Everyone knows living a healthy lifestyle helps the body run at an optimal level. This includes the ability to hold an erection. By changing some of your lifestyle habits right now, you will have more energy, better health, and the ability to be a hero in the bedroom.
Change these habits to prevent embarrassing intimate moments:
#1 Smoking
Thinking of lighting that cigarette after a romp through the sheets? You might want to reconsider if you want more passionate nights in the future. Smoking hardens the arteries reducing the blood flow to the penis. Good circulation is the key to a lasting erection.
#2 Drinking Alcohol
Before you ask the bartender for one more, you might want to consider what it’s doing to your erection. Drinking in moderation is fine, but if you drink more than two alcoholic beverages a day, it could restrict blood flow to the penis and reduce the body’s production of testosterone. Low testosterone also decreases the desire to have sex.
#3 Drug Use
Marijuana, cocaine, and other drugs may get you in trouble with the law, and arrest your ability to maintain an erection. These drugs damage blood vessels that carry the blood necessary for a lasting erection.
#4 Being Inactive
Take a brisk walk, go to the gym, or find some friends for a pickup game of basketball. Physical activity keeps the body healthy and allows blood to pump in the areas you need it most. Shut off the television, get off the couch, and get the heart pumping. You’ll feel better and so will your lover.
#5 Excessive Stress
Prolonged stress takes a toll on the body. If your mind constantly races with stress and anxiety, it may lead to temporary erectile dysfunction. Take some time to clear your mind with meditation, exercise, and shedding the unnecessary stressors in your life. A clear head will get you in the mood much quicker.
Don’t let lousy lifestyle choices ruin your chances for great sex. By making simple lifestyle changes, you may never have to worry about the embarrassment of erectile dysfunction.
