A Straw to Grasp
Posted: Fri May 09, 2025 5:57 pm
Over the years I've been struck by the number of young guys with ED not responding to PDE5 inhibitors. ("Young" to me is under sixty.) Some don't respond to injections. The problem is usually chalked up to the elusive venous leak, which no one can seem to repair. "NeverEnough" and others inquire hopefully about new drugs that might be coming along.
Over the last five years or so, real doctors have said that ED could be the precursor to heart attacks, since a common cause of heart attacks is cholesterol blocking heart arteries, and the same cholesterol might be first blocking the smaller penile arteries. That got me remembering Dean Ornish, MD, and his cholesterol-clearing very-low-fat diet, which he created around 1990. There has been criticism of this vegetarian diet, which you can see in a Wikipedia article, but Bill Clinton is said to credit it for keeping him alive. It's been more recently approved by Medicare. How fast does the diet clear cholesterol? Does it even clear penile artery cholesterol? "qcswral" said last year that it helped his ED, but I could find no others. I have never used it, and have no medical or biology or nutritional education, but I suspect that everyone is different, as has been shown in many FrankTalk discussions on every topic.
Anyone interested can read dieters' reviews of Ornish's six books on Amazon.
FT guys waiting and hoping for new ED drugs or techniques have been recommended implants to start having sex soon, and not waste time, and that might be sensible advice too.
