Nutrition and Penis Sensitivity – How Amino Acids Affect Penile Health

Amino acids are often referred to as the “building blocks” for proteins, which are complex molecules that carry out many essential functions in the body. Among the other vital roles they play, proteins are needed to maintain cell structure; to produce the hormones which regulate metabolism and bodily functions such as sexual arousal; and to send signals from the nerve receptors to the brain. One of these amino acids, acetyl L carnitine, is especially important to maintaining penis sensitivity and overall penile health.

Increased Penis Sensation
Rough sexual activity or masturbation can sometimes cause peripheral nerve damage which may desensitize the penis over time. The skin might also become rough or callused, which can block tactile sensation during sexual activity. With its neuro-protective qualities, acetyl L carnitine works to protect and restore the delicate nerve tissue that is needed for normal penis sensitivity.

Help for Penis Bending and Curvature
Peyronie’s disease, which results in unnatural curving or bending of the penis, may affect men between the ages of 40 and 60. This disease can be caused from injuries during sex that can include a penile fracture, as well as more minor injuries sustained during an uncomfortable movement of the penis (such as when trying a new sexual position). In an Italian study, it was found that acetyl L carnitine may be helpful in correcting curvature of the penis.

Improved Sperm Activity
Acetyl L carnitine has been said to increase sperm motility, which is especially beneficial in men whose sperm does not perform correctly. Therefore, supplementing this nutrient may lead to an increase in fertility.

Enhanced erectile function
Studies have shown that administering acetyl L carnitine supplements to men helped to restore their normal erections during sleep, which is a good indicator of overall physiological well-being, as well as healthy sexual function. The same study also found that use of acetyl L carnitine improved the quality of participants’ erections, thus helping them to have more satisfying sex lives.

Protection against Infection

Irritation of the penis skin can provide openings for bacteria in the genital area to penetrate, resulting in penis soreness, redness or even infection, as well as an unattractive appearance and foul odors. Acetyl L carnitine works to boost the immune system, thus reducing the ability for harmful bacteria to take hold and cause penile health problems.

How to Make the Most of the Penis Health Benefits of Acetyl L Carnitine
This supplement is available in various forms, such powder shakes, which are often used by body builders due to its muscle-building properties. However, acetyl L carnitine often bypasses the penile tissue in the digestive process. Therefore, applying a penis health cream containing this vital nutrient can help to ensure that acetyle L carnitine is absorbed into the penile tissue for maximum benefit.
