10 Home Remedies for ED They Aren't Telling You About!

Ever wonder what is a natural remedy you can do at home to help with ed? Stay tuned and find out.

This podcast is for you. The Modern Man I'm Dr. Anne Truang, your host. I'm an intimate health medical doctor and best selling author of the book Erectile Dysfunction Fix. I'll do a deep dive into sexual health and performance and how it affects men of all ages and backgrounds. So let's get started and be sure to visit my website@sexualhealthformenpodcast.com for more information and resources from the show. See you on the inside.

So what are the natural remedy you can do at home to help you with ED without medication, without surgery? Stay tuned and I will go over that with you. So things that you can do at home and changes in your lifestyle that will improve your erectile dysfunction. Number one, if you are smoking, quit smoking. Because smoking decreases blood flow because it narrow down the blood vessel that goes to your penis. So smoking stop because there's no such thing as a little smoking. If you smoke two cigarettes, it's the same thing as smoking. It's like there's no such thing as being a little bit pregnant. I know it's hard. My mother suffered with smoking. She quit many times and had fallen off the bandwagon. Unfortunately, it ended up killing her with a massive heart attack at the age of 59. And it's scary to me to think of that and just know that smoking do decrease blood flow and that if you continue to smoke, don't expect your ED to to get better. Number two, lose weight. Yes, I sound like a recorder saying the same thing over and over again. Blah blah blah blah blah like you hear other health practitioners. But you know what? Sometimes it just comes down to the simplest thing, which is keeping your waistline somewhat reasonable. If you're a man, you should shoot for a waist below 42 inch. If your waist below 42 inch and your BMI is less than 30, there's more likely chance that you will have less ED compared to a man that has a waist of 42 inch and a BMI more than 30. And how do you maintain a good weight is to eat a Mediterranean diet and at least walk or do some type of activity 30 minutes a day or maybe three hours a week. You don't have to do a lot. I'm not saying doing CrossFit or playing basketball for a whole hour, just some type of activity is better than none. Even just walking outside for 30 minutes a day. I know I sound like everybody else, but sometime the basic do work this beat buying that $800 device that you think will help you with your ed. And we all want something simple, but always comes down to the basic what worked, which is keeping a healthy weight. Number three is doing pelvic floor exercises or Kegel, which is contracting those muscles that are in between your scrotum and your anus and those muscle, the muscle that actually help you with your urine, those muscle responsible for orgasm as well as ejaculation. And they're often ignored and oftentimes men do it wrong. And believe it or not, when men with ed, their muscles in the pelvic floor sometimes are more tight, more spasm than they should be. So the key is to sometimes relax it more. So I often would recommend that you go see a pelvic floor specialist, PT therapist that can help you out with this. Number four, adopting a healthy sleep schedule. Get at least seven hours of sleep at nighttime, particularly from 10pm to 6am because that's how your body heals and that's how you make more testosterone when you sleep. So if you compromise your sleep, you're not going to make enough hormones and your body won't heal. Number five, getting help. If you're taking illicit drugs, like illegal drugs, and if you're drinking a lot of alcohol, meaning you can drink alcohol but should moderate it to less than 10 drinks a week, which is more than a drink a day. And if you're taking a legal drug that's going to hamper your sex life. And we do know that too much alcohol will cause you to have a whiskey dip and too much alcohol will compound the problem more. And alcohol is very inflammatory to the blood vessels at this time. Number six, look at your medication. Oftentimes the medication you're taking for high blood pressure and the medication you're taking for high cholesterol and even diabetic medication can actually affect your erection. So I know you have to take the medication because you have those conditions. But if you try losing some weight, you just 10% change in your weight will actually decrease your blood sugar remarkably. And even 10% changes in your weight will actually decrease inflammation more than you think will also improve your ed. So if you're saying, well, how can I get off the medication? Well, you can get off the medication by maybe losing 10% of your weight. Number eight is practicing good oral hygiene. Take care of your gums, floss and use a non fluoride toothpaste, non fluoride mouthwash because fluoride kill the bacteria in your mouth and you need the bacteria in your mouth to make nitric oxide. Nitric oxide brings in more blood flow and you need more blood flow to go to the penis so you can have an erection. And number nine is reducing stress level. Yes, stress level tend to increase your cortisol, cortisol tend to increase inflammation. And then cortisol will also dampen all your testosterone. And when you have inflammation, low testosterone, you have decreased blood flow. So I suggest you use yoga or meditation, breathing, exercising or even just going outside, enjoying the fresh air and being the mindset of being grateful. Number 10, last but not least is do your penis pumping with the penis pump. When you do penis pump, it's like taking your penis to the gym. And taking your penis to the gym. You keep the penis muscle healthy, you bring in more blood flow into there, preventing some muscle atrophy the penis. So do your pumping at least three times a week. So those are the 10 things that you can do at home as natural remedies without medication, without surgery. Yes, there's only one device that I recommend and that is the penis pump. And you can get the penis pump right here, my modern man crib. And it's an electric pump. So you can use it in the water and you can use it outside the water. And the frequency I recommend is three times a week. So I hope you find this helpful. And if you just do all this or even half of this, you will see an improvement in your erection. You may see more firmness, you may see more rigidity. You may even notice morning erection as well too. And just know that doing something is better than doing nothing. And sometimes it's the most basic thing of all that goes a long way. I'm a big proponent of using natural approaches and using things that you can do at home to help yourself with Ed. Don't go for that shiny object, $800 device or expensive treatment. Try these treatment at home first before you seek other more expensive treatment. Yes, there are other treatment that doctors can do to help with ED, but institute the 10 recommendations first and see where you're at. And just note if you have ED to get your blood work done as well too. Those blood work can be done in your primary care office. Get your red blood cell count or CBC and get your CMP14, which look at your liver and your kidney. Get your cholesterol level checked and get your testosterone level checked as well too. That is the beginning. So having said that, I hope you find this helpful and that you like. Share comment on my channel.
