      Hello, I am a 33 years old male. I have low testosterone levels. I heard that zinc supplements might help in increasing my testosterone levels. Can zinc supplements increase testosterone levels in males? Should I take it?

        @sunny-0 Hello, Testosterone levels naturally decrease as you age. Zinc is an essential dietary mineral. You need zinc for your immune system to function properly and for cell division. Zinc helps enzymes break down food and other nutrients. It also plays an important role in enzymes that build proteins. It can be found in certain foods, but it’s also available in supplements and even certain cold medications. Having a zinc deficiency can lead to low testosterone. Exactly why a lack of zinc impacts testosterone levels isn’t fully understood. The mineral may affect the cells in the testes that produce testosterone. Yes, zinc supplements will help you but take it on the doctor’s prescription.
