How I Cured My Old Age ED

[AugustChrist]

Hi Travv,

Would you mind sharing how you went after the GlyNAC supplementation?

Thanks.

GlyNAC supplementation reverses aging hallmarks in aging humans.

A randomized, double blind human clinical trial conducted by researchers at Baylor College of Medicine reveals that supplementation with GlyNAC a combination of glycine and and-acetylcysteine improves many age-associated defects in older humans and powerfully promotes healthy aging. This is relevant because until now, there have been no solutions toward improving many of these age-related declines in people.

Published in the Journal of Gerontology: Medical Sciences, the study shows that older humans taking GlyNAC for 16-weeks improved many characteristic defects of aging. This includes oxidative stress, glutathione deficiency and multiple aging hallmarks affecting mitochondrial dysfunction, mitophagy, inflammation, insulin resistance, endothelial dysfunction, genomic damage, stem cell fatigue and cellular senescence. These were associated with improvements in muscle strength, gait speed, exercise capacity, waist circumference and blood pressure.

"This is the first randomized clinical trial of GlyNAC supplementation in older humans, and it found that a wide variety of age-associated abnormalities improved in older adults supplemented with GlyNAC, while no improvements were seen in those receiving placebo," said corresponding author Dr. Rajagopal Sekhar, professor of medicine. Endocrinology, diabetes and metabolism at Baylor.

The improvements in oxidative stress, glutathione levels and mitochondrial function in the muscle tissue of older humans taking GlyNAC were similar to the improvements in organs such as the heart, liver and kidneys of aged mice supplemented with GlyNAC as reported in the researchers' recent publication. Taken together, the results of these studies show that GlyNAC supplementation can improve these defects in many different organs of the body. "GlyNAC supplementation in aging mice increased their length of life mice by 24% said Sekhar. "Gait speed is reported to be associated with survival in older humans. Our randomized clinical trial found a significant improvement in gait speed in older humans supplemented with GlyNAC. This raises the interesting question of whether GlyNAC supplementation could have implications for survival in people".

I bought some NAC and Glycine from Life Extension Foundation (LEF) since it didn't cost that much. I take 1 NAC and 1 Glycine capsule with breakfast and and again at dinner, along with Vitamin K, Magnesium and Vitamin see. Cheaper than going to a hospital with a heart attack. See:

Hello.

Does anyone try ashwagandha? In pills or in enzoy.

"Zinc, magnesium and D3, K2 are all I need for healthy libido".

"Vitamin D can do great things for libido and other things. However, it is not a miracle supplement. A level of 11 ng / ML could very well be the cause of your low libido. You'll definitely want to get that up. Recommended levels vary but it seems that anywhere between 40-80 ng / ML is the general consensus. Some will say lower. Others higher. You'll need to find the best level for you. Personally, I've found that around 50 ng / ML is good for me. Too high is just as bad as too low.

As far as libido goes, I can say, even though I'm male, when my the level rose up around 50 ng / ML, I was wanting to go multiple times a day and STILL wanted more. Things were nice and robust down there, too. Always waking up with MW and ready to go. It was fun. I was in my late 20's when I began supplementing blindly. Not really knowing a ton about what I was doing.

Over time, because vitamin D is stored in the body over time, there began to be diminishing returns. Once my level rose around 75 ng / ML, it kind of diminished. Which I later learned that it was likely due to magnesium depletion and increased calcium absorption that was creating a mineral imbalance. I had foolishly increased my dosage from 5,000 IU D3 which had my level around 45-55 ng / ML and peaking at 62 ng / ML in the summer to 10,000 IU D3 for no real reason.

I thought more was better. WRONG. That was when the issues started. The best way I've ever heard it explained is to think of vitamin D like a gas tank and not a bank account. Once your "tank" is full, it's full. Adding more isn't going to help you anymore. The size of your "tank" will vary from the next person but the concept remains the same.

You need to ensure that you are taking the appropriate co-factors. Magnesium, K2, etc".

