Study finds link to dietsLow testosterone is often blamed for problems such as low libido, low energy, reduced bone mineral density and increased body fat. Having a low-fat diet can help men suffering from testosterone deficiency to boost their levels and avoid these health problems. This discovery was published in the Journal of Urology. “We found out that men who adhere to a fat restrictive diet have lower serum testosterone than men on a non-restrictive diet,” said Dr Jade Fantus who led the team of researchers from the University of Chicago Medicine and Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine. The study also noted that apart from low fat diets, losing weight is also a significant contributor to increased levels of testosterone.
