A nutritionist talks about the five foods that should be in the diet of a man - fish, nuts, beef, pomegranates and tomatoes

Men need to eat fatty fish such as  salmon, sockeye salmon, mackerel, anchovy, herring and sardines . The MEAT of these fish contains calcium, selenium, B vitamins, magnesium. In addition, fish is rich in omega-3 fatty acids and protein.
Fish should appear on the menu at least twice a week, 150–200 grams each. In this scenario, a man is waiting for an increase in immunity and mood, activation of mental activity, a decrease in the risk of developing Parkinson's and Alzheimer's diseases and depression.
it is also useful to eat caviar and MILK of the above-mentioned fish. These by-products have a positive effect on the fertile functions of men, increase the number and motility of spermatozoa.

 

Nuts as a stimulant of potency and nervous activity are recommended for men by andrologists. A man should eat 25–35 grams of nuts daily, mixed with honey. It is best to use hazelnuts and pecans, macadamia, walnuts and pine nuts .
Nuts contain youth vitamin E, which slows down apoptosis (slow cell death), is an excellent antioxidant, angioprotector, and improves the rheology of blood clots.

Beef contains protein, which is a substrate for building muscle. It is rich in iron, which is involved in the synthesis of hemoglobin, which is necessary to supply the muscles with oxygen. In the men's menu, lean beef should be at least three times a week. Remember that healthy beef is boiled, steamed, in pies or dumplings. In general, in those dishes where it is without a fried crust. If the meat is fried, carcinogens lie in wait in the crust.

Contains vitamin B1 (thiamine), a lot of manganese, selenium, tryptophan, protein, magnesium. It has a beneficial effect on potency - it is not for nothing that pomegranate is called herbal Viagra. In addition, it is very useful for the functioning of the prostate gland. Acts as a prophylactic against adenoma and prostate cancer. What happens if a man eats half a pomegranate three times a week? Immunity is strengthened because white blood cells are activated, which absorb toxins, destroy viruses and bacteria, and heal damaged tissues. Lowers blood SUGAR, lowers cholesterol

Tomatoes in any form - fresh, baked, stewed, boiled - and their processed products are recommended by oncologists and andrologists due to the content of the antioxidant -  lycopene , which has anti-carcinogenic properties - reduces the risk of developing prostate cancer, pancreas, and also helps to treat male infertility.

In general, alcoholic beverages are very harmful. But andrologists and nutritionists do not advise men to drink beer: it is a “female” drink.
Hops, which is part of beer, contain phytoestrogens - substances that interact with the receptors of female sex hormones and are the cause of the development of the classic "beer" belly, female-type fat deposition, and increased cholesterol. In addition, beer generally disrupts fat metabolism, causes fatty degeneration of the liver and bile stasis. The dose of beer for beer gourmets can be no more than once a week and certainly not every day, as some men are used to doing.

The most terrible carcinogenic product that provokes the development of benign tumors in the intestines and can increase the risk of cancer. In America, chips in the form of sticks are jokingly called "cancer sticks".
In addition, in men after 45 years of age, the risk of developing colon cancer and the formation of polyps increases. Therefore, for those who have reached this age, chips should be banned.

Unfortunately chips are cheap and many people eat chips in large quantities. Meanwhile, chips are very high in calories, and, worst of all, they contain large amounts of fat. Fats and SALT. The use of such products leads to cardiovascular problems.

Andrologists do not recommend that men eat soy, as well as products from it - sauces, soy milk , tofu. After all, soy contains vegetable estrogens, which worsen the male hormonal background and contribute to the occurrence of erectile dysfunction.

In addition, with regular, daily use of soy, gynecomastia can occur - the growth of the mammary glands in men, as well as a decrease in the number and mobility of spermatozoa. Moreover, if you use soy products infrequently, only once a week, then there will be no harm.

Please note that soy is a part of many sausages, which means that you should not eat such sausage or sausages every day.

Bacon is salted and smoked pork. However, there is a lot of fat in bacon. And, as a rule, this delicacy also gets fried on the table, because many people cook scrambled eggs and bacon for breakfast. All these components make the product of little use. 

This spicy plant, like hops and soy, is rich in hormone-like substances - phytoestrogens. Therefore, mint is traditionally called female grass. If a man regularly consumes mint, drinks tea with it, etc., this can significantly reduce the amount of testosterone and, most dangerously, reduce libido - sexual desire.
