1, oysters are good for men
First of all, oysters contain a lot of zinc, which can improve men's reproductive function.
100 gram of oyster contains about 9.39 mg of zinc, which is an element that men cannot do without. Zinc can promote the liquefaction of male sperm, promote the secretion of gonadal hormones, prevent and treat prostatic hypertrophy and promote the maturity of reproductive organs. Therefore, zinc is also known as "flower of life".
Secondly, in Chinese medicine, oysters enter the liver, gallbladder and kidney meridians, which can subdue yang and tonify yin and calm the nerves, and are suitable for men to tonify kidney. It is also mentioned in "Materia Medica of Seafood" that oysters can "tonify kidney and strengthen vital qi, stop night sweats, relieve fever, treat typhoid fever and phlegm, and nourish and soothe the nerves." Therefore, men can also use oysters to tonify the kidney.
2. The efficacy of oysters
(1) Qianggan Jiedu
One of the functions of oysters is to strengthen the liver and detoxify. Liver glycogen of oyster exists in muscle and liver, which stores energy, and is closely related to cell division, regeneration and activity of red blood cells, which can improve liver function, enhance physical strength and relieve fatigue. The higher taurine contained in oysters can promote bile secretion, effectively eliminate neutral fat deposited in our liver, and improve the detoxification of the liver.
(2) Blood stasis purification
We call blood that is very viscous and difficult to flow congestion in Chinese medicine, which is the root of all diseases. Low liver function will lead to congestion. If the cholesterol in blood is high, taurine in oyster can effectively promote the decomposition of cholesterol in human liver, so excretion will increase, and the cholesterol content in human blood will decrease accordingly. According to the above, we can see that the efficacy of oyster has a good preventive effect on arteriosclerosis caused by blood stasis, and myocardial infarction, cerebral infarction and stenosis caused by it.
(3) Improve sexual function
Oysters contain a lot of arginine and trace element lead, which are indispensable for sperm production. Arginine is the main component of sperm production, and lead promotes the secretion of hormones. It is particularly important to note that every time a man ejaculates, he will lose1-2 mg of lead. If lead is insufficient, the number of sperm will decrease and sexual function will also decline.
In addition, selenium is also an indispensable trace element for sperm production. Although the central nervous system of erection and ejaculation is above the spine, the operation of the spine is closely related to vitamin 12. Therefore, eating oysters can improve sexual function. Male diseases, such as sexual dysfunction, impotence, prostate enlargement and sexual organ hypoplasia, are caused by lead deficiency in many cases. Therefore, it is suggested that male friends with decreased sexual function should eat more oysters.
(4) improve immunity
Oyster is called "milk in the sea", and it is rich in excellent protein, liver glycogen, vitamins and minerals, and contains more than 18 kinds of amino acids, which can be used to synthesize glutathione. After eating oysters, glutathione is synthesized in human body, which can remove the active acid in the body, improve immunity and inhibit aging. At the same time, lead can not only inhibit cell aging, but also promote metabolism.
(5) promoting metabolism
My hands and feet often feel cold, especially in winter. Even when I get into bed, my hands and feet are hard to warm up, and even I can't sleep well. The amino acids, lead and other minerals and vitamins contained in oysters will improve blood circulation, and women's enemies, hypothermia and hypotension will also be improved.
3. How to choose and clean oysters
Oysters have high health value, but modern marine pollution is serious, and eating unclean oysters will endanger health. At the same time, oysters are easy to contain sand and are easy to wash.
1. Choose oysters
First of all, oysters are evenly selected, and the meat is light yellow, and it is best that the surface is dry and reddish brown. Secondly, the mouth of fresh oysters is closed, while the shells are opened after cooking. If the mouth is still closed after cooking, it is a dead oyster.
Step 2 wash oysters
To clean oysters, the sediment on the shell should be cleaned first, so as to prevent sand from entering the interior. Just use a brush to clean it. Then mix the flour and the drained oyster evenly, so as to better absorb the impurities on the oyster. If it is fresh oyster meat, which easily contains impurities such as sand and shells, vegetable oil can be added before cleaning, which can play a lubricating role and prevent impurities from sticking to oyster meat. Then put it in clean water for simple cleaning.
3. Precautions for eating
Oyster is a kind of seafood, which has many nourishing functions, but there are also some food precautions. First of all, in addition to allergic people, people suffering from skin diseases, spleen and stomach deficiency and diarrhea should not eat. Secondly, oysters can be eaten in many ways, but not raw. Modern marine pollution is serious, and oysters can't escape, and eating raw can easily lead to parasites entering the body. Therefore, any food, even if it has more health care functions, has certain taboos.
