What are the benefits of eating chestnuts for men?

Chestnut is a kind of nut, rich in nutrients, and is loved by people, so some sugar-roasted chestnut stalls on the street are often very popular. Not only children like to eat chestnuts, but girls also often eat them as snacks. Generally, men eat less snacks, but it is best to eat some chestnuts from time to time, because if men often eat chestnuts, it is good for men to nourish the kidneys and strengthen their yang.

Chinese chestnut, commonly known as chestnut, is a specialty of my country and is known as the "king of dried fruits". It is also called "ginseng fruit" abroad. Chestnut is rich in nutrients. 100 grams of fresh chestnut contains 5.7 grams of protein, 2 grams of fat, 40 grams of carbohydrates, 25 grams of starch, as well as trace elements such as calcium, phosphorus, iron, potassium, fatty acids and carotene, providing 186 kcal of calories. Among dried fruits, chestnuts provide high calories, which can satisfy hunger and promote fat metabolism.

In addition, chestnuts also have high medicinal value. Chinese medicine believes that chestnuts are sweet and warm in nature, and enter the spleen, stomach, and kidney meridians. They can nourish the stomach and spleen, strengthen the waist and kidney, and promote blood circulation and stop bleeding. They are suitable for chronic diarrhea caused by spleen and stomach deficiency and cold, and back pain, knee weakness, waist paralysis, frequent urination, fractures and swelling caused by kidney deficiency. Therefore, men with kidney deficiency may wish to eat more chestnuts. "Compendium of Materia Medica" says that it can "treat kidney deficiency, waist and leg weakness, put raw chestnuts in a bag and hang them dry, eat more than ten a day, and eat pig kidney porridge to help, and you will be strong after a long time."

Chestnut porridge is suitable for people of all ages.

50 grams of chestnuts and 100 grams of polished rice are used to make porridge. Chestnuts and polished rice can not only strengthen the spleen and stomach, increase appetite, but also strengthen the kidneys and bones. It is especially suitable for the elderly who have poor appetite, sore waist and knees, and staggering gait due to functional degeneration. It is very beneficial for the elderly with kidney deficiency.

Because chestnuts can enter the spleen and kidney meridians, eating chestnuts regularly can strengthen the waist and kidneys. Men who are the backbone of their families and workplaces often suffer from kidney deficiency due to the double pressure of work and life. Eating some chestnuts can relieve the symptoms of kidney deficiency and make men more energetic.
