Natural Remedy for ED Disorder

ED is a common disorder affecting millions of men of different ages all over the world. In fact, 1 in 10 men suffers ED at some point in their lives.

The common treatments to get rid of this embarrassing condition usually involve the use of oral medication, hormone therapy, counseling or even surgery, which is usually followed by unpleasant side effects and high cost.

The worst part is that even after suffering the side-effects of those traditional methods, only 30-40% of males experience any improvement.

Easy, natural things you can do to overcome ED without side effects.
Even though it seems too good to be true, easy lifestyle changes can completely transform your sexual life.

One of the most common factors causing erectile dysfunction is stress-related. In fact, the recent survey by Men’s Health revealed that of the 1,500 men questioned, 40 % blamed stress for poor sexual performance.

Stress and anxiety cause the levels of the male hormone (androgen) to drop which leads to low libido and less blood flow to the penis, resulting in a weaker erection.

Another lifestyle cause of poor sexual performance is the lack of exercise and excess weight. It is crucially important to exercise as it helps improve blood circulation and blood flow to the penis, resulting in longer and harder erections.

Maintaining good cardiovascular health is another important factor to improve your sexual life. For example, ED is often caused by high blood pressure or plaque buildup that blocks the arteries leading down to the genitals.

Buckwheat, Another Weapon against Heart Disease

Buckwheat is actually one of the most concentrated food sources of rutin, which is responsible for many of its health benefits.

“Buckwheat’s lipid-lowering activity is largely due to rutin and other flavonoid compounds. These compounds help maintain blood flow, keep platelets from clotting excessively (platelets are compounds in blood that, when triggered, clump together, thus preventing excessive blood loss), and protect LDL from free radical oxidation into potentially harmful cholesterol oxides. All these actions help to protect against heart disease.”

Plant Sterols & Stanols, Two Weapons against High Cholesterol

According to a study published in The American Journal of Cardiology, plant sterols and stanols block the absorption of harmful LDL cholesterol- and prevent it from building up and hardening the arteries, causing atherosclerosis.

Plant sterols and stanols are substances found naturally in small amounts in grains, nuts, seeds, vegetables, fruits and legumes.
According to the same study, a daily dose of 2-2.5 g of plant sterols can lower LDL as much as 14 percent! (3 servings a day can reduce cholesterol by 20 points)

Since these substances are so effective at lowering cholesterol, manufacturers started adding them to foods like cereals, orange juice, yoghurt and granola bars. But you can also find plant sterols and stanols in the form of a supplement. Check in a health food store near you.

Good Fat for Heart Attack Patients

Sink your teeth into this good news: Heart attack patients can enjoy a little more fat in their diets. A Mediterranean-Style diet high in Olive Oil and other healthy fats is just as good as the classic American Heart Association (AHA) low fat diet for heart attack victims.

A new study had one-third the risk of suffering another heart attack or stroke compared to heart patients eating normal diets. But those on the AHA diet were told to keep total fat intake to less than 30 percent of calories – while the Mediterranean dieters are allowed up to 40 percent.

Omega-3 Fatty Acids for Irregular Periods

Constantly worried about ruining your clothes because you can never tell when your period is due? Fish to the rescue!  Researchers have found that supplementing women’s diets with omega-3 fatty acids makes their menstrual cycles more regular-which means you’ll know when you can wear white pants!

Grapes for Morning Sickness

If morning sickness makes even a glass of water send you running toward the bathroom, eat a bunch of grapes first thing in the morning. They are a great fluid replacer, but they don’t cause that queasy feeling, say prenatal nutrition specialist Miriam, R.D., Director of the National Morning Sickness Nutrition Clinic at Brigham and Women’s Hospital in Boston.
