Self-Pleasuring: Key to a Man’s Health

1. Self-Pleasuring: Key to a Man’s Health By John Dugan

2. Many guys wonder if self-pleasuring is healthy. Most have heard mixed reviews given the plethora of cultural and religious orientations toward the practice. As with most things, there’s a right way and a wrong way to go about self-pleasuring; it can be a perfectly healthy habit or a problem depending on how one does it. But there is plenty of reason to believe that it is not only safe, but actually beneficial to a man’s health – both in terms of male organ care and overall wellbeing. After learning about some valid concerns around the practice, men should take note of the health benefits self-pleasuring can reap. www.man1health.com

3. The Wrong Way • There is such a thing as too much self-pleasuring – but how much is too much has less to do with a number than with how it affects a man’s social and lovemaking life. If it’s getting in the way of either of these, then it’s too much. • Another problem some men have is reliance on very extreme visual aids; this can interfere with their ability to achieve sensual satisfaction – and possibly even tumescence – with an actual partner. • Finally, there’s the issue of overaggressive handling. If a man has chafed and sore skin on the regular, he may be implementing the dreaded “death grip” during his solo activity, and should develop gentler methods along with using lubricant. www.man1health.com

4. Health Benefits • For most men, self-pleasuring is a healthy practice. Along with flat-out feeling good, self-pleasuring can deliver the following benefits for physical, mental and lovemaking health: • It puts a guy in touch with what he likes: By experimenting with different rhythms, grips and areas of stimulation, men can learn a lot about their bodies. This knowledge can come into play while making love, improving a couple’s intimate life. • It boosts the immune system. After a man finishes, the hormone cortisol is released in his body. While high levels of cortisol negatively impact health, a spurt of it here and there helps to bolster the immune system. www.man1health.com

5. It improves mood. Self-pleasuring not only makes the male organ happy, but improves a man’s emotional state as well. That’s because it causes the release of oxytocin and dopamine, two neurochemicals responsible for good feelings. • It lengthens bedroom performance time. If a man pleasures himself shortly before a date, he’s more likely to last longer in bed, something many partners desire. • It may protect the prostate. Research isn’t 100% conclusive, but some researchers think that releasing rids carcinogenic substances from the body. One study found that men who released more than five times a week were one-third less likely to develop prostate cancer. www.man1health.com

6. It helps maintain performance function as a man ages. The pelvic floor muscles play a role in performance health. As men age, they lose muscle tone, and this may be responsible for performance dysfunction (as well as incontinence). Frequent releasing exercises these muscles, helping to ensure strong tumescence into old age. • Most men are thrilled to learn that one of the most enjoyable activities out there is also good for their health. As they should be! But men should be mindful of steps to keep the practice safe and healthy. • First, avoid the super hardcore visuals. Keep things a bit more realistic. • Second, use lubricant. A man’s delicate manhood skin needs to be protected from the intense friction unleashed upon it by the hand. www.man1health.com

7. Third, consider applying a male organ health crème(health professionals recommend Man1 Man Oil) every day. A cream with Shea butter and vitamin E provides dual protection against dry skin and soreness, and the inclusion of acetyl L-carnitine helps prevent the type of peripheral nerve damage that can occur from rough, frequent handling of the manhood. Man1 Man Oil also contains vitamin C, which can keep the skin youthful and radiant thanks to its ability to boost collagen production. Such a crème is an important part of keeping the male organ in optimal health, not to mention looking its best.
