Steak, eggs & macs for a hard and constant boner

[SuperDD Senior Member Find all posts View Profile Close SuperDD]

I got thinking about another thread about getting a boner without touching it & also about a news caster saying men seem to have lower testosterone compared to previous generation.

I personally believe it's from the diet that gets pushed, such as fairly high carbs & low protein & fat.

I eat a lot of protein & fat and stay hard constantly & I'm now in my 50's.

When I want to lose weight I simply eat less but I eat the same food, including fast food (KFC, McDonalds etc.)

At times I have been really slim. Right now definitely a little overweight do to a long slump I was in, but I've dropped 9 lbs in the last 4 weeks. My BP & other stats are all good & I'm not on any prescription meds.

Anyway, I'm not a nutritionist by any means but just putting my thoughts out there.

Old time body builders are a lot of meat & whole eggs before roids became so common and I have worked with guys who had freaky strength and they all ate that way also.

Steak and eggs are good, but macs are full of fats and carbohydrates which can constrict blood flow.

You may be on to something, or at least halfway there:

Zinc is one of the most important minerals for male sexual function. It is involved in every step of male reproduction, from the manufacturing of testosterone to the production of healthy sperm.
There are better sources, but steak is a good source of Zinc. On the other side, processed foods tend to be low in Zinc, so probably the modern diet that includes a great deal of processed foods leads to a Zinc deficiency and ultimately low T and bad erections.

While fats are good for your hormones, there's a huge difference between the unhealthy fats in McDonalds, which clog up your arteries compared to the healthier fats in lets say almonds nuts and eggs. the real reason more men suffer lower testosterone levels is because companies are putting too much crap in food that increases estrogen. Even healthy foods such as milk and meat now has increased level of hormones that lower testosterone. It's a joke.

It does taste good. If it tastes good, then the chances are it's no good for you lol. The big problem is that if you want to have the foods that are not as contaminated with crap, then you got to pay more money to get organic etc. All the organic food eventually just costs too much. I think a lot of people are aware of their health regarding food, it's just they can't afford to get a whole family shopping of organic food.

I remember in my thirties going into McDonald’s with the Mrs. I ordered 3 triple cheese burgers and a Super sized fry, turn to her and asked what she wanted? The young gal taking our order say, “ Jeez, that’s all for you?” The McD’s triple cheeseburger is the perfect mix of burger, grease, cheese and bun, if it had bacon it’d be awesome.

No, bodybuilders took just as much steroids like testosterone and dianabol back in the 50's and 60's as they do now.
