1
00:00:00,420 --> 00:00:05,790
Low libido isn't just about aging.
Everything from high blood pressure to

2
00:00:05,940 --> 00:00:12,570
smoking and poor sleep is destroying your
sex drive. While treatments like shockwave

3
00:00:12,690 --> 00:00:18,810
therapy and stem cells can force blood
flow back and restore function, they are

4
00:00:18,930 --> 00:00:24,710
not magic pills. If you want permanent
results, you have to fix the root cause.

5
00:00:25,340 --> 00:00:31,910
Here is how a Mediterranean diet, targeted
exercise, and advanced therapies work

6
00:00:32,030 --> 00:00:34,250
together to fix your libido.

7
00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:40,970
This podcast is for you, the Modern Man.
I'm Dr Anne Truong, your host. I'm an

8
00:00:40,970 --> 00:00:45,110
intimate health medical doctor and best
selling author of the book, Erectile

9
00:00:45,110 --> 00:00:49,850
Dysfunction Fix. I'll do a deep dive into
sexual health and performance and how it

10
00:00:49,850 --> 00:00:54,620
affects men of all ages and backgrounds.
So let's get started, and be sure to visit

11
00:00:54,620 --> 00:00:58,400
my website at
sexualhealthformenpodcast.com for more

12
00:00:58,400 --> 00:01:02,045
information and resources from the show.
See you on the inside.

13
00:01:11,990 --> 00:01:16,670
So, what are some of the causes of low
libido? Low libido means low sex drive,

14
00:01:16,670 --> 00:01:21,170
right? Could be a lot. If you're
distracted, if you're anxious, you're

15
00:01:21,170 --> 00:01:24,470
depressed, you're gonna have low libido.
You work a lot, you're tired. You're gonna

16
00:01:24,470 --> 00:01:31,685
have low libido. So it's related to your
lifestyle, your stress level, your sleep

17
00:01:31,685 --> 00:01:37,325
level. Because when you're sleep deprived
and when you're not good mentally up here,

18
00:01:37,325 --> 00:01:41,825
you're not gonna be in the mood for
intercourse, right? So that makes sense.

19
00:01:41,825 --> 00:01:46,895
But one of the things that condition that
can contribute to low libido is low

20
00:01:46,895 --> 00:01:53,840
testosterone. Testosterone contribute to
man libido as well as correction. But it

21
00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:59,090
has other benefits such as building bone
mass, building muscle mass, burning more

22
00:01:59,090 --> 00:02:06,110
fat. And so when you have low libido, the
first thing is don't blame it on

23
00:02:06,110 --> 00:02:10,520
testosterone. It could be multifactorial
thing as well too. Like as if you're not

24
00:02:10,670 --> 00:02:15,305
exercising, that you will not have energy.
When you don't have energy, you don't have

25
00:02:15,305 --> 00:02:15,995
libido.

26
00:02:16,145 --> 00:02:21,095
I'm telling you, I have a phrase: fix your
sex life by fixing your health. Fix your

27
00:02:21,095 --> 00:02:26,285
sex life by fixing your health. Focusing
on fixing your health first, your sex life

28
00:02:26,285 --> 00:02:31,655
will follow. Okay, so I help you improve
your sex life by improving your health,

29
00:02:31,955 --> 00:02:36,350
because when you have good health, your
sex life is just secondary benefit. So

30
00:02:36,350 --> 00:02:40,490
don't try to just try to fix the sex life
without fixing the health. You gotta fix

31
00:02:40,490 --> 00:02:43,910
the health first, then your sex life will
follow. Does that make sense?

32
00:02:43,660 --> 00:02:48,640
So how do you fix your health? Let's say
you have diabetes. How do you fix your

33
00:02:48,640 --> 00:02:52,060
health? Well, you fix your health by
following a Mediterranean diet. When you

34
00:02:52,060 --> 00:02:56,230
follow Mediterranean diet, your blood
sugar will decrease, and then you will

35
00:02:56,230 --> 00:03:00,940
lose weight. Fix your health, and you will
fix your sex life. So you have diabetes

36
00:03:00,940 --> 00:03:04,420
and high blood pressure. You follow
Mediterranean diet, your blood sugar will

37
00:03:04,420 --> 00:03:09,415
come down. You exercise, your blood
pressure will come down. About 30 minutes,