Vitamin K is not recommended for anyone (me) presently on a blood thinner as it thickens the blood. It seems best to leave your blood thinner first, in consultation with your cardio, and begin your experimentation with MK 7, something I plan on doing.

https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/17158229/

"hematologists should be aware that preparations supplying 50 mug/d or more of MK-7 may interfere with oral anticoagulant treatment in a clinically relevant way".

https://innovixlabs.com/blogs/insigh...nd-coagulation

"Vitamin K2 supplementation higher than 50 mcg per day requires INR monitoring by your doctor because the K2 may be undoing some of the intended effect of Warfarin. Virtually all K2 supplements contain more than 50 mcg per pill".

https://www.lifeextension.com/vitami...ose-vitamin-k2

"Life Extension. Low Dose Vitamin K2 MK-7 45 mcg".

https://innovixlabs.com/blogs/insigh...nd-coagulation

"Vitamin K (both K1 and K2) can interfere with blood thinning medications like Warfarin and Coumadin. Does this mean you have to completely avoid Vitamin K2 supplements or foods rich in Vitamin K2? No. There are a couple of things you can do to remain on anti-coagulant drugs (if your doctor deems it necessary) as well as consume a reasonable amount of Vitamin K2 to keep your bones strong and your arteries healthy: Work with your doctor to find a balance that thins the blood yet does not weaken your bones. This will require multiple blood tests. Talk to your doctor about anti-coagulant drugs that do not interfere with Vitamin K2".

"If you take too much Warfarin, you can wipe out most of your body's Vitamin K. This causes an artificial, drug-induced Vitamin K deficiency. For both K1 and K2. Long-term use of these drug may lower bone density and increase risk of fractures. It may also cause inappropriate calcium deposits in soft tissues like arteries, kidneys etc. If you are concerned about the effect this medication may have on your bone mineral density, talk to your doctor about testing for uncarboxylated osteocalcin or uncarboxylated GLA proteins. Both these markers are a good measure of your Vitamin K status and by extension, an indicator for bone density loss".

"Newer generation of anti-coagulant drugs do not affect Vitamin K status like Coumadin / Warfarin. Newer generation of anticoagulation drugs such as Dabigatran, Rivaroxaban, and Apixaban do not interfere with Vitamin K1 and K2 function. They require less blood monitoring while offering similar benefits as Warfarin. These new drugs allow you to take effective doses of Vitamin K2 to maintain bone density while simultaneously thinning your blood. A balance that is difficult to achieve with Warfarin".

Thank you for your fine research and info, JD. I, too, did research based on your reports and found one thing to be careful of: Vitamin K is not recommended for anyone (me) presently on a blood thinner as it thickens the blood. It seems best to leave your blood thinner first, in consultation with your cardio, and begin your experimentation with MK 7, something I plan on doing. Thanks for all your effort here, JD, in the interest of better boners! In a more hands-on way, chi nei tsang massage and Karsai nei tsang are recommended as a manual way of releasing blockages in the genitals and abdomen and restoring good blood flow, which is all an erection is, after all. I'm on my way to Thailand to experiment with this. Perhaps a combo of abdomen / genital massage and MK 7 would be a dynamic combo? Ah, getting old ain't easy, is it.

I have a Doctorate degree, and its not as simple as you say K2, John Dough. Many factors can cause limp dick. Fat ugly bossy women is one. Sex is psychological. If there is no adventure and desire, there is no erection. You can take all the Viagra and Cialis you want, but unless your mind has a desire, connection and attraction there is no erection. More money is spent on eye makeup than on eye research. And testosterone does decrease with age.

Sex is psychological but there are also physical reasons for ED. For example low testosterone, high levels of estrogen, BPH, poor blood circulation to the sex organs. But no arguments that the mind and mental stimulation are big factors as well as depression or anxiety. I am only speaking from personal experience and don't ave a PhD. Just curious, what is yours in?

[John Dough]

the K2-7 is already working on the teeth; great feeling with already 50-60% slower plaque accumulation.

To get to 100% less plaque, I have two suggestions. Increase zinc supplements for a few days. If that works, then you know you were deficient. The other suggestion is to quit all milk products and supplements that contain calcium for awhile and see if that helps. Your K2 and magnesium supplements may be being used up neutralizing the calcium in your daily diet.

For new visitors to this thread who don't have time to read from the beginning, I cured my old age ED by unclogging my arteries. Arterial plaque is the most common cause of old age ED and also death by heart attack. Contrary to popular belief, arterial plaque is composed mostly of calcium, not cholesterol. The plaque that accumulates on teeth is the same as in the arteries, giving us a way to evaluate our progress. We can remove the plaque by increasing our consumption of vitamin K2, which controls calcium distribution in the body. This is different than vitamin K1, which deals with blood clotting.

One study showed that 97% of subjects tested were deficient in vitamin K2. The only sufficient food sources of K2 are natto, goose liver and emu oil, with decent amounts in duck fat. Small amounts are found in high cholesterol saturated fats like egg yolks, butter and animal fat, the stuff the "experts" told us to avoid. There are two different forms of supplements, one of which works and one which doesn't. This has been proven by studies and reflects my personal experience. At first I tried synthetically produced K2 MK4 supplements and they didn't work for me. Then I tried K2 MK7 supplements made from natto bacteria.

