Book Reviews of The Hardness Factor : How to Achieve Your Best Health and Sexual Fitness at Any Age

Book Review: Good basic text on the subject
Summary: 4 Stars

This was a good book from many points. Its ability to explain the background of erection is second to none. Lots of informative information here. If you want a book with all that you need to learn under one cover, this is the book for you. While most of the information can be found on the Internet for free, it's nice to have it one volume, so one doesn't have to go searching for it. The only other book I would recommend is Iron Man Penis which takes these topics to a more advanced spectrum.

Summary of The Hardness Factor : How to Achieve Your Best Health and Sexual Fitness at Any Age

A groundbreaking comprehensive guide to male health and sexuality. Sexual fitness goes hand in hand with overall health: Good sex means a man is most probably in good condition. The Hardness Factor is a comprehensive guide to sexual fitness for men, pointing the way to an enhanced self image, better sex, and improved health, and detailing how to increase sex drive and develop a measurably harder erection in just four days. The advent of Viagra is a sign that we are entering a new era of male sexual health, in which erectile problems are glitches to be overcome, not sources of shame and anxiety. This is the first major trade book to identify and describe how to achieve and preserve optimal hardness-and to show why the actual degree of hardness is the all-important barometer of a man's health. Drawing on the cutting-edge research that he has carried out over the past several years clinician and researcher Dr. Steven Lamm explains his revolutionary approach to achieving and maintaining maximal male sexual performance, with easy-to-follow suggestions that translate to not only better sex, but greater emotional intimacy and a longer and more fulfilling life. Dr. Lamm gives men all the tools and information they need to take control of their bodies, including health quizzes and a simple at-home test to assess one's hardness. He also offers dramatic firsthand before-and-after case histories of patients and up-to-the minute information on the best natural erection-promoting supplements and prescription medications. The Hardness Factor shows just how easy it can be for men to take charge of their health and sex lives.
Lamm (The Virility Solution, Thinner at Last), a practicing internist and expert on male sexual health, insists there is a direct link between the quality of a man?s overall health and the quality of his erections. Just as physicians can measure a patient?s blood pressure and percentage of body fat, Lamm claims he can measure the strength of a man?s erections (The Hardness Factor) using a new computerized device invented by a Spanish urologist. He is, therefore, not just interested in whether or not a guy can get hard during sex, but how hard. No wonder he?s such a popular guest on women?s talk shows like Oprah and The View. It is this ability to measure hardness that allows Lamm to argue it can be improved in six weeks. The program outlined in the book is heavily focused on diet and exercise with the use of a few key supplements (Pycnogenol, L-Arginine, omega-3 fatty acids, Niacin, Vitamins C and E, and Horny Goat Weed). While there is a place for prescription drugs like Viagra, Levitra, and Cialis, Lamm believes these should generally be reserved for those with more serious health problems limiting their ability to achieve erections, such as diabetes, heart disease, and the aftermath of prostate cancer surgery. Most men he treats don?t need them. And one upside to this often-embarrassing issue is that by getting healthier in order to get harder, men can avoid the underlying illnesses that would require the use of such drugs in the future.--Patrick Jennings
