Nutrition in semen-loss in ejaculation

How is it ignorant? The human body replaces and repairs things all the time. As long as you live, you will not run out of semen. Think of how this substance is created to begin with. How was it created? Chemically from what we ingest. If it's reabsorbed, it's just being broken down into its constituent components again for use elsewhere in the body or excretion. Not wasting it (i.e. - allowing its resorption) will prevent your body from having to replenish the chemical stock from foods/supplements we ingest, but the body is still well capable of creating it regardless (unless, for some reason, we're malnourished - but that's another topic).

 

Its a fact that science SAY that porn is bad for you. Obviously you cant trust someone about this when they say masturbation is good for you. IT is all about orgasms and dopamine ITS PROVEN that it is therefore it is real just like 2 + 2 = 4. Im not saying your not losing nutrients when you ejaculate because you do but not enough to cause damage to your body. And yes it does take at least 2 days for semen to build up. Explain wet dreams then.

 

People! Effects are probably really from the brain. Balls function fine, brain reward circuit system is the reason for everything physical.

And despite all this, just Nofap and you'll feel ther benefits. day 6 lol feels awesome.

 

You tend to forget that SPERM IS A CELL THAT COMBINES WITH ANOTHER CELL WITH A PAIR OF GENES AND IT STARTS GROWING nothing fancy or special. Oh and you should STOP working out because you can lose nutrients!!! and stop walking around to or type.

 

The pseudoscience is STRONG in this thread lol.

 

True- but then again, hunch got us here on the first place. No doctor tells us to stop porn. But we all somehow know it's still really bad. Pseudo-science seems to win occasionally.

 

Enumerate what was pseudo.

 

There is no empirical scientific evidence that proves that "nutrients" lost during ejaculation cause detrimental effects to ones health, and or cannot be replaced with proper nutrition. I'm not saying that there is no truth to the claim, especially if you are ejaculating 3 or 4 times a day...just that the science is not there to back it up.

 

Very true. Often times in the gym meatheads will be well above the curve in regards to what "works" long before extensive tests have proven them right and scientists/doctors start to accept new benefits of sups/methods.

 

I think I sort of said that. There's no reason to be inhospitable to those who disagree on this point, however.
The bottom line, overall, is that we need to quit fapping. As men, we spend far too much time doing it.

 

"Western" science (which, science should just be science without regional connotation) doesn't preach masturbation is ok to your heart's content. There's a ton of science on sexual compulsion and masturbation being unhealthy. However, there is a thinking that non-excessive/compulsive masturbation in an otherwise mentally/sexually healthy person is normal and ok.

Where do the nutrients that make up semen come from?

Why would scientists not want you to know these things? They're not profiting from the pleasure industry, generally speaking.

Testosterone is generally not effected by ejaculation through masturbation. It increases during sex.

Sorry you feel this way. This is the internet. You're not going to find any forum where everyone will agree with your point of view 100 percent of the time.

 

I'm well aware of science being science. You'll note I said Western scientists. That means people, not the actual body of fact that should comprise science itself. Additionally, far from all science is settled. There was a time when pellagra, for instance, was vociferously believed to be caused by microbes, rather than by B3 deficiency. So whatever facts actually exist, there are still things unknown to even the best scientists.
And if you follow the allopathic medical profession at all, you'll know that the accepted "science" is that masturbation is just fine and dandy. In fact, there are some reputable articles out there that, while perhaps not stating it directly, make masturbation seem like a supporting foundation for good health.

 

I agree. Science is never settled. Scientists don't believe in proving ideas to a 100 percent certainty. There's always room for further further questioning.

So, of course. That's why good science is so important.

As I stated above, masturbation in an otherwise healthy person at a rate considered "normal" is accepted as healthy among most medical professionals. I don't disagree with this sentiment, either.

 

Not only that, but the Western medical establishment would seem to generally be more concerned with keeping a steady stream of customers (i.e. - patients) than it would be in totally rectifying problems. Completely healing people isn't a profitable proposition for the pharmaceutical industry, which tends to drive all other aspects of the medical system.

 

Sounds a bit like a conspiracy theory to me.
