Adding just one milligram of Viagra to a vase of flowers can keep them fresher for longer. A few shavings of Viagra will keep your flowers alive for up to a week, so with just one tablet of Viagra you could have a fresh bunch of flowers for almost every week of the year. MyOnlineDoctor confirms Viagra helps to keep flowers alive for longer as it contains nitric oxide, an important source of nutrition for plants. In men Viagra improves turgidity by relaxing blood vessels and increasing the flow of blood to the penis. Viagra is an expensive product requiring a doctor’s prescription and the same effect can be achieved by using soluble aspirin. If you’re using aspirin you will need a whole tablet – just dissolve it fully in the water before putting the flowers in. A spokesperson from the British Medical Association confirms that Viagra is capable of increasing shelf life.
Erections are complex and require a number of organic processes involving the nervous and cardiovascular systems. This means that ED could be caused by a problem in any of these bodily systems, and could be a sign of a serious illness such high cholesterol, heart disease, high blood pressure and diabetes. Due to the correlation between erectile dysfunction and other health problems it is highly recommended that all ED sufferers receive a full health check every year to ensure that erectile problems are not caused by an associated illness.
Awareness of illnesses associated with the symptoms of erectile dysfunction is extremely important given the risks of ignoring the signs, and so, it is important that doctors work with well known pharmaceutical companies in improving how information about these medical problems is distributed. One of the better known campaigns highlighting the incidence of ED amongst men is the 40over40 awareness campaign run by Eli Lilly and co.. The 40over40 campaign is subtly advertised on television and suggests that an average of 40% of men over 40 suffer from ED to some varying degree. The advertisement invites men to visit the Lilly Icos website for further information and to consult their doctor if they have noticed erectile disturbances.
This campaign only goes some way to address the problem and should encourage more men to visit their GP for tests. Surveys suggest that many men are unaware ED may be an outward sign of an underlying problem, and are inclined to ignore the signs in the hope they will go away by themselves. In fact men are bad at going to the doctor and will leave many aliments untreated for as long as possible, even if the effects on their health and personal life are profound leaving them at risk of heart attack, diabetes or stroke. More must be done to raise awareness amongst men and tackle misconceptions surrounding ED.
