Many men mistakenly think that a few drinks can heighten their bedroom prowess, but make no mistake: a drunk manhood is not a happy manhood. In the short run, too much alcohol may impact a man's performance; and in the long run, it can play havoc with his male organ health (as well as with his overall health.)

Why is alcohol attractive?

First, there's nothing wrong with a moderate amount of alcohol. As a matter of fact, numerous studies have indicated that there can be health benefits to regularly consuming reasonable amounts of wine or beer.

In addition, in social situations, most people are quite capable of handling a drink or two. In sensible quantities, a little alcohol can also relieve some tension and loosen a man up, both of which can be positive.

How much is too much?

While this article does not mean to imply that all alcohol use should be off-limits, it is important to realize that moderation, as with so many things, is key. However, when it comes to drinking, “how much is too much” is a question with an elusive answer. What is too much for one man may be perfectly fine for another. However, the National institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) defines a "low risk" drinker as a man who has no more than 4 drinks on any single day and no more than 14 drinks in a week.

This is a generalization and does not take into account many factors, including whether a person is on medication that may interact negatively with alcohol or whether he suffers from conditions such as diabetes, liver disease, heart disease, etc. that can be impacted by alcohol use.

Drinking and sensuality

Too much alcohol can have a definite effect on a man’s romantic life.

• Down it goes. While a little "buzz" often makes a man feel more confident and hot, this effect is short-lived; alcohol tends to ultimately "bring one down" both in energy and mood, so even if an initial rush makes a man feel like a conqueror, it's very possible his male organ will have "petered out" by the time it gets beneath the sheets. Worse, long term alcohol abuse can create more lasting male dysfunction issues, as nerve signal interference prevents the male organ from remaining hard for as long as desired.

• Driven away. Male drive can also be negatively impacted by alcohol in the long run. To a large degree, a man's drive is related to androgen levels. This is a bit oversimplified, but basically, the higher the androgen, the more ready, willing and anxious a guy is to satisfy his itch. The owner of a drunk manhood quickly finds that his androgen levels have been depressed; his drive shifts into low gear, and the male organ finds itself rarely taken out for any pleasurable excursions.

• Insensitivity runs rampant. Finally, long term drinking means a guy's male organ just doesn't feel as good as it used to. Loss of some male organ sensation is normal as men age, but a man who is a heavy drinker soon finds that his male organ is becoming dulled and deadened to touch. The alcohol promotes nerve damage, which can make it harder and harder to get a male organ to feel that unbelievable stimulation that it craves.

Watch the drinks.

The man who drinks too much should make a concerted effort to scale back or stop altogether, if for no other reason than to make sure that his male organ remains in good working order.

Keeping equipment, whether a drunk manhood or a sober one, in good shape is crucial for all men. In addition to getting proper sleep and staying in good overall health, it's important to target general male organ health as well. Part of any male organ health regimen should be the use of a top drawer male organ health cream (health professionals recommend Man 1 Man Oil). The most effective creams are those which provide a range of healthy vitamins, such as A, B5 and D, along with indispensable nutrients like acetyl L carnitine (especially good for maintaining male organ sensitivity) and L-arginine (an invaluable ally in keeping male organ blood vessels in good operating health).
