Transcripts

Speaker:

This podcast is for you, the Modern Man. I'm Dr Anne Truong,

Speaker:

your host. I'm an intimate health medical doctor and best

Speaker:

selling author of the book, Erectile Dysfunction Fix. I'll

Speaker:

do a deep dive into sexual health and performance and how

Speaker:

it affects men of all ages and backgrounds. So let's get

Speaker:

started, and be sure to visit my website at

Speaker:

sexualhealthformenpodcast.com for more information and

Speaker:

resources from the show. See you on the inside.

Speaker:

Hello there, Modern Man. I'm Dr Anne Truong. I'm a sexual health

Speaker:

specialist, has treated over 7000 men with ED. In today's

Speaker:

episode, we're gonna talk about what are the natural ways to get

Speaker:

harder erection, and I'm just gonna go dive into it. So that

Speaker:

way you have some actionable item. And stay tuned all the way

Speaker:

to the end so that way you be surprised at what number 9 and

Speaker:

number 10. Okay, so you ready? Have a pen and pencil. Here we

Speaker:

go.

Speaker:

There are variety of evidence based lifestyle and dietary

Speaker:

changes that can help men achieve a harder erection

Speaker:

without medication. Now these approaches focuses on optimizing

Speaker:

blood flow, hormone, psychological well being, and

Speaker:

also communication. Number one, exercise regularly. I know I

Speaker:

sound like blah blah blah. You keep hearing the doctor say this

Speaker:

over and over and over again. I can't stress to you how

Speaker:

important this is, because studies have shown that regular

Speaker:

exercises beat Viagra, beat Cialis, beat any medication that

Speaker:

you can take, and even supplement that you can take.

Speaker:

Now, which exercise? It could be a brisk walk or fast walk, or

Speaker:

even swimming, or even stationary bike, or even biking

Speaker:

outside. What this does is it increases your heart rate. When

Speaker:

it increases your heart rate, your blood vessels start

Speaker:

becoming more flexible, and therefore you have more blood

Speaker:

flow down there. Now studies have shown that just 30 minutes

Speaker:

of walking a day is associated with significant reduction in

Speaker:

erectile dysfunction risk. Now you should aim for a total 150

Speaker:

minutes a week. Thought that work out to be probably 30

Speaker:

minutes every other day, or four times a week.

Speaker:

Number two, eat a nutritious, balanced diet. And I sound like

Speaker:

blah, blah, blah, blah, blah again, but I can't stress this

Speaker:

enough. Again, studies have shown that diet, a well balanced

Speaker:

diet with less processed food, works better than Cialis and

Speaker:

Viagra. And diets such as rich in fruits, eating more

Speaker:

vegetables and multi grain and lean meat such as chicken and

Speaker:

fish and nuts all contribute to increase in nitric oxide

Speaker:

production, increase in better blood vessels and therefore

Speaker:

better for erection. Food that are high antioxidant, like

Speaker:

berries, dark chocolate and nuts are great for increasing blood

Speaker:

flow.

Speaker:

Number three, maintaining a healthy weight. Now what do I

Speaker:

mean by healthy weight? Healthy weight is that you avoid to have

Speaker:

that abdominal fat, because when you have that abdominal fat that

Speaker:

is linked to heart disease, as well as reducing testosterone,

Speaker:

because in that fat, it will make more estrogen and usurping

Speaker:

your testosterone, and therefore it will impair your erection. So

Speaker:

what is a healthy weight? I want to give you this formula. So

Speaker:

type this formula out. So healthy weight is calculated by

Speaker:

body mass index. The body mass index is a calculation based on

Speaker:

height and weight. It doesn't account for muscles or fat, but

Speaker:

you should shoot for a BMI between 18.5 to 25 and so you

Speaker:

can use the BMI formula as pounds, your weight in pounds

Speaker:

times 703, divided by your height in inches. Okay, height

Speaker:

in inches square, square, not times, but square. Again, BMI

Speaker:

formula is weight in pounds times 703, divided by your

Speaker:

height square. So that's will kind of give you the range,

Speaker:

whether you're between 18.5 to 25. You will consider overweight

Speaker:

if your BMI is between 25 to 30, and then 30 and above is obese.

Speaker:

Because weight is considered a risk factor for heart disease.

Speaker:

Now, how do you distinguish between muscle and fat? That's

Speaker:

when I recommend getting biometric scale. Check in the

Speaker:

link below here in description to go to my Amazon store for the

Speaker:

scale that I recommend that when you step on it, it will measure

Speaker:

your percent body fat and your percent muscle mass. And so

Speaker:

those of you that have more muscle mass, then you may be

Speaker:

weighing a little bit more, but you're not necessarily obese. So

Speaker:

just kind of keep that in mind. But my rule of thumb is that

Speaker:

your waist, you should keep that probably between at least under

Speaker:

38 inches at this point. But when you start to sit down and

Speaker:

you have a thigh that sticks out and you can grab like the width

Speaker:

of your hand, that's probably not good either. So I'm really a

Speaker:

practical person. You may not need a BMI. I'm more like, okay,

Speaker:

just give me the lowdown on it. So I just give you the lowdown

Speaker:

on it now at this point. And you know if you are overweight, so

Speaker:

that's for the weight.

