The oatmeal will protect against sexually transmitted diseases

In the new study by American doctors found that to cope with the negative effects of pathogenic bacteria can help to create a healthy food. Assistants under the supervision of Professor Richard Lam and Dr. Virginia mule from the University of Alberta found that in order to activate the body's defenses and help prevent sexually transmitted infection, you need a sufficient number of amino acids such as arginine.


As the researchers note, if in the body are harmful microorganisms and there is a risk of gonorrhea, syphilis, chlamydia, and other STDs, in a healthy person to the inflammation immediately rush the macrophage - specific cell killing germs and promotes natural self-regulation, the function of which is also great.




However, their work is, in turn, depends on the level in the body arginine, which, if not avoided, traditions proper diet does not come to man in the required doses.




The best food sources of arginine recognized products such as chocolate, raisins, oatmeal, corn, nuts and sesame. The researchers stress that the full validity of the experimental results so far, it is necessary to conduct further work in respect of this issue. But we can already assume that the high level of infectious diseases, including sexually transmitted diseases, observed, for example, in African countries, is associated with poor or inadequate nutrition.
