The penis pump has been on the market for seemingly dozen of years, and while it has been found to actually help the penis, it mostly ends up as the brunt of jokes. Everyone had a good laugh when Austin Powers broke out his Swedish-Made Enlarger. But if you look past the silly name, you’ll find a contraption that could help to return your erection to it’s former glory.

Most men would hesitate to waltz into a seedy adult store and pick up a dubious looking pump to put onto their most sacred of areas. After all, the penis pump is presented as an at-home enlarger, and you’ve got a reputation to uphold. But worry not; the penis pump isn’t just for men looking to gain a few inches. Experts have found that the pump is useful for men who struggle to achieve and maintain an erection.

This is because the penis pump works by pumping air out of the tube, thus creating a vacuum. In this vacuum, blood in the penis is pulled into the shaft and into erectile tissue. As the erectile tissue fills with blood, the penis will spring to life. Even men with the most stubborn of ED will find that this little pump can help to get your erection up and at them.

However, once the pump comes off, it will be up to you to keep your erection up. It is suggested that you slip a constriction ring onto your penis, ensuring that blood will not begin to escape once free of the vacuum. With the ring on, your erection will continue to stand at attention and you’ll be free to get down to business.

Of course, the penis pump doesn’t present a permanent solution for ED. But for men looking for a little temporary help in the bedroom, it’s not a bad choice.

Do you toss and turn at night? Do you snore like a backfiring car? Do you struggle to fall asleep at night? If you answered yes to any of these, bad news; you could be heading towards erectile dysfunction.

Yes, research has been conducted and numbers have been crunched, and experts have found that men who suffer from sleep issues are at a higher risk of erectile dysfunction. While what’s going on with your sleep schedule and what happens to your erection seem like they couldn’t be more disconnected, the truth is quite the opposite.

This is because sleep disorders such as sleep apnea and insomnia can lead to a fluctuation in your body’s hormones. When your hormones are out of whack, this can lead to issues elsewhere in the body, including an increase in abdominal fat. When your pack on the pounds in your abdomen, your body will struggle to keep up with this newfound weight, leading to your heart struggling to accommodate, leading to, you guessed it, erectile dysfunction.

That’s not to say the occasional crummy sleep will result in the loss of your erection. Only men who suffer from serious sleep disorders are at risk of developing ED. For men who do suffer from sleep disorders and fear for their erection, talk with your doctor about potential remedies for your sleeping issues. Once you’ve managed to overcome these problems and get a good night’s sleep, your erection will be safe.

As a child of the Earth, you always seek the natural path. Non-GMO food, hemp clothes, all natural everything. So when you develop erectile dysfunction, you’re naturally (pun intended) going to look for a natural way to overcome this issue. After all, if the Earth can produce natural alternatives to Advil and the like, surely there most be something found in the wild that can beat erectile dysfunction, right?

Unfortunately, despite extensive research, no natural solutions have been found that can completely conquer erectile dysfunction. Sure, there are roots, berries, twigs, and leaves that have been found to aid in fighting ED, but scientists have yet to find the miracle natural ED remedy.

While you may be loathe to turn to medication to overcome your bedroom affliction, the simple fact is that erectile health pills really are the best way to fight ED. If you want to be able to perform in the bedroom, you’re going to need Viagra or Cialis backing you up.

Positive lifestyle changes can help you to overcome ED, and incorporating natural ED solutions into your life can help to fight back against erectile dysfunction. But if you want to shake off ED completely, you’re going to need to turn to medication.

Sure, you’ve heard that a ballooning waistline can lead to health complications, including erectile dysfunction. By exercising regularly and eating better, you can fight back against this weight-gain induced ED. But when you’re making these positive lifestyle changes, are there any foods you can introduce into your diet that might help your chances of beating ED?

While no food group is going to help you to overcome ED singlehandedly, introducing these three foods into your diet may give you the fighting chance you need.

Leafy Greens: Leafy veggies such as spinach, celery, and lettuce are chock full of nitrates, an extremely effective vasodilator. In plain English this means that these green vegetables help to open up blood vessels and facilitate healthy blood flow. When blood can quickly reach the penis, this makes it easier for the body to achieve an erection.

Pistachios: These little nuts are rich in protein, which has been found to help improve sexual health. In fact, pistachios are so efficient at getting protein to the body that researchers have found that men with ED who ate pistachios every day for three weeks experienced a significant improvement in erectile health. This is because the protein in pistachios helps to relax blood vessels, improving blood flow.

