Hello everyone welcome to episode 64 of intermittent fasting for life experiment of one. I am your host, Tracey Mack.

Erectile Dysfunction also known as E. D.  Is a condition where a man cannot get or keep an erection firm enough for sexual activity. It can happen occasionally to many men, but when it occurs frequently or consistently, it is considered a medical condition.

How an erection normally works. An erection happens when:

1.The brain sends signals of arousal. 2.Blood vessels in the penis relax and open. 3.Blood flows into the penile tissue. 4.The penis becomes firm as blood is trapped inside.

With erectile dysfunction something interrupts this process.

Here are some Common causes of ED:

Physical causes

•Poor blood circulation •High blood pressure •Diabetes •Obesity •Low testosterone •Nerve damage.

Mental / emotional causes

•Stress •Anxiety •Depression •Relationship issues.

Lifestyle causes

•Smoking •Excess alcohol •Lack of exercise •Poor diet •Chronic sleep deprivation  *And medication side effects.

  ED is often an early warning sign of circulation problems. Because the penile arteries are small, they may show problems years before heart disease symptoms appear.

Signs of E.D: •Trouble getting an erection •Trouble keeping an erection •Reduced sexual desire •Erections that are weaker than normal.

In many cases, ED is reversible, especially when caused by lifestyle or circulation issues. 

Certain foods can naturally improve E.D.

Here are 7 foods that can improve blood flow:

1. Leafy Greens

2. Watermelon (Nature’s Circulation Fruit)

Some people even call watermelon “nature’s Viagra effect food.”

3. Pomegranate

4. Walnuts and Almonds

5. Beets

6. Flaxseeds

7. blueberries and strawberries
