Nitric oxide is good for erections. Some foods support the production of nitric acid within the body.
Increasing nitric acid (NO) production in your body can be achieved by exercise, supplements, and diet.
Specific foods to target are fresh vegetables and fruits, legumes, whole grains, and nuts. According to Dr. John Cooke, head of Stanford Medical School’s vascular unit, the goal is to consume nutrient-dense foods high in antioxidants, including vitamins B, folate, C, and E. These foods have properties that improve NO levels, and thus, your vascular health.
