How to Increase Testosterone Naturally: Myths, Labs & Proven Strategies | Dr. Geo Espinosa

Want to Know How to Increase Testosterone Naturally? You’re in the Right Place! Testosterone isn’t just the male hormone—it’s essential for energy, focus, libido, muscle growth, and overall vitality. But here’s the problem: men’s testosterone levels are plummeting at an alarming rate. Even more shocking? Young men today have lower testosterone than their grandfathers did at the same age. If you or a man in your life struggles with low energy, brain fog, or a dip in drive, this episode is a must-listen. I’m joined by Dr. Geo Espinosa, a leading expert in men’s health, to break down the truth about testosterone—what actually affects it, what labs your doctor isn’t ordering, and how to optimize it naturally. We also dive into the role of estrogen in men, the biggest mistakes men make when trying to increase their testosterone, and the best foods and supplements for testosterone support.
