How I Cured My Old Age ED

[John Dough]

Thanks a lot John Dough. I get erections but not that hard and suddenly loose erections during sex. I do not masturbate but watch porn atleast for five minutes daily. Now I have ordered the supplements vitamin D3 of 2000 IU, magnesium glycinate and zinc of 242 MG and 10 MG respectively and vitamin k2 of 450 MG. I am planning to take d3 and k2 once in a three days and k2 daily. For how many months I have take these. Shall I stop if the problem is solved.

There is a high dose vitamin K2 MK-4 (menaquinone-4) supplement that uses a dose of 45 MG (45,000 mcg). Those ones are synthetic and don't work. I tried that one first and never got the clean teeth effect. Later on I tried the low dose 100 mcg vitamin K2 MK-7 made from Natto bacteria fermentation and it gave me the clean teeth effect in about two weeks. It also took away my other bad symptoms. There is also a 45 mcg K2 MK-7 supplement. That one should work. Which one did you order? I don't know of any that have 450 MG or 450 mcg. The important thing is to use the MK-7 supplement, not the MK-4.

"supplementation with MK-4 does not cause a detectable rise in MK-4 blood levels, whereas MK-7 is much more bioavailable than MK-4, and the effects of MK-7 supplementation lasts for days".

You will know your vitamin K2 supplement is working if your teeth suddenly feel smooth and clean. For me this happened after about two weeks of taking it every day. This means the plaque is being removed. The same thing will happen in your arteries. You should finish the bottle, which will take a month or two, depending on how many capsules it contains. If you only take it every third day it will take longer to get results. Vitamin K2 is fat soluble and is stored in the liver. After you finish the bottle you can stop taking it, or take it less often. In my case one bottle was enough to last me for years. If you are still getting the clean teeth effect it is still working. If the clean teeth effect stops, you need more K2, or possibly need some zinc, since it is also used in this process. 10 MG of zinc per day is a reasonable dose that you could take for a few months or even longer. It is stored in the muscles.

Vitamin D3 is stored in the liver. I suggest you take the K2 and D3 every day for about a month. Then you can switch to every third day after your levels are built up or if your symptoms are resolved. You will probably need to take D3 longer than K2. If your levels of D3 are low you might need to take it for several months or more. Your doctor can get your levels tested. After your levels are built up you can take a smaller dose or take it less often. You could stop taking it for awhile and then take it again next year.

Magnesium is so difficult to get enough of in the diet I suggest you keep taking it long term. Once you take vitamin K2 and your body starts removing excess calcium you will need more magnesium until all the excess calcium is gone. This could take years if your situation is as bad as mine was. However, you are much younger than I was when I started (sixties). I plan to never stop taking magnesium. It is that important. If you have tight muscles or get muscle cramps that means you are very low in magnesium. Insomnia is also a symptom of low magnesium.

I eat a lot of vitamin K. For a start, all of my veg, and I eat a lot of veg, is fermented. The problem is 5 a day no longer applies, as most store bought fruit and veg is imported (no matter where you live, it is imported). Similarly, the good is gone out of animals.

The article at the link is titled "Is Vitamin D Harmful Without Vitamin K? It discusses how vitamin D3 increases calcium levels and how that may be harmful to people who are deficient in vitamin K2. Before I knew about vitamin K2 I was taking vitamin D3. I had to stop because it was making my symptoms worse of chest pain and numbness in the left arm. That is what prompted me to research the situation and how I found out about vitamin K2. Older people who have any such symptoms should take the K2 without D3 for awhile. The amount of plaque on your teeth can be an indication of how much plaque is in your arteries. Do take magnesium though.

Unfermented vegetables have vitamin K1 but not K2. The amount of vitamin K2 in fermented vegetables depends on the strain of bacteria used to ferment them. The strain used for Natto works best. You can buy it as a Natto starter kit.

Thanks for that information John I really do appreciate it.

"Semen might become thin and watery when a man has a low sperm count (oligospermia). A man might have watery semen if he doesn't get enough zinc in his diet. Zinc is an important nutrient for sperm production".

https://www.metromaleclinic.com/home...-watery-semen/

"Zinc is an important mineral whose deficiency can cause fertility related problems including watery semen. Deficiency of Zinc can also lead to lower production of testosterone in the body which results in lower sex drive. Lack of selenium also causes the semen to become watery".

https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/325058

"Watery semen can occur due to low sperm count, lifestyle factors, and nutritional deficiencies. Zinc is an important nutrient that supports many essential bodily functions, such as DNA synthesis, fighting off infections, wound healing, and reproduction. Zinc also plays a role in healthy sperm production".

https://www.cnyfertility.com/zinc-and-sperm/

"zinc supplementation may significantly increase semen volume, sperm motility, and the percentage of normal sperm morphology. Zinc is at its highest concentration in human seminal plasma when compared to any other human tissue. Zinc supplementation has been shown to increase testosterone levels and sperm count for men with low zinc".

