Article title specifically says Type 2. I’m Type 1, eat a lot of almonds, and it hasn’t helped my depression!
There are compounds in almonds that bind to testosterone, and that would sure do it. But also get all of the Maslow's hierarchy of needs sorted-out to reduce resting BP, LDL, triglycerides:
- Lose weight
- Eat better - eat what bodybuilders do, but in SMALLER quantities - more lean/simple protein, more vegetables, less simple carbs, better fats - more water before meals
- Workout almost like a goddamn gym rat (cardio, strength, flexibility, yoga)
- Sleep hygiene - get outside more, remove screens/TV/mobiles from all bedrooms, exercise in the morning, strict bed time
- Have more sex