Speaker:

Number four is limiting alcohol and avoiding smoking. How much

Speaker:

is too much alcohol? Probably no more than three drinks a week,

Speaker:

probably say your should be around 14 drinks a week at this

Speaker:

time and just no smoking period. There is no midway for smoking

Speaker:

at this time, because alcahol and smoking affect blood vessels

Speaker:

and penis tissue. Reducing it will reduce your blood flow. So

Speaker:

keep that in mind.

Speaker:

Then number five is managing stress such as performance,

Speaker:

anxiety and depression are common contributors to ED. So if

Speaker:

you exercise, it will help deal with stress doing just simple

Speaker:

things such as meditation. There is a free app called Calm that

Speaker:

you can download on your phone and breathing exercises with it.

Speaker:

It goes a long way, and nothing is better than having a

Speaker:

communication with your partner, spend time with your family.

Speaker:

Okay, Modern Man, you are not alone and you don't have to

Speaker:

suffer anymore. ED can feel isolating, frustrating, and even

Speaker:

defeating. The endless guessing, the quiet shame, the weight of

Speaker:

not feeling like yourself is exhausting. But here's the

Speaker:

truth, you are not broken. You are not alone. You don't have to

Speaker:

figure this out alone anymore. The Get Wood Now Boost Program

Speaker:

is your step by step, path to sexual confidence and

Speaker:

restoration. No more suffering in silence, no more trial and

Speaker:

error, just real solution, real result and the confidence you

Speaker:

deserve. It's time to take back your power on your term. Let's

Speaker:

get this journey started together. Check out the course

Speaker:

at getwoodnow.com. I'll see you there.

Speaker:

Now, number six, it's getting good sleep. Refer to my episode

Speaker:

I talked earlier about how important sleep is for your

Speaker:

erection, because when you're in sleep, you have REM sleep. REM

Speaker:

is when your testosterone is being made, and also is when you

Speaker:

have morning wood. And so if you have less REM sleep, then you

Speaker:

can have less testosterone and more at risk for ED. You want to

Speaker:

aim for about seven to eight hours of sleep per night at this

Speaker:

point.

Speaker:

And the number seven to optimize and monitor your testosterone

Speaker:

level. Low testosterone can contribute to weaker erection.

Speaker:

So if you have low energy, decreased sex drive and mood

Speaker:

changes, consider getting your testosterone level checked

Speaker:

through blood work. It's easily done. You can get it done with

Speaker:

your primary care doctor. Make sure you get total testosterone,

Speaker:

free testosterone and SHBG levels to really measure your

Speaker:

true testosterone level.

Speaker:

Okay, number eight is strengthen your pelvic muscle. You know I'm

Speaker:

a big advocate of pelvic muscles. So strengthen those

Speaker:

little muscles that are between your scrotum and your rectum.

Speaker:

And these muscles actually help with erection, orgasm and also

Speaker:

ejaculation. And they're small, but they're mighty muscles. So

Speaker:

how do you activate these musces? Those are the same

Speaker:

muscle that actually start and stop your urine stream. So you

Speaker:

just lie down, put your hand down there, and you can feel the

Speaker:

contraction like you can feel it would start your urine stream

Speaker:

and stop your urine stream. You want to hold it for optimally,

Speaker:

for about four seconds and then release. You want to do about a

Speaker:

set of 10 twice a day. It takes practice because 99.9% of all of

Speaker:

you guys have very weak pelvic muscles. You'll have a hard time

Speaker:

holding it for four seconds. It will get better as you practice.

Speaker:

Number nine, you'll be surprised to hear this, but yes, caffeine

Speaker:

in moderation, because caffeine improve blood flow and relax

Speaker:

penile muscle, potentially enhancing erection. So coffee

Speaker:

and tea are good sources, but avoid excessive intake. What is

Speaker:

excessive? Excessive is probably more than about 21 ounces a day,

Speaker:

or three cups of coffee a day. And just be really careful how

Speaker:

much sugar and cream you add in your coffee. Try to drink black

Speaker:

coffee if you can, so that way you don't have to add it back

Speaker:

from the cream and the sugars. Coffee and black tea are the

Speaker:

best because it has the highest antioxidant. And tea, you can

Speaker:

probably have three cups of tea a day at this point.

Speaker:

And number 10, of course, is penis pumping. When you use

Speaker:

penis pump exercises your penis it brings in oxygen, help with

Speaker:

muscle flexibility, as well as stretching the penis muscle in

Speaker:

order for it to not have any type of atrophy or shrinkage.

Speaker:

And it also kind of get your penis ready for what it needs to

Speaker:

do. So I call it taking the penis to the gym with the penis

Speaker:

pump. Something as easy as a pump can really do magic down

Speaker:

there for you. And I want to take the penis pump from dirty

Speaker:

taboo to using it as a medical device. In fact, it is an FDA

Speaker:

approved medical device to help with ED. But instead of calling

Speaker:

it the penis pump, it's called vacuum erection device, BED. So

Speaker:

I hope you find this useful. It's the 10 natural things that

Speaker:

you can do to get harder erection right now. That's

Speaker:

probably not going to cost you a lot of money, that actually

Speaker:

work, that is straightforward and simple to do, and something

Speaker:

that you can do right now.
