Odds are, you have a general idea of which foods are extremely healthy.
But how about foods that men, in particular, should eat daily?
Whether you’re 25 or 45, eating a nutrient-dense diet is crucial to staying healthy, lean, and strong.
For men, this means eating three well-balanced meals every day.
In this video, we will be exploring the 5 superfoods males should eat to ensure that they’re in tip-top shape.
You’d be surprised by how much the ordinary foods actually pack the most health benefits, such as eggs (and we will be covering more on that in this video so keep watching).
1. Spinach
Dark leafy greens like spinach are a powerhouse when it comes to health perks.
Rich in magnesium, eating spinach daily decreases inflammation in blood vessels, which in turn, increases blood flow.
And for men, blood flow is everything.
That’s because improved blood flow drives blood to the extremities.
As a result, this enhances arousal and makes sex more pleasurable.
Aside from better sex drive, healthy blood flow is also important for exercise and heart health.
Some studies even said that this veggie is linked to better cognitive function for men.
2. Mushrooms
Surprised? Albeit a surprising addition, mushrooms are a good source of potassium, which helps low blood pressure and offset the adverse effects of excess sodium.
In fact, one portobello mushroom carries more potassium than a banana.
Not only that but it’s low in calories and contains cancer-fighting antioxidants in the form of vitamin E and selenium.
Together, these two components fight free radicals in the body, reducing cancer risk and other fatal diseases.
3. Tomatoes
Tomatoes are known for having generous amounts of lycopene, an antioxidant known to reduce cancer risks.
Men, in particular, benefit more from eating foods high in lycopene like tomatoes because it can help protect them from prostate cancer.
Aside from prostate cancer, lung and stomach cancer can also be prevented by regularly eating tomatoes.
Also, studies have shown that tomatoes can improve sperm morphology or shape.
Men with the highest tomato intake had 8 to 10 percent more “normal shaped” sperm.
4. Eggs
Looking for a way to remain healthy while also helping build your muscles?
Prepare to stock up on eggs, then.
This humble old food is rich in protein and contains high levels of lutein, which helps boost brainpower.
Specifically, the yolk of the egg carries several types of vitamins and over half of the protein.
This combination of nutrients is great for eyesight, as they contain carotenoids that protect the eyes against age-related decline.
Additionally, it has been shown that eating at least one egg a day can significantly reduce your chance of getting a stroke later in life.
5. Whole grains
Generally, whole grains like quinoa have numerous health benefits.
But when it comes to men, eating it regularly is linked to a lower risk of colorectal cancer.
Men have more chances of developing this type of cancer than women.
According to research, consuming around 90 grams of whole grain foods a day can reduce the risk of colorectal cancer by 17%.
