Yes I would like to know more about. supplements particularly grape seed extract. Raw garlic or aged garlic. Vitamin D3. The right form of magnesium. The right form of zinc. When does vitamin c does it actually help.thanks🎉
@RenaMalikMD Let’s talk supplements. My current stack serves nitric oxide production and blood flow: Maca 5g, Beta Alanine 5g, citrulline 5g, and Creatine 5g.
@RenaMalikMD. On the cannabis use if you stop using it like smoking will it help with ED as well? What about edibles does that also have a effect as well?
Who feels like, I just got a whole year of medical appointments condensed to 35 minutes of VERY EXPERT advice. The best part is NO deductibles, NO co-pays, No fees, nada, zilch,, THANK YOU, Dr. Malik! 🙏
She does a really good job in explaining things. It's very informative and for me, I can use practical tips to better enhance myself. I have been following her for abit. I guess anything done excessive can be harmful, right?
My ED was caused by proton therapy for prostate cancer. Sildenefil worked for a long time, then suddenly stopped. Now I'm using Trimix with great results. The injection isn't as bad as I feared and the payoff is worth it
So glad to have found this serious, profoundly scientific source of evidence based medical information, presented in this charming way, not shying away from any topic ❤
Honestly, when a man has a sexy partner he has no time to worry about a lot of things. Sex is part of life and as long as a man and a woman have a healthy sexual relationship and take care of themselves a lot of ailments won't visit them. Pornography does help to stimulate the mind and the body when you don't have a woman with whom a sexual relationship is a daily norm. When there is a woman in a man's life and they both are sexually active it becomes a healthy lifestyle.
True. Also put some humour in your daily life. Partners who are always have a lot of fun things to talk and share about has less stress and a more relaxed attitude in life, which in turn helps in having a good erection for the male partner and good cardio health for both.
Not really when you break down the Etymology of the word Psycho Genic. That's Mind and Melanin specifically Neuro Melanin in the Genes. I agree with the benefits though.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts! It’s true that a healthy sexual relationship can contribute to overall well-being, both physically and emotionally. However, I think it’s important to recognize that everyone’s experience with sexuality is different. While pornography might work for some in moderation, it can also have negative effects on others, especially when it starts affecting real-life relationships or mental health. Finding balance and maintaining open communication with a partner about needs and boundaries can help ensure that both emotional and physical health are supported
Great video! Consider reducing the gain on your mic, it's distorting. Additionally apply an EQ boosting the highs and dip the mids. Your sound will be a lot less muddy
Good video! Exercise makes a HUGE difference. Strength training, cardio. Diet's important, too. Balanced and low fat which is why the Mediterranean Diet helps (healthy proteins with lots of fruit & veg). If you're not on a Med diet, consider taking vitamins. C & D. Cut out fat. Supplements like L-arginine, L-carnitine, and collagen can help as well, but be careful and knowledgeable. Too much can be a bad thing. Daily Cialis, too, can be a godsend.
Thanks for the great tips! You’re absolutely right-exercise and a balanced diet play crucial roles in maintaining sexual health. The Mediterranean Diet is a fantastic choice for its heart-healthy benefits and nutrient-rich profile. Supplements like L-arginine and L-carnitine can indeed be helpful, but as you mentioned, moderation and knowledge are key to avoid potential downsides. Daily Cialis can also be a valuable tool for some. It’s all about finding the right mix that works for you and consulting with a healthcare provider to tailor the approach to your needs. Thanks again for sharing these practical insights!
As always; Excellent informative video, Dr. Malik. The eventual cognitive decline, is very scary. Please, if possible, Please expand on this cognitive topic, as well as supplements, to help reverse ED. Thanks again.
As I have said before, I enjoy these scientific based talks. Most of my E.D is psychogenetic starting way back when my wife went thru the change and it also started taking longer for me to get erect as I was getting older. Add my past porn use (which I no longer watch) and that just compounded it. We also went thru a stage of several years with no sex just because we were both afraid we could no longer satisfy each other which caused even more anxiety when we did try. She felt I no longer desired her and I felt she no longer desired me in that way.. After some discussion we agreed I would use and E.D med when we wanted to have sex. It wasn't an instantaneous change but we now have a system that works for us. I probably do not get as much exercise as Dr Malik suggests but I am in good physical health, eat well and get decent exercise 2-3 days per week. Thank you!
