🦍High Zinc Foods To Increase Testosterone: Beef vs Chicken
Most people don’t eat enough zinc to maximize Testosterone production, muscle mass, recovery, libido, strength, and so much more.
Zinc is CRUCIAL for male performance and health, yet natural food sources of zinc are very hard to come by.
As someone who has analyzed thousands of foods over the years, I’ll be the first to tell you that eating a zinc-rich diet consistently is no easy feat. But it’s definitely doable if you choose the right food sources when grocery shopping.
Eating a high zinc diet will not only boost your Testosterone levels, but also your libido, immune health, strength, recovery from training, cognition, and so much more.
Which brings us to the question:
Which of these 2 popular Foods has the most Testosterone Boosting ZINC?
A) Chicken breast
B) Beef
C) Both are equal in zinc
D) None of them contain zinc
Take your time to think this through, and don’t cheat.
If you answered Beef, you are correct.
The RDA for zinc is 11 mg per day for men (PMID: 16632171).
Unfortunately, most men need significantly more than this, with some needing up to 50-100 mg a day due to our high phytate diets (PMID: 19022958).
Beef, depending on the cut, can have anywhere from 6 to 12 mg of Zinc per 100 grams (or 3.5 ounces). (Source: USDA)
Chicken breast on the other hand, has only around 1 mg of Zinc per 100 grams (Source: USDA)
Beef therefore has up to 12 times more zinc than chicken breast, on a pound for pound basis.
So in short, stop wasting your money on chicken breast. Contrary to what most roided up bodybuilders and influencers (who don’t need to produce Testosterone endogenously) tell you, it is an inferior protein source for male performance and health.
Get the majority of your protein from red meat and other nutrient-dense sources instead.
