FDA Warns Against Chinese-Made Supplements Containing Viagra

5 02 2008

fda-warns-chinese-herbal-contains-viagra-sildenafil-citrate

WASHINGTON - Some Chinese-made dietary supplements marketed to provide male sexual enhancement contain undeclared erectile dysfunction drugs putting users at risk, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration warned Friday. The agency advised consumers to stay away from Shangai Chaojimengnan supplements sold under the names Super Shangai, Strong Testis, Shangai Ultra, Shangai Ultra X, Lady Shangai and Shangai Regular. The Chinese-made supplements are packaged and distributed by Shangai Distributor Inc. of Puerto Rico.

 

Over and over again, everyday I find a story about Viagra (actually Sildenafil citrate) being hidden in a herbal impotence or sex product. It seems that evey herbal provider (not affiliate sites, but the places that actually have the herbs on the shelf and fullfill orders), are putting together their own proprietary herbal male impotence/erectile dysfunction product with their own brand name.

There must be hundreds of viagra alternatives, at least. So many that I can not remember which ones I’ve written about and there is no longer any point in my adding to the list on this blog since we are about the real thing, Viagra.

Anyways, in order to beat the competition and keep the men coming back, they all want to have the best, most effective herbal, all natural Viagra sex pill, so they are putting Sildenafil citrate (from India, China, other countries), in with the herbs and not telling anyone.

Then they get caught, recall the products, change it’s name and do it all over again.

I’ve had enough, I’m not doing their promotional work any longer.

If I find real credible erectile dysfunction, viagra alternatives, like pomegranate juice, I’ll be happy to write about it.

 

good nite.



Patented Norwegian Penis Ring Will Replace Viagra

30 01 2008

Norwegian penis ring can replace Viagra, that’s the claim being made.

patented-norwegian-battery-operated-penis-ring

(not actual device)

A thin, battery driven ring which can be drawn onto the penis should be able to produce the same effect as potency stimulating pills in order to give men suffering male impotance (erectile dysfunction) the proper erection hardness for vaginal penetration.

The mechanical, rather than chemical, approach is a Norwegian invention. Electrical engineer Birger Orten invented the simple stimulator. The contraption is comprised of a narrow, thin ring with advanced energy transferral that is placed at the root of the penis.

(advanced energy transferral? whoa! It’s the Star Trek Penis Enlarger)

The machine has no side effects, needs no prescription and works immediately. It can also be mounted inside a condom.

Urology specialist Einar Christiansen has attended tests of the product on 28 men suffering from mild impotence and found that the ring had a markedly positive effect on 60 percent of them.

“The tests were carried out in a laboratory with electrical wires coupled to various apparatus, so I would assume the effect would be greater at home or other circumstances,” Christiansen said.

The ring will complete testing next year and should be on sale in a year’s time.

The ring is already patented in Norway and the process is underway in the USA and 103 other countries.

UK Drug Retail Chain Announces Herbal Viagra Alternative

22 01 2008

superdrug-herbal-viagra-alternative-viapro

Although there are dozens and dozens of herbal Viagra alternatives online, I had not heard of any herbal Viagra alternatives selling in off line retail stores, until today.

The United Kingdom’s second largest beauty and health retailer has announced they will be selling Viapro, a herbal alternative to Viagra.

Superdrug is currently operating over 900 stores in England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland.

 

viapro-natural-herbal-viagra-alternative

 

“Viapro™ are an all-natural herbal supplement, clinically tested, that enhances male sexual performance. Viapro™ contain a scientifically researched combination of 22 powerful natural herbs that produce long lasting, hard erections and boost sexual stamina and energy. Potent and effective, Viapro™ have no adverse side effects, and it works fast. You take Viapro™ 45 minutes before sexual intercourse and it lasts up to 24 hours.” - viapro.co.uk

Clinically tested huh? Those are strong words.

And I wonder if Pfizer will challenge the use of “via” in the name?



Three Herbs That Work Like Viagra

5 01 2008

Everything below the horizonal line is from impotenceguide.info . They get full credit for their research and for their writing. I have researched Viagra-like herbal and natural substances several times, and I can say that impotenceguide.info has the best all-in-one-place written information on the subject.


