With abundant vital energy, men appear strong and charismatic. Men who are excessively depleted often appear listless, lacking any vitality, and devoid of masculine energy. Maintaining vital energy is not an easy task, as there are many behaviors in daily life that deplete vital energy and lead men to decline in their middle age.
There are rumors circulating that carbonated beverages can “kill sperm,” is this really reliable?
Obviously, there is no basis for this belief. As long as one does not overindulge, carbonated beverages can be consumed. In a previous experiment, it was found that tadpoles in test tubes with carbonated beverages had difficulty surviving, and their numbers decreased. This experiment led many people to believe that carbonated beverages could “kill sperm.” In reality, tadpoles have a short lifespan outside the human body, and even without carbonated beverages, their numbers would decrease. This experiment lacks credibility, and moderate consumption of carbonated beverages does not pose a significant problem. The real issue of “killing sperm” is something many men have not stopped doing.
As the ancients said, “Getting drunk and engaging in sexual activities, exhausting vitality, and dissipating essence,” meaning that engaging in sexual activities while intoxicated dissipates the body’s vital energy, affecting overall health. In actual life, many men enjoy alcohol to create a more romantic atmosphere, but this is not advisable. After consuming too much alcohol, the nervous system enters a state of numbness, making it difficult to self-control behaviors, leading to premature depletion of the body’s vitality. This can gradually reduce bodily functions, making it challenging to conceive a child. Additionally, excessive alcohol consumption can lower the body’s metabolism, hinder toxin elimination, affect vital energy, and make men appear weary and uncharismatic.
Irregular living habits are cited as reasons for men reaching middle age appearing feeble. Why do men age faster than women? Even before reaching mid-life, men experience significant hair loss and male pattern baldness becomes a concern for the youth, all due to excessive loss of vital energy. Inconsistent routines and late nights directly impact vital energy. Whether due to work or leisure, irregular sleep patterns and late-night habits disrupt metabolism, leading to excessive vital energy loss and compromised quality. Many men who stay awake also smoke or indulge in greasy late-night snacks, exacerbating the effects of staying up late. Even men who drink coffee to stay awake are affected by caffeine stimulation, compromising their health. To gradually restore vital energy and improve its quality, cultivating a regular sleep schedule and avoiding late nights is crucial.
The normal functioning of a man’s body is largely dependent on their “innate vital energy,” and to maintain this vitality and prevent excessive loss, men must rely on themselves. Taking supplements is ineffective, avoiding carbonated beverages does not guarantee quality, but the true solution lies in avoiding excessive alcohol consumption and maintaining a regular routine. Though seemingly small, these two actions continuously damage men’s health, and even abstaining from one can benefit the body and make men appear more masculine.
