Marriages are collapsing in Ghana because of sexual weakness - Dr. Caesar

The Chief Executive Officer of M.Y. Caesar Company Limited has highlighted sexual weakness as a significant factor contributing to the high divorce rate in Ghana.

In an exclusive interview with Modern Ghana, he emphasized that public education is crucial in combating this issue, noting that many men affected by sexual weakness are unaware of its underlying causes. He urged the Ministry of Health to take up public education as a mandate to address the situation.

Dr. Caesar identified lifestyle factors such as smoking, lack of physical activity, poor diet, obesity, and excessive alcohol consumption as central contributors to erectile dysfunction and related issues. He noted that the prevalence of sexual disorders varies across different societies.

"Sexual dysfunction poses challenges for emotional relationships and can lead to reduced marital satisfaction, emotional stress, decreased communication, and an inability to solve problems, which may eventually lead to divorce," he stated.

Dr. Caesar, also known as "Adabrejo," assured that seeking the right medical treatment can effectively address these issues.

Diet
He indicated that erectile dysfunction can be a challenging issue for many men, but certain foods can help support healthy erections.

"Spinach, oysters, proteins, cocoa, tomatoes, avocados, coffee, and Mediterranean diet foods are all beneficial for combating ED. These foods contain critical building blocks for a healthy erection.

"For instance, spinach is rich in folate, which can help increase blood flow, while oysters are high in zinc, a mineral that supports testosterone production.

"Proteins from lean meats and poultry are important for making nitric oxide, a substance that widens blood vessels and boosts blood flow.

"Cocoa contains flavonoids, which can improve blood flow and heart health, while tomatoes are high in lycopene, which also supports blood flow. Avocados are packed with heart-healthy fats and potassium, which can help improve circulation and support overall cardiovascular health," he stated.
