    Newsletter Highlights
    Welcome to our March Access Digest newsletter. This month, we focus on vacuum therapy as the safest and most effective form of impotence treatment. Vacuum therapy is clinically proven to be effective for all causes of impotence, regardless of whether your impotence is mild or severe.
    In This Issue
    Sexual dysfunction is certainly nothing to be ashamed of. Approximately 30 million men in the U.S. suffer from some degree of impotence. The good news is that Medicare covers impotence devices for diabetic recipients. In addition, there are now products available to help overcome this condition.

    Vacuum therapy is recommended by Urologists as the first, safest and most successful treatment for impotence. We recommend and provide the leading vacuum therapy treatment, The Encore System. For 12 years, Encore has manufactured vacuum therapy to treat impotence. Read below for more information on how you could qualify and pay little to nothing for this form of therapy.

    This month we've combined the Healthy Eating and Exercise into a new section called Healthy Living. Since both diet and exercise are vital to reducing the complications of diabetes we'll provide exercise tips and healthy foods in this section every month. For additional links to diet and exercise as it relates to diabetes, please see our Helpful Links on the right column of this and every newsletter.

    Last month we received several questions from our readers. We have posted some of the more common questions for everyone to read. If you have questions or comments, please email them by clicking on the link in that section of the newsletter and send them to us.
    We hope you enjoy this issue of the newsletter and thank you for choosing Access Diabetic Supply as your choice for diabetic supplies.

    Sexuality Later in Life

    Normal Physical Changes with Age

    Many older people continue to have the desire to enjoy an active and satisfying sex life. Continued sexual activity and exercise help maintain the ability to enjoy ongoing sexual relations. However, due to the normal aging process people notice a slowing of response.

    Sex with Diabetes & Other Illnesses

    Diabetes is one of the few illnesses that can cause impotence in men, and vacuum therapy is the first treatment Urologists turn to for the treatment of impotence.

    Other ailments can also affect sexual activity, however the most serious conditions shouldn't inhibit people from having a satisfying sex life.

    Vacuum Therapy for Impotence
    Vacuum therapy is the safest, most effective form of impotence treatment. It is 90% successful. Vacuum therapy has helped over one million couples resume a normal sex life.

    How Does it Work?
    We recommend the Encore System, which is covered by Medicare. This system is completely external. The Encore System increases the proper blood flow to the penis, resulting in a rigid erection. A soft comfortable ring is then placed at the base of the penis to hold the erection. This form of therapy is easy to use and is safe, simple, and successful.

    Q: Can vacuum therapy improve my erectyle condition?

    A: Yes, it can. Regular use of a vacuum device may help open penile arteries and possibly restore them to their natural elasticity. This may allow these penile arteries to carry a more normal bloood flow into the penis resulting in natural rigid erections in conjunction with prescription medications.

    Q: Do I have to have diabetes to have my impotence device covered by Medicare?

    A: No, you do not need to have diabetes. You need only to be diagnosed by your doctor for erectyle dysfunction. If you or a loved one are suffering remember to discuss this with your doctor and we will be glad to discuss this with you further.
