Arteriosclerosis Disease

Causes of organic ED include diseases that compromise vascular flow to the corpora cavernosum (e.g., peripheral vascular disease, arteriosclerosis, essential hypertension), impair nerve conduction to the brain (e.g., spinal cord injury, stroke), and are associated with hypogonadism (e.g., prostate or testicular cancer, hypothalamic or pituitary disorders).

The effects of chronic hypertension on the human organism are, with one exception, of little interest to the investigator studying pathogenesis, although of great import to the sufferer and his physician. That exception is failure of the kidneys. Disease and failure of the heart are probably caused by chronic overstrain, often associated with another metabolic disease, arteriosclerosis of the coronary arteries. They account for about two thirds of the deaths primarily due to hypertension. Strokes of apoplexy, or cerebral vascular accidents, from rupture or thrombosis of a cerebral artery weakened by disease cause another sixth, uremia about one twelfth, and other conditions the remainder (28). Except for uremia, these events are usually the result of overwork and increased arterial tension. Only rarely does the heart escape hypertrophy.

The penis has two corpora cavernosa, which have many interconnected sinuses that fiU with blood to produce an erection. The penis also has one corpus spongiosum, which surrounds the urethra and forms the glans penis. Acetylcholine works with other neurotransmitters (i.e., cyclic guanylate monophosphate, cyclic adenosine monophosphate, vasoactive intestinal polypeptide) to produce penile arterial vasodilation and ultimately an erection. Causes of organic ED include diseases that compromise vascular flow to the corpora cavernosum (e.g., peripheral vascular disease, arteriosclerosis, essential hypertension), impair nerve conduction to the brain (e.g., spinal cord injury, stroke), and are associated with hypogonadism (e.g., prostate or testicular cancer, hypothalamic or pituitary disorders). 

Cholesterol itself is the principal constituent of gallstones and can be readily isolated from them (see Chapter 22). The average person contains about 200 g of cholesterol, primarily in brain and nerve tissue. The closing of arteries by cholesterol leads to the disease arteriosclerosis (hardening of the arteries).

Dried organisms consist of 32-60% water soluble carbohydrates and 4 12% fiber, and when decomposing sticky viscous substances, they produce glucose and fructose. Moreover, they have lot of dietary fiber to lower blood cholesterol that they are effective in preventing hypertension, heart disease, arteriosclerosis, and iodine that improves metabolism— the smooth vascular and cardiac action, the body temperature and perspiration regulation. 

Redox chemistry and ageing recent findings on the role of Mn(II) in free radical dismutation or disproportionation, with related consequences for cell damage vs. protection, seem to indicate potential connections with various disease states of the nervous and circulatory systems. These include Alzheimer s disease, arteriosclerosis, plus the connection between diabetes and damage to the motor and central nervous systems.
