American scientists have found that during the last twenty years in the blood of American men has been steadily declining testosterone levels. In 1988, the testosterone levels in men 65-69 years has averaged about 503 nanograms per deciliter (ng / dL), and in 2003 – already 423 ng / dL. Reasons for reducing male hormone is not clear. Neither age nor disease nor smoking, nor excess weight can not fully explain this phenomenon.
The study’s authors believe that men of different generations in blood testosterone levels may vary. For the study, researchers compared blood samples taken from men 1987-1989, in 1995-1997 and 2002-20004, respectively. At the same time take into account the age and health status of men. Normally, testosterone levels increased to 25-30 years, and then slowly decreases. Since testosterone levels are associated condition potency, libido and ability to bear children. Therefore, this fact is regarded as alarming.
Pickle or Pickled ( salted )cucumbers are the national Russian dishes. Very tasty and healthy men. Russian witch has long recommended salted cucumbers for the treatment of prostatitis, to increase male power. Recipes salting greatest of many and some clever that it is very hard for a delicious pickle, urged to adhere strictly to the recipe. However, nothing in it is not difficult if you stick to the classic Russian recipe salted cucumbers. And cucumbers are crisp and the taste is excellent and the brine in the morning in handy!

Dear Dmitry, you’re so often wrote about the possibility of breathing exercises in the treatment and prevention of prostatitis and impotence, based on some kind of oriental theories of energy. And that says this official science?
Igor
Dear Igor! Breathing exercises in the conventional therapy of prostatitis is secondary, however, as other diseases. Although some experts still recommend the use of the potential respiration, but the emphasis on making use of vehicles. While more convenient, accurate and efficient in my opinion the most appropriate to perform breathing exercises. We now turn to the comparative analysis of techniques of breathing and traditional methods.
Hypoxia – the use of low oxygen in the inspired air. With the help of a special apparatus in the inhaled air reduces the concentration of oxygen. The body, after several sessions begin to stimulate blood circulation in various organs, including the prostate. Due to this improved local immunity, decongest in the prostate.
As a result, we obtain the so-called endogenous respiration. This principle is built breathing simulator Frolov and his ilk. Frolov – a living legend, a man who managed to rid himself of the bouquet of diseases and reduce the body temperature by 1 degree Celsius, which resulted in the excitement of Japanese scientists. You can buy a simulator Frolova, and you can do yourself. Moreover, the exercises with a similar effect is sufficient in yoga, qigong, tai-chi. This exercise is more characteristic of the internal styles.
They can perform on the move, standing. necessary to control breathing. For example on the go. Stretch every phase of breathing: inhale four steps, four steps pause. Four Steps exhale. Four Steps pause. Total of 16 steps per cycle of breathing. This is a start. According to this principle and work. 15-20 minutes per day lengthen the time of each phase. is a cycle where the delay is twice longer than the inhale and exhale. 4-8-4-8. So no Frolov, or modern health, nothing new is discovered.
Hyperbaric oxygenation – an increase in oxygen content in the media of the organism. Achieved at the expense of the oxygen masks, cocktails and techniques of breathing. This method is bactericidal effect, eliminates swelling of tissues, including and prostate, has anti-inflammatory effect, increases the recovery of tissues, eliminates intoxication, etc.
Here in the practices are also many options. It may be a work in kihon in karate. There is even a special kata – a goal that hyperbaric oxygenation. Such things exist in any form of external martial arts styles, and even more so in the internal styles. You see, where the emphasis on breathing and with a loud exhale, focus on the breath, this is the same.
So I think the official views of medicine and oriental do not contradict each other. However, the latter is much deeper investigate the area of breath, can more fully reveal the potential of man.
- Dmitry, you have repeatedly referred to the useful effect of pollen, but about vitamins as if in passing. Do not they help men? I like the doctor has prescribed vitamin E. Improving felt. Gregory
- Dear Gregory accept the remark, but partially. First, not everything at once. Indeed vitamins are essential for health, and men in particular. Moreover, on the site preparing section inside the pill, which will be systematized materials on the importance of vitamins, hormones, enzymes. But, again, slowly. Not all at once.
