Erectile Dysfunction: How Stress, Toxins, & Nerves Affect Performance With Dr. Jordan Barber
Show notes
Could erectile dysfunction be a warning sign from your body rather than just a performance issue? Today I'm hosting Dr. Jordan Barber to uncover how sexual health is connected to pelvic floor dysfunction, nerve compression, trauma, toxins, hormones, and lifestyle choices.
Dr. Barber shares how his background in Chinese medicine and acupuncture has shaped his approach to identifying the root causes of ED rather than masking symptoms with quick fixes. We also discuss testosterone, circadian rhythms, vagus nerve health, and porn's impact on dopamine signaling.
He also offers practical strategies men can use to support better sexual function and longevity. Tune in for the bigger picture behind erectile dysfunction and a more holistic approach to improving vitality.
"If a man has performance anxiety, he's going to be stuck in a sympathetic state, which will not allow him to maintain or have a firm erection." ~ Dr. Jordan Barber
