The little blue pill is now available in generic form but are you convinced you want to take it? I’ve heard some horror stories and they usually end up with the guy in the hospital. I don’t want that for you, so I am going to suggest a few things you might want to include in your diet.
Horny Goat Weed
Stop laughing, Epimedium also known as Horny Goat Weed has been used for years to treat ED. Icariin the main compound in Horny Goat Weed is also the main compound in Sildenafil. That’s Viagra to you!
Pomegranate
While it hasn’t been proven to fight Erectile Dysfunction, it has all the relevant properties and sure can’t hurt. Pomegranate reduces the risk of heart disease and fights high blood pressure. So it has to be helping the cause.
Ginseng
The eighty-year-old Jamaican guy who is still fathering children swears by Ginseng. As does the old Chinese guy with that freaky kinda smile. If that’s not enough proof for you, how about this? In one 2002 study involving 45 men with significant ED, the herb helped alleviate symptoms of erectile dysfunction and brought “enhanced penile tip rigidity.” These guys had a significant problem and that was just Ginseng. Combine that with the rest of our list and you could be flying the flag.
Mondia Whitei
Often, called white ginger this is a common prescription for ED in Uganda where they prefer holistic remedies as opposed to chemicals. Mondia Whitei is actually viewed as an aphrodisiac as it increases your libido, testosterone and sperm count.
Watermelon
Yes, that’s right, run to the farmers market and buy those organic watermelons. Watermelon lowers your blood pressure. L-citrulline, when absorbed by the nitric oxide system it stimulates blood vessel dilation. Yes, this none essential amino acid does that. L-citrulline is found in watermelon. Improved blood circulation allows the flag to go up the flag pole.
Tribulus Terrestris
”One 90-day study in men with erectile dysfunction found that taking Tribulus improved self-reported ratings of sexual health and increased testosterone levels by 16%”
The use of this herb goes back centuries in herbal medicine. As well as boosting your libido the herb also helps lower both blood sugar and cholesterol levels.
