See you on the inside. 9 00:00:37,440 --> 00:00:40,620 Hello there, Modern Man. Do you know that you have four 10 00:00:40,620 --> 00:00:44,580 different type of erection? Not just one, four, and Mother 11 00:00:44,580 --> 00:00:48,600 Nature programmed you to have it that way. All right? I'm Dr Anne 12 00:00:48,600 --> 00:00:52,785 Truong. I've treated over 7000 men with ED over 20 year span. 13 00:00:52,960 --> 00:00:56,020 Let me say it again. You heard it right. You have four 14 00:00:56,020 --> 00:00:59,620 different type of erection that you can have. And they're all 15 00:00:59,620 --> 00:01:03,340 erection, but they are kind of created a little differently. 16 00:01:03,580 --> 00:01:07,360 But your body is programmed to have erection. Kind of like the 17 00:01:07,360 --> 00:01:12,400 same way that why you need to have sex, because that's the way 18 00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:15,880 your body is programmed. Let me start with the first erection, 19 00:01:16,120 --> 00:01:20,485 that is the morning erection, and you've had that probably 20 00:01:20,485 --> 00:01:23,065 since you're an adolescent, right when you start making 21 00:01:23,065 --> 00:01:27,865 testosterone and puberty. And morning erection usually happen 22 00:01:27,865 --> 00:01:31,945 at night time actually, and you can have between three to six 23 00:01:32,005 --> 00:01:35,605 erection at night, with the most prominent one in the morning 24 00:01:35,605 --> 00:01:40,630 when you wake up. However, it only happens when you're in a 25 00:01:40,630 --> 00:01:45,070 dream like state called Rapid Eye Movement, and that is 26 00:01:45,070 --> 00:01:48,670 spontaneous. So it happens when you're asleep, because that's 27 00:01:48,670 --> 00:01:52,150 when you're in deep sleep, you're dreaming, and you're in a 28 00:01:52,150 --> 00:01:55,330 parasympathetic state. And when you're in a parasympathetic 29 00:01:55,330 --> 00:02:00,070 state, the nerve is stimulated, you're releasing nitric oxide, 30 00:02:00,190 --> 00:02:03,835 you're increasing blood flow, therefore erection. So that 31 00:02:03,895 --> 00:02:07,975 erection number one, is morning erection, or even nighttime 32 00:02:07,975 --> 00:02:12,715 erection. You get about three to six of that and a night. How 33 00:02:12,715 --> 00:02:13,855 good is that? Right? 34 00:02:14,035 --> 00:02:19,915 Number two is called spontaneous reflex erection. Now this 35 00:02:19,975 --> 00:02:24,775 erection involves touching. Any type of touching of any of the 36 00:02:24,820 --> 00:02:29,200 erogenous zone, or touching on the penis itself. You know that 37 00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:33,640 you have more than 30 erogenous zones in your body, and with 12 38 00:02:33,640 --> 00:02:38,740 of it just in around the penile area. So touching, so it's a 39 00:02:38,740 --> 00:02:41,920 reflex. So if you touch and then it sends, then your sense 40 00:02:41,920 --> 00:02:46,600 sensation, to the nerve in the spinal cord. It goes in the loop 41 00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:50,545 like this. Sometimes it can even occur with just a slightest 42 00:02:50,665 --> 00:02:55,705 touch, or even just wind blowing near your penis. That's called 43 00:02:55,705 --> 00:03:01,585 reflex. So it goes to the spinal cord, the nerve at s2 and s4 and 44 00:03:01,585 --> 00:03:05,185 that causes that reflex erection. Sometimes, kind of 45 00:03:05,185 --> 00:03:07,885 happen in an embarrassing moment, right? Or sometimes it 46 00:03:07,885 --> 00:03:10,405 kind of happened you brushing against somebody, and whoop, 47 00:03:10,765 --> 00:03:13,690 there goes your erection. Sometimes you can't even control 48 00:03:13,690 --> 00:03:17,170 it. So the younger you are, you may notice that you can't 49 00:03:17,410 --> 00:03:19,390 control it as much. 50 00:03:19,450 --> 00:03:23,650 Men, struggling to stay hard? Most of the time it comes down 51 00:03:23,650 --> 00:03:27,850 to poor blood flow. That's why I put together the Good Morning 52 00:03:27,850 --> 00:03:33,715 Wood smoothie, a nutrient packed blend designed to restore blood 53 00:03:33,715 --> 00:03:38,155 flow naturally. My patient often notice improvement in just a few 54 00:03:38,155 --> 00:03:42,175 weeks when they take this part of their daily routine. Click 55 00:03:42,175 --> 00:03:46,075 the link below to get the recipe and start boosting your blood 56 00:03:46,075 --> 00:03:52,495 flow and firmness today, or go to goodmorningwoodsmoothie.com. 57 00:03:52,660 --> 00:03:57,280 Number three is psychogenic erection. Where you get an 58 00:03:57,280 --> 00:04:00,880 erection by just thinking about it. You get an erection when 59 00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:06,160 you, let's say, close your eyes and you think about it, or even 60 00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:09,460 when you're reading erotic books. It comes from your brain. 