ERECTILE DYSFUNCTION: Causes and Natural Remedies

Talking about erectile dysfunction is a difficult topic for some men, as this condition can cause emotional distress because it negatively affects intimate relationships, self-esteem, and the quality of life of those who suffer from it.

In this article, we highlight, in general terms, the main risk factors of this condition, as well as lifestyle changes and natural interventions that can be beneficial in treating it.

To begin, we must clearly understand what erectile dysfunction is:

It is the inability to achieve or maintain a penile erection for satisfactory sexual performance.

Maintaining or achieving an erection requires coordination between various body systems, which is why dysfunction can be caused by different factors, such as:

  • Cardiovascular diseases: If you have erectile dysfunction, you should talk to your doctor about screening for cardiovascular diseases, as the two conditions are often related.
  • Decreased hormone levels: Men with erectile dysfunction should consider having a blood test to determine their total and free testosterone levels.
  • Aging, diabetes, obesity, a sedentary lifestyle, and even some medications can also cause this condition.

However, psychological disorders such as depression, anxiety, stress, and low self-esteem can also contribute to erectile dysfunction.

Erectile dysfunction affects up to 30 million American men and is generally age-dependent.

In young men, it is more common to see psychological issues as the main cause of erectile dysfunction, while older men often have a combination of both psychological and biological factors.

So, you may ask, what can we do?

The answer is simple. Just as certain conditions and behaviors (as mentioned earlier) increase the chances of developing erectile dysfunction, modifying these behaviors can help reverse this troublesome condition.

It is recommended to exercise regularly, as studies show that exercise can improve erectile dysfunction, sexual response, and overall cardiovascular health. While obesity doubles the risk of this condition, it can be avoided by maintaining a healthy diet high in antioxidants. Additionally, the consumption of alcohol, tobacco, and illegal drugs should be eliminated.

It is important to highlight that there are natural alternatives with proven clinical studies that benefit the body and support the treatment of erectile dysfunction. The most relevant ones are:

  • L-ARGININE, an essential amino acid that plays a key role in erectile function as it helps form a vasodilator known as nitric oxide. It is one of the main components of our formulas PROSFLEX, PROSTASAN, and CARDIFLEX.
  • EPIMEDIUM, also known as Horny Goat Weed, Fairy Wings, or Ying Yang Huo, is a flowering plant species traditionally used as an aphrodisiac. Its main component is icariin, known for improving erectile and sexual function. It is an ingredient in our supplement EXTEND.
  • YOHIMBINE is an alkaloid with aphrodisiac properties that has been used for over 70 years. It has traditionally been used effectively to treat erectile dysfunction and increase sexual desire in both men and women. It is present in our formulas: ULTRA MAN, MELT DOWN, EXTEND, and CARDIFLEX.
  • GINSENG was first used in ancient China as a treatment for erectile dysfunction and remains a popular natural aphrodisiac. Several clinical studies have shown that supplementation with ginseng improves erectile function and overall sexual satisfaction in men with erectile dysfunction. The supplements containing Ginseng are: ENERGIZER, EXTEND, CIRCULATE, and ULTRA MAN.
  • MACA is a root vegetable that can stimulate metabolism, help control body weight, increase energy, improve memory, and reduce stress and depression. Its roots contain properties that increase fertility. Clinical studies suggest that maca improves the production of sex hormones and increases libido. Maca is a component of CARDIFLEX, COLLAGEN H, MELT DOWN, PROSFLEX, PROSTASAN, and ULTRA MAN.
  • MUIRA PUAMA is an herb used to improve erectile function and orgasm in aging men. One study reported that more than 60% of men who used the supplement saw an improvement. You can find it in our EXTEND formula.

And there’s more! Other natural alternatives that can improve male sexual health include cysteine, zinc, vitamin D, B vitamins, and vitamin E.
