Embrace Movement for Better Health
Professor Jiang Wanxuan from National Taiwan University has been an advocate for physical activity for over 50 years, famously stating, “Walking is key to vitality.” For men around the age of 50 experiencing a decline in sexual function, his first recommendation is simple: walk to work and avoid elevators for anything lower than the fourth floor. Aim for over 10,000 steps daily. According to Jiang, “Just three months of this habit can restore your sexual vitality to satisfactory levels.” The connection between the erectile nerves and lower body motor functions is critical. To achieve strong ejaculation, it is essential to ensure the abdominal and leg muscles are capable of powerful contractions. This serves to explain why some individuals feel weakness in their legs post-coitus.
Relax, Relax, and Relax Again
Stress is one of the most significant threats to middle-aged men. Under pressure, the body tends to tighten up, leading to an increase in adrenaline levels. This surge can result in blood vessel constriction, increased heart rate, and elevated blood pressure. The rise in adrenaline has detrimental effects on male erectile function. For an erection to occur, blood vessels need to relax enough to allow blood to flow into the penis. However, when adrenaline levels spike, blood vessels narrow, leading to erectile dysfunction.
Cultivate Curiosity
It is essential for men to maintain a sense of wonder and curiosity about life. As pointed out by Jiang Hansheng, president of the Taiwan Male Medical Association, when middle-aged couples find their sexual experience becoming a bit stale, introducing sexual fantasies can be beneficial. “Fantasy is one of humanity’s most beautiful gifts from the divine, especially during times of physiological decline. It serves as a means for self-exploration and rejuvenation.”
Three No’s: Avoid Staying Up Late, Smoking, and Drinking
Dietary supplements are often more psychological than physical. Items like deer antler or tiger bone have similar nutritional content to regular meats and do not offer any extra benefits. Nutrition can be equated to the value found in two to three eggs, with no real advantages from these exotic products.
Importance of Wellness
As the saying goes, “Three parts medicine, seven parts nurturing, and ten parts prevention.” This highlights the critical nature of maintaining one’s health. Many believe that wellness practices are only necessary for the elderly; however, wellness is a journey that everyone should begin as early as possible to reap its numerous benefits. By taking proactive steps towards a healthier lifestyle and staying engaged in physical activity, individuals can greatly enhance their quality of life and sexual health.