After taking vitamin K2 MK7 for about two weeks, my teeth felt smooth and slippery against my tongue, even without brushing. This is an indication that plaque is being released, which also happens in the arteries. I finished the bottle and haven't taken more since, though I have tried to increase food sources. Vitamin K2 is fat soluble and is stored in the liver for years, so you don't have to supplement it continuously. Use your teeth as an indication of your requirements. Zinc is also used up in this process, so you might need to supplement it if the smooth teeth effect diminishes as time goes by, or if K2 MK7 supplements aren't working for you. You could also try a different brand of K2 MK7.

After the calcium plaque is released from the surface of the arteries, it is removed from the blood and excreted in the urine. This process uses up magnesium. Most people have too much calcium and not enough magnesium, so you should supplement magnesium on an ongoing daily basis after getting the smooth teeth effect. It took a lifetime to build up the plaque and it could take years to remove it from the arteries. It took me three years to get the full improvement in erectile function. The most common symptom of magnesium deficiency is tight muscles. Insomnia is another. Magnesium is stored in the muscles and helps them relax. With sufficient magnesium muscle storage levels, you will feel more flexible and limber, like when you were younger.

Other topics discussed in this thread are ED caused by porn and masturbation, which can even affect young healthy men, and ED caused by vitamin D3 deficiency. Falling testosterone and rising estrogen with age might be caused by a deficiency of zinc, which studies show is common in older people. Thin, watery semen can be caused by zinc deficiency. In the previous posts in this thread I have provided links to studies that support these ideas.

I can attest to this being the case. At least for a while. Even at 65 I can do two to three different girls a day. Especially if they are unique new ones.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coolidge_effect

"The Coolidge effect is a biological phenomenon whereby males exhibit renewed sexual interest whenever a new female is introduced, even after sex with prior but still available sexual partners. The Coolidge effect can be attributed to an increase in sexual responsiveness, and a shortening of the sexual refractory period. The Coolidge effect is attributed to an increase in dopamine levels and the subsequent effect upon an animal's limbic system".

https://www.yourbrainonporn.com/ybop...e-effect-2011/

"Following each copulation with the same female his reward circuitry squirts less and less dopamine. Consider the graph. The fifth time a rat copulates with the same female it takes him 17 minutes to get off. Ejaculation time increases as dopamine released decreases. But if he keeps switching to novel females, he can do his duty very quickly all five times. His brain renews his virility with strong squirts of dopamine in response to each new partner. Unlike rats, humans are pair bonders. But the Coolidge Effect lurks in us, too".

I don't think there is a universal answer to this question. I believe the dose response would plateau when the muscle tissue is saturated. The amount required would likely vary, depending on the individual's tissue levels before supplementation and also on their personal burn rate.

This sounds reasonable. I'm longtime into supplements, but pretty new to magnesium supplementation and its actions. I will continue with this dosage and see. As mentioned in an earlier post the K2-7 is already working on the teeth; great feeling with already 50-60% slower plaque accumulation.

[John Dough]

The plateau of the dose-response curve.

I don't think there is a universal answer to this question. I believe the dose response would plateau when the muscle tissue is saturated. The amount required would likely vary, depending on the individual's tissue levels before supplementation and also on their personal burn rate. It would be similar to charging a cell phone battery. What was the level of charge before plugging it in? What apps are running while it is being charged?

After taking vitamin K2 MK7 and getting the smooth teeth effect, I need more magnesium to prevent tight muscles than I did previously. My magnesium burn rate has increased in order to excrete excess calcium that has been released from the walls of the arteries. How long this process takes for each person depends on the amount of plaque they had accumulated.

[Pute Nut]

I prefer glycinate.

Thank you. Currently using an oxide / citrate / carbonate combo. Current dose on a non-fasting day is 1200 MG (total).

I don't understand the question. Please rephrase.

The plateau of the dose-response curve.

[John Dough]

Do you have any recommendation about the magnesium dosage and types preferred? Currently doing triple type and what I consider pretty high doses (600-1200 MG / day).

Scroll down and read some of my previous posts on magnesium. If you take magnesium oxide, you would probably need to take thousands of milligrams per day, since very little is absorbed by the body. You could take hundreds of milligrams of magnesium glycinate and absorb the same amount. I prefer glycinate. I suggest paying close attention to how you feel when you take it. That is your clue to the correct dose. If you have muscle stiffness, you need more. If you are as limber as a ballerina, you have enough. Everyone is different.

Where can we expext it to plateau?

I don't understand the question. Please rephrase.
