17 foods for men's health. Part 2
We continue to talk about foods that positively affect men's health and increase potency in particular:
8. Dark chocolate
According to statistics, more than 50% of cases of impotence and other reproductive system problems in men are associated with stress and neurosis. That is why men should include dark chocolate in their diet. After all, it increases the level of serotonin, an excellent natural antidepressant.
German scientists from the University Hospital of Cologne have proved that dark chocolate helps control high blood pressure and also can be used as a treatment for people suffering from impotence. Cocoa flavonoids contained in chocolate secrete compounds that improve blood flow to the penis.
9. Dairy
Dairy products not only have an effect on how long sex lasts but also influence the sperm quality. Those men whose diet includes dairy have 1.2 times more active spermatozoa in their sperm than those whose diet does not include any. For example, heavy cream has a lot of arginine, a substance which is contained in sperm in large quantities.
10. Meat
Meat is a source of coenzyme, that is required to maintain the level of nitric oxide in man's body. Nitric oxide is a necessary element for healthy functioning penis. In 2009, American scientists from the University of Michigan found that the higher the concentration of nitric oxide, the stronger the male sexual organ.
11. Spinach
Experts from Harvard University have confirmed that spinach, which is rich in iron, helps boost fertility. Doctors recommend consuming raw spinach, since it contains lots of the coenzymes that are necessary to increase the level of nitric oxide as we have already mentioned.
12. Honey
Honey is high in vitamins (A, B, PP) and amino acids (over 20). Honey is good not only for improving men's functions but also for the normal functioning of the entire body.
That is why in ancient Persia, husbands had a honey drink for a month after getting married. That helped them to be constantly in a good shape.
13. Watermelon
American scientists from Texas have proved that the effect of consuming this plant is similar to the effect of viagra. That is all because watermelon contains arginine and citrulline, which are involved in the formation of nitric oxide – an element that relaxes the vessels of our organs (including the penis in men).
14. Garlic
Doctors from Japan have found that dried garlic is an excellent aphrodisiac. Garlic is rich in substances that stimulate the synthesis of sex hormones. Dry garlic protects the prostate tissue from oxidation and further destruction.
15. Blueberries
Blueberries are an excellent source of vitamin C. Studies conducted at the University of Texas have revealed that a lack of vitamin C reduces the sperm motility. A cup of blueberries contains a daily norm of vitamin C. Also consumption of blueberries improves memory.
16. Vanilla
Scientists from Chicago have proven that vanilla increases blood circulation in the penis.
17. Dates
Men should include dates in their diets as they contain a lot of amino acids and vitamins (potassium, zinc, almost all b vitamins), and even high in glucose. Therefore, dates can be a quick fix for energy.
Thus, these foods will help avoid a potency problem. By adding them in your diet, you will be able to make up a quality sex life and engage in long-lasting sex at any time of the day or night.
