In this solo podcast episode, Dr. Anne Truong, a sexual‑health physician and author of Erectile Dysfunction Fix, explains why men who have been taking Cialis (tadalafil) may notice the medication losing its effect. She argues that the loss of efficacy is rarely due to the drug itself and is instead a sign that the underlying physiological causes of erectile dysfunction (ED) are progressing. Dr. Truong outlines the primary contributors to poor penile blood flow—high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes, weight gain, excessive alcohol, smoking, and recreational drugs—and stresses that Cialis only boosts nitric‑oxide‑mediated smooth‑muscle relaxation in the penis without addressing systemic vascular health. She then presents a step‑by‑step “root‑cause” plan: adopt a Mediterranean diet, engage in regular aerobic exercise, obtain adequate sleep, and reduce stress. She promotes a free Mediterranean‑diet guide, a “Good Morning Wood” smoothie recipe designed to improve circulation, and a structured program called “Get Wood Now Boost.” Dr. Truong also advises listeners to obtain comprehensive medical evaluation (blood work for cholesterol, glucose, red‑cell count, testosterone) and to consult a physician when Cialis stops working. The episode concludes with calls to subscribe, leave reviews, share on social media, and access additional resources such as her book, website, and the Get Wood Now program.

I'll do a deep dive into sexual health and performance and how it affects men of all ages and backgrounds.

Hello there, modern man. If you're taking Cialis and it suddenly stopped working, this video is for you. I'm going to show you who this really happened to, what actually is going on inside your body, and how to fix it step by step so you can get your performance back. I'm Dr. Ann Truong. I'm a sexual health medical doctor. I've treated over 7,000 men with ED to help them restore function again without medication or even without surgery. So when Tadalafil or Cialis stop working, it's almost never that the drug itself has lost potency. It's usually a change in how it's used and that your body is changing physically. It means that your underlying disease that caused you to have ED is progressing. The main point is that it's not the medication, it's not working. It's really your body is not responding as much. So that means that whatever is causing your ED either is poor blood flow from inflammation and other factors such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes. Weight gain is affecting the blood flow from your heart to your penis. So that is the most important thing, is that when you're taking Cialis or Tadalafil, it's not addressing the cause of the problem, which is usually due to poor blood flow, because Cialis doesn't make your high blood pressure better, doesn't lower your high cholesterol, doesn't help your diabetes, or doesn't even help you lose weight. All Cialis does is increase nitric oxide. So that way you get more smooth muscle relaxation in the penis muscle and more increasing blood flow. But it doesn't increase the blood flow outside of the penis or fixing the whole blood flow overall in your body. So in order for you to understand it, you need to know that you need to fix the root cause of the problem in the first place. And it's usually things such as high blood pressure. How do you lower your high blood pressure? Well, exercise and lose weight and follow the Mediterranean diet. Mediterranean diet is recommended for people with diabetes and with people with heart disease. When you eat a Mediterranean diet, you also lower your cholesterol. You also lower your blood sugar, which is what diabetes is all about. And when you follow the Mediterranean diet, you also lose weight. So click the link below for you to get a free copy of the Mediterranean Diet. Mediterranean Diet just focuses on eating fresh fruit, lean meat such as chicken, pork, fish and a lot of vegetables on your plate. Okay Modern man if you're struggling with weak erection, low energy, the food you eat could be the big part of the problem. One of the best research back ways to boost circulation, support healthy testosterone and improve sexual performance is the Mediterranean Diet. It's packed with food that open up your blood vessel, lower inflammation and fuel your hormone naturally. I've seen men notice real improvement in both energy and erection within weeks when they shift to this style of eating. So check out this Mediterranean Diet link right here below and get that as soon as you can. Stronger testosterone and better erection. So this is how you fix the root cause of what's causing your ED. Mediterranean diet and then also exercise 30 minutes at least three to four times a week. It can be involved such as walking. You can also add on their sleep for at least seven hours at nighttime as well. So just know that Cialis stopped working because the problem inside of your body that is causing the ED has never been addressed. So over the years the root cause is progressing. So it's like your car is making sound and it's smoking, but all you're doing is just painting on the outside to make it look good. But over time the car is going to stop working because you're not addressing why there's smoke coming out. So same thing with your body. You're not addressing the root cause of what's causing your edge and therefore it progresses over the years. And I have seen patients that this will happen to within a couple of years, some maybe over a few months. Even so, it is something to know about and to understand that when you're taking Cialose or Tadalafil, it is just a band aid, it is not treating the root cause of the problem. And also know that you can treat ED naturally with diet, exercise and sleep and stress reduction. But I also want to mention that alcohol, more than 14 drinks can also add to the mix as well. And recreational drugs and smoking, if you're doing any one of those, you probably need to stop or decrease the amount of consumption as well. Men struggling to stay hard, most of the time it comes down to poor blood flow. That's why I put together the Good morning Wood Smoothie, a nutrient packed blend designed to restore blood flow naturally. My patients often notice improvement in just a few weeks when they take this part of their daily routine. Click the link below to get the recipe and start boosting your blood flow and firmness today. Or go to good morningwoodsmoothie.com I want to make this very clear that Tadalafil or Cialis work for a while, but when it doesn't work, that's when you should be worried. So that's when you need to go see the doctor. Get some blood work done to see what your cholesterol level is, your blood sugar level is, your red blood cell count. Check for your testosterone level first and see how you're doing. Get a checkup and then if you are have a good clean bill of health then that's awesome. But most likely the doctor is going to find something through blood work so that is the first thing you need to do. So I hope you find this helpful. I hope I answered the question for you. It's as simple as that sometimes, isn't it? But just know that you do have choice, that you do have alternative beside taking medication, that the medication is just a band aid guys. It is not the fixing the root cause of the problem. It's only going to get worse. So I hope that you find this helpful.
