Vegan men have higher serum and free testosterone than meat eaters.

The summary of the article reads:

Vegans had higher testosterone levels than vegetarians and meat-eaters…

However, the article summary sentence also continues:

…,but this was offset by higher sex hormone bniding globulin, AND THERE WERE NO DIFFERENCES BETWEEN DIET GROUPS IN FREE TESTOSTERONE, ANDROSTANDEDIO GLUCURIDE OR LUTEINIZING HORMONE.

Vegans also have an increased risk of certain nutritional deficiencies. There are essential nutrients only gathered from eating meat and animal products. These nutrients include vitamins B-12 and D, calcium, and long chain n-3 fatty acids like omega-3.
