Low libido isn't just about aging. Everything from high blood pressure to
Speaker:smoking and poor sleep is destroying your sex drive. While treatments like shockwave
Speaker:therapy and stem cells can force blood flow back and restore function, they are
Speaker:not magic pills. If you want permanent results, you have to fix the root cause.
Speaker:Here is how a Mediterranean diet, targeted exercise, and advanced therapies work
Speaker:together to fix your libido.
Speaker:This podcast is for you, the Modern Man. I'm Dr Anne Truong, your host. I'm an
Speaker:intimate health medical doctor and best selling author of the book, Erectile
Speaker:Dysfunction Fix. I'll do a deep dive into sexual health and performance and how it
Speaker:affects men of all ages and backgrounds. So let's get started, and be sure to visit
Speaker:my website at sexualhealthformenpodcast.com for more
Speaker:information and resources from the show. See you on the inside.
Speaker:So, what are some of the causes of low libido? Low libido means low sex drive,
Speaker:right? Could be a lot. If you're distracted, if you're anxious, you're
Speaker:depressed, you're gonna have low libido. You work a lot, you're tired. You're gonna
Speaker:have low libido. So it's related to your lifestyle, your stress level, your sleep
Speaker:level. Because when you're sleep deprived and when you're not good mentally up here,
Speaker:you're not gonna be in the mood for intercourse, right? So that makes sense.
Speaker:But one of the things that condition that can contribute to low libido is low
Speaker:testosterone. Testosterone contribute to man libido as well as correction. But it
Speaker:has other benefits such as building bone mass, building muscle mass, burning more
Speaker:fat. And so when you have low libido, the first thing is don't blame it on
Speaker:testosterone. It could be multifactorial thing as well too. Like as if you're not
Speaker:exercising, that you will not have energy. When you don't have energy, you don't have
Speaker:libido.
Speaker:I'm telling you, I have a phrase: fix your sex life by fixing your health. Fix your
Speaker:sex life by fixing your health. Focusing on fixing your health first, your sex life
Speaker:will follow. Okay, so I help you improve your sex life by improving your health,
Speaker:because when you have good health, your sex life is just secondary benefit. So
Speaker:don't try to just try to fix the sex life without fixing the health. You gotta fix
Speaker:the health first, then your sex life will follow. Does that make sense?
Speaker:So how do you fix your health? Let's say you have diabetes. How do you fix your
Speaker:health? Well, you fix your health by following a Mediterranean diet. When you
Speaker:follow Mediterranean diet, your blood sugar will decrease, and then you will
Speaker:lose weight. Fix your health, and you will fix your sex life. So you have diabetes
Speaker:and high blood pressure. You follow Mediterranean diet, your blood sugar will
Speaker:come down. You exercise, your blood pressure will come down. About 30 minutes,
Speaker:three to four times a week. Your blood pressure will come down. You don't need a
Speaker:blood pressure pill. Exercise could be lowest and moderate exercise at met
Speaker:between three to seven. That means that if you're exercising and it's hard for you to
Speaker:count to 10, whether it's walking or stairs or running, you want to get to a
Speaker:range of about moderate exercise. And then, how do you fix your health? You fix
Speaker:your health by let's say you have high cholesterol because of what you eat.
Speaker:Again, follow the Mediterranean diet that will bring down your cholesterol level.
Speaker:Because cholesterol, high blood pressure, and diabetes are the three top
Speaker:contributors of ED. It causes inflammation. It causes decreased blood
Speaker:flow. The other contributor is porn. Porn messes up with your brain, so it's hard
Speaker:for you to get aroused when you're with a real person. The other thing is smoking.
Speaker:Stop smoking. The moment you start smoking, you're gonna kill your erection.
Speaker:So those are mainly the lifestyle factors.
Speaker:I try to make things simple for you. I try to make things straightforward. It's not
Speaker:that complicated. You know, you gotta fix your health, fix your sex life. Fix your
Speaker:sex life, you're gonna fix your health. How do you fix your health? I just give
Speaker:the most common thing that throw off your health is overweight, high blood pressure,
Speaker:diabetes, high cholesterol. Because if you just do what I just said and following the
Speaker:Mediterranean diet and exercise, then you will improve your health. Lose some
Speaker:weight, and when you do that, you're gonna be able to fix your sex life as well too.