38
00:03:09,415 --> 00:03:12,205
three to four times a week. Your blood
pressure will come down. You don't need a

39
00:03:12,205 --> 00:03:16,675
blood pressure pill. Exercise could be
lowest and moderate exercise at met

40
00:03:16,675 --> 00:03:22,585
between three to seven. That means that if
you're exercising and it's hard for you to

41
00:03:22,585 --> 00:03:27,895
count to 10, whether it's walking or
stairs or running, you want to get to a

42
00:03:27,895 --> 00:03:31,900
range of about moderate exercise. And
then, how do you fix your health? You fix

43
00:03:31,900 --> 00:03:34,930
your health by let's say you have high
cholesterol because of what you eat.

44
00:03:34,930 --> 00:03:39,820
Again, follow the Mediterranean diet that
will bring down your cholesterol level.

45
00:03:39,820 --> 00:03:44,950
Because cholesterol, high blood pressure,
and diabetes are the three top

46
00:03:44,950 --> 00:03:49,270
contributors of ED. It causes
inflammation. It causes decreased blood

47
00:03:49,270 --> 00:03:53,995
flow. The other contributor is porn. Porn
messes up with your brain, so it's hard

48
00:03:53,995 --> 00:03:58,975
for you to get aroused when you're with a
real person. The other thing is smoking.

49
00:03:58,975 --> 00:04:03,745
Stop smoking. The moment you start
smoking, you're gonna kill your erection.

50
00:04:03,745 --> 00:04:06,595
So those are mainly the lifestyle factors.

51
00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:11,460
I try to make things simple for you. I try
to make things straightforward. It's not

52
00:04:11,460 --> 00:04:15,570
that complicated. You know, you gotta fix
your health, fix your sex life. Fix your

53
00:04:15,570 --> 00:04:18,540
sex life, you're gonna fix your health.
How do you fix your health? I just give

54
00:04:18,900 --> 00:04:22,650
the most common thing that throw off your
health is overweight, high blood pressure,

55
00:04:22,650 --> 00:04:29,340
diabetes, high cholesterol. Because if you
just do what I just said and following the

56
00:04:29,340 --> 00:04:34,485
Mediterranean diet and exercise, then you
will improve your health. Lose some

57
00:04:34,485 --> 00:04:39,825
weight, and when you do that, you're gonna
be able to fix your sex life as well too.

58
00:04:40,035 --> 00:04:43,005
So it all correlate with it.

59
00:04:43,065 --> 00:04:48,225
Okay, Modern Man. If you're struggling
with weak erection, low energy, the food

60
00:04:48,225 --> 00:04:52,920
you eat could be the big part of the
problem. One of the best research pathways

61
00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:57,840
to boost circulation, support healthy
testosterone and improve sexual

62
00:04:57,840 --> 00:05:02,640
performance is the Mediterranean diet.
It's packed with food that open up your

63
00:05:02,640 --> 00:05:08,910
blood vessel, lower inflammation, and fuel
your hormone, naturally. I've seen men

64
00:05:08,910 --> 00:05:14,550
notice real improvement in both energy and
erection within weeks when they shift to

65
00:05:14,550 --> 00:05:20,535
this style of eating. So check out the
Mediterranean diet link right here below,

66
00:05:20,535 --> 00:05:26,745
and get that as soon as you can. Stronger
testosterone and better erection.

67
00:05:26,750 --> 00:05:31,490
Stress is the number one. It's one of the
top erection killers because in our

68
00:05:31,490 --> 00:05:36,680
everyday lives we have to recognize that.
But then stress lowers testosterone

69
00:05:36,680 --> 00:05:42,050
levels. Stress increases inflammation.
Stress decreases blood flow. And knowing

70
00:05:42,050 --> 00:05:47,810
that you have high stress, then it's best
to learn how to manage that. How do you

71
00:05:47,810 --> 00:05:52,145
manage your stress? Sometimes the
counselor will help. They will provide

72
00:05:52,145 --> 00:05:56,195
some feedback for you. But sometimes
they're doing the stuff that you like to

73
00:05:56,195 --> 00:06:01,385
do, like you like basketball, you like
baseball. Do more of that. Calm your mind

