This podcast is for you. The modern man. I'm Dr. Anne Truong, 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.
Do you know that there is a recipe to help you with your morning wood? If you haven't had a morning wood in a while and you wanted to come back, well, I have the secret for you on how it can come back is your diet. Your penis is what you eat, believe it or not. Say it as plainly as it can sound. Your penis function is what you eat. And it all come down to the carbohydrate or the sugar. Now there are good carbohydrates and there are bad carbohydrates. In the last episode I talked about inflammation and the bad food that causes inflammation because inflammation lead to poor blood flow. And the bottom line, if your penis not getting enough blood flow from your heart, you're not going to get firm, you're not going to get morning wood and you're going to lose it during intercourse. So the key is to restore more blood flow to the penis in order to get a firmer erection for functionality. So it's all about what you eat. And I keep saying this, it's all about the car carbohydrates. So let's look at some of the components. A carb or sugar matter that there are good carb and there are bad carbs. So if you're with me on YouTube or you're on the screen, the good carbs are called the complex carbohydrates and they're high in fiber. It takes longer for your body to digest it, so you burn more calories digesting the food and you want to eat a lot more of this. So the good carbohydrates are lettuce, spinach, arugula, beets, or even low carb tortilla and grated cheese, almond meal, pork rinds, mashed cauliflower, zoodles. If you don't know what zoodles are, it essentially cucumber or zucchini, even cauliflower that you just kind of cut it into thin pieces that looks like spaghetti. So you can put it through a machine that just cuts it like a linguine. So they're called zoodles. Or you can buy it already cut in the grocery store. So I shop at Wegman and they have that pre cut for me. And you can add grated cheese to it and you can add in turmeric and some ginger and some garlic. Delicious vegetable dish, zoodle. The next one is cauliflower rice. Now you can buy it already made. And what it is, it's really not a rice. It's rice made out of cauliflower.
But.
But they cut it so it looks like little pieces of rice and it tastes like rice. You can buy this actually at Costco. I've seen it at Costco in the frozen section. It comes in like large bags and you can get it out and then you can stir fry and add your favorite spices to it. I talk about turmeric and ginger being a healthy spice that you can add to it. You can google and get recipes for cauliflower rice. Next is sparkling water. Sparkling water is actually healthy, or even water for that matter. What you don't want to drink is sodas. Sodas are full of sugar. It just spike up your blood sugar and it's not good for you in the long run. And the last one is almond flour. So flours that are made out of refined flour is almond flour because it has more fiber. Now the simple carbohydrate or the bad sugar you want to avoid if you is because it has low fiber content, it gets converted to fat and it spike up your blood sugar. And then once you eat it in about two hours, you get hungry again and then you have a crash, you feel tired and you have lost a focus. Then you want to eat the best carbohydrates again. So what food are the bad carbohydrates? Those are the bread and breading on the either the protein or on the vegetable itself. You want to avoid breading. Potato chip. Believe me, I like potato chip too, and tortilla. But when I do want some, I eat like one or two and I'm done. One of my patients, what he does is eat it and just taste it and he spits it out. The other bad carbohydrate actually is mashed potatoes. Mashed potatoes are not good. Sweet potatoes is not bad, but just plain white mashed potatoes are not good. Definitely not good with the sour cream and butter and bacon on it. And the next one is pasta. Pasta is delicious, but it is simple carbohydrates and it spikes up your blood sugar and it's going to give you insulin resistance. Next one is rice. I like rice too, but does spike up your blood sugar. So you're like, oh my goodness, what can I eat? Well, you want to eat something like a Mediterranean diet that's focusing on more of the complex carbohydrates. Like I say, eat daily fruits and vegetables and nuts and olive oil and red meat. Like once a month you can have your sweets and eggs and fried food, but maybe once a week, but eat more fish and seafood. So let's go to the good morning wood smoothie. What the heck is that? That's what this episode is all about. Well, it's an ingredient that are anti inflammatory and also increases nitric oxide which then together will increase blood flow. That's what you care about, all about increasing blood flow. So ingredients is half a cup of fresh blueberries, 1 cup of kale or spinach or collard green chop and a quarter cup of fresh beets that are chopped. You can buy the beets in a can actually a lot cheaper. I've also seen it when it's in the refrigerated area in the groceries. Then you add in a cup of almond milk or coconut water or fresh squeezed orange juice. But if you're a diabetic, don't use orange juice. Just use the almond milk or coconut water or just plain old water and add in four to six macadamia nuts. Macadamia nuts are very high antioxidant. And one teaspoon of cinnamon. Cinnamon is also an antioxidant and you put it all in a blender, add a little bit of ice and you can put in a little bit of fresh berries on top and enjoy. It is all antioxidant and full of nitric oxide that will repair that endothelium and increase more blood flow from your heart to your penis. You keep do this with intermittent fasting, like when you break your fast in the morning around 11am Take this as a meal and don't eat until lunchtime or maybe late lunch. You can also drink this at night right before you start your intermittent fasting at 8 or 7pm and then you're good. It can be a meal replacement. You can add your favorite protein powder into it and that will be your either post workout smoothie. But it's a good morning wood smoothie because it stimulates more blood flow. I also have essential green powder which then can replace the vegetables and fruit that is listed in there that you just put a scoop of the essential Green powder and and a scoop of the nitrous oxide, put it in a shaker, shake it up and drink it. If you're on travel, you don't have access to fruits and vegetables at that time. So you can either do in a powder form, you can do it in real food form, but either way, do it. If you want to get a morning wood and remember it takes six weeks to become a habit. If you do it every day, I suggest you do at least once a day drink it as your first meal after you break your fast. We have seen patients see remarkable improvement with just instituting this along with intermittent fasting of 16 hours not eating. And we have seen they have started noticing morning wood again as well as getting more firmness with their erection. And I hope you find this useful. Let me know what you think. I would really appreciate if you like and subscribe and share this episode with someone that you care about that can use this good morning wood recipe and I will see you in the next episode and just know that you can live more, love more, and be happy.
