Modern man is, when it is about his health, quite careless. Men are more likely to become obese, they are much less likely to visit a physician when some symptoms occur and have much more chance to live unhealthy life. Here are some advices for men:
Eliminate whites
Foods like white flour and white sugar and some other sorts of processed food are devoid of natural fiber, minerals and vitamins. When they reach bloodstream, they increase sugar levels in blood and may lead to weight gain, diabetes, heart problems, and other health disorders. Try to eat fiber-rich fruits, vegetables and other plants.
No to trans fats
More important than reducing overall fat intake, is reducing some very dangerous types of fat. Stay away from deep-fried food because it can multiply the risk of suffering some heart or cardiovascular disease. Try to consume only healthful fats, like omega-3 fatty acids which can be found in fish oil, use olive oil instead of refined sunflower oil.
Take multivitamin and mineral supplements
There is no substitute for a good diet, but the chance that you will manage to get all things your body needs on a daily basis are little. You can get these in every pharmacy. They are safe to use and the side-effects are extremely rare.
Weight training
This is important because it improves your cardiovascular condition and improves your overall health. If you can, try to free some time and dedicate to your muscles. Aerobic exercises or, even better, weight training will improve your health and make you feel better.
Monitor and maintain weight
This one is good. Try not to lose the battle with all tasty stuff and all-day rest. Statistic showed that during time, more and more men are losing that battle. Maintaining healthy body tonus and weight will help you look better, feel better and stay free of all sorts of heart diseases, diabetes and some types of cancer. All you should do is to follow given guidelines.
Look after your prostate
Saw palmetto and pygeum will stop, or even reverse the process of benign prostatic hyperplasia, which can lead to frequent nighttime urination after your forties. The recommended doses are 160-320 mg of saw palmetto and 40-80 mg of pygeum per day.
Reduce the risk of getting prostate cancer
80-90 percent of all cancers can be prevented by looking after your lifestyle. Try to incorporate tomatoes, soy and green tea in your diet, instead of saturated and trans fats. Try to take at least 200µg of selenium and 800IU of vitamin E.
Maintain sexual function
The main reason for sexual dysfunction is difficulty with blood flow in your penis. Try to exercise, follow a low-fat diet and take supplements. If you're taking some drugs, review them with your physician, because many of them can cause problems with erection. If you are a smoker, try to quit, because cigarettes are one of main causes for erectile dysfunction. A plant called gingko biloba is good for your sex-life.
