Men and women are different, so is health care. Traditional Chinese medicine says that men's health depends on food supplement and women's health depends on sleep.

The following is the difference between keeping in good health (www.dgsnbbs.com): Male: nourishing yang.

Men's tonic is mainly to protect yang, because men are under great social pressure and are prone to losing yang when they are tired. It is suggested to choose a suitable diet according to one's physical fitness.

A major focus of men's diet should be "nourishing kidney essence". Because the kidney governs the storage of yang, the yang of the human body comes from the kidney and provides power for life activities, so we should eat more foods that tonify the kidney and produce sperm. According to reports, Chinese wolfberry, Chinese yam, chestnuts, black sesame seeds, lotus seeds and other foods have kidney-tonifying effects.

A big difference between men and women is that men have a large proportion of muscles and women have more fat. From a nutritional point of view, men should pay attention to adequate intake of high-quality protein, because muscles need protein to provide energy. At the same time, protein can also help to produce sperm and improve fertility. Men should also ensure the daily supplement of trace elements such as zinc and selenium.

The risk factors harmful to health in men's sexual life are much higher than those in women's, such as smoking and alcoholism, so "anti-oxidation" should be another major focus of male dietotherapy. Men can eat antioxidant nutrition properly. Meanwhile, some natural antioxidant foods are as effective as nutritional supplements. Grapes, tomatoes, mustard and cauliflower, as well as hawthorn, garlic, vitamin C and vitamin E all contain natural antioxidants.