Thank you for sharing your journey so openly. It’s really inspiring to see how honest communication with your wife helped both of you navigate such a challenging period. It sounds like you’ve found a great balance that works for your relationship, which is the most important thing. While exercise can definitely help, it’s clear that the emotional and psychological aspects are just as vital. It’s awesome that you’re focusing on your health and making improvements together. Wishing you both continued success and connection!
I’ve been single for 4 yrs after my divorce. So yeah, this has been an issue now that I’m dating and p0rn free for a couple months now. Still having issues but slowly getting there and she’s super understanding and non judgmental about this. I do not want to be on meds for this at my age of only 39.
Thanks for sharing your experience. It’s great to hear that you have a supportive partner - that makes a big difference! It sounds like you’re on the right track by taking steps to address the issue without rushing into medication. Focusing on a healthy lifestyle, open communication, and reducing stress can go a long way. You might also want to explore natural options like pelvic floor exercises or even therapy if anxiety is playing a role. Stay patient with yourself - progress takes time, but you’re not alone in this!
Regarding Pornography and masturbation: for myself as an older man, there is an advantage for pornography versus real person stimulation for masturbation. The majority of my orgasms in my life have been achieved by visual stimulations or just fantasy and not by real live person sex. If I was promiscuous, yes, I would have my orgasms with (many) real people. Also there are risks with having real people sex: social stress and effort (in meeting someone), sexual infections etc. So pornography does have a positive role in achieving sexual orgasm. In my opinion, the only risk with having pornography is visiting sites with illegal visual material. And of course, being obsessed with pornography.
for me there nothing like the real thing..not to claim that I have never partake in porn.....but I was not totally obsessed because I know its dangerous; if a man is obsessed with porn he may eventually go out looking for the real thing that looks like his obsession..and I think thats what makes serial killers..if he is not aware that it could happen..........and I feel convinced now that it affects sex with a partner if you have one......so I have given up on it ...
Marriage has proven to be an effective solution for addressing future sexual concerns. While it may not be ideal for older individuals due to flexibility issues, when it occurs within an optimal time frame, it can significantly mitigate most future sexual-related problems.
Thank you for sharing your perspective! It’s interesting how different people have different experiences when it comes to sexual satisfaction. You’re absolutely right that pornography can provide a safe space for some individuals, especially when real-life encounters come with complexities like social stress or health risks. I think the key point you mentioned is moderation - while it can serve a purpose, overuse or dependency on it can sometimes create challenges in other areas of life, like relationships or self-esteem. As with anything, balance is crucial. It's great that you're aware of the potential risks and approach it with a healthy mindset.
Thank you for being our doctor and teacher * i think _ this is my thoughts ? what you don't used _ gets useless * many bad critics concerning porno ( but ) occasionally tends to enhance marriages while some other times splitting them ( but ) you're not hurting anyone by unloading your stress _ i think * is only but my thoughts 😮
67-year-old male: 15 years ago i had an office job, ate a mostly plant based diet, was 5kg over weight and had issues maintaining an erection. Today I work outdoors, eat a keto/carnivore diet, no problems maintaining an erection and wake up most days with morning wood. Rena in a lot of her videos when referring health talks about high cholesterol been bad, this needs to be put into context, if you have low triglycerides then high cholesterol is fine, especially on a keto diet.
I didn’t know cardiologists and lipidologists work outside these days, but glad to know from a world renowned expert that high ldlc and low TG is “ok”. Luckily we have you to put DOCTOR Rena’s comments into context.
