As I’ve commented on other vids, I like this channel because it’s always based on actual studies and you often include deeper biochemical interactions and mechanisms if they’re know. Please continue to do that and not “dumb” down the channel ever, in fact make it smarter. There are a million dumbed down supplement/health channels
hell yea joel . thats litterly why we love him because he bring up multiple scources / studys throught his vids . keep up the great work brother man @ Nutrition Library !!
Good information! Some of these are somewhat common (beef, eggs, fish). Would interesting to see your take on the more nuanced ones (oysters, Brazil nuts, pomegranates, etc)
I'm glad you mentioned raisins. Boron is hard to find in food. In addition to the list I add mushrooms, parsnips, garlic - perhaps intuitively but I'm convinced by my intuition.
I really appreciate how you make the distinction between diets and nutrition: Diets are short-term plans that should be cycled, while nutrition is your overall long-term health of what you put in your body over the span of your lifetime.
I went from 334 to 960 in around 3 months all natural no TRT. This book should be essential reading for all men. Written by a 50s guy with natural T levels of a 20s guy Complete guide to testosterone by james Francis
I quite enjoy your content! I never once thought you were undermining nutrition! Thank you for taking time out of your day to research and share some facts that most of us can benefit from!
Soak them overnight and roast them afterward to increase the zinc bioavailability. Constipation can also be the case if you overdo it, especially without drinking enough water
I put MCT oil in my boiled Distilled water, and take a teaspoon of organic Lion's Mane powder plus Spirulina, and Reishi, and Matcha powder, also Maitake mushroom powder. I have to add coconut sugar and some goat milk or cow milk.
your content is so good! I've watched so many of your vids! I love the level of detail, it clearly shows how dedicated you are to high quality content and information. I am actually a woman trying to improve my levels of testosterone a bit, I know it's not your main area of focus but have you even thought about making a video about testosterone and females? I would appreciate your point of view and wisdom! anyway, thank you for your dedication! keep it up!
Hey can you do a video on different supplement/vitamin companies and also which ones to trust and what to look out for? It’s sometimes tough to feel like your getting good products when they vary so much, and the you get horror stories like some supplements are found to have mercury or pharmaceuticals in them.
it would be great if you can make a video on behavioral technics and studies that follows, how to increase testosterone and hgh, like fasting, specific type of training, cold exposure, hot exposure, sex, masturbation...
Great video, you mentioned ashwagandi ... I want to take it but just started tomkat Ali... Can you take them together or should you cycle? Thanks in advance
why does a popular nutrition tracking web page like Cronometer say that 4 eggs contain only 25% of RDI of vitamin D? Unlike what you mentioned here, 120% of RDI
Great stuff! Mostly keto friendly foods too! Regarding the hormone panel tests, unfortunately I live in NY state, and they don’t allow home tests. I got a referral from my doctor and my insurance covers all of the ones I requested (total testosterone, estradiol, prolactin, cortisol, TSH + free T4.) next time I’ll ask for free testosterone, shbg and LH in addition to these. I’m gonna call on Monday to see if the results are in. I’m sure they’re going to need a lot of work, because I’ve got a ton of weight to lose (about 80 lbs of fat to get to my goal), I’ve got a lot of stress etc
Keto will give you a temporary boost in Test but be sure to reintroduce carbs once you get leaner or you will begin to feel badly and T levels will drop again. Fruit and honey are the way to go
Honey is good before a workout but I wouldn't use it before sex as it would temporarily lower the androgens needed for "performance." Although it does help to raise Nitric Oxide, the fructose lowers insulin which is needed for optimal arousal. You want that insulin in you during that time. Beef and rice, then wait 2 hours and you're good to go.
i eat 6 eggs every day 2x salmon a week 3x beef a week raisins 3-4 times a week need to put liver and honey to it but liver sounds horrible lol couple months back turned 30 and was curious what my test levels where did a blood test in the hospital and it was super high almost the limit in the range
The only way beef can be high in B-12 is if the animal eats grass not grains. The B-12 comes from the soil which gets into the plant which in turn gets into the cow then us. Research B-12.
There is a fresh and scrumptious Thai dish that uses ground meat and liver as the main ingredients, called "Laarb". Absolute best way to eat liver hans down.
NO Do not do that Need i remind you of a certain character mog something who when wet gets a bit nasty... all it took was putting water on the eggs can you imagine gremlins on steroids.. little shit heads would take half the city
The USDA website states that a 50g egg only has 41 IU vitamin D3. Wouldn't that mean that 4 eggs only equals like 40% RDI? How did you get 120%? (honest question)
it does to some degree. But it is unclear how sensitive cholesterol is to oxidation. If you want to play it safe, cook your eggs over easy and your beef minimally.
What a fantastic video. After watching it I am starting to question why I supplement at all 🤷 I eat all of the items on this list on a regular basis. Wouldn’t this mean that supplementing would be over kill? Apart from my creative and Ashwagandha. Won’t stop those hah! Any thoughts?
