The body depends on a normal supply of nutrients. Lack of vitamins and useful trace elements will lead to gradual organ failure, until complete loss of function and pathological development. An unbalanced diet is one of the causes of erectile dysfunction.
Influence effectiveness
Deficiencies in the following vitamins and minerals can affect men’s effectiveness:
- A is the common name of several organic substances. Provides the secretion of sex hormones and increases the conductivity of the seminal ducts. A man should consume 1 mg of this substance every day.
- B1 or thiamine can stimulate cardiovascular and nervous system activity, which can also affect erection. For adult men, the daily requirement of thiamine is 1. 3 to 2. 6 mg.
- B2 or riboflavin determines the work of the endocrine system and affects libido. A person should consume 2 mg of this substance every day.
- B6-A group of biologically active substances is unified under this common name. These compounds are responsible for testosterone secretion, testicular and prostate function. The daily requirement depends on age: 2 mg after 19 years of age, and 2. 2 mg after 60 years of age.
- B12 or cobalamin is an organic compound of cobalt with biological activity. Substances in a sufficient concentration (2. 4 mg per day) can increase libido.
- C, or ascorbic acid stimulates blood circulation and testosterone synthesis. A man should consume 90 mg of this organic compound every day.
- D: Normal consumption of this substance (600 micrograms per day, after 70 years-800 micrograms) can reduce the risk of prostate tumors and increase libido, semen and sperm production.
- E-a group of tocopherol derivatives. Improve blood circulation, participate in the secretion of sex hormones, improve libido and sperm quality. The daily requirement is 10 mg.
- Zinc is one of the components of testosterone, and if it is lacking, the risk of prostatitis or aggravated prostatitis will increase. The male body's requirement for this metal is 15 mg per day.
- Selenium is essential for the secretion of semen and testosterone. A maximum of 7 micrograms should enter the body every day.
How to fill the gap?
A person can obtain trace elements and vitamins from food by increasing the amount of certain foods or special preparations in the diet. Nevertheless, combining these two methods can get the best results, which can be explained by the following situations:
- So far, it has not been possible to develop a complex drug that can be used as a mature substitute for food. In addition to vitamins and minerals, food also contains many other substances and nutrients that the human body needs.
- The content of certain organic compounds in food is negligible. It is almost impossible to eat enough food to meet the daily demand for such vitamins.
- Some vitamins are found in natural products in forms that are difficult for the body to absorb.
- To accurately determine the concentration of a specific substance in a product, you need to ensure strict compliance with all industrial and agricultural techniques. Fruits and vegetables on the shelves usually look attractive, but at the same time they are low in vitamins and trace elements.
- Eating enough food to meet the daily needs of one substance can provide an excess of other vitamins.
Erectile problems are not only caused by the lack of trace elements and vitamins, but also by many other pathological and psychological disorders. In addition, the cause may be severe overwork-in this case, an improvement in the work of the reproductive system can be noticed after adequate rest. In this regard, every man with weak sexual function should be examined by a specialized expert.
It should be remembered that the risk of hypervitaminosis is no less than that of nutritional deficiencies. Increased levels of certain compounds can lead to dangerous pathologies.
If the test results show that the cause of male erectile dysfunction is a lack of vitamins:
- Gives daily nutritional advice-seafood, beef liver, nuts, fresh herbs, vegetables, berries and fruits have been added to the diet.
- Appropriate vitamin and mineral complexes are prescribed. In addition to the name of the drug, the doctor must also tell you the exact dosage. As the state of the reproductive system improves and the balance of vitamins and minerals is restored, the daily intake of vitamins will be reduced or switched to drugs with lower active substance concentrations.
An improvement in erection is usually observed within a few weeks after starting treatment.
