The latest statistics on adult obesity\nin the United States show that more than 90 million are obese. That&#8217;s almost\n40% of the adult American population.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The\nproblem with obesity is that it ruins so many things for you. Your overall\nhealth, your self-esteem, and confidence, as well as your sexual health all\nsuffer when you&#8217;re struggling with such burdensome weight issues. If you think\nyour sex life is doing fine even if you&#8217;re obese, continue reading to learn\nmore about how obesity can actually destroy your sexual function.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"background-color:#4b0001;font-size:27px\" class=\"has-text-color has-background has-white-color\"><strong>Obesity\nand Your Testosterone Levels<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If\nyou&#8217;ve noticed that your testosterone levels became lower the more you gained\nweight, that&#8217;s actually because your androgen levels do decrease when you&#8217;re\noverweight, especially when you have excess visceral fat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Several\nstudies have already established that obesity is closely associated with\nabnormally low testosterone levels, and that also contributes to the decline of\nyour erectile function. On top of that, when your total serum and free\ntestosterone levels are low, that usually results in low libido, which also\nnegatively affects your sex life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The\nmore excess visceral fat you have, the higher the activity of aromatase. Within\nyour fat tissues, testosterone is being metabolized into estrogen through the\nactions of aromatase. Hence, the more fat you have, the more you secrete\naromatase, and the more your androgen becomes converted into estrogen and other\nmetabolites. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To\naddress the problem of having low testosterone levels, you can try to lose some\nof your belly fat. Not only will that lower your aromatase secretion and improve\nyour testosterone levels, but it will also help lower your risks of other\nobesity-related diseases and improve your physique as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"banner vm-80\">\n    <div class=\"row\">\n        <div class=\"col-md-12 text-center\">\n            <figure><figure><img src=\"\/images\/banner_award.png\" class=\"img-responsive center-block banner_award\" alt=\"Money Back Guaranteed Male Enhancement Pills - Male UltraCore 2019 Award\"><\/figure><\/figure>\n        <\/div>\n        <div class=\"col-md-6\"><figure><figure><img src=\"\/images\/21c-box.png\" class=\"img-responsive center-block\" alt=\"Not Sold At GNC Male UltraCore Box and Bottle\"><\/figure><\/figure><\/div>\n        <div>\n            <ul>\n                <li>100% Money Back<\/li>\n                <li>Free Rushed Shipping<\/li>\n                <li>Change Your Sex Life<\/li>\n            <\/ul>\n\n            <div class=\"text-center\">\n                <a href=\"\/order\" class=\"btn btn-order-now\">ORDER NOW<\/a>\n            <\/div>\n            <figure><figure><img src=\"\/images\/secure-logos2.png\" class=\"img-responsive center-block secure_logos\" alt=\"Not Sold At GNC Male UltraCore Secure Site Logos\"><\/figure><\/figure>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"background-color:#4b0001;font-size:27px\" class=\"has-text-color has-background has-white-color\"><strong>Obesity\nand Erectile Dysfunction<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignleft is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.maleultracore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/How-Obesity-Can-Ruin-Your-Sexual-Function-2-200x300.jpg\" alt=\"fat man with erectile issues\" class=\"wp-image-2255\" width=\"210\" height=\"316\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.maleultracore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/How-Obesity-Can-Ruin-Your-Sexual-Function-2-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.maleultracore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/How-Obesity-Can-Ruin-Your-Sexual-Function-2-600x900.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.maleultracore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/How-Obesity-Can-Ruin-Your-Sexual-Function-2.jpg 667w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 210px) 100vw, 210px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Although\nobesity by itself does not automatically make you impotent, it does increase\nyour risks of numerous diseases that greatly increase your chances of\ndeveloping erectile dysfunction. Diabetes and cardiovascular diseases, for\nexample, are highly prevalent among those who are either overweight or obese.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There&#8217;s\nalso obesity-related hypogonadism to worry about. Since your testosterone\nlevels generally tend to drop when you&#8217;re obese, you are also at risk of\ndeveloping hypogonadism.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This\nmeans that both your fertility and sexual function will be affected since you\nreally need testosterone for both to be at normal levels. Not only that, but\nwhen you have obesity-related hypogonadism, your risks of developing\ncardiovascular diseases, metabolic syndrome, diabetes, and erectile dysfunction\ngreatly increase.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As\nstudies have shown, obese men who lost weight either by following a strict diet\nor through supervised exercise tend to experience great improvements in their\nerectile function, following a huge increase in their testosterone levels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This\nmeans that if you haven&#8217;t developed diabetic neuropathy or atherosclerosis yet\nbecause of your weight problem, there&#8217;s a good chance that you may be able to\nrestore normal testosterone levels and erectile function by losing weight. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Of\ncourse, even if you lose weight, you can&#8217;t really expect your erectile function\nto be restored immediately, which is why it would be a good idea to try\nalternative natural means of improving your erectile function.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:27px\" class=\"has-background has-secondary-background-color\"><strong>Natural\nErection Boosters<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For\nmen who are struggling with seemingly insurmountable weight issues, fenugreek\nis an excellent natural supplement. For one, fenugreek is associated with\nincreased weight loss. That&#8217;s because the herb is full of dietary fiber, and it\ncan help reduce your appetite, increase your metabolism of fats, as well as\nlower your cholesterol levels. