Today, the situation is such that many middle-aged and often young men have some kind of potency disorder. Fearing a visit to the doctor, men are increasingly turning to synthetic drugs to increase potency, and forget about natural remedies that improve erectile function. Synthetic products have only one significant plus: they increase potency immediately. For example, the well-known Viagra begins to act half an hour after taking it and retains its effect for 5 hours.
Improving potency in a natural way implies not only actions aimed at improving sexual function, but also the healing of the whole organism whose condition directly affects a man's sexual function.
Potency problems can be temporary, when erectile dysfunction is observed for a short time, and permanent, when erectile dysfunction is present for a long time. If such a problem has occurred, before going to the doctor, you can try to solve it yourself by following a few tips for maintaining men's health.
Increasing potency by natural methods
- Nutrition plays a primary role in the functioning of the whole organism. Food should contain all the nutrients necessary for the body, especially vitamins and minerals necessary for potency, of which the main ones are zinc, selenium, vitamin E, C, vitamins B. You must daily compensate for the daily need for these substances.
- Special exercises to increase potency are aimed at increasing blood circulation in the pelvic organs and training the potency muscle - pubococcygeal muscle. These exercises do not take much time and give visible results after the first week of training.
- Sexual function and sexual desire are directly related to the level of the male sex hormone testosterone. Low levels of testosterone in the male body are the cause of reduced potency and sexual performance. This is especially true for middle-aged and older men, whose testosterone levels begin to decline gradually (by about 1-1, 5% per year after 25 years).
- Being overweight in men is the worst enemy of potency. The fact is that excess weight not only reduces testosterone levels, but also increases the level of estrogen - female sex hormones, whose excess leads not only to erectile dysfunction, but also to worsening the general health of men. In addition, being overweight leads to cardiovascular disease and diabetes, which are also serious factors in reducing potency and compromising health. To diagnose overweight it is necessary to measure the waist circumference of a man - 94 cm or more indicates obesity.
- Avoid alcohol, smoking and drug use. The fact that bad habits are the worst enemy of potency has long been proven by doctors. Just getting rid of bad habits can dramatically improve a man's sexual function.
- A sedentary lifestyle contributes to a reduction in potency. It has been observed that representatives of sedentary professions have a more pronounced tendency to potency disorders than representatives of professions whose occupation is related to physical activity. Therefore, another effective way to increase potency is physical activity and active sports. However, if the profession obliges you to be in a sitting position for 24 hours, Kegel exercise, aimed at training the pubococcygeus muscles, will help to correct the situation. The advantage of this exercise is that you do not have to get up from work to finish it.
- Often, erectile dysfunction is based on psychological experience. These can be the consequences of unsuccessful sexual intercourse, distrust in one's sexual abilities, etc. In any case, you need to get rid of sexual complexes, if not alone, then with the help of a doctor - a sex therapist or psychotherapist.
- Avoid stress, prolonged depression and anxiety. When the body is subject to any experiences, sexual function is inhibited. This is due to the ancient mechanism of fertilization, the essence of which is that the offspring are born in the most favorable conditions.
- Get enough sleep. Sleep at least 8 hours a day. Sleep should take place in optimal conditions in complete silence and darkness.
The issue of increasing potency must be approached comprehensively, then the effectiveness of treatment will be much higher.
