If you are struggling with ED and just trying to manage it on your own, you need to stop right now. Did you know that 46% of men with ED suffer a heart attack within just five years? You wouldn't ignore chest pain and you shouldn't ignore your erections failing because it's the exact same warning sign. Today, I'm breaking down why popping a pill is masking a major cardiovascular red flag. The exact blood test you need to demand from your doctor and how the right daily routine can actually outperform Viagra and Ciales. Let's dive in. This podcast is for you, the modern man. I'm Dr. Ian Tron, your host. I'm an intimate health medical doctor and best-selling author of the book, A Rectiles His Function 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 sexualhealthformandpodcast.com for more information and resources from the show.
See you on the inside. I have ED. What do I need to do? The answer to it is pretty simple. You'll be surprised because when you have ED, treat it like as if you have chest pain. When you have chest pain, you go to the doctor, you go to ER and you get an address, right? Well, ED is your body warning you that you have blood vessel problem or blood flow problem that precede heart problem. So that is a show that men that has ED, 46% of them actually have some type of heart attack in five years. So is your warning sign? It is your flashing sign that your body is having a blood flow issue and that's what the word for that is called cardiovascular disease.
So I want you to treat your ED as if you're having chest pain. You don't want to try to treat it yourself because ED is quite complex and it involved from the brain all the way down to the nerve, the hormone, the heart, the blood vessels and dead and the penis. So it involved multiple system, multiple steps that are going on. I understand that ED is a personal thing. It is somewhat embarrassing to talk about and let it have shown that only one third of men actually talk about it with their doctor. I get it. It's something personal you want anybody to know, but I want to stress to you guys that you want to treat ED as if it's chest pain. Okay. So what's the first thing you should do? You should go to your doctor and if you don't want to go to your doctor, you just get blood work. The first thing you need to do is to get blood work. Now, let's get into definition of ED. What is ED? ED is defined as the inability to maintain an erection to satisfaction.
So with that broad term, it involved desire, arousal, orgasm all the way to finishing. So the whole breath. It's not just whether you get an erection or not. It involved from the brain all the way to the penis. Okay. And persistent meaning if they've been there for at least three to six months, so much that bothers you. So that's what ED is. And you can still have ED when you can get an erection. What if everything you've been told about fixing performance issues, it's backward. No pills, no surgery, just a medically proven path to getting your confidence and edge back for good. Discover what thousands of men are doing inside the private brotherhood of the modern man club. Go to noedemand.com. I'll see you there. The reason why you have ED is either if there's blood flow problem, usually due to high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes. Is it a nerve problem? Is it a hormone problem?
So is it a hormone, nerve blood vessel problem? And then is it a structural problem with the penis? And those are the things that I think about when every time I see a man with ED, what's causing your ED? 90% of ED is due to physical causes and about 10% is due to psychological causes, which is usually due to stress, depression, anxiety, trauma. That involve in processing a rousal signal up here to transmit through the nerve and the heart. So an erection actually starts in the brain, not in your penis, it starts in the brain. And if the brain is distracted, then signals are not going to go down to the heart and then eventually to the penis. So the bottom line is you have ED get blood work, you don't want to go see the doctor, you can actually get your blood work by going to the lab and requesting it. And I actually will create a checklist that will be available so you can check it out.
The next video that we're actually producing and you can go to the URL, what to do, ED.com to download that checklist. So what to do, ED.com to download the checklist. And if you don't have insurance, there is a self pay option for it. So you can take control of your sex life. You don't have to be passive about it and try not to take medication without knowing why you have ED. Just note that even though 90% of ED is physical and 10% of psychological, but after a physical component is there for a while, then there's going to be a psychological component mixed into it as well. So just quick note before we go any further, if you're high income man, usually the age between 45 to 85 and you're ready to invest to fix your ED without relying on pills or surgery, I have the get heart protocol in office program where we treat you in Virginia, we combine themselves, shop way, bolt off, formal and left out to help restore natural erection.
So for everyone, you must be able to travel to Virginia and be comfortable investing around $16,000 for your health. If that's you, pause this video for a moment, click the link down below in the description that says get ED breakthrough with Dr. Ed and complete the application. You're not in that position yet, no problem. Keep enjoying this video and check out our modern man club at no edman.com, even when you're not firm enough, that's still ED, even when you can orgasm, but you're not firm, you could still have ED. So ED does not mean inability to get an erection, ED can be a partial erection or finishing early or inability to orgasm, okay, treat it like chest pain. Don't try to go to internet and try to buy this supplement, this gadget and so forth because you don't know what is the root cause of that. Treat ED like chest pain, treat ED like a problem in your car. If your car is not starting or is it making noise, you know, you take it to the mechanic and you get a diagnosed, right, you wouldn't be driving it on the road until it breaks down on the road.
So you need to know the cause of your ED first, I commonly get the question, what do I do for treatment for ED? Well, first of all, you have ED, get it addressed, don't try to treat it yourself first by getting blood work. You can go to the doctor and get blood work and you can actually get blood work on your own, you can actually go to lab core and request for blood work, go to lab core, you go to class, you have insurance, if not, even those lab have self insured charge as well, cash charge for those that doesn't have insurance. So what lab should you get to you to get a blood sugar pass and you should get what call a CBC complete blood cell count, you request for chemistry 14, which involve blood sugar, involve your kidney function as well as your liver function and you should also ask for cholesterol, fast and lipid panel. When you get the blood, we're sure you fast for 12 hours, you want to check your cholesterol or then your hormones, you want to check for your testosterone, you want to check for total testosterone and also free testosterone, get your blood work check that number one and make sure it's fasting and number two, be honest with yourself, what is your weight, if you're overweight for a man, you wasted about 30 or you can do a BMI, which is body mass index, if your BMI is old, you can do it.
