Health
The penis is actually a sensi- tive tissue composed of blood vessels – veins and arteries, as well as nerves. When a man is having an erection, blood rushes to the blood vessels, making it hard and erect. The corposa cav- ernosa, the main chamber within the penis where the ma- jority of blood circulates, is the main component in penile erec- tion.
For a man to maintain a healthy erection, he must make sure that blood circulating to the area is free from blocking sub- stances such as cholesterol and fat.
Your diet plays a major role in all of this, so you may need to
detox “down there” in order to clean out bad things you’ve been taking in, increase your blood and boost your stamina. Here are three natural ways to do it:
1. Blackberries
Blackberries are rich in an- tioxidants and fiber. Anti-oxi- dants help the body get rid of free radicals while fiber flushes
toxins out of the body. Here’s a quick mix:
1⁄4 k blackberries
2 tbsp grade b maple syrup 1 L distilled water
2. Beetroot Juice
Beetroot juice is high in NO3, a nitrate. Nitrates are va- sodilators, that is, they open (di- late) the vascular system (blood
vessels and capillaries). When your blood vessels open wider, you have increased blood flow throughout the body.
Increased and improved blood flow throughout the body confers many health and per- formance related benefits.
Here’s the quick mix to blend and drink:
1/2 of a medium-sized beet 1 apple, orange, or pear
3 carrots
3. Probiotics
Probiotics found in natural greek yogurt or just plain natu- ral probiotic pills will do. An- other option is Young Coconut Kefir. Drink this delicious probi- otic-rich fermented drink and you’ll cut sugar cravings, boost your energy and immunity and create younger looking skin to
boot! It is an excellent source of potassium and a very good source of natural sodium.
Here’s a few honorable men- tions that will also help “down there”:
Chamomile – A traditional remedy for stress and anxiety, chamomile acts as a diuretic and nerve tonic.
Juniper Berry – Acts as a diuretic, anti-inflamatory, and decongestant. Very useful in helping to regulate blood sugar levels.
Ligustrum Berry – Ligus- trum Berry nourishes and tones the liver and kidneys and in- creases blood circulation.
Licorice Root –
Licorice root fights inflam- mation and viral, bacterial and parasitic infection. Cleanses the colon, and enhances microcircu- lation in the gastrointestinal lin- ing.
Milk Thistle Seed – Also called Mary Thistle, Milk Thistle protects the liver from toxins and pollutants by preventing free radical damage and stimu- lating the production of new liver cells.
Turmeric Tuber - Used throughout Southeast Asia and India for thousands of years, Turmeric has been shown to aid circulation, lower cholesterol, and improve blood vessel health. Healers have used Tumeric for years for the treatment of obe- sity, as it is said to cut the fat from the blood.
