A quick literary search suggests there is no evidence linking a vegan diet with a reduction in testosterone. In fact, most studies found an small but significant increase in testosterone with specifically vegan men.
A simple google search shows nothing that backs up your claim, odd that you would have made it.
I used words like "not proven to" and "probably" as reasons to express doubt, but yeah it looks like it was a recent controversy with men's health magazine and several studies going back about at least a decade disprove it citing a very clear inverse correlation with higher fat concentration in meats.
Odd that you would concentrate on the one claim OP himself says is a weak link, especially when the influence of veganism would be so much less than age and obesity. Odd that you wouldnt look into the connection of age/obesity and T-levels.
Nah it's cool it's good to question everything. Especially in this day in age where the fake is being manufactured faster than the real.
