Building muscle may offer a natural alternative to Viagra, according to a Baylor College of Medicine study. Researchers analyzed 32 studies, finding a strong correlation between muscle strength (hand grip strength, muscle volume) and improved erectile function, sexual desire, and satisfaction. While Viagra has side effects and high costs, improved muscle health through exercise and diet, including L-carnitine, may improve ED. The study suggests that therapies targeting both sexual function and muscle health could be beneficial, highlighting the importance of exercise and a healthy diet.