If you are a plant based diet and was overweight, you definitely did it wrong… Makes no sense unless you ate a lot of processed foods and/or wasn’t eating balanced. I was vegan for 6 years and never lost weight until I ate a balanced diet… ED is more common in meat eaters than plant eaters so I’m sure your case is not a norm
Sounds like the only thing that mattered in that was you went from an office job to an outdoor job. Also, studies have shown that people tend to be the least satisfied in their lives at middle age, around 50 years old, and this improves with time. In short, there are far too many variables at play for you to reasonably assume it’s caused by your ketogenic/carnivore diet, especially when the data doesn’t back that up. It’s more likely that you are having better erections in spite of your diet, than because of it.
Hi Dr Rena Malik, your content is informative and current. I appreciate that you create an atmosphere of healthy safe instruction practices; you normalize and give credibilty to our humanity's sexual health. Over the years of listening to your content and taking notes, you are a woman who allows a man to feel clarity and emotional acceptance about the dynamics of relationships from medical and therapeutic professionals that care. Your forum of awareness that sexual health and life goals are intertwined allows me to reflect on my life experience. Thank you Dr Rena Malik!
I’m back here after a year or so of her older ed video….. I started lifting weights and eating lots of red meat and eggs. It’s strong down there now! 💪🏽💪🏽
Really?? You had ED before? Please tell me if that is the case how you cure it. I got ED and I am 29 never had sex but when I tried it with a prostitute I couldn't get hard, tried it with another prostitute but it didn't work.
Such an informative talk on ED . I learned a lot . I am going to share it with all my friends. Regarding myself I am suffering from some degree of psychogenic ED after carefully listening to this video. I would be grateful if you could guide me on its treatment .
Clear and useful video, BUT everybody talks about ED and nobody talks about an inability to climax even when there are no problems with firmness or duration. How about covering this ? Different question - why does needing to pee kill an erection dead ?
Great questions! The inability to climax, or delayed ejaculation, is actually a fairly common issue that often gets overlooked. It can be caused by a variety of factors, including medications, stress, anxiety, or even overstimulation. Sometimes, psychological factors or relationship dynamics can also play a role. It’s worth discussing with a healthcare provider to explore potential underlying causes and treatments, as it’s a very treatable condition. As for needing to pee killing an erection - this happens because the body prioritizes different functions. When your bladder is full, it sends signals to your brain, which can inhibit the signals related to sexual arousal and erections. The two systems are closely connected, so your body essentially 'chooses' to focus on the need to urinate over sustaining an erection.
Just found your videos. Thank you. These videos are informative and really well presented. This gives me a lot of information I can use to better describe my condition and concerns with my physician. You are awesome!! ❤️
I had only 3 week from finding out to the surgery to start the kegels when the physical therapy lady called me and told me I needed to start doing the kegels I feel so sad but I will not give up !! I will overcome !!
I Love the way, you are talking about this matter. There is a huge difference between real sex, which includes stimulation on different levels. Masturbation, on the other hand (pun intended), is very often combined with watching porn. When a man is used to that kind of sexual activity, it may be very hard to enjoy normal sex. I know that very well...
Thank you for your kind words! You’re absolutely right-real sex involves a variety of sensory and emotional experiences that are hard to replicate with just masturbation and porn. The challenge often lies in adapting to these different types of stimulation. It’s great that you’re aware of how these factors can impact sexual enjoyment. Exploring and understanding these dynamics can lead to more fulfilling and balanced experiences. Open communication and patience with oneself and a partner can also make a big difference. Thanks for sharing your insight!
Best advise at the 21 min mark. I thought I had ED but it was due to high blood pressure and cholesterol. It’s an excellent idea to go to your primary doctor and get tested for both! Both are hereditary in my family, and the silent killer! I had no idea.
Thank you for sharing your experience! It’s amazing how sometimes what we think is one issue, like ED, can actually be a sign of something else, like high blood pressure or cholesterol. Getting those checked by your doctor is definitely great advice, especially when they’re hereditary conditions. It’s a real eye-opener for many people since, as you said, they can be silent killers. Kudos to you for taking control of your health - it’s a reminder to all of us to stay proactive and not overlook the importance of regular check-ups!
