Women and men with erectile dysfunction see multiple improvements on vegan diet
30 million men in USA have erectile dysfunction. This isn’t necessarily an age related issue because 1 in 4 new cases are under age 40.
Men who ate a plant based meal before going to sleep had about 10% larger erections, and for about 300% longer period of time — Dr. Aaron Spitz, American Urological Association. [The Game Changers]. Men on vegan diets also show higher levels of testosterone [British Journal of Cancer]. Dairy milk raises blood levels of estrogen in both sexes.

The penile artery is much narrower than the coronary heart artery. A small blockage there causes a much more pronounced effect. Penile dysfunction is often caused by blocked arteries, which an oil-free vegan diet has shown to cure.

Women on a vegan diet experienced less pain and shorter duration of their monthly menstrual period. [Obstet Gynecol]
