Way 5: Optimize Vitamin D Levels
Vitamin D is a vital nutrient for overall health, and it also plays a significant role in testosterone production. Research has shown that men with sufficient vitamin D levels have higher testosterone levels compared to those with a deficiency.
To optimize your vitamin D levels, aim to get at least 10-15 minutes of direct sunlight exposure on your face and arms each day. However, depending on your location and the time of year, sunlight exposure alone may not be sufficient for maintaining optimal vitamin D levels. In this case, consider supplementing with a high-quality vitamin D3 supplement.
Additionally, consuming vitamin D-rich foods, such as fatty fish (salmon, mackerel, and sardines), fortified dairy products, and egg yolks, can help support healthy vitamin D levels. Be sure to discuss your vitamin D needs with a healthcare professional before starting any supplementation. (5)