ED affects half of men in their 50's so it's extremely common. The problem with it is that there are a LOT of causes and they aren't necessarily mutually exclusive so you could have any number of concurrent issues going on which makes it nearly impossible to identify and effectively treat. Most men don't want to untangle all of the causes or dramatically change their lifestyle so they just ask a doctor for a prescription for Viagra and try to deal with it that way. But that doesn't treat the root cause and I suspect symptoms will only get worse over time.
Most men will develop a prostate enlargement problem.which is the root of most sexual problems.. Cialis is a safer medication and will clear up many sexual problems..
Absolutely, you've hit the nail on the head. ED can indeed be a complex issue with multiple overlapping causes, which makes finding the right treatment a bit of a puzzle. While medications like Viagra can offer relief, addressing underlying issues-whether they’re physical, psychological, or lifestyle-related-can lead to more sustainable improvements. It’s important for men to work with their healthcare providers to identify and tackle these root causes, even if it means making some lifestyle changes. It’s all about taking a comprehensive approach to health, rather than just managing symptoms.
Funny: It's all in the mind...it's cultural as well.... I think people should ask if religion causes erectile dysfunction because enjoying sex and going to church can mess up someone's head...lies can mess up someone's head, literally.
imagine blaming the only thing that treats sexual intercourse as sacred an issue. If you're having sex outside marrriage, bring on a world of hurt and risks.. The dysfunction is from people who think sex means nothing. If sex meant nothing, we wouldn't have such heinous crimes associated with it, if its just ''nothing bro''. I haven't watched this vid yet, but if she states that pron doesn't cause ED, she is lying through her teeth, and she is part of the multiple billions dollar problem thats affecting young men today..
@@nevswain478 Yes, sex is vital and important but normal and natural.... The subject is porn causing erectile dysfunction and then you have to ask why would a man watch porn merely to get an erection? He wouldn't....So now you have to get into what excites a man, if porn excites that particular guy, how can porn cause erectile dysfunction? HAHAHA.... This is why this video is 1000% subjective because a guy will watch porn for various reasons. I personally believe guys just want to see women and how women are when it comes to being their true selves as opposed to seeing how women present themselves because it's a huge difference in a woman having sex being her true self than how she is socially, even if she's in a loving sustainable relationship, her personality would be different. A guy is pretty-much open when it comes to his personality and sexuality combined but women are different in that area because they do not or are not actually real or themselves socially...so when it comes to sex, she's an entirely different being...so to see a woman in that environment knowing how she is, that's what a man really loves.
Thanks for the advice. You are basically telling me everything I know and don't wanna hear. Taking all the foods I love away and adding foods I don't like. I guess it all boils down to what you like the most. Your favorite foods or sex. I love both and it's easy to have your favorite foods. It's not so easy finding a partner that likes to do it as much as you do.
Thank you Dr Malik your videos are awesome. I feel like you answer everything I need to know about health and how to improve my relationship with my girlfriend. I could never get all this information from my doctor in a half hour visit.
Thank you Doctor Malik for your time educating us on this issue. I would love to hear more about supplements we can use. I take a 1 a Day multivitamin extra Vitamin D,C and L Arginine and L Citrulline.
One problem I have is a wife with absolutely no sex drive or interest in helping me out. Another problem is pain medication, so yes, I would love for you to make a video on supplements.
I currently have no problems getting it up, if anything, my desire has wained over the last few years, but your video sucked to listen to, but I had to listen to it. Lot of good info. Lots of course corrections to make.
I was a runner! Before I lost my vision! I did keto for years! I had to stop that diet! I have clogged arteries and had 2 A: fib! Not sure if my clogged arteries could be cause?. I I don’t drink nor smoke! I lift weights and eat pretty heavily.
Hey doc... great video ALWAYS. Just a word of advice for your sound quality. Try to lower your volume on your box for where you plug your mic. It is clipping (too loud input). Then your voice will sound smoother and not fuz/distortion. Hope that helps. Blessings to u
Love watching these videos. Longer ones have more details. As far as supplement education, I'd like to learn about your views on L'Citrulline. I've taken it often, with no effect. Recently, I've increased my dosage to about 6mgs, still with no effect. What really bothers me is that I'm in very good physical shape, not overweight, weight training, moderate exercise and sports, eat little meat and poultry, salmon often, no medical conditions to worry about(blood pressure, cholesterol), and yet I'm experiencing mild ED. So neither living right nor a supplement is helping my condition. Not sure what else I need to do!