 

Three Herbs That Work Like Viagra

If you are looking for herbal alternatives to Viagra, backed by research, we present a number of
such herbs below.

 

Mucuna Pruriens works as a prolactin inhibitor, a growth hormone stimulant, and to increase testosterone.

A US patent was filed in 2002 on the use of mucuna pruriens to stimulate the release of growth hormone in humans. High levels of l-dopa in the mucuna seed are converted to dopamine, which stimulates the release of growth hormone by the pituitary gland. L-dopa and dopamine are effective prolactin inhibitors.

Increased levels of prolactin are considered responsible for 70% of erection failure in men. In one study, ingestion of the seeds in 56 males improved erection, duration of coitus, and post-coital satisfaction after four weeks of treatment. It also promotes spermatogenic effects in men, improving sperm count and motility.

 

 

Tribulus Terrestris is a natural testosterone enhancer. It is also said to be an excellent circulatory system tonic, and can help build muscles and strength.

Clinical studies on the sexual activity-enhancing effect of tribulus have shown it to contain protodioscin, a saponin constituent, improving libido in men with impotence due to various causes, libido in women with menopausal symptoms, and sperm motility in infertile and subfertile men.

In another study involving 59 men, ages 22-67 and suffering from a range of sexual dysfunctions, an increase in sexual desire and fantasies, as well as sexual self-confidence, was reported in almost all patients. The subjective experience of pleasure, joy and satisfaction was reported in 80%, erection improved in over 75%, and the duration of intercourse before ejaculation was prolonged in 25%.

 

Ashwagandha

Here is what the Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center said in their Ashwagandha Clinical Summary:

“It (Ashwagandha) is also used as a general tonic, to increase energy and improve health and longevity… Ashwagandha has shown…antioxidant effects in the brain and…a tranquilizing effect on the central nervous system in animals…human studies suggest Ashwagandha may promote growth in children and improve hemoglobin concentration, red blood cell count, and sexual performance in adults”.

French Maritime Pine Trees Give Men Big Woodies!

4 01 2008

viagra-alternative-maritime-pine-bark-extract

 

The Maritime Pine (Pinus pinaster) is a pine native to the western Mediterranean region. The range extends from Portugal and Spain north to southern and western France, east to western Italy, and south to northern Morocco, with small outlying populations in Algeria and Malta. wikipedia.com

 

Another natural, herbal, Viagra alternative has popped up. Men suffering from erectile dysfunction (ED), a sexual disorder characterised by the inability to develop or maintain an erection of the penis, may now look to the French maritime pine tree for a natural alternative to Pfizer’s Viagra (Sildenafil citrate).

A new study at the Medical University of Sofia, Bulgaria , has shown that Prelox, a blend of Pycnogenol, the extract from the bark of the pine tree, and L-Arginine aspartate, an amino acid-can improve the condition of men with erectile dysfunction naturally. - dailyindia.com

 

Prelox was found to improve the performance of effected men in just one day during the study, to be published in an upcoming edition of the International Journal of Impotence Research. It was found that Prelox markedly increased the production of nitric oxide, the key mediator involved in expanding arteries for elevated blood flow during erections. By the end of the study, all men taking Prelox experienced almost a 100 percent increase of orgasmic function, sexual desire, intercourse satisfaction and overall satisfaction.

 

This is great news!

But what is this stuff called Prelox?

Prelox is a blend of Pycnogenol and L-Arginine.

Pycnogenol is a patented trade name for a water extract of maritime pine tree bark.

“Pycnogenol® contains oligomeric proanthocyanidins (OPCs) as well as several other bioflavonoids: catechin, epicatechin, phenolic fruit acids (such as ferulic acid and caffeic acid), and taxifolin.” - National Institute of Health

L-Arginine is a non essential amino acid.

 

YeeeeeeeHaaaaw!

Tribulus Terrestris Is The Latest Viagra Alternative For Erectile Dysfunction On The World Market

29 12 2007

Tribulus vine from a distance.

tribulus-terrestris-puncture-vine-goathead-viagra-alternative-flower
Close up of a Tribulus flower on the vine.

 

I heard that a herbalist in Canada, Robert Rogers, recommends Tribulus saying that tribulus increases testosterone production by up to 30%. I could not confirm this.

