Some things to try to help with your ED


Fish oil supplements are sooo good for the brain. When my ex partner used to take them he always said he felt better psychologically. (And he was much less b***chy) I take them when I remember - LOL. Get a good brand of fish oil: sardines, herring and krill are best. The smaller the fish, the less mercury in the supplement. Some supplements are distilled to remove mercury. Read labels. And if you keep the capsules in the freezer, there is no fishy aftertaste at all. Omega 3's are recommended for any brain problems, and they're also recommended to little kids whose brains are growing. My grandkids take fish oil supplements. And B vitamins are good for the nerves, especially B6. It's best to take a B complex with all 10 B vitamins - they work synergistically. A good multi from a health food store can help a lot. The drug store brands don't have therapeutic levels of the vitamins, just the RDA, which is miniscule.

They are not a substitute for protein which is absolutely essential to have in your diet. If you don't eat enough protein, your muscles are broken down by your body for food. Not good.


You say you have some protein powder from the health food/body building store? I used to drink a smoothie with whey protein, milk, and greens every morning. I used green with berries added to prevent the yuck factor of greens. Some people like the taste though. The greens powder adds 4 -5 servings of veggies/fruit, depending on the brand. I also added some ground flaxseed or 1 T. of flax oil. I drank the smoothie about 8:00 am and I wasn't hungry until 2 - 3:00. That was really helpful when I had my store because I didn't take lunch break until 2:00. I need to start again. You can just shake it up in a shaker cup - I had one from Tupperware. Or you could add berries or other fruit and use a blender. I keep frozen berries in the fridge and you could just pop them in. MMM good. They have all kinds of protein powders - I used whey isolate made from New Zealand milk (which means they took out the fat and chloresterol). There's also vegan protein powders made from legumes and other green foods, and rice or soy, which is also vegan. Rice is not a complete protein so you need to add milk to it. The vegan and soy are complete proteins. If you're vegan, add almond, soy, or rice milk to the protein powder instead of cow's milk.


I did the protein powder thing to stay full to 2:00, and to save time in the morning - I always ran late. And for the convenience factor. It's so quick and easy, and tastes good.


Hope this helps - you need to eat to be healthy mentally and physically.
