Erectile Dysfunction is the body's incapacity to either get or be able to maintain an erection. It can occur at any age. The likelihood of suffering from it through teenage is minimal, but still it can happen, and the chances increase proportionally along with age. Not only does this problem affect your sexual life, but it destroys your self esteem and confidence which ends up affecting not just your personal but also your professional life.

To fix any medical problem we need to understand what was happening before the complications in the body occurred and what is happening now, so lets dig a bit deeper into the topic.

WHAT CAUSES ERECTILE DYSFUNCTION?

An erection begins in your brain. Something you saw, felt, noticed, heard, or thought influences your nerves to send chemical signals to the veins in your penis. The arteries unwind and open up to let more blood to stream in; in the meantime, the veins shut everything down. When blood is in the penis, weight traps it inside the corpora cavernosa. Consequently Your penis extends and holds the erection.
So if anything physical or mental blocks this process, the erection doesn't take place and hence tragedy gets struck

So to sum it up, its caused by these three things listed below:

1) DEPRESSION, ANXIETY AND ANGER
2) MEDICATIONS, ALCOHOL AND HORMONAL IMBALANCE
3) OBESITY AND POOR SELF-IMAGE


ADDRESSING AND FIXING THE ISSUE:

When i was researching i came through a lot of blogs and websites trying to propose solutions but they all lacked the proper addressing of the issue and the implementation that goes along with it.
Look whatever happens to you, there are two ways to fix it; internally or externally.

This issue is the one that needs to be fixed from both angels, internally and externally.

Lets address internally first:

  • Penile erection is all about the blood flow and mental stimulation. There is a saying that goes like You become what you Eat.
Focus on a good and healthy diet. Since blood is produced and pumped through heart, you need to intake a heart healthy diet full of good fats and proteins and an adequate amount of carbs. 
In my journey to fix the problem.
I started to eat beetroots, Arugula, and Garlic.


WHY DO THESE FOODS HELP?

These 3 foods have one thing in common, high nitric oxide content. Nitric oxide is something that our body produces on its own, but not in big amount to greatly help with erections. In simple words nitric oxide works as grease for blood arteries.It works as a stimulating agent which increases the effectiveness of arteries.
The intake of these foods and other foods with high nitric oxide content, will definitely affect your ability to maintain an erection and moreover will also help in boosting your sexual stamina and the likelihood of performing multiple times in a row.
Because body needs other important vitamins too, along with these foods start taking a multivitamin on a regular basis so your body's needs of vitamins and minerals is satisfied. It is estimated that in order to get all the vitamins from food in the recommended quantities, a human being would have to consume 23000 calories daily, which is definitely impossible.

So any good multivitamin would do, in my case i started to take ONE-A-DAY (a multivitamin pill).

Another major problem that prevents you from achieving erections is clogged arteries. There is no specific way to know if you have clogged arteries, but start eating green veggies and they will help in unclogging arteries.
Moreover, drink responsibly and moderately, excessive consumption of alcohol has been linked to erectile dysfunction.

THE EXTERNAL ISSUES:

External issues are more or less related to work or your personal life. But keep in mind these are harder to work on and can take some time to get in the right place.

34% American population is either suffering from depression, anxiety and anger issues. These 3 issues are linked to one another and can cause you to have a softy.
The best way to get rid of these three issues is to bring happiness in your life which could be through means of activities or acts of charity or just being optimistic. Don't be sad over things you have no control over. Start distracting yourself (Join gym, do paid/unpaid internships, go on trips) DO something to take stress off.
These 3 issues are the biggest reasons for heart attack as well, and they deep inside kill your desire to live and slowly and gradually make you dead starting from inside.

So to sum it up. The cure to erectile dysfunction is to fix the issue internally and externally. Consume right type of food, and stay away from foods that are bad for heart and blood flow. Take stress off, distract yourself.
