As a urological surgeon I receive complaints of male impotence and infertility everyday. However, a good general health is essential to a good sex life.
In this article I will examine how you can turn it on naturally.
If you have a poor sex life, please start by asking your doctor to carry out a general medical check-up to include your blood pressure and kidney function.
An annual medical is advisable. Treat any Hypertension, Anaemia, Kidney or Liver problems.
Once you have had aa successful comprehensive medical check-up, these are the factors to consider.
Dietary Factors
Three major dietary substances have the greatest effect on the Health of the Penis. There are Zinc, Vitamin E and Arginine.
Zinc
Zinc is essential for spermatozoa production. An average man looses 15 mcg of zinc in every ejaculate. Since the body does not make zinc it has to come from food sources.
The main natural sources of zinc include;
Red meat
Pork
Chicken drumstick
Cashew nuts
Chickpeas
Yogurt
Folic acid
Spinach
Avocado
Vitamin E
This fat soluble enzyme is essential for the synthesis of spermatozoa. The main sources of vitamins E include;
Almonds
Olive oil
Palm oil
Peanut / Groundnuts
L-Arginine
Arginine is an amino acid that is produced by the body from protein sources like meat. It can also be taken as supplements.
The body uses the amino acid Arginine to produce nitric oxide (NO), a critically important molecule that acts as a vasodilator.
In other words, Arginine makes nitric oxide (NO), a substance that dilates our blood vessels and thereby increases the rate of blood flow throughout the entire body, organs and all extremities, including, of course, through the penile tissue.
Many foods are natural sources of low levels of arginine. They include nuts like walnuts, hazelnuts, pecans, peanuts, almonds, cashews, and Brazil nuts. Also seeds like sesame and sunflower.
Oats, corn, cereals, chocolate, buckwheat and brown rice are rich in Arginine. Also dairy products, meat, chicken and turkey breasts.
Foods with a Viagra like effect
Watermelon
Dates
These food sources may act by dilating the blood vessels on your Penis like the prescribed drug Viagra.
Aphrodisiacs stimulate your sexual appetite and may help relieve impotence. Food sources that act as aphrodisiacs include;
Chocolate
Meat
Moderate alcohol - 1/2 glasses of wine daily
Oysters
Garlic
Chocolate
Chocolate
Chocolate contains both a sedative which relaxes and lowers inhibitions and a stimulant to increase activity and the desire for physical contact. It also contains an amino acid- L-Arginine which is known to increase semen volume.
Bananas
Suggestively shaped, bananas reduce blood pressure and we all know that there’s nothing quite like excessively high blood pressure (also known as hypertension) to cause erectile dysfunction. Due not only to its shape, but also its creamy, lush texture, some studies show its enzyme bromelain enhances male performance.
Oysters
Oysters have been on the list of libido lifters for centuries now. Casanova reportedly had dozens every morning before setting out on his amorous quests. Research shows that bivalve molluscs are actually rich in zinc, essential for testosterone production, and hence can boost sexual performance in men and women.
Garlic
If you think garlic is effective only against cold and heart disease, you will be surprised to know that it has been used as an aphrodisiac for centuries. It contains allicin which helps in blood flow towards male sexual organs and also in increasing the quality of sperm.
Regular exercise.
Improves general circulation, stamina, endurance and confidence.
Sleep
It advisable for adults to get 7-8 hours of sleep daily.
Manage Stress
Job insecurity, money concerns, a falling out with a friend etc any of these can lead to problems in the bedroom. Look for triggers.
Did something happen two years ago when it started?
Are you having relationship issues?
How do you treat each other outside of the bedroom?
Do you get quality time together?
Is he maintaining a healthy lifestyle and not drinking too much?
Drugs
You may have to ask your doctor for medication. You may derive some respite with Viagra or herbal ones like Pine bark.
Seek counselling
See someone who has the skills to address this in a safe place. Consider stress free holiday breaks. You may also benefit from a body massage.
Things to avoid
Excessive alcohol consumption (Max 14 units of alcohol per week).
Smoking.
Soya products
Soya beans are anti-testosterone, the male sex hormone.
Sexually transmitted infections STIs. Treat promptly and completely. Ensure you undergo post treatment laboratory test to confirm cure.
