Sperm is an essential component of childbirth and has a direct impact on offspring. Therefore, protecting men's sperm is an important thing. Let's take a look at the things we must pay attention to in life.
Environmental pollution has reduced the quality of male sperm, unhealthy lifestyles have engulfed his muscle strength, increasing pressure has corroded his sexual ability... There are also many reasons for the decline in sperm quality, which are caused by human factors in daily life. In research, it has been proven that the following six factors have the greatest impact on sperm quality.
The six factors that consume a man's "essence" are:
1、 High temperature
Many men consider sauna as a must-have for relaxation. In fact, the testicles prefer low temperatures, as their temperature is 2 degrees lower than the normal body temperature in order to function properly. Frequent sauna can raise the temperature of the testicles, leading to metabolic disorders and a severe decrease in male hormone secretion, resulting in a decrease in sperm count.
Health correction:
Shower is the main method. Men are not suitable for taking frequent bubble baths, preferably showering. If taking a bath, it is best to keep the water temperature lower and the soaking time shorter.
2. Regular massage. Massage the testicles while taking a shower or before going to bed. Gently pinch the testicles with your thumb and massage clockwise and counterclockwise for 5 minutes each. Long term persistence is beneficial, and small abnormalities in the testicles can be detected in a timely manner during massage.
2、 Tight pants
Men also want to show off their sexiness, so sexy underwear and tight jeans have become a fashion must-have for men. Male experts suggest that tight pants reduce the already small "activity space" of the testicles, resulting in issues of breathability and poor heat dissipation, which reduces the efficiency of testicular work.
Health correction:
Loose fitting clothes are the best choice. Whether in the workplace or at home, testicles can be "relaxed" as much as possible, which is more conducive to sweating and heat dissipation.
2. Correct sleeping posture. When sleeping, it's best to choose to sleep naked, allowing it to comfortably breathe and completely relax, and rest at its best state.
3、 Alcohol
Men cannot avoid drinking alcohol, but their testicles do not like it. Excessive alcohol intake can greatly weaken the function of producing sperm and secreting male hormones, leading to premature aging of the testicles and reduced sexual ability.
Health correction:
Eat more mangoes. This fruit is rich in vitamin C, calcium, magnesium, copper, zinc and other elements, which are the most lacking nutrients in the testes that have been tested by alcohol. Drinking a glass of mango juice every day, along with a little honey, can help smooth blood circulation in the testes and effectively prevent orchitis.
2. Strengthen the kidneys. For the ability of the testicles, renal function can be said to be interconnected. Taking off your shoes, keeping your feet close to the ground, and grasping the ground with your toes can effectively stimulate the kidney meridian acupoints, improve kidney function, and also provide good protection for the testicles.
4、 Tail gas and noise
With the modernization of cities, the impact of exhaust gas and noise on health is becoming more prominent. Car exhaust contains a large amount of harmful substances, among which dioxins are extremely strong environmental endocrine disruptors, which can cause changes in testicular morphology, reduced sperm count, and decreased quality. Noise can cause endocrine disorders in the human body, leading to male infertility.
Health correction:
Massage the soles of the feet. Frequently letting him soak his feet can promote reproductive system health. In addition, there is a triangular area below the outer ankle of the foot, which is responsible for the health of the male testicles. When soaking the feet, it is recommended to press here to promote detoxification and is the best maintenance for the testicles.
2. Train for deep breathing. Keep the body constantly filled with fresh oxygen and circulate smoothly up and down, avoiding the production of toxins in the testicles due to hypoxia, and improving sperm quality.
5、 Sedentary
Sitting for 8 hours or even more every day. Because they sit for a long time, they also choose softer and more comfortable chairs to reduce fatigue. But such a chair can reduce testicular vitality. If the seat is too soft, the center of gravity of the whole person will drop, and the hip will bear more force, thus squeezing the scrotum, resulting in poor venous blood flow, and greatly reducing the vitality of the testis.
Health correction:
Take herbal testicular maintenance medication. For example, in Malaysia, there is a herbaceous plant called "Dong Ge Ali" that can effectively increase male hormone levels, unblock the vas deferens, and activate testicular cells.
2. Do push ups. Doing 20 push ups a day can strengthen the function of the reproductive system and promote sperm motility. But it is best not to sit on a soft bed for push ups, as the body's support capacity is insufficient. The best effect is to do them on a hard floor.
6、 Chemicals
The decrease in male sperm count is related to a chemical substance called phthalates. This substance can interfere with the human endocrine system, reduce the number and vitality of male sperm, and even lead to testicular cancer, which is the "culprit" causing male reproductive problems.
Health correction:
1. Use fewer chemicals. Phthalates are widely used in plastic products, such as sealed cans and plastic bags, which can be replaced by heat-resistant glass or ceramic containers. Phthalates are contained in various detergents, nail polish and lubricating oil, so it is better to use less.
Eat more vegetables. Vegetables contain a large amount of vitamins, folic acid, and plant fiber, which can help the body metabolize waste, eliminate chemicals from the body, and promote the health and vitality of the testes.