Yes I would like to know more about. supplements particularly grape seed extract. Raw garlic or aged garlic. Vitamin D3. The right form of magnesium. The right form of zinc. When does vitamin c does it actually help.thanks🎉
Now differentiate between the effect of "porn" and use of attractive people to advertise and sell almost everything.
@RenaMalikMD Let’s talk supplements. My current stack serves nitric oxide production and blood flow: Maca 5g, Beta Alanine 5g, citrulline 5g, and Creatine 5g.

sharing: cholesterol - blended green apple + celery; high BP - dark chocolate; diabetes - fresh herbs . . . plus lower stomach exercise 😊
This couldn't have been more perfectly timed
So informative, so thorough, so honest, so complete, and so helpful. Thank you, Dr. Malik.
I can say from experience that depression and exercise both make a significant difference.
This is what I need to hear. I am 55 and to be informed is the key.
She does a really good job in explaining things. It's very informative and for me, I can use practical tips to better enhance myself. I have been following her for abit. I guess anything done excessive can be harmful, right?
So what's the final verdict, if I may ask? Does it cause ED or doesn't it? Asking for a friend.
Eat beets for extra nitric oxide 😅
Bruh, a few things causes dysfunction... ex, bills, overtime, Mondays, and no money
Facts
😂💀
AND DEBT !!!!
Yes 😤

Thank You Dr. Malik 😊 so many factors to learn & consider but the bottom line is to talk to your Doctor First! 😊
Check your gain levels on your mixer. That's why your audio is scratchy. Lower the gain and your audio will sound better.
Yeah, I caught that too. I think it's clipping.
This is one of the most informative videos I’ve ever watched. Thanks for sharing all this information.
This was a very edifying presentation. Once again, thank you very much Dr. Malik!
My ED was caused by proton therapy for prostate cancer. Sildenefil worked for a long time, then suddenly stopped. Now I'm using Trimix with great results. The injection isn't as bad as I feared and the payoff is worth it

Clear and useful video, BUT everybody talks about ED and nobody talks about an inability to climax even when there are no problems with firmness or duration. How about covering this ?
Different question - why does needing to pee kill an erection dead ?
Great questions! The inability to climax, or delayed ejaculation, is actually a fairly common issue that often gets overlooked. It can be caused by a variety of factors, including medications, stress, anxiety, or even overstimulation. Sometimes, psychological factors or relationship dynamics can also play a role. It’s worth discussing with a healthcare provider to explore potential underlying causes and treatments, as it’s a very treatable condition.
As for needing to pee killing an erection - this happens because the body prioritizes different functions. When your bladder is full, it sends signals to your brain, which can inhibit the signals related to sexual arousal and erections. The two systems are closely connected, so your body essentially 'chooses' to focus on the need to urinate over sustaining an erection.
Ever noticed that when someone asks a question about E.D you never get a straight answer just a mutiplicity of possibilies.
This woman clearly has never experienced E.D.
You are great. You explain everything very well. Thanks for your advice and recommendations.
Love the education Dr Rena , thank you!
Very good and useful content, doctor. Could you please make another video about suplements to avoid ED on healthier persons?
Just found your videos. Thank you. These videos are informative and really well presented. This gives me a lot of information I can use to better describe my condition and concerns with my physician.
You are awesome!!
❤️
This is very informative!! Thanks for sharing this information.
Thank you for these fantastic podcasts Dr....I usually haven’t got the patience to sit through any podcasts till the end, but yours I do. 😎
how great is this lady and such quality info each and every time/ I would move to her city to have her as my primary for sure/dmaa
It's interesting to me how you speak so freely about this topic. Nice teeth BTW. They look natural.