I have found many articles online that refer to a bulgarian study of 200 men suffering from impotance. Supposedly, the results showed that tribulus extracts increased sperm production and sperm survival. I have not been able to confirm this either.

 

In my research, I found this snippet from about.com.

In the mid-1990s, tribulus terrestris became known in North America after Eastern European Olympic athletes said that taking tribulus helped their performance. The active compounds in tribulus are called steroidal saponins. Tribulus is most often used for infertility, erectile dysfunction, and low libido. In the last decade, it has become popular to improve sports performance. - about.com

 

I wasn’t totally convinced by the article on about.com so I searched for a more authoritative opinion on the possibility of Tribulus terrestris being a valid alternative to Viagra (Sildenafil citrate) for erectilte dysfunction (male impotance).

 

I finally found an opinion from a medical doctor:

 

Tribulus Terrestris and sexual behavior
One rodent study found tribulus to be helpful as a sex booster. Sexual behavior and intracavernous pressure (ICP) were studied in both normal and castrated rats to further understand the role of tribulus as an aphrodisiac. ICP refers to blood flow into the corpus cavernosa of the penis. Adult rats were divided into groups of 8 each that included distilled water treated (normal and castrated), testosterone treated (normal and castrated) and tribulus treated (castrated). Compared to the castrated control, treatment of castrated rats (with either testosterone or tribulus extract) showed increase in prostate weight and ICP. There was also a mild to moderate improvement in sexual behavior as evidenced by an increase in mounting frequency.
In my personal and professional experience, tribulus terrestris does seem to have a positive influence on sexual enhancement. I personally have noticed improved sexual performance after a few days of tribulus supplement use. Passion Rx with tribulus extract is even more potent. - Ray Sahelian, M.D.

 

Extracts of Tribulus can be found online and in many health food stores in capsules, tablets, and ground powder. It is also used in many power drinks.

 

that’s it.



How To Be Hung Like A Horse Without Buying Viagra (Sildenafil citrate)

21 12 2007

Want to be hung like a horse?

Get ready for Ayurveda!

Ayurveda is an ancient system of health care that is native to the Indian subcontinent. It is presently in daily use by millions of people in India, Nepal, Sri Lanka and indirectly through it being the major influence on Unani, Chinese and Tibetan Medicine - wikipedia.com

 

Ayurveda is a recently rising Viagra alternative cure for erectile dysfunction and male impotence.

Ayurveda defines Erectile dysfunction or ED as follows.

Sankalpapravano nityam priyaam vashyaamapi sthreeyam ||
na yaathi lingashaithilyaath kadaachidyaathi vaa yadi |
Shwaasaarthaha swinnagaatrshcha moghasankalpacheshtitaha ||
mlaanashishnashcha nirbeejaha syodetat klaibyalaxanam |

Got it?

Okay, sorry for the Sanskrit language. I didn’t get it either.

The Sanskrit gibberish boils down to this “even though a man has a strong desire to perform sexual act with a cooperative partner, he cannot perform sexual act because of looseness (absence of erection) of his phallus (penis). Even if he performs sexual act with his determined efforts he does not get erection and gets afflicted with tiredness, perspiration and frustration to perform sex.” - boloji.com

 

All we care about is if Ayurveda has a cure for the male impotence disease, erectile dysfunction. Yes, in fact Ayurveda had cures for ED much earlier than the now famous oral ED cures. There are quite a few cures in Ayurveda in order to cure ED. Ayurveda maintains that ED treatments can be administered to patients of all ages from 18 to 70. It is a treatable disease that can be treated by the ayurvedic cures and that too without side effects.

For example there is an ED cure in Ayurveda named the Vajikarana therapy. In the Sanskrit language Vaji refers to a horse. Thus this therapy claims that its usage will arm a person with a sexual poweress of a horse. (Vaaji = Horse)

 

Happy Trails!



Overcoming Erectile Dysfunction with At Home Exercises

19 12 2007

It’s Viagra or nothing, right?

Wrong. There are many other things a guy can do, or at least try.

