Vegetarians' eating habits will lead to their insufficient intake of protein, which will directly affect their sexual life in their later years. Studies have found that men who absorb too little protein will also have low testosterone secretion, which will directly affect their sexual ability.
Eating vegetarian food affects people's sexual desire.
Older men and men who eat vegetarian food have been warned by the medical profession that a low protein diet will affect their sexual desire in the future.
According to foreign reports, researchers say that people who don't eat enough protein are at risk of lowering testosterone, which will lead to decreased sexual function, muscle loss, red blood cells loss and bone damage. People who don't eat meat are particularly at risk, because animal food is the best source of protein with high biological value.
Vegetarians and strict vegetarians choose not to eat animal food, and the elderly eat less meat than when they were young because they lost their appetite and had difficulty chewing. Researchers have found that a low protein diet leads to an increase in the sex hormone adhesive hemoglobin among the elderly, thus reducing the effectiveness of testosterone.
The researchers investigated the hemoglobin of 1552 men aged 40 to 70, and found that the intake of protein and fiber was closely related to the level of sex hormones.
