[QUOTE="MarkLA, post: 54132, member: 12487"] Two hypotheses: 1. Carbs support serotonin and perhaps serotonin would support erectile function. I have been very LC for a long time and just switched back to eating ~100g carbs per day. My mood, energy, body temp, etc. is better. ED was not a problem before and isn't better now. 2. Evolutionarily - I would think that a period of low carbs might look to the brain like a famine. Famine isn't when you want to reproduce. I know I am reaching here but we know when female BF or calories get too low, the periods stop. Perhaps there is a similar mechanism in men. [/QUOTE]
