Here are some relevant quotes from the study :
' Greater dietary thiamin intake demonstrated a statistically significant association with reduced incidence of ED. Our findings suggest that a lower intake of thiamin is an independent risk factor with ED. We can consider increasing the intake of thiamine in daily food. '
' We discovered associations between thiamin and several systemic diseases, all of which are also linked to ED. Therefore, we proceeded to further investigate whether variations in thiamin levels might trigger ED. We observed that an increase in thiamin intake levels did not show a significant trend of elevated testosterone levels. However, what we did find was that as thiamin intake levels increased, there was a reduction in the incidence of ED (table 2). Therefore, we proceeded to further stratify our analysis based on the severity of ED to examine the variations in the expression of these corresponding parameters. A key observation we made is that as the severity of ED increases, there is a corresponding decrease in the intake levels of thiamin. Furthermore, similar to the previous findings, as the severity of ED increases, there is a trend of decreasing levels of education and income, accompanied by a worsening of systemic metabolic disorders such as hypertension and diabetes (table 3). '
I found this third study quote to be very interesting as it suggests that low B1 levels is also associated with many other health issues suggesting that making sure you maintain healthful levels of B1 may go a long way toward fending off many health issues :
' We found that higher food thiamin intake was significantly associated with lower incidence of hypertension, diabetes, coronary heart disease, stroke and ED (all p trend 1.3 μg were 0.782 (0.651 to 0.940) (p<0.05). These findings suggest that dietary thiamin intake may play a protective role in the development of ED and other cardiometabolic disorders. Increasing thiamin consumption through dietary modification or supplementation could represent a potential strategy for ED prevention and management. '
To reach healthful levels of B1, the study suggests that even the lowest dose B1 supplements should be adequate to achieve the effects they saw in the study.

The Vital Importance of Nitric Oxide (NO) for Overcoming ED Paracelsus (Orlando, fl) on 04/22/2021
I've finally put together the pieces of the puzzle. Although I don't have heart disease and my ED is/was only an occasional thing, I do have high blood pressure. In the past I found that red beets, especially the juice from red beets (beet root), is extremely effective at lowering my blood pressure. Unfortunately, after about 12 hours or so, the effect of the beets goes away.
Why is nitric oxide critical for our health and especially for maintaining healthy blood pressure and sexual health?
“Released by the inner layer of cells (endothelium) of blood vessels, nitric oxide relaxes the vessels and keeps them flexible, allowing them to dilate, boosting blood flow, and helping to control blood pressure. Nitric oxide also has anti-inflammatory effects and helps prevent platelets and white blood cells from adhering to the lining of blood vessels, thus reducing the risk of plaque development. As we age, our cells produce less nitric oxide, so blood vessels become less flexible, which contributes to hypertension, inflammation in blood vessels, and atherosclerosis (plaque buildup)—that is, cardiovascular disease.”
https://www.berkeleywellness.com/self-care/preventive-care/article/why-nitric-oxide-so-important
Now that you know the importance of nitric oxide and why it decreases with age, you probably want to know how you can fix it. The good news is that the body has a number of pathways to produce NO. One of them involves your gut microbiome. The trillions of good bacteria and yeast that live in your gut and account for 80% of your immune system.
For those who are interested in the science and biochemistry behind the process, I am including the process here:
The chemistry for the production of NO involves 3 steps. Consumption of nitrate (NO3) rich foods, the reduction of nitrate to nitrite (NO2) and the further reduction from nitrite to nitric oxide (NO). (Nitric oxide cannot be supplemented since it is an unstable gas and will quickly oxidise back to nitrate and nitrite).
The following is one of several ways in which these reactions can take place in our bodies:
The following reaction converts nitrate (N03 from food with the help of gut bacteria) to nitrite (N02) and water.
Bacterial nitrate reductase:
NO3 – + e– + H+ → NO2 – + H2O
This is then further reduced from nitrite to nitric oxide (NO). This is facilitated with ascorbate (Vitamin C). It’s a 2 step process where with the help of vitamin C nitrite is converted to nitrous acid (HN02) and then from there to Nitric Oxide (NO water and a transformed type of vitamin C).
Ascorbate:
NO2 – + H+ → HNO2
2 HNO2 + Asc → 2 • NO + dehydroAsc + 2 H2O
Higher levels of Nitric oxide help athletic performance, prevents Alzheimer's and Parkinson's, lowers blood pressure, and fixes erectile dysfunction (ED).
What to do in summary if you want to fix ED and lower blood pressure as well as get all of the other benefits of increased levels of NO?
1.Avoid glyphosate since that kills your microbiome and causes all sorts of serious havoc in your body. (Avoid soy and corn that is not organic. Eat as much organic vegetables and fruits as possible. Also, avoid non organic wheat products such as bread and pasta, since that is heavily sprayed in the USA just before harvesting. If you eat imported pasta and bread from Europe, that isn’t the case and you should be fine.)
2. Juice or otherwise incorporate organic red beets and green vegetables into your diet.
3. Drink kefir.
Kefir has tons of benefits besides helping in the production of NO. Our gut is said to constitute 80% of our immune system, so we should focus most of our attention on our gut, or more specifically on the microbiome in our gut.
After switching from yogurt to kefir, I saw great improvements in my energy levels, stamina and overall health. Kefir is the heavy weight champion of probiotic foods. It contains over 60 different strains of beneficial bacteria as well as several strains of beneficial yeast. Milk kefir has the ability to colonize your intestines with beneficial bacteria and thus rebuild your microbiome.
Integrating red beets and kefir into my diet on a regular basis has made a big difference to my health and I hope it can do the same for you! Only doing one without the other will only get you partial results. So I highly recommend doing both.
I hope that this article will be posted by EC under Kefir and high blood pressure cures as well.
Thanks for reading and God bless!

