The physical and psychological causes can lead to male impotence. Male impotence is the inability of a man to get or maintain an erection for satisfactory sexual intercourse. This condition is often associated with physical disorders such as diabetes, thyroid disorders, nervous system disorders, disorders of the urinary tract and genital disorders. Male impotence may also be associated with anxiety, stress, guilt, embarrassment or depression. The condition is aggravated by the excessive consumption of alcohol or caffeine and smoking.
Men suffering from impotence should stop or at least reduce their caffeine intake. So they have to control smoking. Caffeine and nicotine contribute to the constriction of blood vessels and decrease blood flow to the penis.
studies have suggested that men with high levels of cholesterol in the blood are much more likely to suffer from impotence. The high level of cholesterol partially blocked arteries by reducing blood flow to the penis. To avoid high cholesterol, your diet should include fruits, vegetables, whole grains and contains only a small amount of lean meat. You should also make sure to eat foods low in saturated fat.
Foods rich in zinc such as oysters, can act as powerful aphrodisiac although evidence to suggest that cases are very limited. However it was shown that a diet deficient in zinc can lead to impotence in men.
Research has suggested that zinc supplements can improve virility by keeping the level of the hormone testosterone to normal.
If you suffer from impotence, you will need to include good amounts of zinc in your diet by eating seafood, lentils, beans, soy, lean meats and wheat germ. You can also take zinc supplements.
