    I wanted to know what are the foods which we can benefit from during the NoFap journey?
    Any foods that may be harmful or arouse us doing the same.

    I found out that milk arouses me somehow. I don't know much about why but somehow it does. Please share the foods which are beneficial or not during this journey.

  2. There are a lot of studies on dairy and testosterone, but most of them are inconclusive and need further research. A few studies concluded that a cow’s milk during pregnancy has high levels of estrogen which lower testosterone. Then a few other studies contradicted them by claiming that the estrogen is of low bioavailability and has little effect on humans. And a decent amount of studies concluded that dairy, testicular cancer, and prostate cancer are associated. Then it got real interesting, a study concluded that low fat dairy intake resulted in significantly higher sperm concentration and sperm mobility.

    My conclusion here on dairy and testosterone, factoring in all the studies with different results, is that low fat dairy is decent and high fat dairy isn’t good for testosterone. This is the first time I ever say high fat isn’t good for testosterone. It usually is, but in this case dairy fat is loaded with estrogen, counteracting the testosterone increase from saturated fats. So low fat dairy leaves you with vitamin D, calcium, and some protein. All that is pretty good for testosterone but not enough to make it a food I’ll be eating much of.

    I’ve found that nearly everything sweet and sugary somehow reminds my brain about my addiction and really increases my chances of relapsing (mostly when I’m by myself). There probably is science that backs this up, but I am basing this on my experience. The decision to eat a sweet food is a test of your self-discipline. To me, it is very similar to the decision to masturbate. Both are a test of your ability to resist temptation, although choosing a sweet food is definitely much easier to resist than masturbating. My point is that, since sweet, sugary foods resemble porn (both being sources of pleasure and dopamine), the first can lead directly to the second.
