Why Men Should Prioritize Walnut Consumption
The health benefits of walnuts are widely proclaimed, yet it’s always helpful to discover additional, specific advantages. Men can reap many of these positive results from walnut consumption.
Improve Male Fertility
If you’re considering having a child in the future, consider the negative effect of an unhealthy diet on sperm production and the potential for walnut consumption to reverse these ill effects.
In a study of over 100 otherwise healthy men, adding walnuts to an otherwise unchanged diet produced better sperm production than men with a similar diet without nuts.
Other research indicates that walnuts lessen oxidative damage to sperm membranes, protecting them from harm.
Healthier sperm will make pregnancy easier to achieve and sustain –
something to consider in the months and years before actively trying to start a family.
Improve Sexual Function
Studies on male health and the effects of walnut consumption have also demonstrated a positive impact on sexual function for men. Incorporating walnuts into the diet produces greater sexual satisfaction and desire and improved erectile function.
Erectile dysfunction (ED) prevents men from getting or retaining an erection to complete intercourse. This condition is quite common, with around 30 million men suffering from the problem. The physical causes of this problem limit blood flow and include a sedentary lifestyle, stress, smoking, alcohol consumption, being overweight, and poor nutrition.
Studies suggest that walnut consumption will improve the dilation and contraction of blood vessels, lessening the potential for erectile dysfunction.
The Bottom Line
