The cool thing about research is that you can basically discover anything that you want to based on how you present the data. So many scientific reports are funded by the people who want to see the results swayed in their direction. I hate to say it, but this article is about one of them.
A new scientific study published by MDPI (which btw stands for Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute and just sounds like a fraudulent place to publish science) is claiming that men who eat mixed nuts are less likely to suffer from erectile dysfunction. Aptly titled, “Effect of Nut Consumption on Erectile and Sexual Function in Healthy Males: A Secondary Outcome Analysis of the FERTINUTS Randomized Controlled Trial,” the people at the Fertinuts study presented their data in a completely unbiased fashion. Completely unbiased. They swear. Even though they named their group Fertinuts, they are definitely not biased as to whether or not nuts make you fertile at all. Pinky promise.
The study was run on a controlled group of 100 young, healthy men in Spain. During the trial, the guys were told to eat 60 grams of mixed raw nuts a day for 14 weeks in addition to their regular diets. They had their blood tested for nitric oxide and E-selectin and then the scientists used those levels to figure out the health of the blood vessels in their dicks.
I can’t believe for a second that chomping down on mixed nuts is something that will help your dick stay hard. Also, I used to manage a drug store in my early 20s and I sold a whole lot of mixed nuts. You know who mostly bought mixed nuts? Senior citizens did. I think that if there was some kind of correlation between male vitality and mixed nuts, Viagra sales would never have skyrocketed the way that they did.
Don’t get me wrong, I buy a tub of mixed nuts during the holidays every year and put them out for my guests to munch on. I know that it’s not just the older generations that are supporting the mixed nuts market. All I’m saying is that, when I was working in retail and those nuts went on sale, it was the older folks who were snatching them up by the case.
I don’t know that they’ll ever come up with a sure fire way to naturally increase sexual desire and fertility. The experiments they are doing are sometimes grasping at straws. Eating a healthy diet and participating in moderate exercise seems to be the way to go, in my opinion. I’m no scientist though.