61 00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:12,640 Then your brain releases hormones and release neuro 62 00:04:12,640 --> 00:04:16,000 chemical, which then sends messages to the nerve the base 63 00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:19,165 of your neck, which send messages to the parasympathetic 64 00:04:19,165 --> 00:04:23,665 nerve, which then open up blood vessels, releases nitric oxide, 65 00:04:23,725 --> 00:04:27,145 which then increases blood flow, and therefore you get an 66 00:04:27,145 --> 00:04:31,405 erection. Now, that is something that sometimes you do without 67 00:04:31,405 --> 00:04:34,645 even thinking about it. That's when you're kind of dreaming, or 68 00:04:34,645 --> 00:04:37,885 when you close your eyes. Sometimes that will happen. And 69 00:04:37,885 --> 00:04:43,150 just know that there is a large psychogenic component to getting 70 00:04:43,150 --> 00:04:43,990 that erection. 71 00:04:44,020 --> 00:04:47,680 So then the fourth one is the most common one where you get an 72 00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:51,700 erection during sexual arousal, which is a combination of both 73 00:04:51,700 --> 00:04:57,220 psychogenic and also the reflex erection. That means that if the 74 00:04:57,220 --> 00:05:00,820 combination of both pathway of the brain. Would then send 75 00:05:00,820 --> 00:05:05,920 messages down to the penis and then also the reflex pathway, 76 00:05:05,980 --> 00:05:10,825 where it involves touching. Now imagine two pathway merging to 77 00:05:10,825 --> 00:05:14,545 give you a full on erection, and that's what you get during 78 00:05:14,545 --> 00:05:18,985 sexual arousal. So sexual arousal involves touching and 79 00:05:18,985 --> 00:05:23,965 using the five senses and the taste, the smell, the visual 80 00:05:23,965 --> 00:05:29,650 stimuli, the audio stimuli, and touch to combine with the 81 00:05:29,650 --> 00:05:34,390 psychological component of being aroused, being in the mood, 82 00:05:34,390 --> 00:05:37,930 being present with yourself and with your partner, being 83 00:05:37,990 --> 00:05:42,370 intentional and not overthinking it. So that's why, sometime 84 00:05:42,490 --> 00:05:46,510 during sexual activity, if you're worried about performance 85 00:05:46,570 --> 00:05:50,110 and you had anxiety or depression of being distracted, 86 00:05:50,230 --> 00:05:53,650 you may not get an erection because you're distracting the 87 00:05:53,695 --> 00:05:56,755 pathway that is generating that erection. 88 00:05:56,815 --> 00:06:00,355 Okay, Modern Man. If you're struggling with weak erection, 89 00:06:00,355 --> 00:06:03,955 low energy, the food you eat could be the big part of the 90 00:06:03,955 --> 00:06:07,255 problem. One of the best research pathways to boost 91 00:06:07,255 --> 00:06:11,755 circulation, support healthy testosterone and improve sexual 92 00:06:11,755 --> 00:06:15,715 performance is the Mediterranean diet. It's packed with food that 93 00:06:15,775 --> 00:06:20,320 open up your blood vessel, lower inflammation, and fuel your 94 00:06:20,320 --> 00:06:24,520 hormone, naturally. I've seen men notice real improvement in 95 00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:28,540 both energy and erection within weeks when they shift to this 96 00:06:28,540 --> 00:06:32,620 style of eating. So check out the Mediterranean diet link 97 00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:38,080 right here below, and get that as soon as you can. Stronger 98 00:06:38,125 --> 00:06:40,525 testosterone and better erection. 