A Harvard University professor of nutrition survey found that some parts of the Middle East, Egypt, near Cairo, some residents are very common genital hypoplasia, testicular atrophy, short penis, no beard, pubic and armpit hair. Although some of the normal genital development, but the low sexual desire, a small number of sperm, low energy, not fertility. Why is this? After further investigation, the professor found that residents of these areas in a wide range of food deficiency. Is zinc and human reproductive health are so closely linked it?
Zinc is a trace element, which, calcium, iron, like the human body are indispensable to ensure good health is an important material. Although the body only 2 to 3 grams of zinc, but play an irreplaceable role. Zinc is an activator of several enzymes involved in many biochemical reactions in vivo. Zinc is particularly close relationship with the gonads, long-term zinc deficiency affects not only the function of the pituitary, the reduction of gonadotropin secretion, causing genital developmental disorders, will also affect the formation of sperm, resulting in sexual dysfunction, and even lead to refractory disease. This is particularly worth mentioning is the chronic prostatitis.
Chronic prostatitis is a high incidence of males, had sense of chronic prostatitis in addition to frequent urination, bloating, there are sexual dysfunction, including impotence, premature ejaculation, semen less, difficult or even blood, sperm and other ejaculate. Male sexual dysfunction, 20% to 30% is caused by chronic prostatitis, age of onset from youth to old age have. Alcoholism, frequent masturbation, lust can lead to chronic prostatitis. Prostatic fluid prostatic secretion is an important part of semen, sperm and nutritious semen dilution effect. When there is inflammation of the prostate, the resulting quality of the prostate problems, so that the sperm of essential nutrients and help the material to reduce sperm motility, especially the lack of zinc. Zinc is something indispensable to the survival of sperm, the lack of it to decreased sperm quality. Scientists confirmed that in healthy prostate and prostatic fluid contain a large amount of zinc, the zinc contained in the prostate than in other organs of the body are high. The study also found that if there is a prostate disease, in which the zinc content must be low. French scientists, research shows that if the zinc content of the prostate in more than 30% below normal, then easily lead to prostatic hypertrophy and prostatitis; such as reduction of more than 60%, the incidence of prostate cancer increased significantly.
How to make the body maintain normal levels of zinc do? It is simply "cut costs."
The so-called "open source" is to eat foods rich in zinc. In general, a person eating a normal diet is not zinc deficiency, zinc deficiency is mainly due to the reason why diet is not balanced, grain-based diet to food, and animal protein intake. As cereals, vegetables and other foods containing more starch, pectin and cellulose, which can interfere with zinc absorption and utilization. To ensure that the body has enough zinc, will moderate intake of animal protein. Oysters, meat, eggs, nuts, carrots, potatoes are rich in zinc, especially oysters, zinc content of various foods in the first ranking. "Throttling" is to reduce the loss of zinc, alcohol can promote the excretion of zinc, so people tend to zinc deficiency alcoholism. Sexual dysfunction is very common in alcoholics, including loss of libido, impotence, ejaculation disorders, etc., so pay attention to alcohol. There are a number of chronic diseases such as cirrhosis, pancreatitis patients because of poor digestion lead to malabsorption of zinc, and some patients with long-term use of certain drugs also appear deficient, they mentioned the same in patients with prostate disease should be conscious zinc under the guidance of a doctor.
Zinc on reproductive health is so critical, no wonder labeled as "husband and wife Harmony prime" reputation. But be careful not to over-intake, because too much zinc may affect the absorption of other trace elements, then, what other security problems caused by uncertainty and a.
