Hops
Sorry beer drinkers! German beer makers noticed long ago that girls working the hops fields developed early signs of puberty. Researchers later discovered that hops are a highly estrogenic food. A mere 3.5 ounces contains 30,0000 IU of estrogen's.
Grapefruit
Your liver filters excess estrogen out of your blood stream to be excreted out of your body. When you eat grapefruit this process is interrupted, which leads to higher estrogen levels.
Licorice
Licorice increases cortisol levels in the body. High cortisol causes a reduction in testosterone. Clinical studies have confirmed that licorice increases progesterone levels, and decreases serum test levels in men.
Cottonseed oil
Men who regularly eat raw cottonseed oil have low sperm counts. If the oil is eaten over long periods, the testis can stop producing sperm altogether.
Soy products
Soy is a highly estrogenic food.
I have a no tolerance rule with soy foods. I never, ever, eat them!
Dr. Kaayla T. Daniel a Certified Clinical Nutritionist with a Ph.D. in Nutritional Sciences has this to say about soy..
"Every soy product has phytoestrogensis which are linked to reduction in testosterone in men. It has been demonstrated in studies with rats, monkeys, and humans. For men, this reduction in testosterone leads to decreased libido, lower sperm count, and decreases in the ability to build muscle.
Alcohol
Alcohol in moderation is probably fine. Chronic binge, or heavy drinking will cause your testosterone levels to plummet. 5 drinks will reduce your T levels by a whopping 45%.
