4 habits that kill your male organ, No.3 will shock you
A lot of men today are challenged with various types and degrees of some form of infertility or impotence due to certain routine habits. Below are some major habits that cause infertility and other reproductive problems in men.
1. Not eating watermelon for a long time.
Watermelons are one of the best sources of citrulline-arginine, an ingredient that helps the body’s sexual function to improve. It boosts the levels of nitric oxide in the body and even treat erectile dysfunction. It is better to increase the intake of watermelons in everyday diet, since lack of citrulline-arginine in the body has adverse reproductive problems.
2. Excess alcohol consumption.
Drinking large amounts of alcohol can make it hard to get or keep an erection. This is called erectile dysfunction (ED). Alcohol interferes with the messengers in the brain that tell the male organ to be filled with blood. It also reduces the production of testosterone. Testosterone is the hormone that controls male sexual functions. Drinking heavily over a long period of time leads to a lower libido.
3. Not brushing the teeth frequently.
The connection seems bizarre but research showed that if men had erectile dysfunction, the chances of them having gum disease was very high. Gum disease is seven times more common in men with ED. This is because bacteria in the mouth can travel through your body and can impact the blood vessels in your penis.
4. Smoking cigarettes.
According all health studies,cigarettes are known to affect sperm quality as well as general reproductive health. However, smoking is not only clearly harmful to your overall health, but regardless of exactly how many cigarettes you smoke a day over time, the effects will eventually spread to a lowered sperm count.