99 00:06:40,660 --> 00:06:46,780 So overall, there are four different type of erection that 100 00:06:46,840 --> 00:06:50,500 you can have. How interesting is that? So let's summarize. The 101 00:06:50,500 --> 00:06:54,040 first is morning erection, or nighttime erection, which 102 00:06:54,040 --> 00:06:57,640 happens when you're asleep. It's the mother nature's way of 103 00:06:57,640 --> 00:07:01,660 exercising your penis for you and that you should be able to 104 00:07:01,660 --> 00:07:04,645 have it, which is a good sign that you're having it, and you 105 00:07:04,645 --> 00:07:08,365 should continue to have it. And one way to optimize it is to 106 00:07:08,365 --> 00:07:12,565 have good night sleep, and if you relax before you go to bed. 107 00:07:12,865 --> 00:07:17,125 The second type of erection is called the reflex, which is 108 00:07:17,425 --> 00:07:21,625 through touching, or through pressure or touching their 109 00:07:21,625 --> 00:07:25,525 erogenous zone which then sends messages to the nerve and the 110 00:07:25,525 --> 00:07:29,830 spinal cord which send the message to create an erection. 111 00:07:29,830 --> 00:07:34,330 That's the reflex. Number three is psychogenic, or mental which 112 00:07:34,390 --> 00:07:37,990 you can send messages from the brain which then send signal 113 00:07:37,990 --> 00:07:40,930 down to the penis for an erection. And the fourth is the 114 00:07:40,930 --> 00:07:44,410 most common one during sexual arousal is the combination of 115 00:07:44,410 --> 00:07:49,690 both psychogenic and reflex, or touching, which is the most 116 00:07:49,690 --> 00:07:55,195 powerful of all. So knowing that, guys, you just need to 117 00:07:55,195 --> 00:08:01,555 remember to be present, be aroused, be aware. Don't 118 00:08:01,555 --> 00:08:05,215 overthink it. When you overthink it, you're gonna talk yourself 119 00:08:05,335 --> 00:08:10,195 your erection. Oftentimes, just go with the flow. Go what's 120 00:08:10,195 --> 00:08:12,895 going on. Enjoy the moment. Oftentimes, you're enjoying the 121 00:08:12,955 --> 00:08:16,420 moment. You're not thinking about what the what if or what's 122 00:08:16,420 --> 00:08:21,280 gonna happen. So four different type of erection, optimize it 123 00:08:21,340 --> 00:08:25,420 relax and overall, guys, it's all about the four pillars of 124 00:08:25,420 --> 00:08:28,480 maintaining your sexual health. It is following the 125 00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:32,620 Mediterranean diet, exercise 30 minutes, three to five times a 126 00:08:32,620 --> 00:08:36,820 week if you can, get a good night's sleep, and decrease your 127 00:08:36,865 --> 00:08:40,645 stress. How do you decrease your stress through exercise, through 128 00:08:40,705 --> 00:08:45,265 stopping the screen before you go to bed, through socializing 129 00:08:45,265 --> 00:08:49,525 with your family and being present for your partner. Those 130 00:08:49,525 --> 00:08:52,825 are simple things that will go a long way. Research has shown 131 00:08:52,885 --> 00:08:57,445 that diet and exercise alone work even better than Viagra. 132 00:08:57,445 --> 00:09:00,910 Because if you're taking that medicine, Viagra in your body, 133 00:09:00,910 --> 00:09:04,930 you're going to screw up the whole entire natural processes, 134 00:09:04,930 --> 00:09:08,710 how your body produce an erection. Remember in the last 135 00:09:08,710 --> 00:09:12,790 episode I talked about mother nature's way of wanting for you 136 00:09:12,790 --> 00:09:16,570 to have an erection and taking care of you and optimizing you 137 00:09:16,690 --> 00:09:22,150 to have an erection. Don't ruin it. Okay, continue that process, 138 00:09:22,270 --> 00:09:26,095 nurture your body, take care of your body. It will take care of 139 00:09:26,095 --> 00:09:29,095 you. Take care of your body, take care of your heart, and 140 00:09:29,095 --> 00:09:33,175 that will take care of your sex life as well. I'm telling you, 141 00:09:33,235 --> 00:09:36,715 I've seen this work in thousands of men that I work with. 142 00:09:36,775 --> 00:09:40,975 Simplicity works. Simplicity matters. Don't over complicate 143 00:09:40,975 --> 00:09:45,220 things. There is no shiny object. You have to do the work. 144 00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:50,020 If you want your sex life back, you have to do the work. There's 145 00:09:50,020 --> 00:09:53,500 no easy button as a pill that's going to fix that, because 146 00:09:53,500 --> 00:09:56,440 that's a short term thing, because in the long term it is 147 00:09:56,440 --> 00:09:57,640 not going to work. 148 00:09:57,000 --> 00:10:00,720 So let me know what you think about this episode.