One of those alternatives is to manually exercise your PC muscle.

erectile-dysfuntion-pc-muscle-exercise

The pubococcygeus muscle or PC muscle is a hammock-like muscle, found in both sexes, that stretches from the pubic bone to the coccyx (tail bone) forming the floor of the pelvic cavity and supporting the pelvic organs. It surrounds the rectum, the vagina (in women) and bladder openings. A well-developed pubococcygeus muscle can enhance sex and orgasm in both sexes.- wikipedia.com

 

Badda-bing-badda-boom!

 

1. Kegel Exercise Kegel exercise also known as the PC ( Pubococcygeus) muscle exercise. First introduce by Dr. Arnold Kegel. This exercise highly recommended by medical doctors and sex therapists to improve their physical and sexual health.

2. Weight Hanging Weight hanging exercises are basically just like they sound. It is very risky to a permanent damaged of the penis. It is recommended only to whom ever tried to hang weight before or the men with thick skin.

3. Ballooning Ballooning is the technique of holding your orgasm during sex. It is recommended to hold your orgasm back five times during intercourse to get the full benefits.

4. Jelquing Jelquing is a kind of messaging your penis. Always start from the bottom to the glance (head of penis), do it one way from bottom to to the tip by using your thumb and forefinger. If it is a little abusive, you may use some lotion.

The most widely known pc muscle exercise is the Kegel exercise.

A Kegel exercise, named after Dr. Arnold Kegel, is an exercise designed to strengthen the pubococcygeus muscles. The exercise consists of contracting and relaxing the muscles which form part of the pelvic floor (sometimes called the “Kegel muscles”). - wikipedia.com

 

 

Good luck.



Buy Pomegranate Juice As Good As Buy Viagra

Buying Pomegranate Juice As Good As Buying Viagra

 

Is there no end to the promises of successful buy viagra alternatives?

 

 

 

 

“Men who want to boost their performance in the bedroom should drink pomegranate juice, says a new research. According to the University of California scientists, a daily glass can act like Viagra.” - indiatimes.com

 

I have never heard of pomegranate fruit and don’t even know how to say it.

viagra-substitute-pomegranate-fruit

 

“The Pomegranate (Punica granatum) is a fruit-bearing deciduous shrub or small tree growing to 5–8 m tall. The pomegranate is native to the region from Afghanistan, Pakistan, and Iran to the Himalayas in northern India and has been cultivated and naturalized over the whole Mediterranean region and the Caucasus since ancient times. It is widely cultivated throughout Armenia, Azerbaijan, Iran, India, the drier parts of southeast Asia, Malaya, the East Indies, and tropical Africa. Introduced into Latin America and California by Spanish settlers in 1769, pomegranate is now cultivated mainly in the drier parts of California and Arizona for its fruits exploited commercially as juice products gaining in popularity since 2001 [10] [11]. In the global functional food industry, pomegranate is often mentioned among a novel category of exotic plant sources called “superfruits” - wikipedia

 

 

 

 

Geesus! Took me longer to find a pronounciation for pomegranate, than to find the news of it.

One site has it: pom-UH-gran-it

wiki.answers.com: pom-eh-gran-it or pom-a-gran-it

Pretty close, take yer choice. No matter how you say it, if you drink a glass a day you’ll be able to have erections whenever you are sexually aroused.

“Lead author Dr Christopher Forest says that the juice is rich in antioxidants, which increases blood supply to the genitals.” - indiatimes.com

 

Allowing increased blood flow to the genitals is exactly what Viagra does!

Here are some other health benefits of promegranate fruit:

  • a glass of pomegranate juice contains about 40% of the US Recommended Daily Allowance (RDA) of Vitamin C. It also has Vitamin A, E and folic acid in good quantities.
  • pomegranate juice has excellent antioxidant properties. It has about three times more antioxidants ounce for ounce than does red wine or green tea.
  • Pomegranate juice has been shown to work well as a blood thinner.
  • Some research has shown it may be an excellent agent for promoting blood flow to the heart.
  • It also has been shown to reduce plaque in the arteries,
  • and to raise “good” levels of cholesterol while helping lower “bad” cholesterol.

This preliminary research suggests that pomegranate juice may be helpful in preventing heart disease, heart attacks and stroke. - wisegeek.com

 

The promegranate plant is an ancient fruit, (mentioned in the Bible as rimmon), and known around the world by different names:

La grenade French

Granatapfel German

Italian name melograno, or less commonly melagrana

Even though this fruit does not originate from China, one common nickname is “Chinese apple.”