I eat two whole eggs before my workout and two egg whites after my workout. Should I consider eating whole eggs after workout as well or should I stick to this? I am just concerned about the high colestrol content in egg yolks, but I do a lot of cardio as well. Will that balance out the cholesterol I am consuming?
Carnivore for 2 years, no grains of any kind (the phytates in them have anti nutrients and bind to zinc, calcium ect). I don't consume sugar as well. Test level was 990ng/dl in march of 2021 and just had another test done a few days ago waiting on the results. I only supplement Vit C and omega 3 fish oil cause I don't eat alot of seafood.
My total test is mid 800s and I'm vegan and my LDL is 73. Free test is 12 pg/ml, which is not bad but my it's likely due to my higher than average shbg, which I should be able to lower with magnesium. The fact that he doesn't mention the health consequences with the foods he's reccoing is disappointing. He mentions iodine but doesn't bring up sea vegetables? Big fail on a nutrition front. Pretty disappointing video from a nutritionist
I quickly went through your video I'm not sure if you mentioned the important is to consume the better quality cleaner foods like grass-fed beef wild-cut fish and pasture eggs
I use a bunch. From my experience, most are pretty high quality. Vital protein, makes a good one is the only company that has tested their product for micronutrient content. Its the priciest though.
I love your content man. One question, while taking ashwagandha I definitely lift better and gain more muscle but my balls shrink noticeably. Should I continue taking it?
All research considered, Ash seams to have positive effects on pretty much all testicular function. I wouldn't be too worried, but discontinue if you don't feel comfortable.

I seen some else on here is using pine pollen I have tried everything it is the only thing that works ...I also use pine bark extract for circulation with it and a good vitamins...there is nothing over counter that does what it does...you need to cycle it
Question: I’m curious when you say fish, what all falls under this category. Could things like shrimp, crab, and lobster be considered or even mussels scallops and oysters? Might be a dumb question but would like to know!👍👍
Hey bro I was curious to I've been vegan for awhile but I'm curious to know what you think if using supplements is just as effective as eating animal products
I clicked on the link for the at home T test. It looks like this company offers total testosterone and not free as well. Is this correct? Can you comment on this?
eggs are better. APGC is good, but I don't think it is best longterm because of it intermediary nature in choline synthesis. Whole food versions are always best long term. Choline bitartrate isn't as potent as AGPC but it is better long term and can be used by the body for other purposes as well.
We’ve got a diabetes and heart disease epidemic (leading cause of death for men and women) and you’re suggesting to people that they should eat lots of saturated fat and cholesterol? You feeling ok?
Does consuming meat during your day provide enough EAAs for BCAAs to be effective? Doesn't nutrient timing come into play, due to the body not storing amino acids?
Nutrient timing mostly comes into play for athletes who are working out 1-2 times per day because they need to replenish in between workouts so that they don't burn out. For the average person who exercises 2-3 times per week nutrient timing does not matter much. As for meat it takes hours to be assimilated and broken down so your window of available amino acids is quite large
good question. I agree pretty much with the previous comment. Nutrient timing can make a difference, but not as much as one would think. The reason I don't like BCAAs and the like is because Whey protein can be used for the same person. it contains super high amounts of EAAs and is cheaper.
Was the nutritional info screenshot from a fortified egg product? Those nutrient percentages look way too high for just one egg compared to nutrition facts online.
This video was like my shopping list... I literally live on this stuff and I'm fortunate enough to enjoy liver too. Eat it for breakfast all the time 😋
@@vincentannunziata300 I used to chop into fairly small pieces and fry with onion but recently I've left it in bigger slices and cook it like a steak. Just don't over cook or it becomes tough
its just that. A correlation. No direct causation. Most of the blue zones that note low meat intake also have impeccable genetics, and they don't exercise. the more you exercise the more protein you need to support repair. that is the most important correlation to keep in mind.
@@NutritionLibrary thanks for the reply, have you watched the latest podcast from Dr. David Sinclair? He is going vegan recently, high protein diet inhibits m-Tor, sirtuins and ampk, which are main protective mechanism in longevity. So I am wondering what is the treshold here for building muscle and obtain longevity?
@@KAI5ERCHIEF High protein stimulates mTor ,too much of that hurts longevity, too little is also bad.I don't think the link from protein to longevity is fully understood yet, but I believe too much is quite bad in the long run.
I think you need to instead focus on the outcome studies instead of mechanistic data. There's a big difference between what should and what does happen.
Hello brother few days ago I tried ashwagandha,maca,tribulus,hornygoat,avena sativa,catuaba bark and stinging nettle root at once and it almost killed me like my blood pressure was 106 60 and I was having irregulat heartbeats. From what that can happen because before that i was taking maca ashwagandha tribulus and horny goat everyday safely. I mean can supplements like tongkat ali and cistance taken together can do harm for me should i visit medicine?
