It's not necessarily the illness that renders them ill equipped in the bedroom; it's the treatment. It's well known that the vast majority of drugs prescribed for blood pressure cause impotence. Many men refuse to take blood-pressure medication out of a fear of becoming impotent. They would rather risk a heart attack or stroke than lose their ability to achieve an erection.

The solution is to get your blood pressure down and get off the medication. The best way to do that is by going vegetarian or vegan. Multiple studies confirm that the incidence of high blood pressure in meat-eaters compared to that in vegetarians is nearly triple and the incidence of very high blood pressure in meat-eaters compared to that in vegetarians is 13 times higher! The rate of substantial improvement in patients with high blood pressure by switching to a vegetarian diet is an astounding 30 to 75 percent. The number of patients with high blood pressure who are able to completely discontinue the use of medications after adopting a low-sodium, low-fat, high-fiber vegetarian diet is 58 percent.