I had only 3 week from finding out to the surgery to start the kegels when the physical therapy lady called me and told me I needed to start doing the kegels I feel so sad but I will not give up !! I will overcome !!
Dr. Malik, your videos are incredibly helpful, but you need a new or better mic.
I am interested to know if taking Nitric Oxide supplement improves ED symptoms
Of course! There's no nitric oxide supplement but there are ingredients that make nitric oxide when inside the body.
When the bank calls for my late payment, dysfunction starts !!

I Love the way, you are talking about this matter.
There is a huge difference between real sex, which includes stimulation on different levels.
Masturbation, on the other hand (pun intended), is very often combined with watching porn. When a man is used to that kind of sexual activity, it may be very hard to enjoy normal sex.
I know that very well...
Thank you for your kind words! You’re absolutely right-real sex involves a variety of sensory and emotional experiences that are hard to replicate with just masturbation and porn. The challenge often lies in adapting to these different types of stimulation. It’s great that you’re aware of how these factors can impact sexual enjoyment. Exploring and understanding these dynamics can lead to more fulfilling and balanced experiences. Open communication and patience with oneself and a partner can also make a big difference. Thanks for sharing your insight!
Best advise at the 21 min mark. I thought I had ED but it was due to high blood pressure and cholesterol. It’s an excellent idea to go to your primary doctor and get tested for both! Both are hereditary in my family, and the silent killer! I had no idea.
Thank you for sharing your experience! It’s amazing how sometimes what we think is one issue, like ED, can actually be a sign of something else, like high blood pressure or cholesterol. Getting those checked by your doctor is definitely great advice, especially when they’re hereditary conditions. It’s a real eye-opener for many people since, as you said, they can be silent killers. Kudos to you for taking control of your health - it’s a reminder to all of us to stay proactive and not overlook the importance of regular check-ups!
I developed ED because of my out of control diabetes . Went through pure hell for almost five years . BUT had a certain procedure and im back baby !!!
What is the procedure plz
ED affects half of men in their 50's so it's extremely common. The problem with it is that there are a LOT of causes and they aren't necessarily mutually exclusive so you could have any number of concurrent issues going on which makes it nearly impossible to identify and effectively treat. Most men don't want to untangle all of the causes or dramatically change their lifestyle so they just ask a doctor for a prescription for Viagra and try to deal with it that way. But that doesn't treat the root cause and I suspect symptoms will only get worse over time.
Most men will develop a prostate enlargement problem.which is the root of most sexual problems.. Cialis is a safer medication and will clear up many sexual problems..
Absolutely, you've hit the nail on the head. ED can indeed be a complex issue with multiple overlapping causes, which makes finding the right treatment a bit of a puzzle. While medications like Viagra can offer relief, addressing underlying issues-whether they’re physical, psychological, or lifestyle-related-can lead to more sustainable improvements. It’s important for men to work with their healthcare providers to identify and tackle these root causes, even if it means making some lifestyle changes. It’s all about taking a comprehensive approach to health, rather than just managing symptoms.
Very informative video ! I hve already started getting mine treated and will mke more changes as time goes on. Thanks for sharing Dr Malik !
Very informative. Really psychological in nature.
We appreciate your teachings 💯
Funny: It's all in the mind...it's cultural as well.... I think people should ask if religion causes erectile dysfunction because enjoying sex and going to church can mess up someone's head...lies can mess up someone's head, literally.
In the US this is painfully obvious with the chronic homophobia and aversion to nudity in general.
Religion may affect your sex drive but turning to Jesus definitely will not...
@skycladraven1248 I agree 👍 💯 Religion and Sexual Habits don't go well together 😮
imagine blaming the only thing that treats sexual intercourse as sacred an issue. If you're having sex outside marrriage, bring on a world of hurt and risks.. The dysfunction is from people who think sex means nothing. If sex meant nothing, we wouldn't have such heinous crimes associated with it, if its just ''nothing bro''. I haven't watched this vid yet, but if she states that pron doesn't cause ED, she is lying through her teeth, and she is part of the multiple billions dollar problem thats affecting young men today..
