Benefits of ginger for men
Ginger is known as a male aphrodisiac because of its ability to stimulate testosterone production and increase libido. Regular use of rhizome extracts in the testes increases the amount of cholesterol, the main component from which Leydig cells synthesize testosterone molecules. At the same time, the weight of the gonads increases slightly. Initially, these properties were confirmed by experiments on rodents, and then men suffering from infertility participated in the research. After 3 months of regular intake of ginger extract, testosterone levels in the subjects increased by 18%, which led to an improvement in fertility parameters and sperm count.
Effect on sperm characteristics:
- Amount increased by 16%;
- Mobility - by 43%;
- Total number of samples without structural pathologies - by 18%;
- Vitality - 40%;
- The amount of semen increased by 36% in 3 months.
Ginger root is especially beneficial for overweight men. Excess fat is a source of female hormones and a factor in inhibiting testosterone synthesis.
Ginger helps you get shape thanks to the following properties:

To achieve the above effects, it is enough to eat 4 g of dried ginger, ground into powder, daily, distributing this amount for each meal (it can be added to food as a spice).
