Erectile Dysfunction (ED) occurs throughout a man's lifetime and isn't always attributed to serious causes. Sometimes, simple triggers such as stress, excessive alcohol use, or cigarette smoking can be the culprits. However, diseases such as Diabetes or Heart Disease may contribute to Erectile Dysfunction, therefore it is always a good idea to seek medical advice before treating the condition. With that said, there are a number of herbal and natural remedies that make self-treatment for ED available for everyone. It is especially important to remember that even though a product may be all natural or herbal, it may still have contraindications with prescription medication. Therefore it is essential to check the labels of any natural products and heed any advice given. Double-checking with your health care professional before taking herbal supplements is also a good way to ensure that you are benefiting your health and not harming it.

With that said, there are a number of natural remedies that are suitable for improving Erectile Dysfunction. First, it is important to understand that there are three basic components that are necessary for achieving an erection. First, the brain must receive stimulation. This occurs through sensory stimulation. Once the brain is stimulated, it sends signals to the nervous system. This means that the nerves surrounding the penis must be in proper working function in order to achieve and maintain an erection. After the nervous system plays its part, the circulatory system comes into effect. Once the nerves receive their signal from the brain, blood must flow through the circulatory system to the penis. The increased blood flow causes the penis to become engorged and an erection is achieved.

Herbal and natural remedies can enhance all three of these areas. Since stress, anxiety, depression, and a failure to relax can contribute to Erectile Dysfunction using natural remedies that help promote relaxation are very beneficial in treating Erectile Dysfunction. These may include aromatherapy, acupuncture, and deep tissue massage. If you are having Erectile Dysfunction due to emotional or stress related conditions, try using some of these remedies to promote relaxation and increase the chance of having a successful erection.

Since nerve damage or an impaired nervous system also contributes to Erectile Dysfunction, choosing natural herbal remedies that help restore the nervous system has been shown to be highly beneficial. Also, herbs that improve circulation and help promote blood flow to the penis have been used for centuries to improve erections. Some of the most common herbs used include:

Tongkat Ali

Tribulus Terrestris

Maca

Muira Palma

Damiana

Fo-Ti

Horny Goat Weed

Asian Ginseng

Ginkgo Biloba Many of these herbs are combined and processed into easy to swallow capsules, which are often referred to as sexual enhancement pills due to the aphrodisiacal effect they have. Along with these natural herbal remedies, there are also a number of vitamins and amino acids that have been useful in treating Erectile Dysfunction. L-Arginine is an Amino Acid that is vital in causing the blood vessels that surround the penis to relax. It has been commonly referred to as "Natural Viagra." Another Amino Acid that has been used to treat Erectile Dysfunction is Propionyl-L-Carnitine. In addition to these Amino Acids, many men have reported success in treating Erectile Dysfunction when they have added nutritional supplements such as Vitamin C, Vitamin E, Flaxseed Oil, and Zinc to their diets.
