@haidut Wouldn't you agree that white rice as a starch has a benefit to androgens if combined with a lean protein to boost leptin, libido, testosterone and DHT because it is insulinogenic? At least temporarily.
Also, I found 2 conflicting studies about lycopene.
This study says lycopene raises T: Europe PMC
This study says lycopene lowers T: https://faseb.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1096/fasebj.25.1_supplement.975.6
I know we're talking about DHT, but should we prioritize optimizing free T over DHT in the long run for it's preventative prostate cancer effects? Or should we avoid tomato sauce because it is not optimal all together?
