That's why over all diet is important. -------------- Patience, persistence and perspiration make an unbeatable combination for success. Ivan (GO HABS GO!) Montreal Canada (City of Festivals)

The one's I can think of off hand are onions, garlic, fish, and spinach... I remember reading an article about those helping maintain healthy test levels. but again, i don't know how much research is behind that. -------------- All American EFX \\"Natural Freak\\" http://www.aaefx.com AAEFX Sponsored Natural Bodybuilder

Short of testosterone therapy realistically, despite all the 'commercials' to the contrary, there really is not much out there. This is not to say that it is useless to try obviously, as natural methods will at the very least 'slow' the natural progression. Eat a sensible diet, exercise, reduce bodyfat, is about all the 'natural' things you can do. -------------- Baseball is the only field of endeavor where a man can succeed three times out of ten and be considered a good performer
