Why have you been so irritable and angry recently? You can find out from the three reasons

In life, some men may find themselves frequently showing signs of being irritable and short-tempered recently. So, what exactly is going on with men being irritable and short-tempered?

1. Meat-loving

There are three reasons why eating meat makes people irritable: first, the animal protein in meat will reduce the "tryptophan" content in the brain, causing people to become irritable, aggressive, and combative; second, the large amount of saturated fatty acids in meat will increase blood pressure, and increased blood pressure is an important inducement of emotional instability; finally, meat will cause the calcium ion content in the blood to decrease, and the calcium in the blood can be a "cooling agent" for emotions. The reduction of calcium ions increases our tendency to be irritable.

2. Eating junk food

Junk food already has a bad reputation, and recently British scientists have added to the bad reputation. They divided male subjects into two groups, one group supplemented with a truly balanced, nutritious diet, and the other group was given only French fries and chicken burgers. After a year, they found that the boys who only ate French fries and chicken burgers became bad-tempered and violent.

3. Lack of male hormones

In addition to women, men also experience changes in hormone secretion. Testosterone is secreted most vigorously in the 20s and 30s, and then gradually decreases. French scholars found that in the study of men aged 20 to 60, the male testosterone secretion decreased by 1/4 in these 40 years. When testosterone decreases, men, like women, also have menopausal problems. Among their "early menopause" symptoms, mood swings, irritability and loneliness are the most common.
