“Low testosterone, hypogonadism or “low T” is a very common health condition faced by men in their late 30s, 40s and later. Its effects are easily noticed by those men who are otherwise healthy but suddenly start facing low sex drive, low stamina, fatigue and weight gain. However, contrary to common belief, aging is not the only reason behind low testosterone. There are various other reasons that restrict the body from producing this male hormone which is responsible for all male functionalities in the body.

Let’s take a look at some of the most common causes of Low T other than aging

Sleep Deprivation: A good night’s sleep is highly important for increasing testosterone levels in the body. If you sleep less than 7-8 hours a day, then suffering from low testosterone almost inevitable for you. In fact, the effect of sleep deprivation can be noticed in 5 -7 days of less sleep than normally recommended 8 hours’ sleep in 24 hours.
Obesity: Being overweight or obese is one of the most common reasons that trigger diabetes which in turn causes low T in a majority of cases. Until a few decades back, diabetes or even prediabetes was very uncommon among people below 40 years of age. With rapidly changing lifestyles and eating habits, high sugar level has become very common among younger people which results in low testosterone and a host of other ailments. So start losing weight not just for maintaining your male hormone’s levels but for overall health.
Deficiency of Zinc and Copper: Not many are aware that seafood, red meat and poultry products contain a lot of nutrients such as copper and zinc that are essential for good testosterone levels. Deficiency of zinc is one of the major causes of low T. Many researchers have confirmed the correlation of zinc and T levels in the body. There are various vegetarian options that are equally good for boosting testosterone production in the body. Mainly beans, nuts and whole grains are the main sources of zinc and other nutrients that product testosterone.

Last but not the least, high sugar levels also cause low T in addition to triggering many other ailments. If you take regular exercise, you are on the safer side as far as T levels are concerned. However, extreme amount of endurance exercise may result in lowering testosterone levels. Simply brisk walking for 20-30 minute, aerobics or yoga for half an hour every day is sufficient for a majority of people to maintain the required testosterone levels. Though there are several supplements available on the market, going for natural remedies is always better than pharmaceutical products.
