With the improvement of people's living standards, their awareness of health preservation has also become stronger, and more and more people are paying attention to health preservation. Men hold a crucial position in society, serving as the pillars of society and the backbone of families. How can men maintain good health? What can men eat to maintain health? Good dietary habits are essential for male health preservation. Let's take a look together with the editor below.
1. Garlic alleviates fatigue
People all know that garlic has strong bactericidal ability and can eliminate invading bacteria in the body. But did you know - it also helps with the absorption of vitamin B1, promotes carbohydrate metabolism to generate energy, and alleviates fatigue. Another undeniable function of garlic is to enhance immunity, and the lead selenide it contains also has antioxidant properties, making it considered a cancer prevention food.
2. Eating more oysters can replenish essence
After the age of 24, the quality and quantity of sperm in males are declining. Male semen contains a large amount of zinc, which can affect the quantity and quality of sperm when there is insufficient zinc in the body. And seafood oysters, shrimp, and crabs have the most abundant zinc content, with a small oyster having enough zinc to meet a daily need (15 milligrams), thereby enhancing men's sexual ability.
3. Oats are beneficial for cardiovascular health
Oats, nuts, and vegetable oils all contain vitamin E, which can prevent cholesterol from clogging blood vessels and remove waste from the body. It is recommended that men should eat more of these foods. Li Zhihong also pointed out that oats are rich in soluble cellulose, which can protect men's hearts and blood vessels by clearing cholesterol, reducing the risk of developing diseases such as hypertension and stroke.
4. Tomatoes protect the prostate gland
Lycopene can clear free radicals in prostate and protect prostate tissue. This natural carotenoid is mainly found in red foods such as tomatoes, watermelons, grapefruit, etc. An adult can meet the body's needs for lycopene by eating 100-200 grams of tomatoes every day, while ripe tomatoes are more easily absorbed by the body.
5. Deep-sea fish have fewer strokes
The age of men suffering from high-fat blood and stroke is decreasing year by year, while omega-3 fatty acids in deep-sea fish can prevent blood clotting, reduce vasoconstriction, and reduce triglycerides, which is particularly effective in maintaining the health of heart and blood vessels. Deep-sea fish rich in omega-3 fatty acids, including mackerel, saury, grouper, salmon, etc., can be eaten interchangeably, but remember to eat fish at least twice a week.
6. Paired with beans when eating pork
Men often prefer animal fat, but this can overload the kidneys and increase the risk of cardiovascular disease, malignant tumors, and other diseases. So, men should learn to eat a light diet, especially by reducing animal fats and the total amount of cooking oil. In addition, it is best to pair pork with legumes because soy products contain a large amount of lecithin, which can emulsify plasma, reduce cholesterol and fat particles, and prevent the formation of hardened plaques.
7. Fresh jujube to deal with high-pressure work
Men, due to their long-term role as bearers in work, family, and society, are in a state of long-term stress and need more nutrition supplementation. People who are often mentally stressed can eat 3 to 5 fresh dates and supplement with vitamin C every day to cope with heavy work. In addition to fresh dates, foods rich in vitamin C include kiwifruit, oranges, oranges, broccoli, asparagus, and more.
