Introduction: How is erectile dysfunction caused by decreased sexual function in men? How to control your diet? Let's take a look at what foods can cause male sexual dysfunction.
Why can't men eat too much tofu?
Tofu is a food made from soybeans, naturally containing protein and nutrients that are beneficial to health. However, some studies have found that if a man eats too much tofu, it can easily affect his erectile function.
Examples of real cases
Mr. Yang, 40, was recently diagnosed with male erectile dysfunction (ED). Mr. Yang has some doubts: the newspaper said that this kind of disease is often related to obesity, hypertension, diabetes and other diseases, and he has no problems. He usually exercises, so how can he "fail"?
After inquiring about Mr. Yang's illness and eating habits, he said, "Your illness is related to your eating habits, mainly because you eat too much soy products at ordinary times."
The impact of soy products
In addition to having a clear etiology, men with ED are sometimes associated with a preference for soy products. The prevalence of ED among men who regularly eat soy products is 3.46 times higher than among men who do not regularly eat soy products. This is because soy and its products are rich in isoflavone phytoestrogens, especially in men after the age of 40. The natural secretion of male hormones begins to decrease, and if estrogen is consumed in large quantities at this time, it will have adverse effects on sexual function.
What causes ED?
After the occurrence of ED, the first step is to change the habit of eating soy products and reduce intake. Some diseases of the urinary and reproductive system may also be the prime culprit leading to ED, such as prostate diseases, and should be treated promptly. Irregular eating, drinking, living, and staying in a sitting position for a long time, and lack of exercise can also induce ED.
After reading the above introduction, everyone should also pay attention to their daily dietary issues, especially for men. Although tofu is beneficial to health, it should also be consumed according to their own circumstances, and they should not eat too much tofu. They should also pay attention to the maintenance of sexual health in daily life.
