(Daily Mail) A vegan diet could improve the sex lives of men and treat their erectile dysfunction, a study suggests.
A team from New York University Grossman School of Medicine and the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health looked at 3,500 men with prostate cancer for their research.
Some common side effects of prostate cancer treatment include erectile dysfunction and urinary incontinence.
But the new research indicates that a diet which limits meat and dairy but is rich in fruits, vegetables, grains and nuts is linked to improved symptoms.
The team found that a plant-based diet improved the men’s sex lives by up to 11 per cent – and the researchers said the results could be applicable to men on other medications that sap libido and cause erectile dysfunction, such as antidepressants.
