I have ED. What do I need to do? The answer to it is pretty simple. You'll be surprised because when you have ED, treat it like as if you have chest pain. When you have chest pain, you go to the doctor, you go to ER, and you get it addressed, right? Well, ED is your body warning you that you have blood vessel problem or blood flow problem that precedes Heart problem. So studies have shown that men that has ED, 46% of them actually have some type of heart attack in 5 years. So it's your warning sign. It is your red flashing sign that your body is having a blood flow issue. And that's what the word for that is called cardiovascular disease. So I want you to treat your ED as if you're having chest pain. You don't want to try to treat it yourself because ED is quite complex. And it involves from the brain all the way down to the nerve, the hormone, the heart, the blood vessels, and then the penis. So it involves multiple systems, multiple steps that are going on. I understand that ED is a personal thing. It is somewhat embarrassing to talk about. And studies have shown that only 1/3 of men actually talk about it with their doctor. I get it. It's something personal you don't want anybody to know, but I want to stress to you guys that you want to treat ED as if it's chest pain. Okay, so what's the first thing you should do? You should go see your doctor, and if you don't want to go see your doctor, you need to get blood work. First thing you need to do is to get blood work. Now let's get to the definition of ED. What is ED? ED is defined as the inability to maintain an erection To satisfaction. So with that broad term, it involves desire, arousal, orgasm, all the way to finishing. So the whole breadth. So it's not just whether you get an erection or not. It involves from the brain all the way to the penis. Okay. And persistent, meaning if they've been there for at least 3 to 6 months, so much that it bothers you. So that's what ED is. And you can still have ED when you can get an erection. What if everything you've been told about fixing performance issues, it's backward? No pills, no surgery, just a medically proven path to getting your confidence and edge back for good.

I'll see you there. The reason why you have ED is either, is there a blood flow problem, usually due to high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes? Is it a nerve problem? Is it a hormone problem? So is it hormone, nerve, blood vessel problem? And then is it a structural problem with the penis? And those are the things that I think about when every time I see a man with ED, what's causing your ED? 90% of ED is Due to physical causes, and about 10% is due to psychological causes, which is usually due to stress, depression, anxiety, trauma that involve in processing of arousal signal up here to transmit through the nerve and the heart. So an erection actually starts in the brain, not in your penis.

Interesting.

start in the brain. And if the brain is distracted, then signal's not gonna go down to the heart and then eventually to the penis. Okay? So the bottom line is you have ED, get blood work. You don't wanna go see the doctor. You can actually get your blood work by going to the lab and requesting it. And I actually will create a checklist that will be available so you can check it out. The next video that we're actually producing, and you can go to the URL whattoedoed.com. To download that checklist. So whattodoed.com to download the checklist.

You don't have to be passive about it and try not to take medication without knowing why you have ED. Just know that even though 90% of ED is physical and 10% is psychological, but after a physical component is there, For a while, then there's going to be a psychological component mixed into it as well. Quick note before we go any further.

Even when you can orgasm but you're not firm, you can still have ED. So ED does not mean inability to get an erection. ED can be a partial erection or finishing early or inability to orgasm.

Okay.

Treat it like chest pain. Don't try to go to internet and try to buy this supplement, this gadget, and so forth, because you don't know what is the root cause of that. Treat ED like chest pain, treat ED like a problem in your car. If your car is not starting, or is it making noise, you know, you take it to the mechanic and you get it diagnosed, right? You wouldn't be driving it on the road until it breaks down on the road. So you need to know the cause of your ED first. I commonly get the question, what do I do for treatment for ED? Well, first of all, you have ED, get it addressed. Don't try to treat it yourself. First, by getting blood work. You can go to the doctor and get blood work, and you can actually get blood work on your own. You can actually go to LabCorp and request for blood work. You can go to LabCorp, you can go to Quest, as long as you have insurance. If not, even those labs have self-insured charge as well, cash charge for those that doesn't have insurance. So what labs should you get? So you should get a blood sugar test and you should get what's called a CBC, complete blood cell count. You request for chemistry 14, which involves blood sugar, involves your kidney function, as well as your liver function. And you should also ask for cholesterol, fasting lipid panel. And when you get the blood work, make sure you fast. For 12 hours. You want to check your cholesterol and then your hormones. You want to check for your testosterone. You want to check for total testosterone and also free testosterone. Get your blood work checked. That's number one and make sure it's fasting. And number 2, be honest with yourself. What is your weight? If you're overweight, for a man, your waist is above 30 or you can do a BMI, which is body mass index. If your BMI is—

40.

