How Low Testosterone Levels Destroys Your Health & Kills Your Sex Drive

By: Micha K.

Low testosterone levels...Just the thought of that phrase escalates the stress level in a good percentage of the male population. An estimated 13 million men in the United States alone suffer from this problem. When we hear the words low testosterone levels, often we think about a damaged male ego, emotional insecurity, and a reduced ability to perform sexually. All true statements. Unfortunately, the range of problems that coincide with reduced testosterone run much deeper than the male psyche. Let's take an honest look at what kind of havoc this problem wreaks on the entire male system. Back in 2007 Dr. Elizabeth Barrett-Connor, of The University of California, concluded a groundbreaking study. Over 700 men living in California, with ages ranging from 50-91 years, were tracked. At the beginning of the study their testosterone level was measured and documented. The men's health was then tracked over the next two decades. The results were alarming. It was determine that men with low testosterone had a 33 percent greater risk of death than those whose testosterone measured as normal or high. Why is this? How Low Testosterone Destroys Your Health A number of things happen as testosterone levels drop in the male body. Here is a list of just some of the conditions that are directly related to low testosterone levels: As levels drop, the body has an automatic tendency to store fat, which of course results in weight gain Of course, with weight gain comes a myriad of potential problems, including high cholesterol and cardiovascular disease The threat of diabetes can also become a problem Increased irritability and depression almost always goes hand-in-hand with low testosterone Fatigue and loss of motivation Reduced muscle mass and strength Inability to concentrate The list goes on, but these are the most common health related issues that come with low testosterone. The Added Bonus of Low Sex Drive Low sex drive or libido in men is a common symptom of low testosterone. Of course, you probably don't need anyone to inform you of that. You are experiencing it, and very much aware. Testosterone level production is the result of a cycle that includes the brain's testosterone stimulating nerves, the release of nitric oxide which relaxes the muscles of the penis, and blood flow that surges to the penis resulting in an erection. How to Get Your Groove Back Of course you want the whole package (no pun intended). You want optimum health, to be physically fit, alert, mentally sharp, AND you want your sex drive back. It is within your reach. Natural supplements that aid in this cycle of testosterone production are really your only safe answer. A common sense, all natural approach is the safest and most effective way to bring you back to that place of health that you thought may have faded away forever.
