12 Best Foods for Men's Health

Bones may be sturdy enough to transport us all day every day, but they are vulnerable to losing their strength if neglected. In this article, we’ll take a closer look at 12 foods that can strength your bones and put that spring back into a man’s step.

1. Eggs Scrambled or boiled - eggs can provide you with a bountiful supply of Vitamin D. This vitamin plays a key role in how well a man can sustain a normal level of testosterone in his blood. It’s recommend that you eat one egg per day, but those who have trouble with cholesterol should skip the yoke.

2. Garlic - With its powerful anti-fungal, antiviral and antibacterial properties, this anti-aging superfood can help you fight off illness and infections. Just add it to any of your favorite foods for a flavor boost.

3. Honey - Instead of reaching for sugar, choose a small spoonful of honey as a substitute. Add it to your tea, oatmeal or pancakes. Honey’s antioxidants can strengthen your immune system and help you win the battle when infections strike.

4. Watermelon - A juicy watermelon is a great summer treat, but it can also improve blood circulation and your entire circulatory system. Eat it as a snack, add to salad or whip up a sorbet.

5. Cauliflower - Adding a small amount of cauliflower to your daily diet can reduce estrogen while boosting testosterone.

6. Grapes - By eating a handful of grapes a day, a man’s testosterone levels will rise, and sperm activity will also increase. Additionally, the nutrients in grapes can slow down the aging process.

7. Oysters - Oysters are little vaults stuffed full of vitamins and minerals that enhance your heart’s health and boost your immune system. Just sprinkle a little lemon juice and salt to preserve their nutrients.

8. Meat - Too much meat isn’t beneficial for your health, but it does play a significant role in increasing testosterone levels. Just be sure to eat meat that’s organic and has come from a grass-fed source.

9. Beans - Beans can be added to most any side dishes, soups or salads. These heart-healthy foods also help men maintain normal testosterone levels.

10. Tuna - Vitamin D-rich tuna is good for your heart, but just remember to buy tuna that has not been exposed to mercury.

11. Pomegranates - Pomegranate juice is an excellent source of potent antioxidants, which can tackle free radicals before they can disrupt circulatory functions. Also, the International Journal of Impotence Research states that nearly 50% impotent men noticed their condition improved after drinking only one glass of pomegranate juice.

12. Cabbage - Men who eat cabbage ingest the chemical - indole-3-carbinol or IC3, which eliminates female hormones. A Rockefeller University study noted that men who consumed 500mg daily for 7 days saw their estrogen levels cut in half.
