Vitamin A & Zince = Increased testosterone levels?

[SonnyB]

Will a high intake of vitamin A & Zinc inrease my testosterone levels?

Only if deficient to begin with but otherwise no. MAybe dhea.

U sure? According to several articles I've red tomatoes, meat and oyster are recommended because they are known for increasing testo levels, even though the person already had a decent diet.

Both can reach toxic levels rather quickly, so along with food and a multi-vitamin, thats all you would need for any purpose. As far as increase of testosterone, very doubtful, there are too many variables in ones body that effect hormones that those two could possibly have a notable effect.
