Effect of vitamins on male potency

The body depends on a regular supply of nutrients. Deficiency of useful vitamins and micro-elements leads to gradual depletion of organs leading to complete loss of functionality and development of pathologies. An unbalanced diet is one of the causes of erectile dysfunction.

Influence of potency

The lack of the following vitamins and minerals affects men's potency:

  1. A is a common name for some organic substances. It provides secretion of sex hormones and increased conductivity of the seminal ducts. A man should receive 1 milligram of this substance every day.
  2. B1, or thiamine, stimulates the activity of the cardiovascular and nervous system, which also affects erection. For an adult male, the daily requirement for thiamine is between 1. 3 and 2. 6 milligrams.
  3. B2, or riboflavin, determines the work of the endocrine system, which affects libido. Every day a person should consume 2 milligrams of the substance.
  4. B6 - a group of biologically active substances is united under this general name. The compounds are responsible for testosterone secretion, testicular and prostate function. The daily requirement depends on age: after 19 years it is 2 milligrams, after 60 years - 2. 2 milligrams.
  5. B12, or cobalamins, are biologically active organic compounds of cobalt. Adequate concentration of the substance (2. 4 milligrams per day) provides increased sexual desire.
  6. C, or ascorbic acid stimulates blood circulation and testosterone synthesis. One should consume 90 milligrams of this organic compound every day.
  7. D: Normal consumption of the substance (600 micrograms per day, after 70 years - 800 micrograms) reduces the risk of developing prostate neoplasms, provides increased production of libido, semen and sperm.
  8. E - group of tocopherol derivatives. It improves blood circulation, participates in the secretion of sex hormones, increases the quality of libido and sperm. The daily requirement is 10 milligrams.
  9. Zinc is one of the components of testosterone, in addition, and its deficiency increases the risk of developing or exacerbating prostatitis. The requirement of the male body for this metal is 15 milligrams per day.
  10. Selenium is essential for semen and testosterone secretion. Up to 7 micrograms of it should enter the body daily.

How to fill the gap?

A man can get trace elements and vitamins for potassium from food, by introducing an increased amount of certain foods or from special preparations in the diet. However, the best results can be obtained by combining the two methods, which are explained in different circumstances:

  1. To date, it has not been possible to develop a complex drug that can be a full-fledged substitute for food. In addition to vitamins and minerals, food contains many other substances and nutrients that the body needs.
  2. Certain organic compounds in food are in negligible amounts. It is almost impossible to eat enough food to meet the daily requirement for such vitamins.
  3. Some vitamins are found in natural products in a form that is not badly absorbed by the human body.
  4. To accurately determine the concentration of a particular substance in a product, you need to make sure that all industrial and agricultural technologies are strictly adhered to. Fruits and vegetables that find their way to storage shelves are often attractive, but at the same time they are weak in vitamins and micro-elements.
  5. If you eat enough food to meet the daily requirement for one substance, an excess of other vitamins may be provided.

Not only is there a lack of trace elements and vitamins, but also some pathologies and other psychological disorders. Also, the cause may be heavy work - in this case, improvements in the work of the reproductive system can be noticed after a good rest. In this regard, all men suffering from sexual weakness should be examined by a specialized specialist.

It should be remembered that hypervitaminosis is not as dangerous as nutritional deficiencies. Increased content of some compounds can lead to dangerous pathologies.

If test results show that a vitamin deficiency causes male erectile dysfunction:

  1. Recommendations for daily nutrition are given - the diet is taken with an increased amount of seafood, beef liver, nuts, fresh herbs, vegetables, berries and fruits.
  2. Appropriate vitamin and mineral complex is prescribed. In addition to the name of the drug, the doctor must tell you the exact dose. As the state of the reproductive system improves and vitamin and mineral balance is restored, daily intake of vitamins is reduced or transferred to a drug with lower concentrations of active substances.

An improvement in erection is usually noticed within a few weeks after starting treatment.
