Medicinal Mushrooms for Sex Drive
Many people may have never considered medicinal mushrooms for sex drive, but it is become more and more common. While the topic may be a bit sensitive to some, intimacy is a very important activity for health and wellness. Your body releases powerful immune supportive chemicals before, during and after sexual activity including Oxitosin. Intimacy is really very healthy. A strong libido (sex drive) is a sign of proper balance in body chemistry. If chemical imbalances occur, they often can affect libido and some RX medications don’t help.
Cause of Low Sex Drive
A low sex drive may be related to circulation and blood pressure. (psychological issues are more complex). Heart disease and atherosclerosis which is the hardening of arterial walls can lower sex drive. High cholesterol and high blood pressure can all impact the amount of blood flowing to the genital region. Diabetes contributes to ED by damaging nerves and blood vessels limiting blood flow.
Cholesterol: Why You Need It
Cholesterol is essential for making many critical hormones, including the stress hormone cortisol. It assists with adrenal gland function. Cholesterol is also used to make the sex hormones testosterone, progesterone, and estrogen which is why it controls sex drive. The liver also uses cholesterol to make bile, a fluid that plays a vital role in the processing and digestion of fats. Medical study links found on our website.
Cholesterol serves three main purposes: 1. It aids in the production of sex hormones. 2. It is a building block for human tissues. 3. It assists in bile production in the liver. Additionally, your brain requires Cholesterol to function. Its main function is to maintain the integrity and fluidity of cell membranes and serves as a precursor for the synthesis of vital substances including hormones, bile acids, and vitamin D.
There are 3 TYPES of Cholesterol. HDL, Non-HDL, and LDL. A balanced HDL level is approximately 40. Non-HDL level should be less than 130, and LDL level should be less than 100. Average total cholesterol levels in adults is 120 to 200, while 200 is on the high side for some, this can be normal if it doesn’t fluctuate.
The Significance of High Cholesterol
If your Cholesterol is high, it is a sign that you need to adjust your diet to help lower the levels naturally. Diet is the leading cause of high Cholesterol. If your Cholesterol is 199 (near the high limit) you may be prescribed a statin drug from your doctor. Statin’s will artificially change your chemistry to try and lower cholesterol & this affects “many” other chemical balances. If you choose this route, be aware of the following facts: Some people’s levels run higher that others 175 to 200. If you do not see your level rising over time this may be normal. Prescriptions are not 100% natural and can cause side effects.
Medications For High Cholesterol
Prescription medications can lower sex drive. Many medications including statins will affect other chemical symphonies in the body. Speak with your doctor about the primary side effects of the RX drugs they suggest for your condition. Many RX’s will list the potential side effects, like low sex drive, feeling lethargic, brain fog, swelling, stomach issues and suppressing your Immune System.

Less red meat, cheese and dairy often is all that is required to make a useful change to the body.
