We first learned of Dr. Aaron Spitz from The Game Changers film. In his book, aptly named The Penis Book, Dr. Spitz states that the most common reason for erectile dysfunction is a problem with blood flow to the penis due to narrowing of the arteries. In my conversation with Dr. Spitz, we discuss the causes and what you can do to prevent and even reverse erectile dysfunction by improving penis health.
