What types of male preventive health care products are there

The men's preventive health care products currently circulating in the market are essentially divided into three general directions according to the health problems they prevent: basic nutritional supplements, targeted organ protection, and functional adjustment. However, there is no "must-eat list for men" spread online. What you choose depends entirely on your own living habits and health risks.

Last week I went to the drugstore with my 32-year-old Fa Xiao who works as a back-end developer. He stayed up until 2 o'clock every day and took out fried chicken and rice bowls. Recently, he always felt heavy and tired. I stopped him when the clerk came and gave him an oral solution to replenish kidney yang. However, there have always been two schools of thought in the nutrition circle regarding whether to take basic supplements. One school thinks that as long as you can eat 1 catty of vegetables and half a catty of fruits every day, you will not be short of meat, eggs and milk. There is no need to take extra supplements. Taking too much will increase the metabolic burden on the liver and kidneys. I have a buddy around me who wants to prevent colds. After eating 1000mg of high-dose vitamin C every day, urinary tract stones were diagnosed after three months of eating, which was not worth the loss. The other group believes that most young people nowadays are 996, eating takeout and staying up late all the time. Appropriate basic supplements can indeed prevent the problem of nutrient deficiencies, so there is no need to be too contradictory.

If you are a man over 40 years old who always sits for a long time and likes to hold in his urine, he will probably be afraid of prostate problems. The corresponding health products on the market are lycopene and pumpkin seed oil. There is also a lot of controversy about the effects of these. Last year, I saw a controlled experiment in the men's department of a tertiary hospital, saying that supplementing 10mg of lycopene every day for a year. The incidence of prostate hyperplasia is 30% lower than that of the placebo group. There are also studies that say there is no difference between the two. My dad has been driving a taxi for 20 years. He always got up at night for the first two years. He took the pumpkin seed oil soft capsules that a friend brought from Australia for half a year. He said that he did get up less often. I don’t know if it is a psychological effect or it is really effective. Anyway, I didn’t cause any problems, so I just took it for peace of mind.

As for maca, arginine, and oyster peptides that are now popular in live broadcast rooms, most of them are based on the gimmick of "increasing energy and improving function." When I was working out last year, I bought two cans of maca powder in order to improve my condition. I drank it for half a month. There was no change in my acne breakouts. Later, I asked a sports nutritionist and found out that this type of product has only been proven by research to slightly relieve physical fatigue. The so-called improvement of sexual function is all marketed by merchants. If you really have functional impairment, you need to go to the hospital. Taking health supplements is useless. There are also men who have a family history of cardiovascular disease and like to drink and eat heavily. They will buy high-purity Omega-3 fish oil and coenzyme Q10. This type of oil is really supported by clinical data and can help regulate blood lipids and prevent cardiovascular problems. However, it is only effective if you buy medical grade with a purity of more than 90%. The kind of no-name brand that costs tens of dollars for a large bottle has many impurities and the effective content is not as high as eating two salmon bellies. It is pure and pays the IQ tax.

In the end, all health care products only have a preventive and auxiliary role and cannot replace medicines, let alone regular work and rest and a healthy diet. Don't think about staying up late every day, drinking alcohol and eating late night snacks. You can make up for it by taking two health care products. If you really feel uncomfortable, go to the hospital as soon as possible. Don't waste your time by taking health care products.
