If you don’t smoke you have better sexual health and performance, according to a new study!
Quitters saw a greater increase in penile growth, measured by width and not length, compared to non-quitters. By their own scoring, those men also reached their peak level of arousal sooner than men who were still lighting up.
While smoking has been linked to a host of other health problems such as cancer and heart disease, the researchers said their finding is a new angle for doctors to use with men who are still reluctant to try quitting.
Previous research has shown that long-term smokers are up to twice as likely to have impotence as non-smokers. Smoking can show blood vessel dilation, which is necessary to get an erection, said Lydia Bazzano, who has studied erectile dysfunction at the Tulane University Health Sciences Center.
So interesting!
When it comes down to it, it’s ridiculous to think that someone is waiting to hear that smoking has an effect on their junk to make them quit when the shizz obviously is KILLING THEM.
But hey, this just adds another thing to the list of reasons not to smoke. It’s pretty stacked considering that the list FOR smoking has nothing on it.
Wise up, people!
