He is also an Institute for Functional Medicine Practitioner. Upon graduation from his residency he joined the Indian Health Service. He worked on the Navajo reservation for 4 years at the Chinle Comprehensive Medical Facility where he served as the Outpatient Department Coordinator. In 2000, he founded Cornerstone Family Practice in Rowley, MA. He practiced with a philosophy centered on personal relationships and treating the whole person, not just not the disease.

The "Little blue pill " changed my life.... it takes away the anxiety and pressure to "perform"... It makes life fun...

Clever guys - sexual health is not only critical, but clearly is also an indicator of our overall health. These discussions can be difficult, but it’s essential we have them.

I have ED and it is not sugar ,overweight, or anything else physical, Cialis make no difference in any way. It is the attitude of a woman, and the way self esteem dies completely. 20 years of nothing destroys everything .

Great info and it's amazing how complex the human bodies are and how they are interconnected as far as being a fully functional male and how we can suffer health wise if we don't pay attention to these signs and symptoms that our bodies are trying to tell us !!

Nobody can become financially successful overnight. They put in background work but we tend to see the finished part. Fear is a dangerous component, hindering us from taking the bold steps we need in other to reach our goals.

Excellent discussion!

Such a powerful episode thank you so much

I'm 69 years old and fit right into your example (except for the alcohol - i don't have any alcohol intake)

Great discussion! You guys need to pick up some of the euphemisms, such as the Brits use (your John Thomas, etc)! 😊 But a really great explanation of the physiology and chemistry. Thanks for emphasizing the overall holistic health. I'd like to also learn more about the "failure" of sildenifil for blood pressure, notably because I am finding it to be very effective at this. This is in addition to managing stress, diet, and exercise, as an overall approach, but the incremental effect of sildenifil is remarkable, and I'd like to understand the mechanism more.

I appreciate the holistic approach discussed here. ED is a marker for bigger issues that, if not corrected, will result in LD ... living dysfunction.

Great video love the way you guys go into details about what causes ED. What really hit me is poor sleeping which is huge problem for me because of high anxiety ,business owner which I'm constantly worrying about my daily operations and then stressing about getting hard which leads to not getting hard.I'm in good shape so my problem is all mental related. I'm 66 now in excellent condition ,what changed me is when my wife and have time for sex we smoke a energetic grade of cannabis joint which I focus on what's to come in our sex activities plus my mind relaxes from anxiety, daily stress issues. My with is beautiful and in incredible shape so because I was not performing I was scared she would wonder and get satisfied elsewhere. So since we do the cannabis route is been awesome the last 10 years.Again mental his a huge part of ED.Thanks Again
