Zinc is one of the best minerals for the male reproductive system. For starters, zinc is potent enough to influence a man\u2019s fertility, sex drive, and overall sexual health.\u00a0On the flip-side, zinc deficiency can cause impotency, lower testosterone levels, and increase the risk of prostate cancer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Erectile Dysfunction\u2019s Relation To Zinc<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Erectile dysfunction (ED)<\/a> is one of the most common sexual problems that men have to deal with. We know there are a host of different causes of ED, ranging from nutritional deficiencies to clinical depression. That said, recent studies found that ED is a common symptom of zinc deficiency. When levels of zinc<\/a> fall below the recommended threshold, problems begin. Researchers discovered that low zinc is a known culprit in cases of hypogonadism, masculine growth and development during puberty or enough sperm or both, and impotence.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The body cannot store excess zinc, which means that continuous dietary intake is necessary. The body can maintain zinc levels within skeletal muscle, skin, and heart if zinc intake is insufficient. However, zinc levels in bone, testicles, liver, and plasma begin to decline without regular zinc intake. It is unfortunate that many adults do not get enough of this mineral that occurs naturally in many different food sources. If you don\u2019t get enough via your diet, supplementation is always a viable option, but you may want to discuss the dosage of zinc with your doctor first. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Zinc For Men<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s important to understand that when it comes to men, zinc brings an array of benefits to the table. According to several studies, zinc works to enhance sperm production and support prostate health. While men need zinc for a range of reasons, specifically in regards to testosterone maintenance<\/strong>, men especially need it for their thyroid function. According to one study, an excess or deficit of thyroid hormones can alter testicular function, including semen abnormalities. Not only does zinc deficiency directly affect the male reproductive organs, but it also indirectly affects them via the thyroid and the hormones it produces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When a man ejaculates, he loses zinc, as it is present in semen. So that he can enjoy a powerful ejaculation again and again, and because his body needs zinc but cannot produce it, it is important to replenish after ejaculation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