Secondly, in pollen also contains essential vitamins including vitamin E and D, carotenoids, flavonoids – are important for male health. So bee pollen – a complex of vitamins, created by nature itself.
Thirdly, it will focus more on the importance of vitamin E. Vitamin E is the common name for a group of biologically active compounds-antioxidants. It prevents cell damage caused by oxidation of polyunsaturated fatty acids in cell membranes. Roughly speaking, this is – a defender of the cell. Due to this property, it slows down the aging process, reduces the risk of diseases associated with the formation of free radicals (active compounds that arise in the process of metabolism and their ability to cause an excess of dangerous diseases), including some forms of cancer, stroke, heart disease, atherosclerosis. Since a number of factors provoke an increase of free radicals in the body (smoking, poor ecology, disease, ultraviolet radiation, and high electromagnetic background radiation), the growing need of the organism and antioxidants. Also, vitamin E provides extra protection against bacteria.
It is therefore understandable that a healthy cell, clean body – the basis of health, including and male. Adverse factors that encourage the growth of free radicals we have plenty, so extra vitamin E and improved the condition. Now the main thing on my mind in the application of vitamin E – doses and sources.
How much vitamin E? The recommended daily dose ranges from 2 to 15 mg depending on age, weight, sex and country (in different countries, different recommendations). vitamin deficiency leads to damage to the nervous system (brain cells are destroyed in the first place as it is known). In prophylactic treatment, many recommend increasing the daily dose of vitamin E up to 75-300 mg, ie several times, ten times more. This dose can only get in using drugs vitamin E. But is it worth it then? Not worth it for these manufacturers of dietary supplements and pharmaceuticals. Maybe. In my opinion, much more correct to reconstruct their diet to vitamin E was in abundance, the more completely natural sources. Food with vitamin e
First – this vegetable oils (olive, corn, sunflower, etc.). Not accidentally, many manufacturers take you directly to the label «contains vitamin E». If anyone was interested in folk healing methods, many of them contain a recipe as a device on an empty stomach or vegetable oil alone or with something together. That vitamin E and is the old way. To the extent a nice big spoon containing 3 mg of vitamin E – by Western standards almost daily rate for adult women. So try to switch to vegetable oils. Note that the country’s traditionally high consumption of vegetable oils (Italy, Greece, France, etc.) is less prevalent cardiovascular disease. Yes men healthier than the country’s push towards the animal fat. The same is true in the case of Russia – in the South of Russia in many families it is vegetable oil is the base ration and better health and longer life expectancy.
In addition to vegetable oils and their sources (seeds, olives, peanuts, almonds, etc.), vitamin E is also found in sprouted wheat, cereal and whole grains, etc. In short – it is available in its natural state.
I would also like to note that vitamin E alone is not a panacea for the diseases that would not talk about its wonderful properties of the distributors of dietary supplements. It just improves the overall background, struggling with the negative factors, the disease he can not win and therefore should be used in combination with other means. The same applies to the treatment of prostatitis and impotence. On a diet for prostate, I wrote on numerous occasions.

The hormone testosterone is called «gasoline» men. Low levels of testosterone in the body is fraught with impotence and infertility. In addition, use of drugs that increase levels of testosterone, a long time already become one of the methods in the fight for medals in professional sports. Doping control is precisely designed to identify drugs that stimulate the production of male sex hormones.
Hormone therapy helps in some cases to restore reproductive function, but the pharmacology, based on chemistry – a double edged sword. Artificially high levels of testosterone with the help of chemical agents sometimes jeopardizes the health of men and athletes. Meanwhile, there are enough resources of natural origin.
Paramount importance for human nutrition. There are products stimulate the production of testosterone, but is that stimulate estrogen, the female sex hormone.
To begin with alcoholic beverages. Alcohol in small doses stimulates the production of hormones. But there is particular.