So you're over 30, you're overweight, you can find that equation on the internet for BMI. So if you're overweight, you need to get on the Mediterranean diet and start exercising 30 minutes, at least every other day or three to four times a week. Also, stop smoking, you are smoking and that's including inhaling cigarette tobacco, chewing tobacco as well as probably vaping because they do have nicotine and you probably should stop porn as well because porn messed up with your brain desire and arousal processing. They start doing that, the recent studies have come out that Chai Chi is actually good for cognition and I wonder if that good for also vascular as well too exercise and get enough sleep like seven hours of sleep and you start with that and you'll be amazed at the change. A studies have come out that show that diet and exercise together beat Viagra and Cialas and it is even effective in those that Viagra Cialas does not help but it beats it as well too because the medication of Agra Cialas only help in about 70% of men, 30% do not respond to it, but exercise and doing a mentoring diet is helpful for everyone.
You start doing that, these are important so you can get the copy of the Mediterranean diet and eat for no ed.com, you get the Mediterranean diet, I give you everything that is included in there and you can download that for free. So the main point is there are things that you can do for ed now. One thing you want to do is to take a medication and know when you go to the doctor, the first thing they're going to do is give you a medication. Well, you shouldn't do that. It's like when you have pain, you don't want to take a pain medication right because it's just covering up the symptom. It's the band-aid that's going to get you in trouble later on because you take medication, your body is going to think that it needs to have medication every time you have an oraxian and you want to have an natural oraxian. You don't want to have an oraxian or what medication on there, 30% of men do not respond to the medication anyway. And so men just don't know that it is reversible by just making lifestyle changes at the diet and exercise and stopping something.
You don't know that, right? And you're not going to find out internet. That's why I created this channel, Tronway Viltation Center. That's why I created the Modern Man Club is a space where you and community of other men as going to the same thing that is coached by us and expert that will give you the guidance on how to get back your direction again without medication and guiding you to the right path. So you can check it out at noedman.com. It's a group coaching that is designed to give you the step-by-step to get you out of ED to performing again. And oftentimes it's lonely, right? It's not something you're going to talk with your best friend about, right? Okay, Modern Man, if you're struggling with weak erection, low energy, the food you eat could be the big part of the problem. One of the best research back way to boost circulation, support healthy testosterone, and improved sexual performance is the Mediterranean diet.
This path would food that opened up your blood vessel, lower inflammation, and feel your home bone naturally. I've seen men notice real improvement in both energy and erection within weeks when they shift to this style of eating. So check out this Mediterranean diet link right here below and get that as soon as you can, stronger testosterone and better erection. I have to be honest with you, and you put in the work, the supplement will work, the penis pump will work, everything will work. So check it out. Go to ModernManClub at noedman.com. You will get the roadmap on how to get out of ED naturally. And this is no given. We've seen thousands of men get results from this, and I've seen it work myself. Now, we do have treatment in the office for more severe cases that will need more boosting with stem cells, like your own stem cells to boost more blood flow to really restructuring the penis again because it's been years without having an erection.
So for more involved cases or severe cases, we would use your own stem cells and would also use Botox to help relax the penis muscle and your own stem cell to build more blood flow in the penis. The Botox to inject into the penis to relax the muscles to that way it can have an erection again and then shockwave therapy. What it does is that it takes all the blockages out of the penis to open up more new vessels. And then we also do electromagnetic therapy, which is to clear up all the toxic stuff out and around the penis. We also do far infrared treatment, which increased parasympathetic nervous system, which is the nerve that will give you an erection. And we actually reset the nerves in that way, the parasympathetic nervous system is activating for erection again. We also give you a tigel machine that you can put the electrode and the pelvic muscle area to stimulate it because those muscles, those pelvic muscles that are actually right underneath the scrotum right here, the small muscle and triangle shape.
And if you stimulate it with the tigel machine, what it does is that these muscles goes around up here and it goes around the base of the penis and it help keep the blood in the penis to give you a firm erection. If those pelvic muscles are weak, then it doesn't work like kind of like a rubber band at the base of the penis and then blood will kind of come out. So it's very important those pelvic muscle that's more mighty. So we choose small muscles, the small mighty, they help with erection, those are the muscle that actually contract during orgasm when it contract. It also help propel the semen out of the prostate out in through the urethra. So the pelvic muscles are here. This is the prostate here to when it contract, it will propel the semen from the prostate out to the penis and the prostate is underneath the bladder and the tube that goes out from the bladder urethra go through the prostate and then throughout the penis, that's where you urinate, that's where also semen comes out as well.
So these little muscles are mighty and they are neglected. So that's why the get heart system, which is my framework that I use to treat ED in the office involves giving you the TIGO machine to stimulate these muscles here and also you will get the supplements like naturopathsile libido plus multivitamin vitamin D. But you've shown that men with ED have low vitamin D, right, because vitamin D comes from a vegetable. So you're not following the medicine and you're probably going to have low vitamin D and we also of course give you the penis pump so you can exercise your penis every day as well. As well. So those are the sustenites that you need the tools that you need to get you out of ED. There is a clear pathway. You've got to do the work. You do the work. You will see the result.
