For the stronger sex, their masculine potency is very important. The slightest doubt about their sexual solvency takes them out of the routine, although outwardly they do not show it. Sexual function depends on many reasons: lifestyle, state of health, proper nutrition, etc.
Male libido and health
The health of a man is inextricably linked to his sexual function. If a representative of the stronger sex is healthy, his organs function normally and male potency is at a high level. And when health problems start, in most cases this is reflected in potency.
According to studies, representatives of the stronger sex who have a regular sexual life with a partner live longer than those who frequently change relationships and do not avoid casual relationships. For full-blown sex, not only physical pleasure is important, but moral satisfaction as well. In this case, not only the bodily sphere is involved, but also the spiritual and emotional. Their combination affects the whole personality and gives an intimate relationship a special depth.
According to some experts, it is especially important to have regular sex after forty years. If at this age there are long breaks, male potency may decrease. Here, as in any physically active action, constant "training" is needed, otherwise the function of the organ may begin to fade and degrade. At the age of twenty, breaks do not play a decisive role, and after the age of forty they can lead to the development of impotence. Regular sexual intercourse improves the function of an important organ: the prostate. Therefore, they can be considered a prophylaxis against the appearance of prostatitis.
There is also an opinion, which is not supported by scientific research, that a lack of consistent sexual activity leads to hormonal imbalances. This has a negative effect on the health of the cardiovascular system, the gastrointestinal tract, and the liver. The nervous system also undergoes negative changes, a man's character deteriorates, he becomes grumpy, grumpy. However, this is not characteristic of all representatives of the stronger sex.
Male potency as a factor in maintaining family relationships
When a man begins to have problems with erectile function, a crack appears in the family relationship, both sides suffer from this.
Erectile dysfunction symptoms
According to doctors, 10% of the stronger sex, who have crossed the forty-year-old line, show signs of erectile dysfunction (that is, there are erection problems). The symptoms of this phenomenon are the following:
- It is more difficult to get an erection.
- Partial erection, the penis does not reach full hardness.
- The sensations during intercourse weaken.
- During intercourse, the erection decreases.
- Sexual intercourse is delayed, a man cannot reach orgasm for a long time.
If such changes appear, you should consult a doctor (although men do not like to do this). Otherwise, impotence can develop over time.
In some cases, the ability to have a sexual life can persist up to 80 years or even longer. But in most cases, after 60 years, it decreases significantly, sometimes it disappears completely. It is true, in this sense, everything is individual.
Reasons for the extinction of the potency.
Experts cannot reach a consensus on the reasons for the extinction of male potency at a relatively young age. However, several reasons remain clear. First of all, it is a change in the composition of the blood: it becomes thicker, the amount of cholesterol increases. This leads to a malfunction of the vascular system. In particular, due to the excessive viscosity of the blood, the small vessels can become clogged. As a result, the work of the vessels supplying the penis becomes more difficult.
Another reason is the decrease in the elasticity of the vascular tissues, as well as the deterioration of the contraction capacity of the heart muscle.
In addition, the blood supply to the brain deteriorates, therefore, the speed of reaction to stimuli decreases. A man cannot get aroused quickly and then maintain a high level of erection.
There is also a decrease in the elasticity of muscles and tendons. This is also a consequence of poor blood supply. As a result, a man cannot have a complete sexual relationship.
Who is at risk
For example, representatives of the stronger sex, who jumped headlong into work and constantly think about it. In this case, testosterone levels drop, leading to problems with male potency.
Also, these are those who lead a sedentary lifestyle, do not crawl from behind the computer. Constant sitting leads to physical inactivity and negatively affects the functions of the body.
The third group at risk are people who are constantly under emotional stress: entrepreneurs, managers, etc.
How to avoid erectile dysfunction? First, you need to monitor the level of cholesterol in your blood. If it is high, it is necessary to change the food system, to exclude the products that provoke its increase.
Then start playing sports, leading an active lifestyle. Physical activity normalizes the composition of the blood.
And, of course, it is necessary to establish proper nutrition, which has a positive effect on male health and potency.
Nutrition that affects male strength
Animal proteins are the most important element in diets to improve erection. First of all, it involves meat of different varieties. For the stronger sex, it is a vital product, as it ensures the production of the main hormone, testosterone. Animal protein is also necessary for sperm production. Therefore, the diet, first of all, should include beef, lamb, pork, veal, liver, chicken, turkey, etc.
Men's nutrition is unthinkable without fish, mostly fatty varieties. It contains essential omega-3 and omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids that prevent the formation of cholesterol. The most useful varieties include: salmon, trout, halibut, catfish, chum salmon, pink salmon, mackerel, tuna, herring, etc.
So is seafood: shrimp, mussels, squid, crawfish, lobster, crabs, oysters, seaweed. All of them contain trace elements that improve the composition of the blood.
Eggs also belong to animal protein products. For a long time they were considered providers of cholesterol, so it was recommended to limit them. But for some time the eggs have been rehabilitated, since recent studies have shown that they do not cause the accumulation of bad cholesterol.
Quail eggs are especially useful for boosting. They have a strong stimulating effect, increase erection. You can eat 15-20 quail eggs scrambled (they are small: for comparison: the weight of a chicken egg is 60g and that of a quail egg is 10g).
In addition, the menu must necessarily include dairy products, as they are providers of complete animal protein. These are cottage cheese, cheese, feta cheese, milk, fermented baked milk, kefir, etc.
The diet should also contain plant foods. First in terms of utility are legumes: beans, peas, lentils. These crops are rich in plant proteins. They can be used to cook soups, cereals.
Large amounts of plant protein include nuts: walnuts, almonds, hazelnuts, cashews, peanuts, pistachios. In addition, nuts are rich in vitamin E, essential for sexual function.
Dark chocolate is also helpful for an erection.
It is clear that a healthy diet is unthinkable without fruits and vegetables. They contain vitamins and minerals necessary for the functioning of all organs and to maintain high immunity.
Seasonings and spices are very helpful in enhancing sexual function. The hotter and hotter they are, the better they help you experience arousal and maintain an erection. Among the spices, red and black peppers, curry, saffron, ginger, cloves, cinnamon, etc. are especially useful. They can be used to flavor various dishes, as well as to be included in baked goods.
Important seasonings also include vinegar, onions, garlic, horseradish, mustard, adjika, wasabi (warning: hot seasonings and spices are contraindicated in men with diseases of the gastrointestinal tract).
I must say that alcohol, due to its vasodilator properties, also has a beneficial effect on erection. But there is a very important point. Alcohol, when consumed in moderation, stimulates sexual function. And if you use it in excess, on the contrary, it oppresses you and leads even more to impotence.