A fruit syrup is also made from promegranates called grenadine from the French la grenade.

 

I’m really liking this buy viagra alternative, not for it’s penile dysfunction cure, but for it’s heart and circulatory and aterial benefits. hmmm.

Merry Christmas!



Mountain View, California Pharmaceutical Company Hides Viagra in Two Products

2 12 2007

axcil-desirin-fake-viagra

I first heard of the Viagra hidden in “natural” products from THE CANADIAN PRESS:

TORONTO - Health Canada is warning consumers not to use two supplements sold as natural erectile dysfunction products because they contain a prescription medication. The products, marketed under the brand names Axcil and Desirin, contain sildenafil. - canadaeast.com

 

Axcil and Desirin are two products manufactured by TWC Global, LLC, 530 Showers Drive, Suite 7-129, Mountain View, CA and marketed as natural treatments for erectile dysfunction (ED).

Axil has been widely promoted on the internet and can still be found easily with a search in Google.

One site we found at the #2 spot in Google healthpower.com made these amazing claims:

Axcil™ (GL49) is a scientifically formulated, breakthrough dietary supplement containing a proprietary standardized botanical extract that acts synergistically to promote erectile function and sexual desire in men.

 

Not coincidently, the first ingredient that healthpower.com lists for Axcil is L-Arginine which we have already written about as a possible Viagra alternative.

The main site for Axcil, www.axcil.com displays the following message:

“The Axcil and Desirin products are currently unavailable.

If you want to order Bonafil or Callix products, please call us at
650-575-0828, or fax your order to: 650-428-0451.

We apologize for any inconveneince.”

 

TWC Global, the manufacturer has issued a recall for both products after being notified by the FDA that both products contain Viagra’s active ingredient sildenafil.

 

So, they didn’t know that their products contain Sildenafil?

 

I wonder how that could happen?

 



Arginine: The Natural Viagra Alternative

19 11 2007

Last month we summarized four herbal Viagra alternatives.

This post will highlight one of them; arginine.

Unlike some other popular Viagra alternatives, arginine is not extracted from roots or bark of some exotic plant. Arginine is one of the twenty or so identified amino acids that build protein in our bodies. It’s not an herbal viagra alternative. Arginine is an amino acid that enhances blood flow and it’s found naturally in foods.

Some food sources containing arginine are dairy, meat, poultry, and fish are good sources of arginine. Nuts and chocolate also contain significant amounts of this amino acid.

arginine-viagra-alternative

 

 

 

“The amino acid L-arginine is considered the most potent Nutraceutical ever discovered, due to its powerful healing properties, and is referred to by scientists as the Miracle Molecule.” - anginineresearch.com

 

 

 

Nutraceutical is the crossing of the two words nutrition and pharmaceutical coined by Dr. Stephen Defelice in 1989 and refers to any substance that is a food or a part of a food and provides medical or health benefits, including the prevention and treatment of disease.

“In a study of 50 men at Tel Aviv University, 31% of those with impotence improved after six weeks of taking arginine. The ones who might benefit from it are men who have circulatory disorders that may be contributing to sexual problems. The suggested dose is 1 gram three times a day; sold as L-arginine.” - askmen.com

 

Arginine is a popular treatment for the following conditions:

  • Arthritis.
  • Alzheimer’s Patients
  • Cancer Patients.
  • Liver Disorders.
  • Weight Loss.
  • Body Building.
  • Fertility.

primev.com

 

Taken in small doses there do not seem to be any adverse side effects. Large doses can cause several serious side effects; consult a doctor first.



Herbal Generic Viagra - No Prescription Needed

1 11 2007

herbal-generic-viagrawikipedia.com

 

In some places you can buy herbal viagra or natural viagra along the roadside. Ah, freedom at it’s best. The image above was taken in Turkey.

When I checked wikipedia.com for ‘herbal viagra’, their article mentioned Duro as a viagra alternative. I hadn’t heard of Duro, so I thought I should check it out.

However, finding a website about Duro was not easy. The first page of Google’s results for ‘duro’ listed sites selling: tires, paper bags, hose reels, textiles, fashion designing, and vinyl roofing, and other stuff, but nothing to get me rock hard.

