Making changes to your lifestyle will not only improve your general health, it will improve your psychological health and can help prevent impotence problems. Reduced blood flow to the penis is one of many impotence causes. If you consider looking after your penis like you look after your heart, you'll be doing yourself a big favor.
* Diet
Almost 60% of Americans are now considered to be obese, largely caused by poor food and lifestyle habits. Consumers are swamped with information about the latest diet fads or magic fat busting pill but medical experts are concerned that this information doesn't seem to be having the necessary impact. Following the basic guidelines of eating a diet high in fresh fruits and vegetables, whole grains and fiber and low in saturated fats is a good way to begin to look after your general health.
* Exercise
Regular exercise is not only good for your heart, it's good for your head. Surveys have shown that men who exercise regularly are less likely to suffer from stress and anxiety, as well as a range of other ailments. Exercise is also said to improve testosterone production, which improves sexual functioning. Staying sexually active also helps maintain good blood flow to the penis, which in turn helps overcome impotence causes.
* Kegel Exercises
Kegel exercises help strengthen the pelvic floor muscles and are commonly used by pregnant women and people who suffer from urinary incontinence. These exercises have also been found to assist men whose impotence is due to impaired blood circulation.
To isolate the particular muscle required to perform Kegel exercises, the best method is to practice first while urinating. Begin by contracting the muscle necessary to slow or stop urination, then try to hold the contraction for 10 seconds and release. Continue this exercise until you know which muscle is involved. Once you've isolated the muscle, it's recommended you don't practice while urinating. You can continue contracting and releasing the muscle on a daily basis. It's recommended you perform at least 10 contractions up to 5 times daily.
