This podcast is for you, the Modern Man. I'm Dr Anne Truong,

your host. I'm an intimate health medical doctor and best

selling author of the book, Erectile Dysfunction Fix. I'll

do a deep dive into sexual health and performance and how

it affects men of all ages and backgrounds. So let's get

started, and be sure to visit my website at

sexualhealthformenpodcast.com for more information and

resources from the show. See you on the inside.

Hello there, Modern Man. What if I tell you this tiny gas

molecule that your body make can dictate your ability to get and

maintain an erection? Sounds wild, right? But the science is

clear, nitric oxide is critical for your erection, and that you

if don't have enough of it, it will contribute to ED. I'm Dr

Anne Trull. I'm a sexual health specialist. I've treated over

7000 men with ED. And in today's episode, we're gonna go over

what is nitric oxide, and what does it do, and how you can

increase it.

So nitric oxide, or NO, is really a colorless, odorless gas

composed of one nitrogen and one oxygen. It's actually classified

as a free radical due to its unpair electron. However, due to

its high reactivity, it can actually be involved in very

critical function of the body. So in the human body, it serves

as a crucial signaling molecule with wide ranging roles. So

number one, it cause open blood vessels or vasodilatation. So it

causes you to have more blood flow everywhere, not just down

below. So it's essential for cardiovascular health.

Number two, it has facilitated communication between nerve and

also muscle. So therefore, it's involved in memory and learning.

It's also involved in increasing immunity as well, too. It

actually improve the immunity cells to respond to pathogen or

infection, and also it will help with inflammation. Other things

that it can do, it helps with respiratory, digestion and also

the kidney, by influencing the smooth muscle function and

increasing blood flow to these organs. So when you have low

nitric oxide, it can cause conditions such as high blood

pressure, inflammation of the blood vessel called endothelial

dysfunction, ED, and also cognitive decline or memory

loss, and impair wound healing as well.

So, and, naturally, your body make nitric oxide. But as you

get older, around 40 years old, you make less nitric oxide.

Around 40 years old, you make 50% less nitric oxide than you

would normally would be. So, you know, said, "Okay, well, I can't

do anything about my age," but you can do something to actually

increase your nitric oxide. Well, you can start with number

one, eating nitrate rich food. So this food, when you eat it,

it is nitrate, and in your mouth, and then in your stomach,

it will turn into nitric oxide. Well, these foods are leafy

greens, such as spinach, arugula, kale, swiss chard,

lettuce, bok choy, mustard greens. All my favorite. You can

also eat beets and beet root juice. Other vegetables are

celery, carrot, radishes, cabbage, broccoi, and parsley.

These foods are high in dietary nitrate, so your body can

convert it to nitric oxide. And it will also help in lowering

your blood pressure, as well too. Other food are garlic. I

love garlic. So garlic increased nitric oxide, watermelon,

cucumber, nuts and seeds such as sunflower seed, pumpkin seed and

almond, all precursors of nitric oxide. This is one of my

favorite pomegranate and citrus fruit, and dark chocolate all

contains antioxidant and these help protect the nitric oxide

production as well. Now lean meat, such as chicken and fish

like salmon and mackerel are high in omega-3 fatty acid which

will increase nitric oxide synthesis.

Okay, Modern Man, you are not alone and

The Get Wood Now Boost Program is your step by step, path to

sexual confidence and restoration. No more suffering

in silence, no more trial and error, just real solution, real

result and the confidence you deserve. It's time to take back

your power on your term. Let's get this journey started

together. Check out the course at getwoodnow.com. I'll see you

there.

Now, believe it or not, regular exercise, such as weight

training or high intensity interval training called HIIT,

can stimulate more nitric oxide. I know, exercise sometimes can

be a little hard, but it will increase your nitric oxide, and

therefore help with your erection. And the key is

consistency. In my last episode, I talked about fluoride

mouthwash and fluoride toothpaste and antacid can

decrease the nitric oxide. So you want to make sure you don't

use those. And you can always take nitric oxide supplement to

increase your nitric oxide. Check out the link right here.

Other things that you can do is deep breathing, deep breathing

that I talk about my other episode, five minutes of deep

breathing will actually enhance your nitric oxide production.

And another thing that you will love is sunlight exposure. When

you're out in the sunlight, it will actually help you release

more nitric oxide. And you know that you can measure your nitric

oxide? Well, you can measure it by using a strip. These are the

strips right here. You just put it top of your tongue like that,

and in a few minutes, it comes out. So I did that for today's

episode. And guess what? I'm a little bit deficient in nitric

oxide, because it's not bright pink. And so if you go to link

down below here, and we're gonna put the link down below so you

can actually measure your nitric oxide, you can go to our store

at ednomore.com to buy the nitric oxide strip. And then if

you go to this link down below, it tells you how to read your

nitric oxide content. And if you bright pink, you have optimal

nitric oxide. If you are low pink or white, you're depleted.

And right now depleted. So I am gonna take some nitric oxide. In

fact, I just did today. I just did like five minutes ago,

before I recorded this session. So the reason why mine is low is

that I take antacid for my gastric ulcer, so it's

decreasing that, but I will work towards like you. Eating more

nitrate-rich food, as well as measuring my nitric oxide

content. You do this, you measure about, I would say, once

a week, and you will see an improvement in your nitric oxide

content. And you can also take this, two capsule every day,

nitric oxide, which is made from arugula extract, which is the

best, low oxalate content for nitric oxide. Check it out.

We're getting more of this at our store at ednomore.com. Okay.
