Modern Life – The Killer of Sex
Erectile dysfunction – the inability to achieve or sustain an erection – has affected men through the centuries. But modern life, or rather lifestyle, has perhaps sounded the death knell for sex as we know it. This is because most people have unhealthy lifestyles consisting of a poor diet, lack of exercise and lots of stress. Besides, changing gender rules have threatened the traditional dominance of men in the bedroom and have made women’s sexual satisfaction as important as that of men.
Additionally, most men lead absolutely sedentary lives with jobs that keep them tied to their desks all day and no time to exercise. Rising obesity levels – a natural consequence of sedentary lifestyles – are responsible for serious health conditions that are often associated with greater risk of erectile dysfunction. These conditions include heart disease, diabetes, high cholesterol levels and high blood pressure. Erectile dysfunction is sometimes the first sign that you have more serious health conditions just waiting to surface. Lifestyle habits such as excessive smoking and drinking are also known to lead to erectile dysfunction.
