Erectile dysfunction (ED), also known as impotence, is characterized by the consistent or recurrent inability to achieve and/or maintain an erection sufficient for sexual intercourse. It becomes increasingly common with age, affecting approximately 50 - 55 per cent of men aged between 40 and 70 years. ED is estimated to affect up to three-quarters of men globally, and by 2025, 322 million men are expected to experience it. Research indicates that erectile dysfunction is highly prevalent in the UK, affecting over a quarter of younger men. Among Brits with ED, cardiometabolic and psychological conditions were frequently observed. Despite the high prevalence of erectile dysfunction among men, it remains poorly understood, underdiagnosed, and undertreated.

We've all heard of Dry January, but that doesn't mean that the first month of the year is the only one where you can quit the booze for an intermittent period. No, you can do it anytime and often it can be just the push you need to review your relationship with the hard stuff. More and more of us are developing problematic relationships with alcohol, and the likes of addiction are on the rise. Attempting an alcohol detox can be a good way to understand your relationship, although if you are heavily reliant on the substance, it is worth doing it in a controlled and safe environment with professional care. That said, for many of us that isn't the case and giving up for a month can see a wealth of changes in your life. So, what can you expect exactly? Improved Physical Health First and foremost, your physical health will improve as a result. Alcohol is known for its empty calories and sugar. It's why many of us develop beer bellys and gain weight when we drink regularly. Ultimately, by cutting those calories, you'll find it much easier to shed weight and the results can happen relatively quickly. What's more, as alcohol slows down metabolism and can often lead to poor food choices like takeaways, eliminating it makes it much easier to manage your weight.
