Title: Higher testosterone levels linked to men who enjoy spicy food Written by: duddy on Jan 19, 2015 (https://biology-forums.com/gallery/47/4_19_01_15_7_49_06.jpeg) (https://biology-forums.com/index.php?action=gallery;sa=view;id=20171) According to a recent study conducted by researchers at the University of Grenoble in France, the results published were plain and simple - men who enjoyed dipping their food into hot, spicy sauce happened to have higher levels of free testosterone floating around their bloodstream after the meal. Salt preference, however, didn’t seem to have any link to testosterone levels. What does this correlation entail? Does capsaicin - the chemical responsible for spiciness - increase testosterone, or are those who are more likely to take risks possess higher levels of this potent male hormone?
