The penis becomes erected and firm when it is filled or engorged with blood, especially in response to sexual arousal. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

When a man is sexually aroused, the arteries in the penis relax and open, allowing blood to flow in and fill them. The blood trapped under high pressure causes an erection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For a person to get an erection, many things are involved, such as emotion, hormones, nerves, muscles, blood vessels, and overall well-being. An imbalance in any of these can affect erection. Also, anything that disrupts blood flow to the penis can affect erectile abilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Best Foods for Stronger and Harder Erections<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

A lot of foods, especially healthy foods, are packed with lots of nutrients. Since the key to attaining and maintaining an erection is blood flow to the penis, foods for stronger and harder erection should contain nutrients that can:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