Over 30, I mean, you're overweight. And you can find that equation on the internet for BMI. So if you're overweight, you need to get on the Mediterranean diet and start exercising 30 minutes at least every other day or 3 to 4 times a week. And then also stop smoking if you are smoking, and that's including inhaling cigarettes, tobacco, chewing tobacco, as well as probably vaping because they do have nicotine. And you probably should stop porn as well because porn messes up with your brain desire and arousal processing. Just start doing that. The recent studies have come out that tai chi is actually good for cognition. And I wonder if that's good for also vascular as well too. Exercise and get enough sleep, like 7 hours of sleep. And you start with that and you'll be amazed at the change. Studies have come out that show that diet and exercise together beat Viagra and Cialis. It is even effective in those that Viagra and Cialis does not help. And, but it beats it as well too, because ED medication, Viagra and Cialis, only help in about 70% of men. 30% do not respond to it. But exercise and doing a Mediterranean diet is helpful for everyone. You start doing that, These are important. So you can get the copy of the Mediterranean diet at eatfornoed.com. You get the Mediterranean diet. I give you everything that is included in there, and you can download that for free. So the main point is there are things that you can do for ED now. Last thing you want to do is to take a medication. I know when you go to the doctor, first thing they're going to do is give you a medication. Well, you shouldn't do that. It's like When you have pain, you don't want to take a pain medication, right? Because that's just covering up the symptom. It's a Band-Aid that's going to get you in trouble later on. Because you take medication, your body's gonna think that it needs to have medication every time you have an erection. And you want to have a natural erection. You don't want to have an erection with medication on there. 30% of men do not respond to the medication anyway. And so men just don't know that ED is reversible. By just making lifestyle changes, just the diet and exercise and stopping some things. You don't know that, right? And you're not going to find that on the internet. And that's why I created this channel, Truong Rehabilitation Center. That's why I created the Modern Man Club. It's a space where you're in community of other men that's going through the same thing that is coached by us and expert that will give you the guidance on how to get back your erection again without medication and guiding you to the right path.

It's not something you're going to talk with your best friend about, right? 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-backed ways to boost circulation, support healthy testosterone, and improve sexual performance is the Mediterranean diet.

I have to be honest with you, you put in the work, the supplement will work, the penis pump will work, everything will work. So check it out. Go to Modern Man Club at NoEDMan.com. You will get the roadmap on how to get out of ED naturally. And this is no gimmick. We've seen thousands of men get results from this, and I've seen it work myself. Now, we do have treatment in the office for more severe cases that will need more boosting with stem cells, like your own stem cells, to boost more blood flow, to really restructure the penis again because it's been years without having an erection. So for more involved cases or severe cases, We would use your own stem cells and would also use Botox to help relax the penis muscle and use your own stem cells to build more blood flow in the penis. The Botox is injected into the penis to relax the muscles so that way it can have an erection again. And then shockwave therapy, what it does is that it takes all the blockages out of the penis to open up more new vessels. And then we also do electromagnetic therapy, which is to clear up all the toxic stuff out and around the penis. We also do far infrared treatment, which increases parasympathetic nervous system, which is the nerve that will give you an erection. And we actually reset the nerve so that way the parasympathetic nervous system is activating for erection again. We also give you a Kegel machine. That you can put the electrode in the pelvic muscle area to stimulate it because those muscles, those pelvic muscles that are actually right underneath the scrotum right here, they're small muscle, they're in triangle shape. And if you stimulate it with the Kegel machine, what it does is that these muscle goes around up here and it goes around the base of the penis and it helps Keep the blood in the penis to give you a firm erection. If those pelvic muscles are weak, then it doesn't work like kind of like a rubber band at the base of the penis, and then blood will kind of come out. So it's very important. Those pelvic muscles, they're small and mighty. So we choose small muscles. They're small and mighty. They help with erection. Those are the muscles that actually contract during orgasm. When it contracts, it also helps propel the semen out of the prostate, out in through the urethra. So the pelvic muscles are here. This is the prostate here. So when it contracts, it will propel the semen from the prostate out to the penis. And the prostate is underneath the bladder. And the tube that goes out from the bladder, urethra, go through the prostate and then throughout the penis. That's where you urinate. That's where also semen comes out as well. So these little muscles are mighty and they are neglected. So that's why the Get Hard System, which is my framework that I use to treat ED in the office, involves giving you the Tigo machine to stimulate these muscles here. And also you will get the supplements like nitric oxide, Libido Plus, multivitamin, vitamin D. Studies have shown that men with ED have low vitamin D, right? Because vitamin D comes from a vegetable. So if you're not following the Mediterranean diet, you're probably going to have low vitamin D. And we also, of course, give you the penis pump so you can exercise your penis every day as well. So those are the necessities that you need, the tools that you need to get you out of ED. There is a clear pathway. You gotta do the work. You do the work, you will see the results.
