Lifestyle changes and quitting smoking can go a
long way in reducing the risks
New Delhi, 17
August 2017: Studies indicate that men who smoke more than 20
cigarettes a day have 60% higher risk of erectile dysfunction (ED). About 15%
of past and present smokers experience an ED. Other important factors that
contribute to this condition include diabetes, high blood pressure, and high
cholesterol, all of which can also get further exacerbated by smoking. As per
the IMA, smoking also leads to reduced volume of ejaculation, low sperm count,
sperm shape, etc.
ED is defined
as a persistent difficulty achieving and maintaining an erection. The causes
for this disorder can be both medical and psychological. Frequent ED is usually
the sign of health problems which may require treatment.
Speaking
about this, Padma Shri Awardee Dr K K Aggarwal, National President Indian Medical
Association (IMA) and President Heart Care Foundation of India (HCFI) and Dr RN
Tandon – Honorary Secretary General IMA in a joint statement, said, "Sexual
arousal in males is a complex process involving the brain, hormones, emotions,
nerves, muscles, and blood vessels. ED can occur when there is a problem with
any of these associated factors. Stress and mental health concerns have been
known to worsen the condition. Sometimes, ED is the result of a combination of
physical and psychological issues such as a minor physical condition that slows
a person’s sexual response leading to anxiety. This anxiety can lead to or
worsen ED.”
There are various risk factors
which can contribute to ED. These include medical conditions, being overweight,
certain medical treatments such as prostate surgery or radiation treatment for
cancer, injuries, medications such as antidepressants, psychological
conditions, and drinking.
Adding further, Dr Aggarwal,
said, “Many men with ED have been able to improve their sexual function through
lifestyle changes. It is imperative to give up smoking, lose weight, and
exercise which will all help in improving blood flow. In case a medication
seems to be the contributing factor, it is a good idea to speak to a doctor
about adjusting the dosage or switching to another drug.”
The following steps can reduce
a person’s risk of acquiring ED.
- Start walking: At least 30 minutes of
walking a day is linked with a 41% drop in risk for ED.
- Eat right: Eating a diet rich in
fruit, vegetables, whole grains, and fish can decrease the likelihood of
ED.
- Pay attention to vascular health: High blood
pressure, high blood sugar, high cholesterol, and high triglycerides can
all damage arteries in the male organ. Low levels of HDL (good)
cholesterol and an expanding waistline also contribute.
- Get slim and stay slim: Obesity
raises risks for vascular disease and diabetes, two major causes of ED.
Excess fat interferes with several hormones that may be part of the problem
as well.
- Build pelvic muscles and not biceps: A strong
pelvic floor enhances rigidity during erections and helps keep blood from
leaving the penis by pressing on a key vein.

ReplyDeleteIt was my last hope of having a child and Dr Obodo made my dreams come true. I asked for the spells, but didn’t tell my husband. We carried on trying to get pregnant as normal. I had a really good feeling about Obodo. I felt pregnant or like pregnancy was coming very about a week after the spells were cast. I began to vomit in the morning from morning sickness. I thought it was the toast. I’ve never felt like that before. And it was true! I went and grabbed the pee stick to show my husband. I went to my doctors at the earliest possible time to have a test and it came back positive. I immediately rang up my husband to let him know that the pee stick was not a false positive. He asked me how it was possible. He was certain that the pee stick was passed the expiry date. I told him all about Obodo, the fertility spells and he was amazed. We now have a very beautiful baby boy on the way and we are expecting to use Obodo in hope that I can have my baby girl. you can get in touch with doc via info ___ templeofanswer@hotmail . co . uk , call 234 8155 425481 for help
