It's very easy to overdo stories about the risks of obesity. Indeed, those who are overweight grow increasingly angry at the growing number of scientific studies telling them how to live their lives. In this, there are parallels with the campaigns to encourage people to quit smoking. For years, the tobacco industry suppressed evidence of the link between nicotine and cancer, and disputed articles that tried to warn people of the risks. Today, even with the Surgeon General's warning on the packaging, current smokers resist laws that aim to limit smoking in public places. They see this as intrusive. Nevertheless, as with nicotine, so with obesity, there is increasingly clear evidence of the link between excess body weight and disease. For the purposes of this article, the link between erectile dysfunction (ED) and obesity is also clearly made.
The evidence collected from around the US shows that about 35% of all men over the age of 50 are likely to experience ED at some point in their lives. Both obesity and the resulting lack of physical exercise significantly increase the risk. There are three reasons for this. The first is the change in the level of testosterone as the body gains weight. The second stems from the deposit of plaque on the lining of the arteries. The initial condition is called atherosclerosis - a hardening of the arteries and a restriction in the flow of blood. In turn this increases the blood pressure and can lead to heart disease. Finally, the overweight are more likely to become diabetic. As diabetes progresses, there can be nerve damage which first appears as ED.
To be straightforward, the remedy is easy. If you lose weight and increase the amount of physical exercise you do, this is likely to improve your general health and, even more importantly, relieve the ED. So here is another article telling you to modify your lifestyle. Except that, for many men, the ability to get or maintain an erection is a vital part of their self-esteem. If something is interfering with this, some action is called for. In its early stages, the standard ED medications will usually produce results. But, if left untreated by diet and an exercise routine, only levitra will maintain sexual satisfaction. This drug is the most powerful of the three ED medications and it will usually produce sufficient hardness to achieve penetration and ejaculation. But there will come a time when even levitra will not help. When you reach this stage, the choice has become stark. You need to diet, take drugs to reduce your blood pressure and cholesterol levels, and exercise. As your weight begins to fall, levitra will restore erections. If you maintain the weight loss, you can probably return to the weight and level of health where an erection will come without the need for a drug. So, if you are overweight and suffering from ED, buy levitra to restore sexual activity and start losing weight.
