Story at-a-glance
  • Research reveals vitamin D deficiency damages blood vessel health, impairing their ability to relax and significantly contributing to erectile dysfunction and broader vascular problems
  • Optimal vitamin D levels (60 to 80 ng/mL) are essential for sexual function, as low levels reduce nitric oxide availability and weaken response to erectile dysfunction medications like Viagra
  • Vitamin D activates protective proteins that shield blood vessels from oxidative damage, while deficiency allows harmful superoxide molecules to build up and attack vascular tissue
  • Direct sunlight exposure is the best natural source of vitamin D, but supplementation with D3 is often necessary during winter months or for those with limited sun exposure
  • For maximum effectiveness, vitamin D supplementation should be paired with magnesium and vitamin K2, which help activate and direct vitamin D to where it's needed most
