      Oysters and shrimps in seafood all have aphrodisiac effects, but experts remind that seafood aphrodisiacs can also damage male Yang Qi, other foods can also damage male Yang Qi, so men should eat less.

      1. Seafood, please eat in moderation

      Although there are many foods and drinks that do not feel low in temperature, according to the classification of traditional Chinese medicine attributes, most of them are cold in nature, such as seafood. Among seafood products, except for fish, shrimp, abalone, etc., a few are warm in nature, while most are cold, such as crabs, clams, oysters, etc. Therefore, for seafood such as crabs, firstly, you should not eat too much, and secondly, you must dip it in ginger juice when eating, and use the warmth of ginger juice to limit its coldness. Some people will have stomach pain when they eat crabs. The reason is that the cold nature of crabs damages the stomach yang.
