The answer is yes. Both juices and oils are incredibly effective in combatting erectile dysfunction. However, which one is the most effective depends on your particular situation. Let’s take a look.
Olive Oil
Olive oil is extremely effective in treating erectile dysfunction, particularly in cases where the condition is due to nerve damage or heart disease. It has a very high therapeutic index, which means it’s pretty safe when used in large doses (up to 10 milliliters every day).
There are two main reasons why olive oil is so effective in treating erectile dysfunction: First, it has a high content of antioxidants, which protect the cells in the penis from damage caused by free radicals. Free radicals are unstable molecules that can lead to cell damage and premature aging. Antioxidants, such as vitamin C and E, can help reduce the negative effects of free radicals. Second, olive oil facilitates the relaxation of the muscles in the penis, allowing blood to flow into the organ and maintain an erection. It also helps to keep the penis warm, preventing the formation of cold sores and genital herpes.
Lemon Juice
Like olive oil, lemon juice has a very high therapeutic index, which means it’s very safe when used in large doses. It is also rich in antioxidants and vitamin C. However, its chief source of nutrients is citric acid, which has an extremely high acidity level. This level of acidity interferes with the functionality of many proteins, including enzymes and growth hormones. Furthermore, the citric acid in lemon juice prevents semen from coagulating, making it easier for the sperm to swim to the ova for fertilization. Due to its high acidity level, it is not recommended to use lemon juice to treat a condition of mild to moderate hypertension (high blood pressure).
Viagra
Viagra is one of the most popularly prescribed medications for erectile dysfunction, particularly in cases where the condition is due to a neurological or psychological cause. The active ingredient in Viagra is sildenafil, which is a type of medicine known as a phosphodiesterase inhibitor. It allows for more stable erections, especially in cases where the cause is due to nerve damage or lack of blood flow to the penis. When used in combination with a nitrate inhaler, Viagra can also be effective in treating pulmonary hypertension (high blood pressure in the lungs).
Summary
Both lemon juice and olive oil are safe and effective, with minimal side effects, in treating erectile dysfunction. While olive oil may be more effective, particularly in cases where the condition is due to nerve damage or heart disease, lemon juice is the preferred choice for those with diabetes or low blood pressure. When choosing an oil, make sure to purchase a medical-grade variety that meets the standards of the United States Pharmacopeia (USP). Furthermore, make sure to consult with your physician or urologist to determine the proper dosage for your particular situation.
