Factors that positively affect potency

Improving male sexual function is facilitated by a number of factors that affect the body and psyche of the stronger sex:

  • Nutrition. It is necessary to include foods rich in animal and plant proteins in the daily menu. These are cheese, cottage cheese, meat, eggs, nuts, almonds, unsalted pistachios, sesame seeds, squash, sunflower. The use of bee products, in particular, honey and pollen, has a good effect on male potency. Seafood is also among the products that help maintain male strength at a high level. The five most useful are seashells, oily sea fish, anchovies, crabs and shrimp. Their rich composition affects the work of all organs and systems of the body, restoring them to normal. Lack of important trace elements can be eliminated by taking vitamin and mineral complexes. In advance, it is worth conducting a laboratory study to identify such a deficiency;
  • Important! Regular consumption of seafood is a good insurance for a man against potency problems.

  • Physical activity. Exercise helps to develop stamina, strengthen the body, ultimately increasing male abilities. Suitable activities for this purpose are swimming, running, skiing, tennis. Running long distances is especially beneficial for improving blood circulation. In the initial stages, it is recommended to organize small runs. Over time, the distance increases. As the load increases, testosterone production increases, the cardiovascular system strengthens and male strength increases. If it is not possible to play sports, you can perform a set of physical exercises aimed at improving blood circulation in the pelvic and genital area;
  • Compliance with the regimeday with full night sleep;
  • Proper response to stressand overcoming them with the help of meditation, self-training, yoga classes. You can get rid of the accumulated fatigue with the help of massage and listening to pleasant music. Scientists have long proven the impact of music on the vital activity of the body. To harmonize the work of the sexual sphere, it is considered favorable to listen to melodies realized on the saxophone. There is an opinion that they can act as an audio stimulant.
  • stress and its effect on potency

    Among the alternative methods for restoring male power, there is a meditation program for a specially selected sound range. If you listen to audio recordings every day for a month and a half, you can affect the subconscious. As a result, the nervous system normalizes, a sense of satisfaction is achieved, resistance to external factors appears, which eventually leads to an increase in male strength;

  • Removal of chronic diseases, bringing about changes in the hormonal background and deterioration of blood circulation. First of all, it is necessary to monitor the condition of the heart and blood vessels, prostate gland, sugar level and also to prevent the development of hemorrhoids.

Factors that negatively affect potency

According to doctors's observations, the problem of erectile dysfunction, like many other diseases, is significantly "younger". The main factors that cause a decrease in power are those related to the lifestyle of a modern man:

  • chronic stress- a frightening factor that deters most ambitious people. The need to work hard, often without days off and vacations, conflicts, lack of sleep gradually impoverish the body, leading to disease, including a weakening of sexual ability. Living in megacities with high levels of air pollution, traffic jams also contribute to deteriorating well-being;
  • Bad habits. Drinking alcohol only in small doses (no more than a glass of wine, for example) can have a beneficial effect on sexual desire. Excessive consumption of alcoholic beverages leads to the accumulation of ethanol in the liver and brain, counteracts the production of testosterone, which eventually leads to lack of erection. The negative effect of smoking is expressed in the destructive effect of nicotine on blood vessels. With increasing experience of smoking, a gradual narrowing of blood vessels is observed. As a result, filling the cavernous bodies of the penis with blood becomes more difficult and an erection is not achieved. Narcotic substances tend to greatly affect sexual desire. Regular use of drugs leads to damage to the nervous system, changes in the sex glands, complete impotence. Moreover, the lifestyle of a drug addict contributes to debauchery with a high risk of contracting infectious diseases, leading to sad consequences, up to death;
  • Lack of physical activity. Sitting in the office, moving the car, relaxing on the couch in front of the TV lead to decreased vascular tone, weakening of the heart muscle and other muscles of the body. Deterioration of blood circulation in the pelvic area leads to erectile dysfunction over time;
  • unhealthy foodwith excessive consumption of fatty foods of animal origin contributes to the development of atherosclerosis. The harder it becomes for the vessels to fill the penis with blood, the erection becomes impossible. Excessive consumption of sweet foods affects the hormonal background and can impair erectile function.

Among the diseases, there are those that have a significant impact on strength and require close medical care:

  • Cardiovascular diseases. Since the onset of an erection is directly related to blood flow to the genital area, slow heart muscle work and poor blood vessel condition can become an obstacle to a healthy sex life;
  • Hormonal disorders, including diabetes mellitus, which leads to impaired permeability of the blood vessels that feed the genitals, damage to the nerves responsible for erection, and decreased hormone production;
  • obesity and its impact on potency
  • Obesity. With each extra pound, the amount of testosterone produced in the male body decreases and the amount of estrogen increases. A man's body gradually develops according to the type of woman: the breast grows, the timbre of the voice may change. Over time, excess weight becomes the cause of cardiovascular disease, diseases of the musculoskeletal system, infertility due to violation of the quality of seminal fluid;
  • Oncological diseasesif they have damaged the nerves and blood vessels responsible for the appearance of the erection;
  • Spinal cord injurywith spinal cord injury, multiple sclerosis, prostate.

Effect of testosterone on potency

Testosterone is the known leader among hormones produced in the male body. Secreted by the male gonads and adrenal cortex, it is responsible for the development of secondary male sexual characteristics, metabolism, physical ability, sexual strength, and mood. Scientists have found that the level of sexual activity depends directly on the level of the hormone in the blood. Its decline provokes in men difficulties with potency, ejaculation, reproduction.

Meanwhile, high testosterone levels have a negative impact on the body. In medical practice, a relationship has been established between the occurrence of malignant brain tumors and increased testosterone.

Changes in hormone levels are related to lifestyle, in frequency with:

  • Nutrition, which leads, for example, to obesity;
  • Alcohol and drug use;
  • Taking medication;
  • Age changes.

In the absence of serious health problems, normal testosterone levels in the male body can be maintained through proper nutrition and exercise. In the daily menu, alternating during the week, should be present:

  • Greenery;
  • Nuts;
  • Seafood containing zinc, selenium and essential fatty acids necessary for men - shrimp, salmon, mackerel, squid, shellfish;
  • Lean red meat. To increase testosterone levels, it is more effective to use it in combination with traditional spices, such as horseradish, garlic, paprika;
  • legumes;
  • Dairy products (especially cheese, cottage cheese);
  • Root vegetables, especially celery and ginger.

A prerequisite is also adequate sleep at night, daily walks in the fresh air during daylight hours, physical activity.

Factors affecting female power

Healthy sexual activity in a woman allows her to understand herself in two ways:

  • Carrying and giving birth to a child;
  • Receiving satisfaction from a partner, which contributes to maintaining good health and strengthening marital ties.

As in men, factors such as stress, strong emotional experiences, and physical fatigue affect the ability to enjoy sex. To recover from their influence, it is enough to rest, relax with pleasant music. The sound at the same time should not be loud, quiet music can excite better. A relaxing massage also has a good effect.

  • Diseases of the urogenital area that cause discomfort during sexual intercourse, for example, cystitis, thrush, various inflammations;
