Meat Causes Erectile Dysfunction: How and Why | Dr. Neal Barnard

Is meat really masculine or could it be causing erectile dysfunction?

Dr. Neal Barnard joins Chuck Carroll to examine the connection between meat, blood flow, heart health, testosterone, muscle, fertility, prostate health, and ED.

Dr. Barnard explains why erectile dysfunction may sometimes appear before more obvious signs of cardiovascular disease. He also discusses whether meat actually improves testosterone or muscle growth, how a high-fat meal may affect athletic performance, and why strong muscles on the outside do not always mean healthy arteries on the inside.

You'll also learn:

• How quickly circulation may begin to improve after changing your diet
• Why plant foods can provide the protein needed to build muscle
• The possible connection between dairy, fertility, and prostate health
• What a practical day of eating for men's health could look like
• Why tomatoes, beans, whole grains, and other plant foods deserve a place on the menu

Plus, Chuck and Dr. Barnard preview the International Conference on Nutrition in Medicine, happening August 13–15 in Washington, D.C.
