Male hormone suppression

Androgens are definitely not unfamiliar to men. They are a key type of growth hormone for men, which can promote the perfection of male reproductive organs and the growth, development and maintenance of secondary sexual characteristics. Androgens can stimulate the formation of sperm, maintain the secondary characteristics of men, and naturally have a key effect on men's sexual desire. In daily life, some men are becoming more and more indifferent, and insufficient androgen metabolism is also one of the key factors.

So what foods in daily life can cause a decrease in androgen?

1. Chinese kale

Chinese kale, also known as green leaf cabbage, kale, and radish, is a member of the cruciferous family and one of China's specialty vegetables and fruits. The "Compendium of Materia Medica" states: "It is sweet, spicy, cold, and consumes qi and blood." Therefore, Chinese kale is sweet and spicy, and has the effects of promoting diuresis, relieving cough and reducing phlegm, and removing toxins and expelling wind, but it also has the side effect of consuming one's true essence. Eating Chinese kale regularly can inhibit the metabolism of estrogen, which of course can reduce androgens and reduce male sexual desire.

2. Lotus Seed Heart

Lotus seed heart tastes slightly bitter and has a cold nature. It enters the heart, lung, and spleen meridians, and has very good effects and functions. It can purify the heart and remove heat, astringe the essence, activate blood circulation, and quench thirst. It is mainly used to treat symptoms such as restlessness, dry mouth, vomiting blood, frequent spermatorrhea, red eyes, and swelling and pain. However, modern scientific research shows that lotus seed heart has the effect of purifying the heart and reducing desire. In other words, if you eat too much, although your heart will be calm, your sexual desire will also decrease. It is not suitable to take too much during pregnancy. Naturally, if you want to abstain from desire, you can eat more.

3. Lingjiao

Lingjiao is one of the favorite snacks of many people in their childhood. It is loved by everyone. Lingjiao is also known as Yaoling, Shuili, Lingshi. It tastes sweet, cool, and non-toxic. It has the effect of calming the mind and strengthening the will. It can also calm the fire of sexual desire and eliminate heart heat. "Food Therapy Materia Medica" emphasizes: "Of all the fruits in water, this thing is the most cold-blooded. If people are frozen, it will damage the yang and make the jade stems wither." It can be seen that eating too much Lingjiao will cause boys' sexual desire to decrease, which can achieve the actual effect of abstinence.

4. Spring bamboo shoots

Spring bamboo shoots are a very cheap food that almost everyone has eaten. Spring bamboo shoots are cold and contain a lot of oxalic acid, which will reduce the body's absorption and utilization of calcium and zinc. Eating too much spring bamboo shoots can easily lead to insufficient calcium and zinc in the body. Calcium deficiency will reduce the quality of sperm and have a significant impact on sexual desire, so it is necessary to eat them appropriately.

5. Winter melon

Winter melon contains methylcellulose, nicotinic acid, etc. Winter melon is sweet and cool in nature. It can reduce heat and clear the heart. It also has anti-inflammatory, diuretic and anti-edema effects. Modern science has confirmed that eating winter melon regularly can relieve irritability and relieve restlessness. "Compendium of Materia Medica" says: "Winter melon is full of yin and earthy air, and is invaded by frost and dew outside. It is sweet in taste, and its air is cold and its nature is cold." Therefore, eating more winter melon can reduce sexual desire, and the actual effect is gentle, which can achieve the effect of abstinence.

Although food can reduce male hormones and reduce sexual desire, this can be repaired. Don't worry, you can get better immediately after stopping taking it. However, there are two factors that may cause irreversible damage to men's sexual function, especially in special attention.

1. Ethanol

Alcohol actually has a huge impact on male sexual function. These alcoholic men usually have low sexual function and poor mental state. Long-term alcoholism and large amounts of alcohol intake will disrupt the endocrine system, inhibit the metabolism of androgens, reduce the conversion of testosterone, and even cause it to shrink. This damage may be irreversible.

2. Smoke

Cigarettes are very harmful. The ingredients in cigarettes are complex and the damage to the human body is potential. If boys smoke too much, it can lead to poor blood circulation, affect men's sexual function, and in more serious cases, it can cause infertility. This kind of damage is potential and does not occur overnight. It is usually too late until it is discovered.
