The doctor advised the best foods for men

Men should reconsider their diet in favor of meat and tomatoes, and avoid pastries, sweets, smoked meats, salty and fatty foods. This was stated by Andrey Tyazhelnikov, chief freelance specialist in primary health care for the adult population of the Moscow Health Department.

“Products high in zinc, selenium, ascorbic acid, tocopherol and B vitamins contribute to the maintenance of male strength, and their deficiency can adversely affect reproductive functions. They are found in meat, fish, seafood, leafy greens, fruits, vegetables, nuts, dairy products, legumes. Tomatoes are distinguished among vegetables, as they contain the antioxidant lycopene, which protects against prostate cancer, as well as other types of oncology, ”RIA Novosti quotes Tyazhelnikov.

The doctor emphasized that for men’s health it is worth minimizing the consumption of pastries, sweets, as well as fatty, salty and smoked foods. These products contribute to metabolic disorders, which leads to the development of obesity and the transformation of male hormones into female ones. In addition, alcohol has a negative effect.
