LONDON - Want to keep your sexual performance and fertility supplements? Then you would do well not to overlook the power. They are, in fact, more and more data indicating that a good diet, the Mediterranean at the top, may have a protective effect on various andrological problems. I am also convinced the experts of the Italian Society of Andrology (SIA) that this year, sponsored by the Ministry of Labour, Health and Social Policy and the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry, dedicated to the ninth power edition andrological Prevention Week, an initiative aimed at raising the male population to draw attention to their sexual health and fertility.
POWER AND SEXUAL HEALTH - "Food is a key element for a healthy life in a healthy lifestyle - said Vincent Gentile, president of both -. The sexual well-being linked to food is due to a number of factors ranging from food quality to the association of these varied psychological implications for those who are often identified as a aphrodisiac food. The traditional Mediterranean diet is surely one of the most effective for the protection of health, including sexual. A diet too rich in carbohydrates, for example, can cause an abnormal insulin response that results in the decrease of testosterone. Prefer fresh food, rich in antioxidants, to minimize the consumption of animal fats maintain a healthy circulatory system and thus also the efficient vascular system of the penis, which is critical for good erection. " Healthy and balanced diet also helps to ward off obesity and overweight and to prevent damage to the cardiovascular system that may have adverse effects on sexuality.
OBESITY AND SEXUAL DYSFUNCTION - "There is a close relationship between sexual dysfunction, cardiovascular problems and obesity - says Gentile -. Erectile dysfunction, in particular, is synonymous with dysfunction of the endothelium (the lining of blood vessels) and as such identifies a strong link between pain and heart, as confirmed by recent studies. Indeed it was seen that the appearance of erectile dysfunction, indicating a high risk of heart attack in the next 2 or 3 years. " "To follow a Mediterranean diet determines a system of direct positive impact on sexual outcomes with increased testosterone, cholesterol control and increase in antioxidant-Mondaini Nicholas points out, medical director of the S. Maria Annunziata University of Florence -. In terms of indirect effects, vary their diet, following the suggestions from the food pyramid, you can keep your weight under control with clear benefits for the general health and sexual health. "
DIET AND FERTILITY - In addition to the good of sexuality, the Mediterranean diet is likely to play an important role also in terms of fertility. "Male infertility today has an important social value. On it, the environmental conditions that affect both ways of life - says Vincent Gentile -. Already known to the causes of infertility such as varicocele, now flanked by pollution and diet. In men living in urban areas or in areas with high industrialization, but also in agricultural areas where pesticides are used, there was a reduction in sperm motility, in some cases, increased to 20% compared to that of men who live in smaller towns. " There are several mechanisms by which power can undermine fertility. For example it is assumed that the absorption of substances that accumulate in the path of food can affect the hormonal system. It 's the case of hydrocarbons used in agriculture rather than the products used to increase the weight of farm animals, substances that end up in the chain food and that in the long term, may, through complicated mechanisms, interfere with the maturation of sperm and male infertility support, with the most visible effects on future generations. "Today, children and adolescents are physically more structured, higher than the average of a few decades ago, but have smaller genitals. Have in one case 3 andrological pathologies that in 60% of cases may disrupt the reproductive capacity - says Nicola Mondani -. The solutions to these problems are different, but it sure is important to intervene also in terms of food, preferring certified products grown without the use of pesticides and chemical fertilizers. It is further important to accustom the children from an early age to a healthy and varied as that proposed by the Mediterranean diet that accompany the exercise and other good lifestyle habits such as avoiding smoking, drugs and alcohol.
