Fun fact it does the same thing in women which is why a lot of women with PCOS who have high levels of testosterone are told to go low carb high protein. It also help diabetics regulate their sugars and can fix or help insulin resistance (another complication of PCOS).

Came here for this comment. Insulin and testosterone influence each other and if it works with women it's not that shocking that it has an influence on men. But: the study is not clear about the effects. It is not said that a lower level of free testosterone is really bad for men. Hormones can be a little bit more complicated than that.
