Scientists have proven that vegetables are very beneficial for men. Even inveterate meat eaters should not neglect them. There are good reasons for this.

An interesting study was conducted by employees of the University of Western Australia. Scientists managed to establish that the consumption of certain foods affects men more than was previously believed. Mainly, it is about attractiveness to the opposite sex.

The idea to look for a connection between male attractiveness and red and yellow pigments, which are abundant in some vegetables, led scientists to the behavior of animals. It is known that females, when choosing a mate, are more attracted to males who have yellow, red or orange colors in their color. It turned out that the same is observed in humans.

The use of bright foods (rich in carotenoid pigments) affects the tone of the skin. It turned out that a slightly yellowish complexion is more attractive to women.

This was proven by human studies. The experimental group included 45 people, whose average age was 21 years. The men were subjected to a thorough examination. Experts noted the level of oxidative stress in skin cells, the state of immunity, sperm quality and a number of other things.

After that, the volunteers were photographed and divided into two groups. Representatives of the first 12 weeks ate supplements containing a lot of beta-carotene. The second were on a placebo.

At the end of the experimental part of the study, the men were re-examined and photographed. It turned out that the skin of those men who used the supplements acquired a slight red and yellow tint.

Then the second part of the scientific work began, in which women took part. Scientists showed photos of young people to 70 women (average age was 33 years) and asked them to rate the attractiveness of the volunteers.

It is noteworthy that those men who took beta-carotene seemed more attractive to women than those who did not take the supplement.

The authors of the study noted that the volunteers also looked fresher and felt great. This proved that vegetables are good for men. Therefore, scientists strongly recommend eating carrots and other vegetables of red, yellow and orange colors.