@@nevswain478 Yes, sex is vital and important but normal and natural.... The subject is porn causing erectile dysfunction and then you have to ask why would a man watch porn merely to get an erection? He wouldn't....So now you have to get into what excites a man, if porn excites that particular guy, how can porn cause erectile dysfunction? HAHAHA.... This is why this video is 1000% subjective because a guy will watch porn for various reasons. I personally believe guys just want to see women and how women are when it comes to being their true selves as opposed to seeing how women present themselves because it's a huge difference in a woman having sex being her true self than how she is socially, even if she's in a loving sustainable relationship, her personality would be different. A guy is pretty-much open when it comes to his personality and sexuality combined but women are different in that area because they do not or are not actually real or themselves socially...so when it comes to sex, she's an entirely different being...so to see a woman in that environment knowing how she is, that's what a man really loves.
Yes I want to learn about supplements. What about diet?
Thanks for the advice. You are basically telling me everything I know and don't wanna hear. Taking all the foods I love away and adding foods I don't like. I guess it all boils down to what you like the most. Your favorite foods or sex. I love both and it's easy to have your favorite foods. It's not so easy finding a partner that likes to do it as much as you do.
Please I need info about supplements. Thanks!!😊
Thank you Dr Malik your videos are awesome. I feel like you answer everything I need to know about health and how to improve my relationship with my girlfriend. I could never get all this information from my doctor in a half hour visit.
Yes, I would like to learn about supplements.
Eat fresh raw beets for nitric oxide
Thank you Doctor Malik for your time educating us on this issue. I would love to hear more about supplements we can use. I take a 1 a Day multivitamin extra Vitamin D,C and L Arginine and L Citrulline.
One problem I have is a wife with absolutely no sex drive or interest in helping me out. Another problem is pain medication, so yes, I would love for you to make a video on supplements.
I currently have no problems getting it up, if anything, my desire has wained over the last few years, but your video sucked to listen to, but I had to listen to it. Lot of good info. Lots of course corrections to make.
Ma'am Doctor, you are amazing!
Thank you for all that you do.
This channel is great
Thanks for the presentations very informative
Thank you Dr. great video and great job ❤❤❤
I was a runner! Before I lost my vision! I did keto for years! I had to stop that diet! I have clogged arteries and had 2 A: fib! Not sure if my clogged arteries could be cause?. I I don’t drink nor smoke! I lift weights and eat pretty heavily.
My hands are tied. Ed is a definitely an issue.

Very informative and educational.
Thanks Dr Rena, very helpful
Very good important advice thank you so much.
Dr. Malik’s eyes get wide when she says ‘expands’ @ 1:17
Yes, I would like information regarding supplements.
Vasculogenic ED seems to be the big deal. Like always, exercise and diet make all the difference
I would like to know if cigar smoking has any affect. I don’t smoke cigarettes, but I do enjoy cigars.
Hello doctor, Can you tell us about supplants, all types associated with the subject, thank you.
Hey doc... great video ALWAYS. Just a word of advice for your sound quality. Try to lower your volume on your box for where you plug your mic. It is clipping (too loud input). Then your voice will sound smoother and not fuz/distortion. Hope that helps. Blessings to u
The clipping makes it difficult to listen to this video, unfortunately.
Love watching these videos. Longer ones have more details. As far as supplement education, I'd like to learn about your views on L'Citrulline. I've taken it often, with no effect. Recently, I've increased my dosage to about 6mgs, still with no effect. What really bothers me is that I'm in very good physical shape, not overweight, weight training, moderate exercise and sports, eat little meat and poultry, salmon often, no medical conditions to worry about(blood pressure, cholesterol), and yet I'm experiencing mild ED. So neither living right nor a supplement is helping my condition. Not sure what else I need to do!
Please let us know what supplements could help cure my ed thank you!!
Fun fact, type 1 collagen is also found in bone, which surprisingly adds a lot of insight to the word "boner".
I would like to learn more about psychogenic ED.
Doc ,where can I see this healthy diet, what are does,don't and do to eat..thanks doc.
