The good news is that you get an ‘A’ for effort, and I am super proud of you for trying to be healthier. The bad news is that a lot of the things you think are good for you actually are horrible for your health.
These ultimately will ruin your health big time
- How you drink water — congrats for drinking a gallon a day, but make sure you’re not drinking out of a plastic bottle, which can lower your testosterone levels. Use glass or metal instead.
- NoFap — if you’re not releasing the hounds at least 21 times a month, you have a 50% increased risk of prostate cancer.
- Too much time in front of the screen — whether your computer, phone, or TV, the Journal of American College of Cardiology says more than 4-hours a day increases your risk of heart attack by 113%. Reduce to 2-hours a day and add 1.4 years to your life.
- What diet you follow — any type of extreme diet is not good for you. You need a balanced diet with all of the fats, carbs, proteins, and micro-nutrients. 70% of men don’t get enough Vitamin E; whereas 97% of men don’t get enough Vitamin D.

- Being too lean — you need a certain amount of body fat for hormones to function properly. Energy levels can be low too.
- Getting too much sleep — if you’re getting more than 8-hours of sleep, you can increase your risk of heart attack. More than 9-hours of sleep increases your risk of developing heart disease by 41%.
- Sitting too long — if you sit for less than 3-hours a day, you will increase your lifespan by 2 years.
- Taking TRT — people may say it’s healthy and good for you, but if you don’t need it, your body won’t work as hard to maintain proper balance.