Pure or diluted ethylene – vodka, alcohol and beverages containing alcohol derived from grapes, apricot, mulberry, etc. – Natural wine, brandy, vodka, chacha, etc. stimulate the release of testosterone. Then, as the products of fermentation (beer, el) stimulate the production of the female hormone estrogen. In addition, hops added to beer by itself inhibits the production of testosterone. Results of long-term use of these types of drinks are often affected in the figure on the areas of fat deposits on the feminine type.
The situation is similar with the products. Great importance for the hormonal status of man is the quality of protein consumed. Animal proteins are full and contain all the essential amino acids, in contrast to the proteins of plant origin. Therefore it is very important for men to eat meat and how it is more natural, the less fat the better. This fact is well illustrated by the history of civilizations. Largest empire created people consuming meat. Most impressive was the empire of Genghis Khan’s warriors who were fed exclusively on meat. His soldiers were distinguished courage and fearlessness. In contrast, civilization, prefer vegetable food all the time fighting for liberation, such as India.
With fish and seafood is more complicated. On the one hand seafood contain zinc and other substances, has a positive influence on men’s health. On the other hand, not all seafood and meat is far not all fish contain complete proteins. However, it was some seafood as a stimulator of testosterone out of competition. For example, the meat of some species of sharks (for those who live in Australia). Scientific fact – the earthly creature, possessing the highest level of testosterone is the male roundnose sharks.
Upset supporters of vegetarianism other scientific fact. For vegans one of the main sources of protein are legumes. However, it was beans contain fitoestrageny, ie compounds resembling the female genital organs. They are especially numerous in soy. Therefore, those who engage in bodybuilding, I would not recommend to use the protein from soy, benefit from it will not. And why should not men eat sausage, sausages and other semi-finished products contained a lot of soy.
In general, the diet should be balanced and contain enough high-grade protein, vitamins and trace elements. Some vitamins – vitamin E, vitamin B, vitamin C – especially important for testosterone production, just as zinc and selenium (trace).
With regard to plants, stimulating testosterone production, then out of competition here are adaptogens: – Aralia Manchu, devil’s high, Eleutherococcus senticosus, Rhodiola rosea, Schizandra Chinese, zhentshen and some others.
Russian healers Experience shows that a good showing the roots of crucifers: parsnip and horseradish. Slightly weaker than the root of parsley. Not for nothing horseradish called Russian ginseng. Personally, I am an ardent supporter of horseradish.
There are other plants stimulate testosterone production, many of them ekszoticheskogo origin. But I would like to emphasize particularly creeping Tribulus Tribulus terrestris L. On the basis of Tribulus created a lot of preparations stimulating and returning potency. One of them – Tribestan, which for its natural hormonal properties like athletes.
There is a much simpler product-cheaper in the form of alcoholic extract of Tribulus – Tribusponin. It is noteworthy that the agricultural producers of South Russia as a valuable plant is considered to be weeds, contaminating plantations, orchards, vineyards, meadows and pastures. Besides valuable vegetable raw materials affects the quality of animal feed. In high doses, Tribulus poisonous, so the warning southerners in a position to procure Tribulus own – consult with your doctor!
From bee products on testosterone positively influence pollen and ambrosia (perga). It is understandable – pollen represents the male sex hormones of plants, which are collected by bees. Ambrosia (perga)- this is nothing like modificed pollen. Therefore pollen also found its application in sports nutrition and in the treatment of prostatit, infertility and impotence.
Thus it turns out that to maintain the level of testosterone are many natural products. And yet I can not mention the lifestyle. Bad habits, bad environment depress overall hormone levels in general, and testosterone in particular. Conversely, exercise leads to its increase. Especially useful for strength training, running, martial arts – that is, those types which are realized male qualities, honed over the millennia. And if you disappear for days at a computer in a smoky room, and with a beer, there will not save you, nor Tribestan, or flower pollen. Will help for some time, and then things will go back to square one. You either need to change their way of life, or use them constantly.
