Common food for aphrodisiac pairing
After reaching middle age, people's sexual desire gradually declines. Supplementing them with food is both effective and simple.
Research has confirmed that men who eat vegetarian food for a long time are deficient in vitamin B12, which affects sexual function. When men have insufficient intake of fatty acids, sperm production is disrupted, sexual desire decreases, and even infertility occurs. Therefore, to enhance sexual function, fat intake should be moderate. Foods such as meat, fish, and poultry eggs can increase the level of male hormones in the body, especially in the internal organs of animals, which contain adrenocortical hormones, which are beneficial for increasing human sperm production and promoting sperm production.
Sperm protein contains more arginine, which has the effect of eliminating fatigue and improving sexual function. Foods with high levels of arginine and a large amount of slippery substances include turtles, eels, river eels, cuttlefish, octopus, earthworms, peanuts, walnuts, sesame seeds, laver, and peas. Frozen tofu has the highest arginine content, followed by other soy products. Taurine in meat and fish can promote sperm motility. Eating more of these foods is undoubtedly beneficial for male sexual function.
Vitamins related to sexual function mainly include vitamins B12, A, C, and E.
Some doctors have found that for patients with pernicious anemia complicated with oligospermia, treatment with vitamin B12 not only increases red blood cells, but also improves semen, restores fertility, and achieves a "double blessing" effect.
Vitamin B12 is abundant in liver, milk, fish, etc. Vegetarians do not eat these foods, so the concentration of vitamin B12 in their semen is significantly lower than that of normal people.
Both vitamins A and E can increase libido, sperm production, and sperm vitality. When vitamin A deficiency occurs, it can affect the production of spermatocytes in the spermatic cord epithelium of male animals, epithelial degeneration of the vas deferens, decreased testicular weight, decreased seminal vesicles, and keratinization of the prostate. Foods that contain more vitamin A include animal liver, milk, eggs, cod liver oil, corn, carrots, sweet potatoes, and tomatoes. The role of vitamin C is to reduce sperm aggregation and facilitate semen liquefaction. Vitamins are very abundant in fresh vegetables and fruits, as well as in vegetable oils.
Modern medicine has proven that due to the lack of manganese in the human body, it can lead to decreased enzyme activity, decreased secretion of pituitary gonadotropin and growth hormone, and obstacles to growth and development. However, traditional Chinese medicines such as deer antler, honey, ginseng, Chinese wolfberry, ripe ground, mulberry, and Eucommia ulmoides have high manganese content and good aphrodisiac effects.
It is worth mentioning that zinc is a nutrient for sexual maturation, which is related to the functional activities of more than 70 enzymes (biocatalysts) in the body. Zinc deficiency in infants can cause developmental disorders, testicular growth retardation, testicular shrinkage, and dysfunction. Zinc deficiency in men of reproductive age can lead to gonadal atrophy and reduced secretion of sexual hormones, resulting in spermatogenesis disorders, decreased sperm motility, increased abnormal sperm, decreased sperm count, decreased natural fertility rates, and even infertility.
Zinc is also known as "husband and wife harmony factor". Zinc deficiency in the human body directly affects the gonads, causing them to atrophy, and reducing the secretion of sexual hormones. Eating more zinc rich foods can promote sexual maturity and development in young people, while avoiding sexual dysfunction in adulthood. This is also an effective method for family self healing. Common sources of zinc include lean meat, animal liver, eggs, beef, seafood, snails, and mussels, followed by peanuts, apples, walnuts, tofu skin, white fungus, soybeans, cabbage, and ginger. The top zinc containing foods are oysters and herring.
