T-Boosting Protocol: the 1st level
Today, we delve into a pressing concern for those over 40—the decline in testosterone levels. As we age, our testosterone levels tend to plummet, with each passing year showing a disheartening trend. Scientific studies, exemplified by Travison et al. (2007), reveal that the average 20-year-old male today has less testosterone than his counterpart from the previous year, perpetuating a decline in the male population's testosterone levels. This trend raises questions about masculinity in our modern world. As a recognized Men's Lifestyle and Fitness Coach, awarded "Best Men's Lifestyle and Fitness Coach 2023" for my innovation and skills by Global Health & Pharma, I take this matter to heart. Today, I'll share the first level of my TESTOSTERONE BOOSTING PROTOCOL—an evidence-based approach to naturally boosting testosterone levels and regaining masculinity.
