Dr. Kahn’s Approach to Men’s Sexual Health and Microcirculation:
Evaluate: Vascular Risk Factors
Top 3 Lifestyle factors:
- Diet
- Exercise
- Sleep
Inherited/Family History:

“Check their heart health, because erectile dysfunction is the canary in the coal mine.”
Treat: Recommendations
My most powerful interventions:
- Add whole foods with a lot of fruit and ditch processed foods
- Exercise 22 minutes a day or more
- Stop smoking
Supplements I Use
- Neo40
- Bergamet Pro+
- Arterosil (green seaweed capsules that restore artery linings)
- Beet powders (BioSchwartz) and Affirm tablets
When do you use Arterosil?
I will try Arterosil with all patients. Men with sexual health concerns are desperately seeking improvements, and I want to help them. Arterosil is unique as the only endothelial glycocalyx supplement backed by research.
In men with erectile dysfunction, three factors that lead me to recommend Arterosil include:
- High blood pressure
- Diabetes
- Processed food diet
Arterosil Dosage:
Initial Dose: 1 tablet twice a day
Maintenance dose: Same
Discontinue: At least a six-month trial
Measure: Progress Monitoring
I’m looking for improvements in the following measurements in men:
- EndoPAT improvements
- ADMA improvements
- Nitric oxide production improvements
Results:
My patients have had improved success, with or without erectile dysfunction medication.
Engage: Patient Compliance
Educate upfront about the reasons, the anatomy, and the importance of endothelial health.
Biggest Tip?
“Give them hope. Use a multimodal approach like Arterosil and GAINSWave shockwave therapy along with the home device Phoenix Pro”
“Check their heart health, because erectile dysfunction is the canary in the coal mine.”