74
00:06:01,385 --> 00:06:06,335
and decrease that stress. Do whatever
things that you like doing. All right. So

75
00:06:06,335 --> 00:06:12,320
that is the fourth pillar is the stress.
And my point is, it does take work from

76
00:06:12,320 --> 00:06:16,910
you to restore your sex life. Again, you
got to be committed to it. For women, we

77
00:06:16,910 --> 00:06:21,020
have an outlet. We talk to other women.
That's like our outlet. For men, you may

78
00:06:21,020 --> 00:06:25,520
not be a big talker, so I would encourage
you to do the things you like, hang around

79
00:06:25,520 --> 00:06:31,640
the people that make you relax, and also
cut down on the drinking as well too.

80
00:06:31,640 --> 00:06:36,755
You're allowed one to two drink a day, but
anything more than 14 a week is too much.

81
00:06:36,755 --> 00:06:41,075
So you may want to kind of keep the
drinking more to social and not an

82
00:06:41,075 --> 00:06:46,235
everyday wind down type like thing. You
stay here, Fredericksburg. We'll be able

83
00:06:46,235 --> 00:06:51,695
to work together to push because the
treatment in my office with the stem cell,

84
00:06:51,725 --> 00:06:56,885
the Botox, the shock wave therapy, the
pulse electromagnetic therapy, the Kegel,

85
00:06:57,275 --> 00:07:03,650
just give you a boost in healing, in
getting things started with increasing

86
00:07:03,650 --> 00:07:08,990
blood flow. So it cut your time in half
and getting result and help you get result

87
00:07:08,990 --> 00:07:15,410
quicker, and it boosts your whole system
up for getting more blood flow down there.

88
00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:30,428
The bottom line: even when you get the
treatment, you still need to continue

89
00:07:30,631 --> 00:07:46,668
following the Mediterranean diet and also
exercise and follow up with sleep for

90
00:07:46,871 --> 00:08:03,923
seven hours and of course doing the penis
pump. Those are the one that come into our

91
00:08:01,530 --> 00:08:07,014
Now, if you have sleep problems, stress,
and anxiety, depression, that's in the

92
00:08:04,126 --> 00:08:20,772
office. Usually, just do penis pump and
taking the multivitamin, the nitric oxide,

93
00:08:07,083 --> 00:08:12,915
brain. So the five signals that you get to
get you aroused, like the eyes, the nose,

94
00:08:12,985 --> 00:08:18,191
the mouth, what you hear, and the hand,
those five signals send stimulatory

95
00:08:18,261 --> 00:08:23,676
messenger to the brain, would then get
filtered through depression and anxiety

96
00:08:20,975 --> 00:08:35,591
the libido plus and vitamin D3
multivitamin and nitric oxide. The nitric

97
00:08:23,745 --> 00:08:29,647
and stress, get filtered through, and when
it get filtered through, the noise will be

98
00:08:29,716 --> 00:08:35,548
lower, and then it will reach then to the
hormone. The hormone get released, but the

99
00:08:35,617 --> 00:08:41,032
noise will be less because it's being
filter through your anxiety, stress, and

100
00:08:35,794 --> 00:08:52,237
oxide is at our store, ED No More, and
it's a white bottle, and it has arugula in

101
00:08:41,102 --> 00:08:46,725
insomnia. So, having said that, one of the
treatment we're doing in the office is

102
00:08:46,795 --> 00:08:52,210
called the far infrared with terahertz
treatment, where we use a wand that has

103
00:08:52,279 --> 00:08:57,972
quartz attached to it, and we go over the
actually the kidney acupuncture point as

104
00:08:52,440 --> 00:09:08,477
it, which has the highest content of
nitric oxide. The main thing I want to say

105
00:08:58,041 --> 00:09:03,595
well as the sympathetic parasympathetic
points in the body. So we hit the spine,

106
00:09:03,665 --> 00:09:09,427
then we hit the kidney meridian, then we
hit the vagus nerve, where we want to calm

107
00:09:08,680 --> 00:09:24,311
is that you gotta kind of follow up with
changing your diet and your exercise

108
00:09:09,496 --> 00:09:15,120
down the sympathetic nerve and increase
the parasympathetic nerve messages. Those

109
00:09:15,189 --> 00:09:20,813
are the main things right now. And then
controlling the diabetes as usual. If you