Watermelon: Watermelon has been found to be so effective at helping men with ED that many have taken to calling the delicious fruit “Nature’s Viagra.” This is because watermelon is rich in phytonutrients, a helpful antioxidant. What makes these phytonutrients so efficient at fighting ED? You guessed it; they relax the blood vessels.

There’s nothing wrong with an adult beverage every once in a while. It can help you unwind, help you loosen up, and help to improve an otherwise boring night. But when drinking alcohol becomes a daily occurrence, you’re setting yourself up for a litany of health problems. An overdependence on alcohol can lead to liver failure, weight gain, and yes, erectile dysfunction.

While liver and heart problems are historically connected to alcoholism, alcohols effect on your erection is somewhat underreported.

You see, alcohol affects your heart. It can cause it to struggle to effectively pump blood throughout the body, which in turns affects body parts that are dependent upon steady blood flow. If your heart can’t quickly get blood to the penis, this leads to many erectile misfires. Even if the brain is in the mood and your body is ready, blood is needed to make anything happen downstairs. When alcohol slows your heart’s blood pumping abilities, your erection is going to pay the price.

That’s not to imply that alcohol needs to eliminated entirely from your life to save your erection. Like all things in life, drinking is about moderation. Keeping the amount you drink in check will ensure that your body stays healthy and happy.

If you feel as though drinking is taking over your life and you fear for the loss of your erection, talk with a mental health expert to get to the root of your problem and concoct a way to fight back. A drink every now and again never hurt anyone, but make sure it doesn’t take control of your life, or you could be saying adios to your erection.

Researchers have found that the one-two combo of Thanksgiving and Christmas leads to beltline’s expanding all across the United States. With both holidays putting a big focus on eating lots and lots of food and the chilly weather preventing people from enjoying the outdoors, this leads to Americans eating more and moving less.

As a result, you might find yourself beginning to resemble Jolly Old Saint Nick in the belly department. For some men, as the pounds pack on, troubles begin to arise in the bedroom. While slim, getting an erection never proved problematic, but your recent weight gain has made it difficult to perform.

This isn’t just a coincidence. In fact, weight gain has been found to be one of the most common causes of ED.

This is due to the fact that your body has to work harder to keep up with your heartier frame. Your heart will pump harder, and blood will have to struggle to get around the body quickly and efficiently. Additionally, your blood vessels will constrict, further hampering the flow of blood.

When your body can’t get blood quickly to your penis, this can lead to missed erections.

If you’re looking to shake off the holiday pounds and regain your erection, the solution is simple: get healthy. Eat better and get active, and you should begin to see your weight shed right off. With your weight gone, your erection should soon return.

Erectile dysfunction. The very term summons thoughts of an old man unable to get it up anymore. But while ED has historically been associated with men in their golden years, the stark truth is that ED can affect men of all ages. Sure, it becomes more prominent as you age, but men as young as 20 are finding that losing the ability to achieve an erection is a threat that is all too real.

As you age, your body will begin to undergo changes. Your blood vessels will thin and your heart will struggle, which will lead to blood having to work harder to make it’s way through the body. When your body can’t get blood quickly to the penis, this leads to missed erections.

But thinning blood vessels and heart problems shouldn’t be a problem for younger men, right? Well, that’s true. But there are many other factors that can afflict men of all ages, which can lead to ED. Some of the most common causes of ED in younger men are:

–       Obesity

–       Smoking

–       Alcoholism

–       Depression

–       Stress

ED can strike at any age, and it’s become increasingly prevalent in younger men. If you’re a younger man and you are finding it difficult to achieve an erection, consult a doctor and find out what could be causing your affliction.

Lately, you’ve been finding it difficult to find a reason to get out of bed. Things you used to enjoy have become tedious and joyless. When your friends invite you out for a night on the town, you opt to sit alone on your couch. If you’ve noticed that your mental headspace has changed drastically, you may be suffering from depression. Depression is like a rainy day funk that you can’t seem to bring yourself out of. It can take control of your life, and it can begin to feel as if there is no escape.

To add insult to injury, many men who suffer from severe depression find it difficult to achieve an erection. When your body is dealing with these psychological issues, it may struggle to achieve an erection. When you begin to lose your erection, this could send a man further spiraling into depression, exacerbating the problem.

While depression-induced erectile dysfunction can feel unshakeable, this simply isn’t true. If you’re suffering from ED brought on by your depression, you need to talk to someone to figure out how to overcome your mental issues.

A therapist or psychologist can walk you through your depression, and together you can formulate a way to get out of this funk. With careful planning and strict adherence to the plan, you can eventually claw yourself out of your depression. Once you’ve overcome depression, you should see your erection return to its former glory. So to conquer your ED, you must first conquer your depression.
