dan_iv 0 #26 March 18, 2005 I also wanted to back up what masterrig said... here is a tidbit of info about soy for you.... Soy lowers Testosterone levels! Just about all soy products on the market contain the phytoestrogens (plant estrogens) known as isoflavones. Plant estrogens have lowered Testosterone levels in rats, monkeys, and other animals as well as humans. For grown men, this usually leads to decreased libido and lower sperm count. There’s an old wives tale that Japanese women punish their straying husbands by feeding them a lot of tofu! origin article -> here Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hipwrddude 0 #33 March 19, 2005 Dan, thanks for the link. Now I'm starting to rethink my love of soy milk, soy protein bars, etc. After the article, I did some searches that are making me wonder. And, of course, if it messes with the testosterone levels, out it goes! Thanks. You're always the starter in your own life! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blackdog 0 #34 March 19, 2005 QuoteThanks for the Forbes article. I've read an awful lot about this subject, so instead of 2 cents here's eleventeen cents. All of the foods cited by the writer of the article actually have not been shown to have any efficacy in treating sexual desire disorders. They're simply elaborating on the popular myths. Consuming them thinking it will support one's sexual appetite will result more in a psycho-somatic effect then a physical one. The ingredients to maintaining a sexual appetite vary slightly from person to person, but a baseline would be this: sufficient sleep, exercise (preferably some aerobic and some strength training which increases the production of growth horneymones,) and a good diet containing a healthy supply and ratio of Omega-6 fatty acids to Omega-3 fatty acids (fish oil, flaxseed oil) [between 2:1 to 4:1 is ideal--the average American diet is 20:1]. In men, supplementation of the amino acid Arginine stimulates Nitric Oxide production which helps make a woody. In the ladies, the adrenal hormone DHEA has been shown help postmenopausal women feel amorous. Both are over-the-counter (and through the woods, he, he, he.) Anyway, the biggest producer of sex hormones in the body results from the act itself (unless of course, you're faking.) So, when you get down to it, that's actually the best diet of all. And, if you're a member of Sex Without Partners, don't hurt yourself. To answer the question, "Are you a super lover?" Why, of course (who would say anything less?) A man asks his wife, "Hey, how 'bout some super sex!" She turns to him and says, "Soup." yes it seemed they were just stroking the drug companies; it is Forbes after all. And tofu is horrible for you.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
