Smoking not only affects your health, speaking of lungs and other things, but it's also bad for your sperm's health. Smoking is one of the main reasons for male infecundity. It subdues hard and firm erections because it restricts blood flow to the penis. And that's not all - nicotine damages the penis's valve mechanism that has to store blood in the erectile tissue and when this mechanism is damaged, most men become impotents. But smoking doesn't stop there, scientists believe it destroys the DNA structure and also damages the genetic material.

Such health impairments like diabetes, hypertension and high cholesterol are also common reasons for erectile dysfunction.

Different researches have shown a direct interconnection between a healthy blood flow and a proper sexual life. While exercise, diet and proper applications efficiently promote male sexual performance by maintaining and improving their libido, sperm production, liveliness and sexual activity level, they don't ensure good results for individuals that smoke and drink much every day. What to say about men who use such recreational drugs like heroine, cocaine and ecstasy that even more interfere with their stamina or blood flow.

Decay in the erections intensity indicates a risk, which some forms of erectile dysfunctions can develop in short time. The research has also displayed that abstaining from smoking for at least 24 hours has resulted in sufficient increase in the spontaneous erections' quality. Also, smoking has other side effects like lung cancer and high blood pressure.

Another research made by the Department of Psychiatry from the University Medical School of Lubeck, Germany, showed that alcoholics experience impotence much often than people that drink occasionally. Alcohol tends to cause a pleasant relaxation state and is usually believed to have a good influence on libido.

But it's a big delusion. Alcohol I a suppressant and has great negative influence on the men's libido. Also, it reduces the capability to achieve and keep a good erection. So, if you don't want your sexual health to experience severe problems, you should quit drinking alcohol and smoking, if you do these things.

Also, if you want to increase you libido and sexual performance, there are some supplements that can boost male libido. These herbal supplements get more and more popular among men.
