Erectile dysfunction, also known as impotence, is the lack of ability to maintain a acceptable erection to carry out intercourse and ejaculation.
Some erectile dysfunction causes
Reduced testosterone level, which can be treated with hormone therapy
A side-effect from some medications, including meds for depression, heart disease, high blood pressure and epilepsy. How many drugs does this cover? How often do we hear about another drug and another side effect?
Kidney, heart disease, diabetes, or hardening of the arteries can cause erectile dysfunction.
Overuse or abuse of drugs including alcohol, tobacco and recreational drugs.
A possible side-effect of some medical procedures, including prostate or urinary tract surgery. How often have we seen this before?
First of all, good blood flow to the penis is essential for erections. High levels of cholesterol and fat in your bloodstream leave deposits in the walls of your blood vessels. This leads to atherosclerosis and contributes to high blood pressure, both of which can damage blood vessels and reduce blood flow. Exercise helps lower cholesterol and blood pressure. A diet low in fat and cholesterol also helps to prevent and reverse the buildup of fatty deposits in blood vessels.
Some research suggests that ginkgo may be useful in erectile dysfunction, due to their ability to stimulate blood flow to the penis. In one study of 60 men with impotence due to poor blood circulation demonstrated a 50% success rate after 6 months. In addition, some research suggests that ginkgo may be useful for impotence caused by drugs in the Prozac family as well as other types of antidepressant medications.
Alcohol in moderation may lower inhibitions and help to set the mood. However, when consumed to excess although it may heighten desire it definitely impairs sexual performance.
Chocolate contains a compound called phenylethylamine that triggers the release of dopamine a chemical that is also released during orgasm. As a result chocolate can promote feelings of euphoria and enhance pleasure.
Chilies can stimulate the nervous system, which in turn may accentuate the sense of sexual arousal. This may be achieved through the release of endorphins in the brain.
Ginger is believed to have a similar stimulant effect that improves circulation to the genitals.
Honey is rich in the mineral Boron that helps the body utilize the hormone estrogen.
Oysters may be good for you after all. Their magic powers however have nothing to do with their appearance. Instead it is their zinc content, which is valuable. Zinc is essential for production of testosterone and zinc deficiency may cause prostate problems in men. Healthy zinc levels are also vital to maintain sperm counts.
Soy is credited with benefits in combating the effects of PMS and Menopause in women and may help improve vaginal lubrication by better utilizing estrogen. Soy is also believed to promote prostate health.
There may not be any magic concoction to produce an intense libido. Many factors besides what we eat can affect our sexual desire and performance. However, the evidence seems clear -Maintaining a generally healthy diet and supplementing it with certain foods in moderation can have a positive impact on sex life. I hope this addressed your erectile dysfunction issues.
