5. Increase in Testosterone Production
Men who are living with the effects of low-testosterone, notice a marked reduction in energy and strength levels, along with less drive and ambition in life. Testosterone, also known as the male hormone, is a vital hormone for healthy young men.
However, those individuals living with low testosterone may experience weight gain that they can’t get rid of with exercise, as well as a noticeable reduction in muscle mass and feelings of aggression or certainty. Living with low “T” is a nightmare for most men, and they may have trouble balancing their emotions as well. When testosterone dips, it causes the elevation in the blood serum levels of the female hormone – estrogen. As a result, the affected individual may notice they have uncontrollable emotional outbursts and may have trouble keeping their emotions under control.
Fortunately, studies show that taking ashwagandha powder increases testosterone serum levels in otherwise healthy young men with low testosterone output.
