Why Your Diet May Be Causing Your Erectile Dysfunction

There's one issue all these studies overlook: carb consumption.

A diet that is high in fat and low in carbs does not increase heart disease risk.

• Meta-analysis of prospective cohort studies evaluating the association of saturated fat with cardiovascular disease: During 5-23 y of follow-up of 347,747 subjects, 11,006 developed CHD or stroke. Intake of saturated fat was not associated with an increased risk of CHD, stroke, or CVD. (source)

• The smaller, more artery-clogging particles are increased not by saturated fat, but by sugary foods and an excess of carbohydrates, Dr. Chowdhury said. “It’s the high carbohydrate or sugary diet that should be the focus of dietary guidelines,” he said. “If anything is driving your low-density lipoproteins in a more adverse way, it’s carbohydrates.” (source)

• New research links diabetes, heart disease risk to diet high in carbs, not fat (source)

I can post more sources if needed.

The diet you recommend will lover your T level and your mood. Ideal for a christian monk who wants to pray to god all day. Real men eat grass fed beef and wild fish.

Have you seen the correlation that vegetarian women are bitching all the time? (Certainly no need to prove it because it is an axiom in the manosphere.) This is because the lack of Cholesterol makes them mad. Lack of cholesterol also makes men mad.

If you want to be healthy eat and live like a hunter gatherer. Avoid all the modern stuff - like corn oil and feminism.

Dietary cholesterol has very low if any impact on your blood cholesterol. Cholesterol is mainly affected by: exercise, genetics and saturated fat intake

CVD is not the only cause of ED.

Dude.... Most of this information is wrong. 85% of the cholesterol in your blood is manufactured by your liver.

What you need to avoid is trans fats. Trans fats are oxidated, and oxidated fats cause LDL cholesterol to create plague formations on arteries.

Article explanation here. Here is the important information -

"Dr. Fred Kummerow, an emeritus professor of comparative biosciences, recently published a paper in the American Journal of Cardiovascular Disease reviewing his life’s work of 60 years on the dietary factors—especially oxidized cholesterol–that contribute to heart disease. In Dr. Kummerow’s view and the view of an increasing number of experts, the primary cause of heart disease is oxidized cholesterol and fats. When fats degrade, free radicals “steal” electrons and a free radical chain reaction mechanism ensues, leading to cell damage.

According to Kummerow, there are three diet and lifestyle factors that underlie the current epidemic of heart disease, each related to oxidized cholesterol and fats. They are:

the consumption of commercially fried foods such as fried chicken and french fries
the consumption of excess polyunsaturated fatty acids from vegetable oils
cigarette smoking

Kummerow cites research from his own lab as well as other researchers’ findings on lipid metabolism and heart disease which reveal the underlying mechanisms linking oxidized cholesterol and fats (and trans fats) to heart disease. The three factors above, he asserts, along with the consumption of trans fatty acids from partially hydrogenated vegetable oil, are the dietary and lifestyle factors that most lead to atherosclerosis. Atherosclerosis is the process by which the arteries become hardened and build up with plaques leading to heart attacks and sudden death.

Over the years, Kummerow and his collaborators found two distinct ways in which oxidized cholesterol and fats lead to atherosclerosis: they enhance calcification of the arteries and promote the synthesis of a compound that increases blood clotting. “Oxidized lipids contribute to heart disease both by increasing deposition of calcium on the arterial wall, a major hallmark of atherosclerosis, and by interrupting blood flow, a major contributor to heart attack and sudden death,” writes Kummerow in his review.

One of Kummerow’s main contributions to the growing body of research on oxidized cholesterol has to do with a compound called sphingomyelin. Kummerow found that people with heart disease have higher levels sphingomyelin in the walls of their arteries, especially at the branch points of the arteries that supply blood to the heart, which is where the most blockages occur. They also have significantly more oxidized cholesterol in their blood and tissues than people without heart disease. The researchers found that the more oxidized cholesterol in the blood, the more sphingomyelin in the walls of the arteries. And the more sphingomyelin, the more arteries become calcified.

While other studies have also demonstrated a link between higher sphingomyelin levels and the calcification of coronary arteries, Kummerow’s team discovered the mechanism by which this occurred. They noted that lipids like sphingomyelin develop a negative charge in the presence of certain salts, explaining the attraction of positively charged calcium to the arterial wall when high amounts of sphingomyelin are present."

Agreed, but your post will be unpopular here. TRP seems to believe that cholesterol=testosterone therefore high sat fat diets are the best.

Don't bite my head off here but what am I to do? I went from 120lbs to 180lbs, utilising various routines and supplements, I retained one constant, GOMAD, or a gallon of full fat milk a day (I drank 2L but you get the gist). I was never a big eater, in fact I struggle to finish most meals, drinking milk allows me to get my calories up without making me eat until I puke.

DrCodswallop · 2017-01-08T23:03:55+00:00

other than changing diet do you recommend taking any types of pills daily that enhances blood flow or anything else?

This is very good and truthful information. I see so much mis-information about diabetes, fat and weight gain, it drives me nuts when people say avoid carbs to lose weight when its carbs + fat together that causes weight gain.

After reading your comments it seems you have done you're research however I'm honestly not surprised by your down votes, red pill is a scene at this point, no longer a philosophy, you simply don't fit into the cliche, but than again this is every single group in existence

Erectile dysfunction is a cardiovascular disease

Not necessarily, as many a thread on this very sub has shown

What impact would eating 3 eggs a day have on me? I couple that with regular exercise and an otherwise healthy lifestyle (healthy food, no alcohol etc.). Im 29 years old but from time to time I have had issue getting my penis erect. I attribute this mostly to nervousness but was wondering if my cholestoral consumption may be an issue

FWIW, I eat around 50-60% of calories from complex carbs, around 30% from fat and the rest from protein. Leanest I've ever been, more energy and my blood cholesterol is under 150. Eating more fat and protein makes me feel very sluggish and tired and I gain weight even eating less calories. Moral of the story is everyone's different.

"To keep hormone levels healthy, ensure you get at least 30% of your daily calories from an unsaturated fat plant source." Do you have a citation for this?

Can you do a post for premature ejaculation? For research purposes.
