The Ibadan University's College of
Medicine, located in Nigeria, conducted a study in 2002 regarding how ginger
effected rats. During the eight days of testing, all rats were fed water
droplets mixed with ginger in order to see what effect ginger would have on
their testosterone levels. The findings showed the weight of the rat's testes
as well as the levels of testosterone had increased. This fascinating study
demonstrates that testosterone secretions may be elevated upon the consumption
of ginger, which is key when it comes to a man's sex drive as testosterone is
the controlling factor.
