Dealing with Erectile Dysfunction

You’ve seen the TV ads for drugs, but are there effective natural alternatives? The answer is yes.

Erectile dysfunction (ED) refers to the inability to get or keep an erection for sexual intercourse. Once thought to be a psychological problem, ED has since been shown to be much more of a physical issue. However, psychological factors can sometimes come into play as well, compounding the problem.

Diseases of the cardiovascular and circulatory systems account for almost 50 percent of all ED cases. This includes atherosclerosis (hardening of the arteries), peripheral vascular disease, heart attack, and high blood pressure. In fact, ED is often a red flag for many underlying health problems, including diabetes, neurological diseases, hormone imbalances, BPH, sleep apnea, COPD, and depression.
