Arms

  • Active Comparator: Plant-based
    The plant-based arm consists of consuming one plant-based meat meal and then using the Rigiscan™ device to measure the frequency, rigidity, and duration of nocturnal erections. The meal in the plant-based arm and the meal in the animal-based arm will differ only by whether the meal contains plant-based meat or animal meat.
  • Active Comparator: Animal-based
    The animal-based arm consists of consuming one animal meat meal and then using the Rigiscan™ device to measure the frequency, rigidity, and duration of nocturnal erections. The meal in the plant-based arm and the meal in the animal-based arm will differ only by whether the meal contains plant-based meat or animal meat.

Primary Outcome Measure

Percent of time with ≥70% erection during overnight sleep after 1 meal [ Time Frame: During overnight sleep directly after consuming the 1 meal. Up to 7 months. ]
