Impotence is a common male dysfunction, and it is also a problem that any male does not want to see. For the prevention of impotence, experts say male friends can appropriately supplement folic acid.
Folic acid has been widely used to prevent fetal neural tube development defects and is a special supplement for pregnant women. However, the latest research shows that folic acid is also a good thing for men to "strengthen their yang", especially for erectile dysfunction (ED) in men with diabetes.
Folic acid is not only an indispensable auxiliary enzyme in the metabolism of fat and amino acids in the human body, but its main function is to assist in the production of red blood cells and prevent their degeneration. However, some medical experts have pointed out that low folate levels in men can lead to a decrease in semen concentration and sperm vitality. A recent experiment on diabetes rat models taking folic acid showed that foods rich in folic acid can improve cavernous body function, eliminate internal oxidative stress, and play a therapeutic role in ED.
Experts say that most andrologists use drugs such as "Viagra" when treating ED. This study shows that patients should also properly supplement some folic acid, which is beneficial for treatment. Moreover, folic acid is non-toxic. Tests have shown that there are no reports of toxicity when doctors give 150 mg of folic acid to children and 450 mg of folic acid to adults every day. As a water-soluble vitamin, when taken too much, excess folic acid can flow away from the body, but taking too much can mask symptoms of vitamin B12 deficiency.
Experts suggest that men who like big fish and big meat may suffer from nutritional imbalances if they consume too much high protein and eat too little vegetables and fruits. Eating vegetables rich in folic acid is very important for improving the complications of diabetes. For the sake of male health and becoming a true man, one should have both fruits and vegetables and meat.
