Essential fatty acids are important for maintaining the normal physiological functions of the body, can promote development, have a protective effect on the skin, and have a hypotensive and lipid-lowering effect.

Drink black soy milk

Menopause is caused by reduced hormone secretion. When men around the age of 50 enter menopause, as the level of androgens decreases, bone mineral density values also decrease. At this time, fractures are more likely to occur.

Black beans are not only rich in calcium, but also contain more lecithin and saponin. Lecithin can reduce "bad cholesterol" and prevent arteriosclerosis. Saponin has a strong antioxidant effect and can effectively prevent cancer and obesity. Fry black beans and sesame separately, crush them in a food processor, and then drink them with milk or soy milk, so that their nutrients are more easily absorbed by the body. Middle-aged men drink a cup of black soy milk before breakfast or dinner every day to achieve the purpose of effective calcium supplementation.

Its nutrition is 5 to 6 times that of apples and 4 times that of grapes.

Decreased libido is also a symptom that appears after most menopause. In principle, the sexual life of middle-aged men should not be excessive. Otherwise, the body will age too quickly, but it cannot be without sex, or the ability to produce semen will be reduced. As long as the sexual life is normal, neither fatigue nor too little can be felt.

Therefore, you should eat more foods that can improve and enhance gonad function. Because the improvement of gonad function can radically reduce the symptoms of menopause. Foods with such effects are: mutton, shrimp, sheep kidney, sea cucumber, fish belly, loach, sparrow, leek, walnut, sesame and so on.

Exercise therapy

First, choose the project that suits you

Menopausal men should choose systemic activities in which all joints and muscles are active, such as walking, jogging, tai chi, swimming, qigong, and health gymnastics, etc., so that head and neck, trunk, upper and lower limbs can be fully trained. It is not advisable to do strenuous exercise with excessive strength and speed, such as sprinting, jumping, belching, upside down, and rolling.

Second, we must control our exercise volume

The amount of exercise consists of the characteristics of exercise intensity, time, density, quantity, and sports. How is the amount of exercise and whether it is appropriate?

Usually after exercise, the body feels a little warm, sweating slightly, no fatigue, feeling relaxed, comfortable, appetite and sleep are good, it means that exercise is appropriate and the effect is good. If you feel dizzy, chest tightness, shortness of breath, nausea, poor appetite and sleep after exercise, and have obvious fatigue, it means that you are exercising too much.

Third, we must persevere and persist

Exercise is about persistence. Only by recognizing the importance of fitness can you make up your mind and overcome lazy habits. Otherwise, not only will the results of exercise be lost, but the body will not be able to adapt to sudden movements, causing accidental injuries. Especially people with poor health and heart disease should pay more attention.

Fourth, pay attention to how you breathe

Inhale during exercise and breathe freely, because air is inhaled through the nose, nose hair can block dust, and the nasal mucosa can adjust the temperature and humidity of the air. At the same time, breathing should be natural, because the pressure in the chest cavity during belching is large, which is not conducive to blood flow to the heart.

Fifth, we must strengthen physical self-observation

During exercise, be good at self-discipline, pay attention to your breathing, blood pressure, pulse, and self-feeling after exercise to prevent adverse reactions. And regular physical examinations in order to adjust their own exercise methods and improve exercise results.
