The effect of vitamins on male potency

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

Influence on potency

Male potency is affected by a lack of the following vitamins and minerals:

  1. And is a common name for several organic substances. It enables the secretion of sex hormones and increased conductivity of the seminal ducts. A person should take 1 milligram of this substance daily.
  2. B1, or thiamine, stimulates the activity of the cardiovascular and nervous systems, which also affects erections. For an adult man, the daily need for thiamine ranges from 1, 3 to 2, 6 milligrams.
  3. B2 or riboflavin determines the work of the endocrine system that affects libido. Every day a person should consume 2 milligrams of this substance.
  4. B6 - a group of biologically active substances is united under this common 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 cobalamin are biologically active organic cobalt compounds. Sufficient concentration of the substance (2. 4 milligrams per day) increases sexual desire.
  6. C or ascorbic acid stimulates blood circulation and testosterone synthesis. A person 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, ensures increased libido, semen and sperm production.
  8. E - group of tocopherol derivatives. Improves blood circulation, participates in the secretion of sex hormones, increases libido and sperm quality. The daily requirement is 10 milligrams.
  9. Zinc is one of the components of testosterone, moreover, with its deficiency, the risk of developing or worsening prostatitis increases. The male body needs this metal for 15 milligrams a day.
  10. Selenium is necessary for the secretion of semen and testosterone. Up to 7 micrograms should enter the body daily.

How to fill the deficit?

Trace elements and vitamins for potency can be obtained through food, by increasing the amount of certain foods or special preparations in the diet. However, the best results can be achieved by combining both methods, which explains several circumstances:

  1. So far, it has not been possible to develop a complex drug that can serve as a full-fledged food substitute. In addition to vitamins and minerals, food contains many other substances and nutrients that the body needs.
  2. Certain organic compounds in food are contained in negligible amounts. It is almost impossible to ingest enough food to meet your daily needs for such vitamins.
  3. Some vitamins are found in natural products in a form that is poorly 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 a way to store on the shelves often look attractive, but at the same time they are poor in vitamins and microelements.
  5. Consuming enough food to meet your daily needs for one substance can provide an excess of other vitamins.

Erection problems are caused not only by a lack of trace elements and vitamins, but also by a number of other pathologies and psychological disorders. Also, the reason may be in severe overload - in this case improvements in the work of the reproductive system can be noticed after a good rest. In this regard, every man suffering from sexual weakness should be examined by a specialized specialist.

It should be borne in mind that hypervitaminosis is no less dangerous than lack of nutrition. Increased content of some compounds can lead to dangerous pathologies.

If the test results show that the cause of erectile dysfunction in men lies in vitamin deficiency:

  1. Recommendations for daily diet are given - the diet is built up with increased amounts of seafood, beef liver, nuts, fresh herbs, vegetables, berries and fruits.
  2. An appropriate vitamin-mineral complex is prescribed. In addition to the name of the medicine, your doctor must tell you the exact dose. As the condition of the reproductive system improves and the balance of vitamins and minerals is established, the daily intake of vitamins is reduced or the drug is switched to a lower concentration of active substances.

Improvement in erection is usually seen within a few weeks of starting treatment.