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8397047/

"Selenium (Se) is an essential component of selenoenzymes, which have catalytic and antioxidant functions. After Se supplementation, they showed a higher sperm concentration, a higher percentage of sperm with progressive motility, and a higher percentage with normal morphology".

It might be a good idea to take a trace mineral supplement containing zinc and selenium. I like the Dr. Berg Trace Minerals Enhanced complex. You can buy it on Amazon or directly from Dr. Berg. Thorne Research Pic-Mins is also good. Oysters are a good food source of zinc and selenium.

What do you mean by sudden loss of erection? Were your erections good until recently and now suddenly they're not, or do you mean you get an erection but then lose it suddenly during sex?

ED caused by clogged arteries has a very slow onset. If you were good until recently, but now aren't, think of what has changed. Have you had an injury, started taking a new prescription drug or started masturbating to porn?

If you are able to get an erection but then lose it during sex, these supplements might help. Quitting porn and masturbation will also help.

Vitamin K2 MK7 should be taken at a dose of about 50 to 200 mcg (micrograms) per day. Supplements are often around 100 mcg.

Vitamin D3 is especially helpful for maintaining an erection during sex. Supplements are usually 800 or 1,000 iu (international units). These are good for a maintenance dose if you are not deficient. If you are deficient, you need more than that. There are some supplements of 5,000 and 10,000 iu but they are not legal in some countries. Try to get somewhere around 2,000 to 5,000 iu. There are supplements that have D3 and K2 MK7 all in one pill. Vitamin D3 is converted in the body to the active form. This process uses up magnesium, so too much vitamin D3 can deplete your magnesium levels. It is important to take magnesium at the same time.

It is difficult to give a dosage for magnesium, since some types of magnesium are better absorbed than others. For example, magnesium oxide is often sold in 500 MG (milligram) pills, but most of it isn't absorbed by the body. The best form is magnesium glycinate but it comes in much smaller doses per pill or capsule (80 to 90 MG) and is more expensive. Read the label. Sometimes they sell something called magnesium bis-glycinate that has a combination of magnesium glycinate and magnesium oxide, to increase the dose per capsule (200 MG) and reduce the price. All forms of magnesium will work. Whatever kind you buy, try to take it at least two or three times per day. I prefer to take it with meals. Magnesium attracts water, so supplements may cause loose bowel movements. This is most likely to happen with the higher doses of the oxide or citrate forms of magnesium. That is why I prefer to take the glycinate form.

What would be the daily requirement of magnesium, D3, K2 for a 44 year old guy suffering from Sudden loss of Erection, and even after trying a lot it won't get erected back during sex.

If you are trying to clean out your arteries from built up gunk, you might want to eat Natto as suggested, but I understand the taste is "rotten" because it is made of rotting soybeans. An easier method is to take Natto Serrapeptase capsules available on Amazon for about $20: - A Fibrinolytic enzyme, breaks down blood clotting fibrin in Serrapeptase (serratiopeptidase) is a protein-digesting enzyme isolated from the friendly bacterium Serratia E-15. * How Does It Work: - Reinforces the actions of plasmin, which your body uses to break down the body's blood clotting agent, fibrin, and thereby prevents abnormal thickening of the blood. - Prevents aggregation of red blood cells, because of its clot-busting and blood-thinning properties. *.

Benefits: - Helps support the circulatory system*. - Helps break down non-living tissues that clog the lining of arteries*. - Helps support the immune system*.

I like to take a Natto Serra capsule after eating protein rich foods like pizza, calzones, steak etc to speed up digestion. Also helps keep the undigested cheese or whatever from building up in your stomach and colon, giving you a flatter stomach, IMO.

The article is about an 82 year old Japanese man from Tokyo who became a porn star at age 70. He attributes his success to eating eggs every day, served raw on a bed of rice, a common breakfast dish in Japan. Eggs are a very nutritious food. They contain everything needed to grow a chicken. The yolks are a fair source of vitamin K2 and other fat soluble vitamins. Eating them raw supposedly makes them easier to digest and is only risky if the shell is cracked. Raw eggs are good in a smoothie.

