The thing that dominates men's abilities

When Ream was in charge of a 14-year follow-up survey, he was often saddened to see that among the 22,000 men participating in the survey, due to many omissions in heart protection, their chances of sexual ability plummeting were greatly increased: 90% of them had obvious ED tendencies, and those who smoked had a 50% higher chance of ED.

The heart is the master of men's sexual ability that cannot be underestimated

Among them, many patients have no idea when their ED problem began. Some even discovered that their sexual ability disappeared after suffering a cardiovascular or cerebrovascular accident.

Ream points out that penile erections have always had a delicate relationship with heart health. When a man has desire, a large amount of blood rushes into the central artery of the erectile cavity of the penis, causing the corpus cavernosum to swell and the penis to stand upright. The heart is the source of this continuous and stable blood supply. Any factor that weakens heart function and affects blood pressure can prevent the penis from achieving an erection.

Common knowledge about male sexual health: Lifestyle affects heart health

He smokes more than 20 cigarettes a day, hardly ever exercises, and his weight becomes more and more serious every year... The deputy chief physician of the hospital's andrology center told reporters that any lifestyle that affects heart health will make those seemingly strong men pay a heavy price in their sexual ability.

A recent medical study in Australia pointed out that men who smoke more than 20 cigarettes a day are 39% more likely to suffer from ED than non-smoking men. Because toxic chemicals in cigarettes such as nicotine can hinder blood circulation in the penis, lower local blood pressure, lead to insufficient congestion and weak erection.

In the stable life after marriage or cohabitation, as the amount of fat intake in the diet increases and the time for regular exercise is greatly reduced, many men develop high blood pressure, high blood lipids, and high cholesterol at a young age. This condition greatly reduces their blood vessels' oxygen delivery capacity, and their ability to maintain an erection also decreases.

In addition, problems closely related to heart health, such as high blood pressure and diabetes, can also directly lead to ED. Doctor Zhang further pointed out that with the increasing obesity rate among modern young people, the time when young people develop cardiovascular problems is gradually earlier, and the age at which they develop erectile problems is also getting earlier.
