Taking one tablet of Shilucon every day can generally meet the daily needs of vitamins and trace elements.
Among the nutrients related to reproduction, cholesterol, arginine, and zinc are the most closely related. Cholesterol is an important raw material for the synthesis of hormones, and it is most abundant in animal viscera. Eating a moderate amount of liver, kidney, intestines, and other viscera can not only adjust the taste of the diet but also increase the raw materials for hormones.
Arginine is the raw material for sperm production. Plant-based foods rich in arginine include frozen tofu, tofu skin, peanuts, soybeans, sesame, seaweed, peas, walnuts, etc. Animal-based foods rich in arginine include eel, squid, and octopus.
Zinc deficiency can cause testicular atrophy and decreased sexual function. Plant-based foods rich in zinc include peanuts, walnuts, oats, etc. Animal-based foods rich in zinc include liver, eggs, fish, meat, oysters, etc.
To maintain a balanced diet, it is important to develop the habit of not being picky eaters. If any deficiencies are found, timely attention should be paid to supplementation.