Not mentioned in the article is that Japan has the longest average life expectancy of major industrial countries. Another common dish served in Japan is Natto, fermented soybeans. It is the highest food source of vitamin K2. Japan also has the lowest ratio of calcium to magnesium in the diet, and the lowest death rate from coronary heart disease as shown on the attached graph.

after speaking to friends they have the same problem of weak ejaculation, watery grey fluid, but none of us have bad prostate results.

Milk contains too much calcium for adults. Read the book "Death by Calcium". Your body uses up magnesium in the process of removing the excess calcium. It is very easy to get too much calcium. It is very difficult to get enough magnesium. This is probably why you get stiff and sore. It is not about getting old. It is about nutritional imbalance. If your sleep problem is insomnia, magnesium will help with that. The most common cause of old age ED is arterial calcification, due to deficiency of vitamin K2 and magnesium, and too much calcium. It is also the most common cause of death by heart attack.

Since you are drinking smoothies, I suggest you add a vegan protein powder. They are a good food source of magnesium and other minerals. Pumpkin seed protein powder is a good one, though rice and pea protein is easier to find. Also add some flax seed. It contains omega 3 oil. Most seeds and nuts contain too much omega 6 oil, which is inflammatory and can cause achy joints and stiff muscles. Omega 3 is anti-inflammatory. Use whole flax seeds if mixing in a blender, since ground flax goes bad very quickly.

OK, thanks for the advice JD! Will wean myself off of the milk like a pup hahaha and start up with the MG too. Probably need to cut down on the peanut butter too, no sugar type but still lots of oil. Will add Omega 3 or use flax seed. It is an amazing thing, lots of good things from such a small seed. E. g. Fiber.

Nice to read and learn something here. You do the site good! Thanks again!

I drink a lot of milk, I know that I shouldn't but I love instant coffee in 100% milk as well as milk in my cereal and smoothies. Could this be why I get extremely stiff and sore even though I workout regularly at 70 or just part of getting old? I think my ED stems from sleep problems that I am finally getting under control.

If you increase your muscle storage levels of magnesium, you will feel more flexible. Calcium makes the muscles contract and magnesium makes them relax. It might take high doses to achieve this if you have been deficient for a long time or if you are heavily calcified. Epsom salt is magnesium sulfate. Some people take epsom salt baths to relieve tight muscles. Supposedly you absorb the magnesium through the skin. That method can be used in addition to supplements to get higher doses.

This discussion is awesome and some great advice as well as explanations on vitamins and effects. I drink a lot of milk, I know that I shouldn't but I love instant coffee in 100% milk as well as milk in my cereal and smoothies. Could this be why I get extremely stiff and sore even though I workout regularly at 70 or just part of getting old? I think my ED stems from sleep problems that I am finally getting under control. I have MG supply that I got for some forgotten reason so I guess I should just try it and see but you guys seem much more in tune so I thought to ask.

Though I am still fit and healthy, and exercise regularly, the flexibility of youth is gone.

I have been taking K2 and D3 as supplements along with magnesium and I find quite a few of the comments I've experienced like smoother cleaner teeth apart from that nothing else really. I have only started using them for the last 8 weeks.

For me, the clean teeth effect occurred after about two weeks of daily K2 MK7 supplementation. I didn't start to notice improvements in erections until three months after I started K2. It began with a return to getting morning wood. Then, over time, I noticed more spontaneous erections. Things continued to improve for three years. The benefits were generally in an improved ability to achieve an erection. I reversed about 30 years of decline. This is in my sixties, after getting chest pains and numbness in the left arm, so your case may be different. It took a lifetime to clog the arteries, so it can take a few years to unclog them.

With vitamin D3 I didn't start to notice improved erections until taking it daily for one month. The biggest improvement was in the ability to maintain an existing erection. Individual results may depend on one's levels when starting supplementation. Some research suggests it is necessary to reach an optimum higher level before changes will occur, at least for testosterone. Studies show older people are more likely to be deficient in vitamin D3 and also B12. I didn't notice improved erections from B12, but seem to feel better overall. I like the sublingual tablets that dissolve under the tongue. B12 is the only B vitamin that is stored in the body. I take a bottle of it once per year.

Before I took K2 and magnesium I would get 6 contractions during ejaculation. Now I get 12. Count yours sometime. Studies show most older men have a calcified prostate. This can cause weak ejaculation. Vitamin K2 and magnesium can also decalcify the prostate and other organs, not just arteries. Thin, gray semen may indicate a zinc deficiency.
