Intermittent fasting boosts sexual behavior!
The researchers investigated the influence of intermittent fasting (IF) on aging-related physiological and behavioral alterations.
They show that intermittent fasting (IF) enhances sexual behavior in male mice by reducing serotonergic inhibition through lower brain tryptophan.
While IF does not improve endocrine function or sperm quality, it preserves reproductive success in aged mice, suggesting a dietary approach to counter age-related libido decline.
