0:00.0	Welcome to the Dr. Berg's healthy keto and intermittent fasting podcast where Dr. Berg
0:08.0	takes you on the journey for the truth about getting healthy and losing healthy weight.
0:21.4	You know, I've done a lot of videos in testosterone and I've emphasized a lot of things that
0:26.0	can lower your testosterone. But in some recent research that I've been diving into, sleep is
0:33.2	a huge under emphasized factor in your testosterone levels. I'm going to talk about that today. Now,
0:40.6	before I get into the subject of sleep, I'm going to just touch on some of the other things that
0:45.3	can dramatically lower your testosterone as well, because you need to know all of them,
0:50.2	because what may affect one person may not affect everyone. Okay. So the first thing you
0:56.2	to know is that as you age, testosterone does go down. However, it's not the major reason why
1:02.8	someone has low testosterone. So let's first talk about obesity. If you are overweight, that can

1:42.0	estrogen too, consuming a lot of soy products. Okay. That's one thing. Also, plastics, I've done a
1:48.3	video on this and an average person consumes about a credit card amount of plastic every single week.
1:55.8	That's a lot of plastic to be put in our bodies. So, you know, we get plastic from drinking out of
2:00.4	plastic bottles, cooking in plastic. Plastic is this all over the place and that can increase our
2:06.6	estrogen as well. Now, the other big killer of testosterone is having high insulin levels.
2:12.4	Now, you might think that you have to be a diabetic to have high insulin levels, but that's not true.
2:17.8	You could be a prediabetic or you can have insulin resistance, which I think the majority of
