In today’s episode, Lucas shares his knowledge on the role of testosterone for both men and women, addressing common questions and misconceptions. Here are three key takeaways from our conversation that you won't want to miss:

Testosterone is often seen as just a muscle-building hormone, but Lucas debunks this myth. It’s crucial for mood, motivation, cognition, energy, and overall well-being in both men and women—affecting much more than just gym gains!

Lucas shares surprising factors that lower testosterone, like obesity, BPA, plastics, and even polyester underwear. He also recommends applying an ice pack to the testes to boost testosterone by keeping them cool—small changes with big impacts!

To boost testosterone naturally, Lucas recommends a nutrient-rich diet with magnesium, zinc, and boron, along with herbs like Tonka-Ali, Shilajit, and Pine Pollen. He also emphasizes weightlifting and HIIT, while advising against long-duration activities like marathon running, which can lower testosterone.
