Erectile dysfunction (ED) is a common condition that can affect men of all ages, impacting their confidence and quality of life. While there are many treatments available, some individuals seek natural remedies to help manage this condition. Apple cider vinegar (ACV) is a popular natural remedy believed to offer various health benefits, including potential support for erectile dysfunction. This article explores how ACV may help with ED and provides guidance on its use.

Potential Benefits of Apple Cider Vinegar for ED

Apple cider vinegar is known for its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and blood sugar-regulating properties, which may contribute to its potential benefits for erectile dysfunction:

Improved Blood Circulation: Good blood circulation is crucial for achieving and maintaining an erection. ACV may help improve cardiovascular health by promoting better blood flow, which is essential for erectile function.

Blood Sugar Control: High blood sugar levels can damage blood vessels and nerves, potentially leading to erectile dysfunction. ACV may help regulate blood sugar levels, reducing the risk of complications that can contribute to ED.

Weight Management: Obesity is a risk factor for erectile dysfunction. ACV is sometimes used as a weight management aid, helping to reduce body weight and improve overall health.

How to Use Apple Cider Vinegar for ED

To potentially benefit from ACV for erectile dysfunction, consider the following methods:

  • Oral Consumption: Dilute 1-2 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar in a glass of water and drink it once or twice a day. It is best to start with a smaller amount and gradually increase the dose to assess your tolerance.
  • Topical Application (Caution Advised): While some suggest applying diluted ACV topically, it is important to exercise caution as ACV can cause skin irritation. Always perform a patch test and consult a healthcare provider before trying this method.

Precautions and Considerations

While ACV is generally safe for most people, there are some precautions to consider:

  • Digestive Sensitivity: ACV can cause digestive discomfort or irritation in some individuals. If you experience symptoms such as stomach upset, reduce the dosage or discontinue use.
  • Tooth Enamel Erosion: The acidity of ACV can erode tooth enamel. To minimize this risk, drink ACV diluted with water, use a straw, and rinse your mouth with water afterward.
  • Interactions with Medications: ACV may interact with certain medications, including diuretics and insulin. Consult with a healthcare provider before starting any new treatment, especially if you are taking other medications or have pre-existing health conditions.

Conclusion

Apple cider vinegar may offer potential benefits for managing erectile dysfunction, particularly through its effects on blood circulation, blood sugar control, and weight management. However, it is important to use ACV cautiously and consult with a healthcare provider to ensure it is safe and appropriate for your individual health needs.

Very interesting comment, however I have questions since I am a young 80 yr old.
Where does ACV come into usage?

sea salt 1/4 tablet or 1 tablet?

product L-Carnitine is that the total name or is

L-CartineL-Tartrate the real name?

still don't know where: cayenne pepper (dosage) comes in

Vit B3 Niacin flush type or B3 Niacinamide no flush!

magnesium ionic (liquid) 1/2 cap full (cap is from magnesium container?

take sea salt capsule with water or is everything mixed, blended together?

at the end you have more writing regarding other names Prog E1 or whatever, however spelled, does that come into play with ED? Whew…. Can you send me a simple formula?

Will appreciate. Thank you. How often do you use this daily or will it last for sometime?

please as specific as you can.

Joe,

ACV has helped people with ED, just as a side effect of getting healthier, improving blood flow through arteries.

Sea kelp, not sea salt, one tablet a day for iodine, supports the reproductive system.

Yes. L Carnitine L Tartrate, but wait on this, you should see improvements just from the mag and the GLA.

Cayenne pepper very simply improves circulation, you can see how used in tandem with ACV it will be of benefit

B3 niacin flush, you want to open arteries, capillaries, get the blood flowing, start low, you'll feel this one, slowly build up.

Dr. Carolyn Dean recommends 1000mg mag for healthy young men. Sick and older use more, research, and find your own dose, keeping in mind Magnesium and Linolenic Acid. Makes pge1, a natural hormone that is a vein dilator. They make this synthetically for Erectile Dysfunction and charge good money, it's called Alprostadil.

Best sources Linolenic Acid, flaxseeds and oil, walnuts and oil, pumpkin seeds and oil, borage oil, and evening primrose oil.

Hope that helps.

Hey Rod, I just read your comment and another one from some person in Australia that used a combinations of things that don't make sense to me or how to use. Did you also view that with magnesium, sea salt, L-Carnitine, cayenne pepper, Vit B3 Ala, dosage? I just asked for some clarification, if I get it I will send it to you. Joe

Rod, it could take four weeks before you start to see benefits, take into account your health before this, you're likely trying to unclog decades of arterial plaque.. take the 1/2 tsp cayenne together with the shot of Apple Cider Vinegar twice a day, mag daily should be 1000mg, have you added the ALA in the form of flax or walnut oil? How much niacin are you up to daily? And have you noticed any differences in your health yet?

Yesterday I took 3 tsp organic Apple Cider Vinegar with 1/2 glass of water, later in morning I was able to acheive orgasm twice with a 15 min gap, never happened that before, I am newly married, recently I was having pain in the foot, found out that Apple Cider Vinegar treats gout, so tried it last night. I think Apple Cider Vinegar really helped the erection.

Over the last four months, my husband's libido has been decreasing. Maybe not his desire, but certainly his ability to maintain an erection. He was feeling really low and said he didnt feel like a man. I remembered reading many 'Yea' responses on the ACV page regarding the success of this remedy. I have been experimenting with ACV for myself and my dogs (weight loss, allergies, etc... ) and I wanted my husband to try it for his problem. He took a dose of it one night and the next morning, he was very proud of himself that things were 'looking up'. The ACV literally performed a miracle with just one dose. He now takes it daily (and I dont have to deliver it to him any more) and there have been no problems in that department anymore! I also think it has really helped with his allergies AND he's dropped a few lbs without any effort on his part.

EC - Can you please post this under Erectile Dysfunction? Someone had asked about whether ACV works and there are no responses on that particular ailment's page.
