To: Tell It Right

Viagra not the most heart friendly. So says a friend of course.

Viagra helps lower blood pressure. It was first investigated for BP control but then they discovered a happy side effect and knew it would sell faster and for higher prices if marketed for its side effect.

Of course, one should never indulge in too much of a good thing.

I don’t know if the porn industry had the same rules as Hollywood about getting many many jabs. There’s a joke in there somewhere.

Actually, all of the erectile drugs are very good for your heart and increase blood flow and lower blood pressure.

The only time there is an issue is if someone uses nitrates, which can drop blood pressure too low.

All cause mortality greatly drops for users, including things like Alzheimer’s (probably because blood flow in white matter in brain improves).

This was something else.

If I remember correctly, it was actually invented to be a heart medication. It was supposed to treat high blood pressure and angina.
