Alpha-GPC Potentiates Growth Hormone
Alphagpc - SupplementNews.org:
"Alpha-GPC has been used over the past decade to enhance cognition and memory. The dietary supplementation of Alpha GPC has been studied as an alternative treatment in various age-related conditions, including dementia, and cerebrovascular and Alzheimer's disease. Its mechanism of action is by the potentiation of growth hormone from the hypothalamus. It is thought to be particularly useful for elderly individuals, as they exhibit lower secretions of growth hormone with age. It may also be beneficial for individuals who wish to increase muscle mass via increased secretion of growth hormone"
L-Alpha Glycerylphosphorylcholine (Alpha GPC, choline alfoscerate) is a natural choline compound.
Food source (100 g) Amount of Choline (mg)
Eggs 251
Wheat Germ 152
Bacon 125
Dried Soybeans 116

Vitamin A May Boost The Levels Of Testosterone
Vitamin A:The Forgotten Bodybuilding Nutrient:
Vitamin-A is essential to muscle-building. It is necessary for the utilization of protein and the production of testosterone and other growth factors.
"...one human study, discussed below, found the administration of vitamin A and iron to have results equivalent to the administration of testosterone itself."
Natural vitamin-A can be found in foods such as liver and food-based supplements such as cod liver oil.

Beets
Men's Health Lists: Beets:
Beets are one the best sources of folate and betaine. These nutrients work together to lower blood levels of homocysteine. A high level of blood serum homocysteine can damage your arteries and increase your risk of heart disease. The natural pigments, betacyanins that give beets their color have been shown to have potent anti-cancer properties in studies of laboratory mice.

Cabbage
Men's Health Lists : Cabbage:
Cabbage
Why It's Healthy? Cabbage is low in calories, and still has a lot of valuable nutrients. Maybe most interesting is sulforaphane, a chemical that exhibits anticancer, antidiabetic, and antimicrobial properties. Sulforaphane increases your body's production of enzymes that disarm cell-damaging free radicals. According to Stanford University scientists sulforaphane boosts the levels of these cancer-fighting enzymes higher than any other plant chemical.
