I do a lot of cooking in my house thus I like to experiment as much as my family will allow. One thing I've always tried to incorporate no matter what I'm making is garlic. Personally I love the flavors and the richness it can bring to a dish more than anything else.
Out of curiosity I've been doing a lot of reading about garlic lately and the health benefits of this Allium plant (Close relatives being the onion and shallot).
There was a study done with rats and the scientists found that if the rats were fed garlic and a high-protein diet this would cause an uptake in testosterone levels.
I'm also a meditation enthusiast and its common knowledge amongst Buddhist monks that you shoulden't consume garlic at all as it increases your sexual desires. This making sense?
More research needs to be done on the correlation but let's get real. Garlic has longggg been recognised as a plant with great medicinal properties and I highly doubt that you will disdain including it in your diet. I recommend cooking with it and eating it raw to get the best benefit.
Basically all you need is a couple big bags of raw garlic bulbs and you are good to go. If you can grow it yourself that is even better but even a jar of minced garlic consumed in high qualities will create a benefit to you.
The only thing I might add is to make sure that you do not have a garlic allergy as there are some toxicity risks to garlic and you need to be careful about rubbing it on your skin as this may cause minor burns if you have sensitive skin. If you are on blood thinners forget it! Garlic is known to thin the blood.
I don't think you really need to do anything crazy. Just throw in 3 or 4 cloves (or bulbs) here and there, preferably raw, and let me know if you notice any differences in the increase of your gains.
One last note. If you are worried about bad breath, drink milk while you consume garlic as this will help neutralise the notorious halitosis effect.
Cheers and good gar-licking!