Next, I tried a search for ‘duro viagra’ and finally learned something about duro herbal viagra.

I learned that a few years ago, a Welsh rugby team all ate this duro generic/herbal/natural viagra substitute in order to get up for a hard game.

“A Welsh rugby team plans to stiffen its defence with help from a Chinese supplement dubbed “herbal viagra.” - bbc.co.uk

 

viagra-generic-herbal-duro-rugby

From the photo that bbc.co.uk provided, I’m not sure what sort of “natural” alternatives were being used to get the players UP.

 

The duro viagra alternative is said to contain some sort of extract from the larval remains of silkworms and rumor has it that it’s power is in it’s ability to increase a man’s stamina.

 

I dunno,

Crazy Fact: Even a small amount of alcohol placed on a scorpion will make it go crazy and sting itself to death!



How To Get An Erection Without Pfizer Viagra!

22 10 2007

We already have a few posts about alternatives to Pfizer’s Viagra, such as, Yohimbe Bark, Horny Goat Weed, and Generic Viagra Jelly, but there are many more and the sales of these herbal alternatives to Viagra, Cialis, and Levitra are growing each year.

Herbal erection or impotence alternatives:

  • usually cost less.
  • have no adverse side effects.
  • No doctor’s visit is needed.
  • no exam is needed.
  • no prescription is needed.

 

 

viagra-alternatives-ginkgo-biloba-290x200

 

The Ginkgo, also known as the Maidenhair Tree, is a unique tree. For centuries it was generally believed to be extinct in the wild, but recently has been discovered to grow in at least two small areas in Zhejiang province in Eastern China, in the Tian Mu Shan Reserve. Ginkgo trees in these areas may have been tended and preserved by Chinese monks for over 1000 years.

 

 

 

Ginkgo Biloba, (aka: GBE, Ginkgo Biloba Extract), is best known as a memory booster, but it is presumed that it works by increasing blood circulation, if so, it would also help with erectile dysfunction. In a University of California study ginko helped end the sexual problems in 85% of men that were taking antidepressant drugs like Prozac.

Good results have also been demonstrated in government clinical trials:

“Ginkgo biloba extract (GBE), a naturally occurring substance from the ancient Chinese Ginkgo tree, has properties proven to increase peripheral blood flow and to facilitate the relaxation of smooth muscle tissue. Its effectiveness in this regard has been demonstrated in numerous clinical trials that show gingko biloba to be highly efficient in treating peripheral vascular disorders…Hence, pharmacologically, it is feasible that GBE may be effective in enhancing female sexual arousal.”

 

That sounds very affirmative to me, I just might pick up a bottle and one for my wife, LOL.

 

 



Viagra Alternatives - Yohimbe Bark

16 10 2007

Yohimbe-bark-viagra-alternativeChewed any Yohimbe bark lately?

Unlikely, especially since the Yohimbe tree is native to Africa.

The good news is that you don’t have to travel all the way to Africa and you don’t have to chew Yohimbe bark in order to avail yourself of it’s aphrodisiac properties.

The Viagra alternative called Yohimbe bark is actually an extract taken from the bark of the Yohimbe tree. Yohimbe has been used for centuries as an aphrodisiac in both men and women. It has even been smoked as a hallucinogen, but don’t say you heard that here.

Do not confuse Yohimbe bark extract with Yohimbine. Yohimbine is a FDA approved drug for the treatment of Erectile Dysfunction, (ED), and therefore would require a prescription, whereas, Yohimbe bark is just the extract and is just a herbal remedy.

Not many studies of Yohimbe have been done, which is the usual case for herbal remedies. If you search for “yohimbe study”, for example, you will find lots of page that seem to have Yohimbe Study results, but when you begin to read the study, you will quickly see that it was Yohimbine that was administered.

bodyandfitness.com make this claim:

“Natives to West Africa have used yohimbe for centuries by making a bitter tea from bark shavings. Drinking the tea allowed warriors who were preparing for battle become more fearless and aggressive and have more stamina. Africans used yohimbe tea selectively to help promote love as well as war.”

Love and war?

