Everyone has
heard of Viagra – the drug that has given many men the best sex of their
lives. However, it’s side affects – such as giving everything a blue
tint are as also well known. In addition – some men should not take
Viagra such as those that suffer from heart disease.
I have to admit I tried Viagra to see what it did – after spending money
for a doctor’s appointment AND paying $10 dollars for each pill. The
effect? Yes – Viagra did make me REAL horny AND gave me a rock hard
erection – but it did also tint everything blue!! I thought – great
but is there something else on the market with similar effects.
At my corner gas station was a small packet being sold for a dollar called
“Horny Goat Weed.” I thought if this stuff works, great but WHO has
heard of Horny Goat Weed?
Behind the funny name of horny goat weed
stands a time-tested aphrodisiac that increases libido in men and women,
and improves erectile function in men. Known also as Epimedium or Yin Yang
Huo in China, horny goat weed was first described in ancient classical
Chinese medicinal texts.
Although this herb has a history of traditional use for disorders of the
kidneys, joints, liver, back and knees, its principle use is as an
aphrodisiac. According to one herbal expert, Horny Goat Weed has
testosterone-like effects. It stimulates sexual activity in both men and
women, increases sperm production, stimulates the sensory nerves, and
increases sexual desire.
Horny goat weed is a leafy plant, which grows in the wild, most abundantly
at higher altitudes. The leaves of the plant contain a variety of
flavonoids, polysaccharides, sterols and an alkaloid called magnaflorine.
And while the exact way that horny goat weed works remains unknown, the
plant has long been employed by the Chinese to restore sexual fire and
boost erectile function.
A great deal of research has been done in recent years concerning human
sexual performance and libido drive. Some of that research has focused on
natural, botanical ingredients, which have legendary history as natural
aphrodisiacs, and Horny Goat Weed is among the top performers.
The Chinese Academy of Sciences recommends the regular use of Horny Goat
Weed to slow the aging process, as it improves the overall quality of life
as well.
