6 Useful Recommendations to Preventing Erectile Dysfunction
There is a universally recognized axiom: any disease is easier to prevent than to cure. For many men, maintaining healthy erectile function is a priority.
However, not everyone knows the right methods to prevent the development of this insidious disorder.
Stop Smoking
Smoking is a dangerous bad habit that sooner or later leads to cardiovascular diseases, which in turn are associated with erectile dysfunction.
According to a study by K.T. McVary, S. Carrier, and H. Wessells (The Journal of Urology, 2011), smoking may increase risks of moderate or complete ED 2-fold.
Every time you smoke a cigarette, your blood vessels are stressed.
Remember, healthy vessels are the key to normal erectile function.
Stop Drinking
People often take alcohol before sex because it helps to relax and become more relaxed. Small dosages of alcohol can really help before sexual intercourse. But overconsumption often worsens an erection and full sexual intercourse becomes impossible.
Moreover, alcohol abuse was associated with a decrease in testosterone, the main ‘male hormone’ or the ‘King’ of male hormones.
Therefore, if you have problems with self-control and you can’t stop after the first glass, it is better to give up alcoholic beverages altogether.
