Peyronie’s Disease

Overview

It may be thought to be fairly common (affecting one in 100 men), but few people have heard of Peyronie’s disease.

It usually appears in middle age but younger and older men can also develop it. In Peyronie’s, a plaque, or hard lump, forms on the upper or lower side of the penis in the layers containing erectile tissue. It begins as a localised inflammation and can develop into a hardened scar. It isn’t isn’t cancerous.

Symptoms

Usually the plaque which forms does so on the top of the shaft, making the penis bend upward. But if the plaque is on the underside, it will bend downward. In some cases, the plaque develops on both top and bottom, leading to indentation and shortening of the penis.

In the worst cases, the hardened plaque reduces flexibility and causes so much pain, bending and emotional distress that sex becomes impossible for the sufferer.

Causes

The cause of Peyronie’s disease still isn’t certain, but there is a link to fibrosis or scarring of other tissues in the body such as a condition known as Dupuytren’s contracture of the hand. There’s also a mild family tendency to the disease.

Many researchers now think the plaque or lump in Peyronie’s disease develops following trauma, such as hitting or bending that causes localised bleeding inside the penis. This leads to injury of the elastic lining of chambers inside the penis.

Ageing increases the risk as a general reduction in elasticity of the body’s tissues increases the chances of injury. If the damaged area heals slowly, the plaque undergoes fibrosis, or formation of tough fibrous tissue, and even calcification (formation of calcium deposits) resulting in a long-term problem.

However, this particular theory does not explain the cases which develop slowly, or why similar conditions such as Dupuytren’s contracture don’t seem to result from severe trauma.

Diet

Following good, general nutritional advice may be the best option where Peyronie’s disease is concerned. Try to eat as much fresh, unrefined, and unprocessed food as you can.

The Peyronie’s penis plaque begins as a localized inflammation and develops into a hardened scar. Try anti-inflammatory food and drinks like wild-caught salmon, turmeric, shitake mushrooms and green tea.

It is important to not add further toxicity to your system so try to adhere to the following:

Do not consume any artificial sweeteners, such as Splenda, NutraSweet or Aspartame

Do not consume high fructose corn syrup or mono-sodium glutamate.

Do not drink any carbonated beverages.

Avoid all fast food restaurants.

Avoid all canned food.

Eliminate conventional dairy products. The best dairy products are raw, unpasteurised and homogenised dairy from grass fed cows. If this is unavailable, then buy organic dairy.

Avoid conventional beef. The best beef is organic grass fed beef. www.grasslandbeef.com/StoreFront.bok?affld=104400 The second best is organic meat; this includes beef, veal, lamb, chicken and turkey.

Supplements:

Vitamin E supplementation has been studied for decades, and some success has been reported in older trials, but those successes have not been reliably repeated in larger, newer studies.

Take Vitamin D3 50,000-100,000 International Units a day for periods of 4 weeks at a time.
Wholefood supplements are the best way of ensuring your nutritional needs are met. The best we know on the market is Kevin Trudeau’s “KT Daily” product. You can find more details here kevintrudeaudailylifesessentials.com/
