E31 - Low libido? Low mood? Poor strength? Get your testosterone levels checked
Listen now
Description
In this this episode, I share my own blood test results, of which are now a yearly ritual at my local GP surgery. It's imperative men over the age of 40 get their blood tests checked out yearly to both pre-empt and respond to low testosterone readings. With the advent of men's unhealthy lifestyles, ranging from sedentary professions and zero physical exercise, to poor nutrition and media distractions, we are now witnessing an epidemic of low levels of the male sex hormone. This physiological symptom will play havoc with men's physical, mental and in some cases emotional resilience, culminating in poor decisions at work, rest and play. Blood tests are quick, simple and effective in understanding why we are slow to rise in the morning, mentally foggy at work and emotionally unbalanced in relationships. If you are over the age of 40, you should ideally aim for approximately 600 ng/dl (600 nanograms per deciliter), of which can be improved on with quality sleep, nutrition and resistance training.
