By the time you’ve finished reading this entire article, you’ll know how to achieve that difficult rock hard erection you used to take for granted when you were younger. As you get older, you will find that maintaining a hard erection becomes more difficult. And if you’re over 40, you might even find it hard to get up in the first place.

This is not your fault. ED, or erectile dysfunction, affects more than 40 million men worldwide, and as baby boomers age, it’s becoming a bigger problem. We feel your pain. Not having a hard erection when you need it is a terrible thing. It’s bad for your morality, it’s not good for your self-esteem.

If you want to get that hard boner back, you should read this article from this point to the end. Because? Because we’re going to reveal three critical things you can do to get your penis hard without risking your life or breaking the bank.

Here are 3 ED busters that can help you get a harder erection

1) Get rid of your unhealthy lifestyle

Most men go down the slippery road to erectile dysfunction hell because they simply don’t ignore their health. They eat all kinds of junk food and smoke like there is no tomorrow. You must realize that your penis is a very important and sensitive part of your body and health. You need all the good nutrients your body can give you and if you don’t get any of these, you go soft.

This is because bad foods that are high in cholesterol clog arteries and slow blood flow. When this happens, less and less blood is pumped into the penile chambers, meaning the penis can’t get as hard as it used to. The same goes for the “cancer stick”. Nicotine damages blood vessels and can interfere with healthy blood circulation. This is a “no no” for your erectile strength.

So remember to quit smoking and cut fat and cholesterol-rich foods from your diet. This is not only good for your erections, it is also good for your overall health.

2) Get rid of bad medicines

It is a sad fact of life that in our modern society, we are increasingly dependent on prescription drugs to help us with all kinds of ailments. We are becoming drug addicts without knowing it. To make matters worse, some of these prescription drugs can cause erectile dysfunction. For example, some drugs to treat high cholesterol levels have negative side effects, including erection problems in men.

So if you are taking any type of prescription medication, be sure to check with your doctor about any side effects. If there are, ask for another brand that doesn’t cause erectile dysfunction.

3) More Cardiovascular Exercises

By now, you probably know that the health of your penis is closely related to your overall health and fitness. In fact, your penis is a major early indicator of any impending disease in your system. This is because it is sensitive to blood flow and circulation, which are crucial for good health.

According to Dr. Steven Lamm, author of the book “The Tough Factor,” a man’s level of health and fitness is crucial to his erectile fitness. Dr. Lamm recommends that daily cardio (any exercise that gets your heart pumping faster) is essential for a hard penis.

These exercises improve blood circulation and encourage the body to produce more nitric oxide, the chemical used as a signal to tell blood vessels to loosen up and allow more blood to be trapped in the penis for a harder erection. You should strive to reach your ideal body weight and reduce that fat belly.
