Are Erectile Dysfunctions Related to Diet And Lifestyle ?
Posted: 10-22-07 05:54am

I have a quick question about my erection problems. Heres the scenario:
When masturbating 50% of the time I am not full erect and I have no idea what it is - I'm only fully hard when I'm masturbating to porno. About 2 years or so ago (before I started drinking/smoking) my penis seemed to be bigger but since I'm on the smokes/drink I don't seem to be gaining as much of a boner. So my question is, does Erection problems have anything to do with diet and generally being fit (as I once was)? How can I get back to have rock hard erections?

Thanks guys

Oh it definitely can have to do with your diet/lifestyle. Drinking and smoking, especially, will reduce not only your erections and cardiovascular health but also cause you to feel less sensation when you are masturbating or having sex. Anything that improves your cardiovascular health will improve your erections. If you try to fix your diet and drinking and smoking, and you still have this problem, you should see a doctor.

Your diet has everything to do with everything, and it's not just smoking and drinking.

Every single cell and body part in your whole body absorbs everything you consume (eat, drink, breathe, etc.).

So certain foods & certain supplements + a decent workout routine (even 10 minutes of focused fast walking or running a day is phenomenal) + plenty of water = killer sex drive with an uber hard on.

You have to know what is going to work though, because there are a lot of garbage "health" foods out there.

Thanks alot for the advice BuildABetterLife. I already workout 5 times a week for approximately 30 minutes so I guess it's up to me now to start eating and drinking healthy.

Regarding health and lifestyle risk factors, those who experience emotional or stress-relatedproblems are more likely to experience sexual dysfunctions.

Basic lifestyle recommendations: stop smoking, less drinking alcohol, sleep more, eat good balanced food and respect your partner. Combine that with good exercise.

if you are a diabetic or have any chronic disease - visit a doctor.
