For a Healthy Manhood - Start with a Healthy Heart

A healthy manhood doesn't exist in a void; because the male organ is connected to a body's entire health system, it can be affected by issues that don't seem to have a direct impact on the organ itself. For example, having a healthy heart can make a difference in male organ health – sometimes a substantial difference.

Connect the dots

How can an organ located in the chest impact an organ located in the crotch? It's easy if a man just connects the dots:

- Dot 1. The heart pumps blood. This is pretty basic, right? Most everybody knows that without a healthy heart, blood just doesn't circulate the way that it needs to. When heart health is negatively impacted, blood flow is impacted.

- Dot 2. The male organ needs blood. Sure, blood is needed just about everywhere in the body, but the male organ needs it for a special reason: without blood, the male organ doesn't get hard. When a man gets excited, arteries expand to allow more blood into the male organ, which then fills up the spongy material in the organ to create firmness. If the male organ doesn't get blood, the hard on doesn't happen.

- Dot 3. Blocked arteries impede blood. When the arteries get "blocked" – a situation known as atherosclerosis, or more commonly, hardening of the arteries – there's less room for blood to get through. This happens when fats build up in the arteries, blocking the endothelium, which is responsible for helping the arteries to open wider – which is what happens when the male organ sends a message that it wants to get harder.

Beyond reproductive function

A healthy heart impacts male organ health in ways that go beyond male performance, of course. Good circulation is important to avoid a feeling of numbness, which can occur in extremities, including the male organ. Impacted blood flow can also contribute to incontinence issues.

It works both ways

It's also important to realize that impacted male organ health is sometimes one of the first signs that a man may be having some sort of cardiac issues. Often, problems with male performance lead a doctor to investigate whether there may be signs of heart disease. One study shows that men with male dysfunction are 80% more likely to develop heart disease.  So the link between a healthy heart and a healthy manhood is pretty clear.

How to maintain a healthy heart

There are several things that a man can do to keep his heart in good health (and therefore help to maintain the health of his male organ as well).

- Exercise. Staying in good physical shape is one of the best ways to keep the heart pumping the way it's meant to. If a man is out of shape, getting back into shape can make a big difference in cardiac health.

- Eat right. Blood sugar and cholesterol are big factors in whether the heart is healthy or not. Diets that are rich in fresh fruits and vegetables and that avoid fatty red meats are more likely to keep the heart happy.

- Don't smoke. Smoking is one of the worst things for the heart.

- Watch blood pressure. High blood pressure exacerbates ill heart health.

- Don't stress out. Stress and anxiety are hard on the heart; finding ways to relax and keep the cool are essential to avoiding heart issues.

A healthy heart helps to maintain a healthy manhood; so does regularly using a superior male organ health cream (health professionals recommend Man 1 Man Oil). The healthy manhood needs a powerful antioxidant to offset harmful oxidative processes in male organ cells, so a cream with alpha lipoic acid is best. Also helpful: a cream with L-arginine, an enzyme which helps create nitrous oxide, which in turn plays a key role in relaxing blood vessels.
