Male erectile dysfunction can cause heart disease Seven delicacies have therapeutic effects on sexual dysfunction
Erectile dysfunction (hereinafter referred to as ED) is also known as "impotence". For men, they are particularly afraid of hearing about this disease. If they get it in a small way, it will be even more difficult for many people to say. So what is it? What about ED? In 1992, the National Health Center of the United States, after discussion by experts, defined penile erectile dysfunction as the inability of the penis to maintain and/or maintain sufficient erections to obtain a satisfactory sexual life (sexual intercourse).
In real life, only ED is enough to be a headache. If it is still related to heart disease, it seems more at a loss. However, it is noteworthy that another study shows that ED or early signal of heart disease.
As for ED, we often associate it with male alcoholism, smoking, kidney disease or psychological disorders, but heart disease rarely enters people's vision.
In fact, scientists have long suspected that ED is related to heart health. Therefore, according to a new study of Suzhou University published in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology, this study has never stopped. ED may be an early signal of heart disease.
This new study, involving nearly 371200 men, "Research on the relationship between ED and heart disease", shows that compared with men with normal sexual life, ED men have a 48% higher risk of heart disease and a higher mortality rate. This risk may be independent of conventional cardiovascular risk factors such as obesity, smoking, diabetes and hypertension.
Patients with ED should be alert to heart disease
Erectile function is the weather vane and barometer of male health. Local manifestations of various systemic diseases can occur for 2-3 years before ED coronary heart disease.
A long-term follow-up study released by American scientists also shows that men with impotence are more likely to suffer from heart disease than men without impotence.
In this study, in order to understand the sexual function and cardiovascular system of men, researchers conducted a follow-up survey of 2000 men aged 40-79 for 19 years. Although the researchers finally said that the research results did not confirm that impotence must indicate that heart disease was about to occur, the data they obtained in 1996 showed that from 1979 to 1995, the number of impotence patients among heart disease patients was 3.5 times that of men without heart disease.