I guess that makes sense if you’re an African tribal warrior that can’t get a date.

Viagra Alternatives :: Horny Goat Weed

16 10 2007

horny-goat-weed-viagra-box

 

 

 

The first time I saw “Horny Goat Weed” listed as an alternative to Pfizer’s Viagra, I thought I was on a joke page. The real name of the plant is Epimedium sagittatum. I have been trying to trace the origin of it’s common name with little luck. I did find one reference at www.raysahelian.com:

“Legend has it that the name horny goat weed came from a herder who noticed his goats becoming more sexually active after eating the plant.”

 

If you know any other references to why Epimedium is called Horny Goat Weed please leave a comment.

.

This is a picture of the Horny Goat Weed plant.

horny-goat-weed-viagra-plant

My personal thought on the effectiveness of Horny Goat Weed is that it’s probably as effective as taking Vitamin B Complex for stress. All the books say Vitamin B Complex works to reduce stress, but I never noticed any help from it.

However, there is at least one person that believes Horny Goat Weed is worth traveling to China to research, here is a quote from health.discovery.com:

“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, horny goat weed was first described in ancient classical Chinese medicinal texts. Today, horny goat weed holds an important place in Traditional Chinese Medicine and is gaining popularity around the world.”

“On our first evening in hot, tropical Shanghai, we gathered for dinner with six of Shanghai’s top doctors of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). The group at our table constituted a Chinese medical brain trust of such grand stature, we were humbled to sit in the same room. As we ate, Medical Doctor Diao Yuan Kuang explained the virtues of TCM.”

 

No one claims to know how or why Horny Goat Weed has an aphrodisiac affect on goats and humans. It’s just one of those mysteries of the universe.

If you have even the slightest interest in Horny Goat Weed as an alternative to Pfizer Viagra, Cialis, or Levitra, I suggest that you read that article.



Generic Viagra Jelly Alternatives Blogging in United Kingdom

12 10 2007

uk-viagra-map

We posted the ‘buy viagra’ serps earlier because we wants this blog to rank well for that search term in Google. Here’s another viagra blog, (a UK blog), that is working it’s way up the SERPs, genericviagra.me.uk/blog, currently at #47. I did not see many posts, and of what I did see, most of them are the typical “filler” posts, such as,

  1. The reasons for erectile dysfunction
  2. How to overcome erectile dysfunction
  3. The Causes Of Common Erection Failure

Doesn’t #3 sound the same as #1?

I will give them credit for a lead on the story of a UK high school website that was shut down due to UK Viagra sales ads.

Any ways, the blog also has a Viagra store, or more accurately, a Kamagra store. Kamagra is made of Sildenafil Citrate, the generic form of Viagra. I don’t know why they call it Kamagra, but they offer it in tablet and jelly, (like in a jelly donut?) forms. In fact, on their store’s homepage, they claim to be “The Kamagra tablet & jelly specialists”. Okay, everyone’s gotta be special.

Good luck with the jelly but i still think the pills are better.!



Natural and Herbal Vigara Alternatives

7 10 2007

There are many alternatives to taking Pfizer’s Viagra. Most are herbal, some are mechanical devices. Here we list four of the most popular herbal alternatives to Pfizer’s Viagra.

 

Ginkgo Biloba is a Vigara alternative that helps to relax blood vessels, allowing for better circulation of the red stuff all the way down to the penis. Remember, good blood flow is essential for erections, If you don’t get the blood to where it needs to be with the Vigara alternative, erectile dysfunction will continue, no matter how excited you are.

 

Ginseng is a natural Vigara alternative, it works best as a stress-releaser and stamina-booster. Ginseng works by stimulating the adrenal glands to let loose with a little flood of substances that lower the hormones causing your stress. Ginseng also helps in getting the blood flow to all the right places.

 

Muira Puama is a Vigara alternative and a traditional Brazilian aphrodisiac made from the bark and roots of the tree from which it is derived. It works because it contains compounds that boost testosterone. Testosterone, despite what you may have gleaned from the common use of the term, is a hormone that plays a major role in the sex drives of both men and women.

 

Arginine. is a Vigara alternative and an amino acid that can be taken in supplements twice a day, it works by relaxing muscle contractions, improving the flow of blood to the pelvic area.
