Chances are you do what you can to take care of yourself and keep everything in good working order. You know that you should be eating plenty of fresh fruit and leafy green vegetables and get regular exercise in order to keep fit, boost your energy levels and increase stamina – all of which can come in pretty handy between the sheets. But even if you think you’re being as healthy as you can there might be some things you’re doing which are putting a dent in your game without you realizing it.
Do It Yourself, But Do it With a Mask
Men who enjoy home improvement might be putting themselves at risk without realizing it. Old stone and cement walls as well as anything with caulking from the 1960s and 70s may contain dangerous levels of Polychlorinated Biphenyls (PCBs). These nasty little particles were used all over the construction world until they were banned in the late 1970s. Exposure and inhalation of PCBs has been linked to cancer as well as problems with the reproductive, immune, nervous and endocrine systems. If you regular roll up your sleeves and do home improvements on an older home, make sure you wear a dust mask and get a shower as soon as you’re done. Limiting your exposure to these chemical nasties will reduce the risk of developing serious health risks later on. If possible have areas likely to contain them completely remodeled – just be sure to do it safely.
How the Grass Grows
If you’re more of an lawn guy, be sure your lawn obsession isn’t exacting a price in the bedroom. Lawn treatments can contain a number of chemicals that can hurt your sex life, not to mention your health. Chlorpyrifos, for example, was a common organophosphate ingredient in lawn treatments until it was banned by the EPA in 2002. Turns out that little ingredient was linked to lower testosterone levels in men. Although it was banned, there are still plenty of other chemicals still being used regularly on lawns all over the country. Another reason why it might be a good idea to give organic gardening and lawn care a try.
Tune Up Your Bike Seat
Whether you ride a bicycle or a Harley, make sure your seat isn’t causing a problem. Narrow or especially hard seats can put pressure on your perineum, the area between your testicles and your anus, more commonly referred to as the ‘taint’. Pressure in this area can lead to serious sexual dysfunction, including problems with erectile dysfunction.
Impulse Buying
Make sure your late night buying sprees aren’t just an investment in trouble. If you’re in the market for a male enhancement device such as penis extenders or other penile enlargement devices, make sure you do your homework. It can be easy to get swept up in convincing, high pressure sales copy but make sure you look around at penis enlargement reviews on other independent websites before plugging in those credit card numbers. There are plenty of websites that offer male enhancement advice, tips and reviews on every product imaginable. Do your home, shop around and you won’t be throwing money away.
Masturbate
If you really want to have fun while doing something good, take the time to masturbate regularly. Regular bouts of self pleasure can help lower your stress levels, bring down your blood pressure and, according to many researchers, can even reduce your risk of prostate cancer. Regular ejaculations help promote prostate health and can keep you healthy. Regular masturbation can also help you build up stamina and better control over your own orgasms.
Even when you try to follow a healthy lifestyle there can be things which damage your health even though you don’t realize it. These hidden dangers can put a real damper on your sex life as well as your general health. So whether it’s doing DIY with a little more smarts or doing your homework before buying a penis extender, taking the time to deal with hidden dangers can improve your health and boost your sex life.
