make the shake taste great as well.

100g watermelon

Watermelon is one of the densest sources of L-Citrulline which is great – just like pomegranates, for increasing blood flow. This nutrient will help you achieve improved vascularity as well if that’s something you’re into.

1 raw egg

Eggs are great. They’re full of protein and healthy saturates. Adding a raw one into this smoothie allows you to get these great benefits without even noticing it’s in there.

1 tbsp apple cider vinegar

This adds a nice flavour to the drink and has proven benefits when fighting off diabetes and improving blood sugar levels.

25g whey protein

Now for a final protein boost. Whey is one of the most easily absorbed forms of protein and putting a scoop into the smoothie makes it the ideal post workout shake.

Feel free to add additional ingredients as you wish - some people may decide to add peanut butter, almond milk and additions for extra health benefits.

OPTIONAL

The next 3 ingredients are optional but I believe they can add an extra boost to your sex drive, sexual performance and overall testosterone production.

1 tsp maca powder

Maca may not actually be the potent testosterone booster it was previously claimed as being. However, it is fantastic at balancing hormonal levels, boosting energy naturally and giving your libido a kick start.

1 tsp ashwaghanda

This adaptogenic herb has been shown to improve your sleep and significantly lower stress. It may also improve testosterone but results have mostly been observed in animals so far.

5g creatine

Creatine is one of the few clinically proven supplements that has been shown to increase muscle mass and add strength at a significant rate. Just 5g a day has been shown to improve these areas so I recommend loading up on this if you want to optimise your gains.

Amino Acids

Adding amino acid to your smoothie recipe (especially during a cut) can maximise your muscle building potential as well as boost your testosterone levels through the above ingredients.

COOKING

  1. Prepare yourself because the following steps may be hard to comprehend.

  2. Empty the ingredients into a blender.

  3. Press blend.

CONCLUSION - Smoothies For Male Enhancement

Ultimately, there is no single thing that is suddenly going to put your testosterone through the roof or give you the male enhancement you've been looking for... but don't worry, the above recipe has tested and proven ingredient to make a difference.

Hopefully those steps weren’t too difficult to follow. Jokes aside, this recipe is quick, easy and packs a serious punch in terms of nutrition. This will help you in your journey to adding mass to your frame and size to your balls. Below is the macro and micro breakdown.

Slow cooker stew recipe for boosting testosterone

Today I present to you the ultimate recipe for raising testosterone levels - the best god damn slow cooker stew you ever did see.

This recipe is incredibly tasty and easy to make. It contains less than 10 main ingredients plus spices so hopefully it won't blow your mind.

The recipe is as follows;

Slow cooker stew (serves 5)

1kg White Potatoes

Potatoes are a superior carbohydrate source than conventional man-made grains and provide a steady release of energy to fuel workouts. Not to mention their various testosterone boosting benefits.

500g Grass-fed red meat

Red meat is the go to protein source for those looking to increase testosterone as it contains many essential nutrients required to perfect one's endocrine system like Zinc, L-Carnitine, Iron & b12.

3 types of veg (I usually go for 400g mushrooms, 3 bell peppers and 3 carrots)

Veggies are chock-full of testosterone boosting nutrients like vitamins A, B & C along with magnesium, folic acid and potassium.

1 Tbsp of either Butter or Coconut Oil

Fat, especially saturated fat is crucial to optimal hormonal health. Cholesterol is a precursor to testosterone, meaning a lot of your staple foods should include some degree of this male-friendly nutrient. Just don't overdo your fat intake (Keep it around 30-40%) as you don't want cancer, hypertension or liver failure - do you.

Juice of a Lemon

Citrus fruits have been shown to be extremely testosterone friendly due to extremely high levels of vitamin C and rather high levels of Thiamine per serving.

4 cloves of Garlic

Garlic is an amazing T booster due to its high levels of quercetin. This gives garlic anti-inflammatory properties and is also a very potent nitric oxide booster.

1cm cube of Ginger

Studies have shown ginger to effectively raise serum testicular testosterone levels. It can also help to protect joints and lower bad cholesterol.

2 Tbsp of All spice

This adds flavour and as an added bonus, spices within allspice like cumin have been shown to have positive effects on testosterone - tasty.

Handful of Parsley

Due to its high levels of apigening, parsley can be classed as one of the best garnishes about when it comes to the big T.

250ml veg stock

Veg stock is used here to improve the taste and sauce of the entire meal. Veg stock is also very healthy due to its high concentration of vegetable nutrients like vitamins A, B & C and folic acid.

6 blended vine tomatoes

Tomatoes are actually a very healthy food which can aid in healthy hormonal function due to their high levels of vitamin A & B and fibre. By blending up natural loose tomatoes you avoid the BPA's in tinned tomatoes which is a huge bonus for optimising hormonal output.

Avocado (Optional)

These fat bombs are amazing for testosterone production. They contain lots of Vitamin E, which is great but they are also full of Saturated and Monounsaturated fats which have been correlated with higher testosterone production.

Cooking

  1. Chop up the potatoes, meat and your chosen veg - set aside.

  2. Finely chop the ginger, garlic and parsley - set aside.

  3. Boil 250ml water and stir in veg stock.

  4. Blend up your 6 vine tomatoes.

  5. Line your slow cooker with your chosen fat source.

  6. Make a base of flavour by placing in the all spice, ginger, garlic, lemon juice and parsley.

  7. Add in potatoes, meat and veg.

  8. Pour over the veg stock and blended tomatoes.

  9. Set your slow cooker to cook for 8 hours on a low heat.

  10. If you would like to bump up the fat and calorie content of this dish then add an avocado in.

Conclusion

As you can see, there's a bit of wiggle room for ingredients so you can change the tastes to your liking and keep it fresh so you don't get bored.By using the slow cooker you tenderise the meat and let all the flavours really come through - not to mention the fact that you can just throw everything in there and let it cook for 8 hours with no effort at all.Below is the macro-nutrient breakdown for a serving of slow cooker stew - feel free to play about with the amount of servings you break it in to.
