Erectile Dysfunction: Reasons & Solutions

Herbal impotence treatments are growing in popularity. Slowly but surely, more men are willing to seek treatment for this condition that significantly impacts one of life’s most precious pastimes. If you have signs of impotence, read on to find out how an herbal remedies can alleviate this problem.

The most notable symptom of impotence is erectile dysfunction. In simple terms, this means a man is either not able to achieve an erection at all, or he has difficulty maintaining an erection long enough to penetrate and/or fulfill his sexual partner.

Causes of Erectile Dysfunction:

• Inadequate blood flow to the penis due to poor circulation or narrowed arteries is one cause of erectile dysfunction.
• A change in hormone levels, particularly low testosterone also plays a role.
• Problems within a person’s nervous system can also impact a man’s erection. The spinal cord acts as the main line of communication between the brain and the male genitals so any disruption to the nervous system will negatively affect this communication

An herbal impotence treatment that is made with the right combination of ingredients will target each of these areas.

* Siberian (Oriental) Ginseng, also known as eleuthero coccus semiosis has been heralded in eastern civilizations for decades as the herb that will increase a man’s vitality. Specifically this herb helps improve blood flow to the penis (and throughout the body). With more blood where it is needed, Siberian Ginseng greatly improves stamina.

* Smilax Ornate restores potency levels by assisting in the production of the male hormone testosterone. The steroidal saparins in this ingredient are believed to be capable of copying the functionality of some hormones found in humans.

* Glycyrrhiza Glabrate also helps promote the production of another important hormone, hydrocortisone by stimulating the adrenal cortex.

* Turn aria Aphrodisiacs stimulates the nervous system which in turn increases a man’s sex drive and overall energy level.

* Kola Vera is another performance stimulant.

Try these Natural Home Remedies for UTI

• Stay Hydrated. Drinking plenty of water is good for your body and it can also dilute and help flush out the bacteria that is causing the UTI. This is especially helpful as a preventative measure.

• Apply Heat. A UTI can be very painful. Heat applied to the abdomen, right over the bladder, can help soothe the aches and pains. Try this when the discomfort gets difficult to handle.

• Turn To Cranberry Juice. This tried-and-true method of getting rid of UTIs has been around for decades. Though studies are not conclusive, many people swear that their UTIs are lessened or eliminated by regular helpings of cranberry juice. But a word of caution: Don’t try this if you take the blood thinner warfarin, as bleeding could result.

• Avoid Irritant Foods. Processed foods that can make a UTI worse include cheese, dairy products, chocolate and spicy foods. Try to avoid all processed foods if you can, especially processed flours and sugars, and indulge in veggies and fruits instead.

• Avoid Artificial Sweetener. Artificial sweeteners such as aspartame can irritate the bladder and make a UTI worse. Avoiding these for a few weeks while you wait for the UTI to clear is a good idea.

• Try Baking Soda. A touch of baking soda in your glass of water – about one teaspoon – can help flush out your system, thus getting the bacteria out of your body faster.

• Eat Plenty of Blueberries. The antioxidant properties of blueberries can help with a host of ailments, including UTIs. They are also from the same plant family as cranberries, so the juice can help clear things up too.

• Indulge In Pineapples. The enzyme Bromelain is found in pineapples, and studies have shown that it can help clear up a UTI, especially when used in conjunction with antibiotics. So eat up!

• Try Vitamin C. This vitamin helps acidify the urine, which prevents bacteria from taking hold. Some doctors prescribe at least 5,000 mg of this per day – check with your doctor to make sure this is okay for you before you start taking such high doses.

• Go To the Bathroom. This sounds very simple, but it’s true – going when you feel the urge means you can fight off UTIs before they have a chance to start. So don’t hold your urine! Get to the bathroom as soon as you can when you feel the urge to go.

• Wear Cotton Clothing. Comfortable cotton clothing can help your skin breathe, and that can stop bacteria. Men should choose boxer shorts, and women should choose underwear with a cotton lining. If you already have a UTI, cotton makes a much more comfortable undergarment.

• Ditch Those Nasty Drinks. Drinks that include caffeine, such as sodas or coffee, or those that contain citrus juices might make a UTI worse. The same goes for alcohol. In addition, drinks like this dehydrate you, and that can make a UTI linger.

• Take OTC Pain Killers. Don’t suffer through the pain if you don’t have to! Over the counter pain relievers can work wonders for the pain of a UTI. But remember that these medications only mask the pain, so you still need to try out other home remedies at the same time.
• Clean Up Before And After Sexy Time. When you and your partner make love, be sure to urinate immediately afterward to help remove any bacteria that might have found its way to your urethra. Clean the area before you make love as well, to cut down on passing UTI bacteria around. Finally, if you use a diaphragm, consider using condoms instead – diaphragms might make UTIs worse.
