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. Do you know that hydration can really

Speaker:

affect your sex drive and even your erection. Well, stay tuned

Speaker:

to find out. Now, hydration means water intake. On a daily

Speaker:

basis can have a significant influence on your sex life,

Speaker:

especially your libido or your sex drive, your erection and

Speaker:

overall satisfaction in your sex life for both men and women.

Speaker:

Now let's start with why. Why did this happen? Because an

Speaker:

adequate amount of water supports hormone production,

Speaker:

meaning testosterone. Testosterone needs water in

Speaker:

order to be made in the body, and testosterone is crucial for

Speaker:

the male libido and sex function. And water is essential

Speaker:

for blood flow. It is essential for maintaining blood volume and

Speaker:

proper circulation. Dehydration reduces blood volume and can

Speaker:

cause blood vessel to constrict or get smaller, impairing blood

Speaker:

flow to the genitals and also making it difficult to achieve

Speaker:

and maintain erection, especially in men, and also even

Speaker:

arousal in women. Now hydration or water is vital for natural

Speaker:

lubrication, because dehydration can lead to dryness in women,

Speaker:

and dehydration can lead to less semen volume in men. And also

Speaker:

dehydration or less water can contribute to your mood and

Speaker:

energy level, causing you to feel tired, irritable, causing

Speaker:

you to have headaches, and even a depressed mood, all which can

Speaker:

really make sexual desire and less receptive to even a sexual

Speaker:

activity. So the libido and sexual performance is important

Speaker:

because it's related to hormone and then less water also

Speaker:

contribute to less energy and also impair blood flow. We know

Speaker:

that if you have decreased blood flow, that's gonna affect your

Speaker:

erection. So recommendation is stay consistently hydrated.

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:

How much water should you take? So I want to give you some

Speaker:

practical guidelines here. How much water should you take that

Speaker:

is adequate? Well, they say whatever your weight is, half of

Speaker:

it and ounces. Let's say you're 180 pound man. Half of 180 is

Speaker:

90. You should drink 90 ounces of water a day. Typically, the

Speaker:

recommendation is 8 to 10 glasses of water a day. But I'm

Speaker:

thinking like, well, how much is the glass? Like small glass, a

Speaker:

wine glass, or 20 ounce glass. So I typically just say about

Speaker:

half of your body weight in ounces. And typically, like what

Speaker:

I have right here, this cup is 20 ounces. If you're 180 pound

Speaker:

man, you need 90 ounces, and you need to drink about at least

Speaker:

four of this a day. So it's good to get, like, water bottle that

Speaker:

has some predictable volume that you know, so that way you don't

Speaker:

have to say to yourself, Well, I need to drink 4 of this a day.

Speaker:

One of my patients did this. He bought, like, 4 of this, and he

Speaker:

put it on the counter, and then he count how many he drink in a

Speaker:

day. And if he needs to drink 4 or 5, then he just go through it

Speaker:

throughout the day. You will notice that when you have

Speaker:

adequate hydration, you have better energy, you sleep better,

Speaker:

your mood is actually feel better. And of course, you will

Speaker:

go to the bathroom more and your urine color typically should be

Speaker:

lighter than a yellowish color. They would say probably a little

Speaker:

lighter than lemonade color. Know that dehydration can also

Speaker:

cause dizziness and light headers as well, too, and even

Speaker:

lack of concentration, because sometimes you may feel a little

Speaker:

tired today, you may blame it on fatigue, and then you drink some

Speaker:

coffee where maybe you should start drinking some water first,

Speaker:

before you drink that coffee. I'm guilty of that. I should be

Speaker:

drinking more water if I'm busy during the day, I may not have

Speaker:

adequate water intake. First thing I do is I feel tired, is I

Speaker:

grab my water bottle and drink the whole thing, probably half

Speaker:

of it, pretty quickly. Just so that you know that water can can

Speaker:

really contribute to your sex drive, your sexual function, and

Speaker:

just overall mood and everyday feeling. So think about drinking

Speaker:

adequate water about half of your body weight in ounces.

Speaker:

Especially just know if you're exercising, you probably need to

Speaker:

increase your water intake by about 20%. And now, with the

Speaker:

weather getting warmer, you may want to increase your water

Speaker:

intake by 20% as well. The hotter it is, the more water you

Speaker:

need to take and know also that alcohol and caffeine, like

Speaker:

coffee, is a diuretic. Means that it increases how many times

Speaker:

you go to the bathroom, the volume you go to bathroom. So

Speaker:

when you're drinking alcohol or drinking coffee, make sure that

Speaker:

you also increase your water intake. So things to think about

Speaker:

as the weather changes and as you're going to the weekend with

Speaker:

increasing alcohol intake, and if you're taking caffeine, how

Speaker:

much is more than caffeine? More than three cups of coffee a day.

Speaker:

Speaker:
