Magnesium for Erectile Dysfunction

(Magnesium for Erectile Dysfunction, written by David Jaynes)

The good news for men with ED is, there are a ton of supplements
out there that will supposedly help fix your ED.

The bad news for men with ED is, there are so many options it’s hard to decide which supplements actually work.

The worse news for men with erectile dysfunction is, that it’s hard to tell what’s real, what’s rumor and what’s intentional snake oil.

Which is what this blog is all about!

Today let’s look at magnesium. Word around the block is, magnesium can cure your ED ills. But what does the research have to say?Continue reading

Tribulus Terrestris for Erectile Dysfunction

(Tribulus Terrestris for Erectile Dysfunction, by David Jaynes)

If you search deep enough and long enough on the web, you can find a blog post or forum post recommending taking pretty much any substance to cure pretty much any ill.

That’s why some of my posts here examine the claims of how one treatment or another work for curing erectile dysfunction. We look at the claims, the science, and what people experience on the ground.

Today’s candidate: tribulus terrestris. Continue reading

Oysters and Erections

(Oysters and Erections, written by David Jaynes)

Okay. This one isn’t exactly news.

Folks have been eating oysters as an aphrodisiac for a really long time.

This all started back in the days of the “Doctrine of Signatures,”…

An idea from back in the day when people assumed every plant and animal was custom made by a higher being.

The idea was that the higher being designed plants and animals in shapes that gave us a hint about how they might be useful to us.

A plant with a flower like an eye would help with vision. Birds, because they flew, might help with breathing problems.

And anything shaped like a dong or a vagina would help with fertility, libido, erections, and anything else related to sex and marital bliss.

Oysters on the half shell look a bit like a vagina, but both clams and oysters in the wild underwater look a lot like one.

And so early naturalists assumed that meant they’d make people horny.

Fast-forward to now, and it turns out they were — through no fault of their own — right. Oysters do a lot of stuff to help put and keep lead in the old pencil.

Let’s take a look at exactly how.Continue reading

Nofap No Morning Wood

(Nofap No Morning Wood, written By David Jaynes)

Sometimes things have to get worse before they can
get better.

Ask any recovering drug addict about withdrawal
if you have any doubts about that.

It’s no different with a porn addiction.

Too much fapping to porn, especially the hardcore stuff, leads to a “dead stick” in your cockpit when you’re not actively using pornography.

Which can be scary to you and disappointing to your partner.

It can also do a number on your self esteem, leading to social withdrawal, anxiety and depression.

But if you all of a sudden decide to stop fapping, you can experience a period of “flatline” where you penis won’t respond to anything but porn. But you’re not using porn now…

So your formerly reliable morning wood abandons you entirely as you work your way through this recovery phase.

And let’s be honest with each other here. If you’re not even getting morning wood, your libido has left the building. Continue reading

Weak Erection and Testosterone

(Written By David Jaynes)

Testosterone is known as the “man” hormone.

It’s what puts hair on your chest, muscles on your frame, and passion in your sex life.

But with age, environmental factors, lifestyle changes or simple bad genetic luck, testosterone can decrease – sometimes to the point of health problems.

We’re obviously talking about weak erection / testosterone problems, but we’re also talking about how-long-you-live health problems.

Stuff like heart disease and obesity.

If you have weak erections, this can happen because of a variety of factors. Some of them are caused by isolated issues like high blood pressure, stress or other health conditions.

In other words…

The link between a weak erection and low testosterone exists, but the cause of the problem is not always direct, as Low-t leads to other health conditions….

Conditions that can eventually lead to blatant erectile dysfunction if you don’t get a grip on them.

For example…Continue reading

A very common question we get on this website is, can
you get an erection with low testosterone?

Frequent site contributor, David Jaynes has dug into the science and answered this question in detail below.

Let’s get started…

From the Mailbag…

Hello David,

I’ve recently been diagnosed with very low testosterone. 

I know it’s a killer for men’s sex drive and performance in bed. On the other hand, I’ve heard terrible things about testosterone therapy. 

What’s the skinny on getting an erection with low testosterone? I having extreme difficulties getting them right now.

Also, how can I improve my chances. 

Thank you,

Erections Without Drugs

(Erections without drugs, written by Jason Brick) 

If you go to the doctor and tell him you’re having trouble getting and maintaining erections…

He’ll probably suggest one of several little blue or purple pills to help you get back into the game.

A lot of people are happy using drugs to get their erections.

(hell, a lot of people get most of their erections while using drugs of one sort or another).

But drugs are expensive, and their side effects can be worse than not having sex at all.

There are a few men in the world who can’t have a normal sex life without the assistance of modern, Big Pharma boner drugs.

For the rest of us, one simple trick can give us those erections without drugs and without negative side effects.

Here’s How…Continue reading

Testosterone Therapy Risks

Testosterone Therapy Risks, written by David Jaynes.

Low testosterone isn’t exactly normal, but it does affect
one in four men over 30 in the United States.

It’s not a life-threatening condition, but can definitely threaten your lifestyle.

Common side effects include reduced libido, lower sperm production, reduced bone density and muscle mass, increased fat, and lower red blood cell production.

So it’s not something you want to just put up with, like that bum knee from that mountain biking injury.

Ask (most) doctors, and they’ll recommend testosterone therapy: injecting or ingesting pharmaceutical testosterone to make up for what your body is no longer producing.

It’s the standard big pharma response to the problem, but like most big pharma solutions it comes with its own set of problems…Continue reading

Zocor And Impotence

This Zocor And Impotence article was written by frequent
site contributor, David Jaynes.

There are plenty of things that can cause impotence and erectile
dysfunction (ED).

But if you’re struggling with ED and you can’t seem to fix it with
diet and lifestyle, you might want to look in your medicine cabinet.

One of the worst offenders for causing impotence is Statins, especially Zocor.

With 28% of the population over 40 already on statins, these systematically deployed drugs are causing some serious damage in the bedroom.

In fact, based on the US male population over 40 and the rate of statin-caused ED according to some studies, we’re looking at 375,000 men suffering ED as a DIRECT result of taking statins.

This article is going to explain exactly HOW statins cause ED, what statins to watch out for, and what you can do to manage your cholesterol without impacting your erectile health.Continue reading

Can Sleep Apnea Cause Impotence

Can Sleep Apnea Cause Impotence?

Yes it can…

Sleep apnea may seem like the Next Big Self-Diagnosed Thing, akin to gluten sensitivity from last decade or ADD in kids.

But for millions it’s a real and serious problem linked to all kinds of physical and psychological health problems.

For folks who aren’t sure what sleep apnea is, it’s when you stop breathing intermittently throughout a night of sleep.

Because that breathing cessation wakes you up just a little bit, even mild cases are the equivalent of getting jostled awake every few minutes all night long.

It’s pretty logical to assume that no parts of your health and wellbeing would be operating at peak performance after just a few weeks of this, and science supports that assumption.

For example…Continue reading
