Erectile Dysfunction Erectile Dysfunction May Be First Sign of Heart Trouble ~ PCRM Caldwell B. Esselstyn Jr., M. D. says it this way: “Too often the first sign of CAD is an SCD. “The first sign of Coronary Artery Disease is Sudden Cardiac Death in all too many people. Erectile Dysfunction definition from the Mayo Clinic says: Erectile dysfunction (impotence) occurs when a man can no longer get or keep an erection firm enough for sexual intercourse. Having erection trouble from time to time isn’t necessarily a cause for concern. But if erectile dysfunction is an ongoing problem, it may cause stress, cause relationship problems or affect your self-confidence.
Risk Factors Risk factors include diabetes, heart problems, tobacco, being overweight, prostate surgury or radiation treatments, certain medications including antidepressants, antihistamines and medications to treat high blood pressure, pain or prostate cancer. Stress or depression, drug and alcohol use or prolonged bicycling may also be risk factors. This article goes on and on to multiple pages.

Plant-strong & healthy
Slay that Dragon! It’s so simple.. all we need to do is consume a Whole Food, Plant-Based diet. This will allow our body to heal itself of sooo many diseases…better yet; to prevent them before they can even get started! Of course, if this is just too radical you can always see your Doctor and get pills and pumps and more. A Google search nets many sites for these. Experts have estimated that erectile dysfunction affects 30 million men in the United States. Erectile dysfunction (ED) varies in severity; some men have a total inability to achieve an erection, others have an inconsistent ability to achieve an erection, and still others can sustain only brief erections. Many go untreated because it would be embarrassing to discuss this topic with our Doctors. ERECTILE DYSFUNCTION related to heart disease by Caldwell B. Esselstyn Jr., M D. a brief video.. Here is an interview with Dustin Rudolph, PharmD, the Plant-Based Pharmacist here: The Plant-Based Pharmacist and The Doctor – Erectile Dysfunction, author of The Empty Medicine Cabinet: The Pharmacist’s Guide to the Hidden Danger of Drugs and the Healing Powers of Food
I highly recommend this book. If you prefer pills over a radically different dietsyle, here is an article from The Mayo Clinic describing these Erectile dysfunction Your doctor will make sure you’re getting the right treatment for any health problems that could be causing or worsening your erectile dysfunction. Oral medications are a successful erectile dysfunction treatment for many men. They include:
Sildenafil (Viagra) Tadalafil (Cialis) Vardenafil (Levitra, Staxyn)
These drugs enhance the effects of nitric oxide, a natural chemical your body produces that relaxes muscles in the penis. These medications may not fix your erectile dysfunction immediately. Possibly not at all I would think. These medications may not work or may be dangerous for you if you:
Take nitrate drugs Take a blood-thinning (anticoagulant) medication, Have heart disease or heart failure Have had a stroke Have very low blood pressure Have uncontrolled diabetes
Of course, Diabetes would also be cured with the Whole Food, Plant-Based, low Salt, oil or sugar diet-style. There are also pumps, sugeries and implants, self-injections, suppositories, testosterone treatments and phychological counceling. Conclusion E. D. can affect any of us. It affects so many aspects of the lives of those who have this embarrassing situation. It’s caused by clogged arteries from the high fat American Diet. It’s just another symptom of heart disease, which can be quite easily cured with WFPB dietstyle.
