The reason for exercise and the reason for caloric restriction in general

including intermittent fasting, is health reasons.

That's how you increase your health span.

It's not necessarily going to make the weight on the scale change, but that doesn't matter as much.

So the easy way to think about it is if you're obese or you have metabolic syndrome, caloric restriction will improve your testosterone.

There has been a study, and they talk about all these studies in a systematic review from the Mayo Clinic Proceedings.

They note that there is a study in young, healthy men, and they chlorically restrict them, and their testosterone does decrease.

So if you're young and healthy and you don't have metabolic syndrome, then chloric restriction will likely decrease your testosterone.

So if they're in a caloric maintenance, then it's not going to be

It's not gonna be deleterious.

It's not gonna be bad for their hormone health.

There's a couple of different hormones that we can talk about.

We can talk about testosterone.

We can talk about DHEA, which usually go hand in hand.

And then we can also talk about growth hormone, which is not a steroid hormone, but it's a peptide hormone.

So it's a chain of proteins, amino acids that are put together instead of a sterol.

Think of sterol hormones as coming from cholesterol.

So you do get a little spike in growth hormone after you eat.

but you also get a huge spike in growth hormone, a more significant, less negligible spike overnight.