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On\ntop of helping you manage your weight, fenugreek also helps prevent diabetes,\nwhich is a disease that is very much common among overweight people. By\nincreasing your sensitivity to insulin, fenugreek helps your cells absorb\nglucose from your blood more efficiently, thus leading to controlled blood\nsugar levels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Perhaps\nthe best benefit you can gain from taking fenugreek supplements is that it\nhelps inhibit the activities of aromatase. As most men may already know,\naromatase is the enzyme that makes estrogen out of your testosterone. If your\naromatase activities are high, you may end up having too much estrogen and too\nlittle testosterone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignright is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.maleultracore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/How-Obesity-Can-Ruin-Your-Sexual-Function-1-300x186.jpg\" alt=\"fenugreek seeds\" class=\"wp-image-2254\" width=\"327\" height=\"203\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.maleultracore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/How-Obesity-Can-Ruin-Your-Sexual-Function-1-300x186.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.maleultracore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/How-Obesity-Can-Ruin-Your-Sexual-Function-1-600x372.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.maleultracore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/How-Obesity-Can-Ruin-Your-Sexual-Function-1-768x476.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.maleultracore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/How-Obesity-Can-Ruin-Your-Sexual-Function-1.jpg 1000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 327px) 100vw, 327px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>By\ninhibiting aromatase, fenugreek helps ensure that your free testosterone is\nleft available for you to use and not converted to estrogen. This also means\nthat your sex drive may also increase as your free testosterone levels rise. Of\ncourse, the higher your testosterone levels are, the better your erectile\nfunction will be.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However,\nfenugreek is not the only herb that can help obese men regain their lost libido\nand erectile function. There are actually several herbs that not only help\nincrease your testosterone levels but also improve your erectile function and\nprotect you from various diseases that are typically associated with obesity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tribulus\nterrestris, for instance, is known to be beneficial for those with diabetes.\nHorny Goat Weed, on the one hand, is good for protecting you against\natherosclerosis and cardiovascular diseases. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tongkat\nAli also benefits diabetic people because it can help lower your cortisol\nlevels when you&#8217;re stressed. Cortisol actually makes your blood sugar go up, so\nby reducing your cortisol levels, Tongkat Ali helps you manage your blood sugar\nlevels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Of\ncourse, these are not the only benefits you can gain from taking supplements\nthat contain Tongkat Ali, Tribulus terrestris, and Horny Goat Weed. These three\nawesome herbs are actually well known for their sexual health benefits. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Not\nonly do these three impressive herbs raise your testosterone levels, but they\nalso improve your erectile function. Horny Goat Weed inhibits PDE5, while\nTribulus terrestris helps with your nitric oxide production and Tongkat Ali\nhelps you maintain your erection by preventing penile detumescence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On\ntop of their erection-boosting effects, Tongkat Ali, Horny Goat Weed, and\nTribulus terrestris also help improve your semen parameters. Your fertility is\nactually affected when you&#8217;re overweight or obese, so it&#8217;s a good idea to take\nnatural supplements that can boost your sperm count and improve your sperm\nquality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.maleultracore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/male-ultracore-is-a-super-testosterone-supplement-for-sexual-pleasure-1024x315.jpg\" alt=\"Male UltraCore is a Super Male Enhancement Supplement for Sexual Pleasure\" class=\"wp-image-1741\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.maleultracore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/male-ultracore-is-a-super-testosterone-supplement-for-sexual-pleasure-1024x315.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.maleultracore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/male-ultracore-is-a-super-testosterone-supplement-for-sexual-pleasure-600x184.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.maleultracore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/male-ultracore-is-a-super-testosterone-supplement-for-sexual-pleasure-300x92.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.maleultracore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/male-ultracore-is-a-super-testosterone-supplement-for-sexual-pleasure-768x236.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.maleultracore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/male-ultracore-is-a-super-testosterone-supplement-for-sexual-pleasure.jpg 1100w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"text-center\">\n                <a href=\"https:\/\/www.maleultracore.com\" class=\"btn btn-order-now\">LEARN MORE<\/a>\n            <\/div>\n\n<div style=\"font-size: 0px; height: 0px; line-height: 0px; margin: 0; padding: 0; clear: both;\"><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) warns us that 20% of school-aged&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":2253,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[1],"tags":[],"amp_validity":null,"amp_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.maleultracore.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2275"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.maleultracore.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.maleultracore.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.maleultracore.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.maleultracore.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2275"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/www.maleultracore.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2275\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":7393,"href":"https:\/\/www.maleultracore.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2275\/revisions\/7393"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.maleultracore.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2253"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.maleultracore.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2275"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.maleultracore.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2275"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.maleultracore.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2275"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