Just about 2 tbls in a glass of water every evening before bed. Works for me.
Hydrogen Peroxide Therapy and ED Bill (Melbourne, Australia ) on 11/04/2017
I started doing h2o2 therapy for a health cleanse but could only make it up to 3 drops of 35%h2o2 in a glass of milk 2 times a day. Any more than than 3 for me was revolting. I did this for about one or two weeks. At the same time I was taking a natural testosterone booster.
Within 2 days at night just after going to bed I would get a rock hard erection that seemed to last for 30 minutes or more. After falling asleep would wake up with morning wood at about 5am with same strength and intensity.
I finished my t-boost tablets and stopped the h2o2 a couple of weeks earlier. At that stage I thought it was t-boost, and because I liked feeling like a twenty something down in that department I ordered some more natural t-boost at 60 bucks for 6 weeks supply.
Received my order within a week and started taking the t-boost and guess what.... Not a thing.... Went back to my old ways down stairs.. And just forgot about it....
It had been about a year and I had some left over h2o2 that I thought I should use before it goes off. It was at this time that the penny dropped that it could have been the h2o2 that was the source of my virility 12months earlier.
So on Wednesday night of last week I put 1 drop of 35% H2o2 in a glass of water and drank it.
At about 2am Thursday morning I woke up to a rock hard erection and went back to sleep.
The following night no h2o2 was taken and I was woken at 5am with morning glory.
I am in no doubt that h2o2 is giving me strong and hard erections, with no immediate side effects. I have tried viagra once, and will not use it again. It worked but no where near to what I have experienced with h2o2. Viagra left me dehydrated and with the dirtiest headache the next morning.
I see another poster said he found it helped his Ed. My experience agrees with him completely.
My question is..... Why is this happening. Why does ingesting a drop of H2o2 mixed with water having this effect?

To Duracell last coat crotch with iodine. Use 1 capful of DMSO and get frisky. Takes a lick-in and keeps on tic-kin. You will be amazed. Also gets rid of "Red itchy Balls" ( also good to bring blood and sensitivity to clit )

If you have BP or Heart issues check with your doctor. Read up on it carefully. Start, say, with 5mg with food. Works!

Eat spinach with some tomato on an empty stomach (2-4 hours) after supper later at night around 11 pm-2 am.
I was hungry one night, and had nothing else to snack on. It caused an erection and horniness about 2 hours later. Repeated and had same reaction another night as an experiment.
I think empty stomach and later at night is key.

Do not over indulge ejaculating as it will weaken your system in the long run.