Speaker:So it all correlate with it.
Speaker:Okay, Modern Man. If you're struggling with weak erection, low energy, the food
Speaker:you eat could be the big part of the problem. One of the best research pathways
Speaker:to boost circulation, support healthy testosterone and improve sexual
Speaker:performance is the Mediterranean diet. It's packed with food that open up your
Speaker:blood vessel, lower inflammation, and fuel your hormone, naturally. I've seen men
Speaker:notice real improvement in both energy and erection within weeks when they shift to
Speaker:this style of eating. So check out the Mediterranean diet link right here below,
Speaker:and get that as soon as you can. Stronger testosterone and better erection.
Speaker:Stress is the number one. It's one of the top erection killers because in our
Speaker:everyday lives we have to recognize that. But then stress lowers testosterone
Speaker:levels. Stress increases inflammation. Stress decreases blood flow. And knowing
Speaker:that you have high stress, then it's best to learn how to manage that. How do you
Speaker:manage your stress? Sometimes the counselor will help. They will provide
Speaker:some feedback for you. But sometimes they're doing the stuff that you like to
Speaker:do, like you like basketball, you like baseball. Do more of that. Calm your mind
Speaker:and decrease that stress. Do whatever things that you like doing. All right. So
Speaker:that is the fourth pillar is the stress. And my point is, it does take work from
Speaker:you to restore your sex life. Again, you got to be committed to it. For women, we
Speaker:have an outlet. We talk to other women. That's like our outlet. For men, you may
Speaker:not be a big talker, so I would encourage you to do the things you like, hang around
Speaker:the people that make you relax, and also cut down on the drinking as well too.
Speaker:You're allowed one to two drink a day, but anything more than 14 a week is too much.
Speaker:So you may want to kind of keep the drinking more to social and not an
Speaker:everyday wind down type like thing. You stay here, Fredericksburg. We'll be able
Speaker:to work together to push because the treatment in my office with the stem cell,
Speaker:the Botox, the shock wave therapy, the pulse electromagnetic therapy, the Kegel,
Speaker:just give you a boost in healing, in getting things started with increasing
Speaker:blood flow. So it cut your time in half and getting result and help you get result
Speaker:quicker, and it boosts your whole system up for getting more blood flow down there.
Speaker:The bottom line: even when you get the treatment, you still need to continue
Speaker:following the Mediterranean diet and also exercise and follow up with sleep for
Speaker:seven hours and of course doing the penis pump. Those are the one that come into our
Speaker:Now, if you have sleep problems, stress, and anxiety, depression, that's in the
Speaker:office. Usually, just do penis pump and taking the multivitamin, the nitric oxide,
Speaker:brain. So the five signals that you get to get you aroused, like the eyes, the nose,
Speaker:the mouth, what you hear, and the hand, those five signals send stimulatory
Speaker:messenger to the brain, would then get filtered through depression and anxiety
Speaker:the libido plus and vitamin D3 multivitamin and nitric oxide. The nitric
Speaker:and stress, get filtered through, and when it get filtered through, the noise will be
Speaker:lower, and then it will reach then to the hormone. The hormone get released, but the
Speaker:noise will be less because it's being filter through your anxiety, stress, and
Speaker:oxide is at our store, ED No More, and it's a white bottle, and it has arugula in
Speaker:insomnia. So, having said that, one of the treatment we're doing in the office is
Speaker:called the far infrared with terahertz treatment, where we use a wand that has
Speaker:quartz attached to it, and we go over the actually the kidney acupuncture point as
Speaker:it, which has the highest content of nitric oxide. The main thing I want to say
Speaker:well as the sympathetic parasympathetic points in the body. So we hit the spine,
Speaker:then we hit the kidney meridian, then we hit the vagus nerve, where we want to calm
Speaker:is that you gotta kind of follow up with changing your diet and your exercise
Speaker:down the sympathetic nerve and increase the parasympathetic nerve messages. Those
Speaker:are the main things right now. And then controlling the diabetes as usual. If you
Speaker:want to see if we can work together, go to this link right here says Renew With Dr
Speaker:because it will get you in trouble in the long term.
