Foods That Help Men Live Longer

By Steve Stone

Here are five healthy foods for men. Regularly eating them will ensure you're on your way to a longer lasting, healthier life.

Tomatoes. This fruit contains a powerful nutrient called lycopene. This has been shown to be beneficial in preventing prostrate cancer in men. To see the complete health benefits of it the tomatoes should be condensed, so go for either tomato juice or tomato sauce (without additives or sugar) as opposed to whole tomatoes.

Oysters. This superfood is a superior source of protein that is perfect for helping to build lean muscle. They also provide omega 3's and zinc (which many men are known to be deficient of), and aid in testosterone production.

Brazil Nuts. Nuts in general are a great nutrient snack full of fiber, healthy fats and protein. However, Brazil nuts stand out from the others in that they are packed with selenium, a mineral that is crucial in antioxidant production to fight off disease. Eating just a single one will give you your RDA of it.

Broccoli. There is considerable evidence pointing towards the anti-cancer benefits of this superfood. It's full of minerals and antioxidants that both clean your blood arteries and maintain strong and healthy cells

Flaxseed. Flaxseeds are an ideal source of nutrients, healthy fats and fiber and they help the body get rid of toxic compounds. For your body to absorb the full health benefits of them they must be ground prior to consumption. Once ground they can be added to shakes, cereal and oatmeal.

There are of course other healthy foods for men but the ones listed here are a good start. Begin by increasing your consumption of these, and then add additional healthy foods to your regular diet month by month. - 17268
