12 Tactics To Deal with Erectile Dysfunction

9Refocus your attention

The easiest way to relax is to refocus is with your partner herself! Concentrate on the more sensual aspects of intimacy such as prolonged foreplay and enjoying each other’s company without worrying about an erection at all. The skin is the largest sensual organ that can generate feelings, so you know know where you have to invest your time and energy more now!

10Avoid whole-body stimulants

Caffeine and other similar stimulants constrict the smooth muscle that needs to relax before an erection occurs. So even if coffee is touted as potency enhancer it’s a blatant lie.

11Try to Relax

This can be explained in a simple way, your nervous system operates in 2 ways: the sympathetic nervous system and the parasympathetic nervous system. When the body has the sympathetic nerves dominating our systems, we are in perpetual alert mode. The adrenaline rush prepares for a fight or a flight stance. Blood is pulled from your organ to your brains and muscles, which happens with men who are too anxious about their performance. This results in their body flooding with norepinephrine, an adrenal hormone which is not what you want for physical intimacy. The key is to RELAX and let your parasympathetic system take the driving seat. Signals that travel now will direct the nerves and arteries of your lower regions to expand and let more blood flow in creating a desired erection.

12Eat more watermelon

Well yes, you read it right, those juicy, red-fleshed watermelon is the new aphrodisiac. Scientists have found out that phytonutrients in watermelon have a Viagra-like effect on the body. Further, this fruit contains citrulline, a compound which has relaxing tendencies. Unlike viagra, citrulline does not target just one particular organ of the body but encourages blood vessels to relax all throughout the body which is great news for the immune system, circulatory system and the heart. Enjoy a generous slab of this cooling fruit which would cool you and ready you for some real action.

13Get more physical and have more sessions with your partner

A Finnish study has concluded that men aged between 55-75 who were physical less than once a week had twice the incidence of ED as compared to men who did it at least once a week, so the natural conclusion drawn here is that being regular appears to protect a man from ED.
