Herbal Aphrodisiac

Catuaba has an almost legendary reputation as an aphrodisiac and sexual stimulant that is said to enhance sexual desire, increase sex drive and increase libido in both women and men. According to Dr. Michael van Straten, noted British herbalist and naturopath, Catuaba is beneficial to both men and women as an aphrodisiac (treating frigidity and low sex drive in women), but it is in the area of male impotence and Erectile Dysfunction (ED) that the men achieve striking results. The herb appears to stimulate the central nervous system and increase libido and circulation in the male reproduction organ. This herbal supplement is often called an "innocent" aphrodisiac, meaning that it enhances libido without any side effects. Even after long-term use, there have been no reported ill side effects. As a matter of fact, Dr. Meira Penna claims that the only side effects reported have been erotic dreams and increased sexual desire. Its actions as a nervous system stimulant act directly on the genital organs as a sexual stimulant and tonic for genital function.

Horny Goat Weed is believed to be one of the most potent aphrodisiacs available for both men and women. The flavonoid content is said to stimulate sensory nerves, particularly in the genitals, and its use is said to increase sexual arousal, as well as increase testosterone levels and copulation activity. Testosterone stimulates centers of the brain having to do with increased sexuality in both men and women, and in several studies that were conducted, it was demonstrated that Horny Goat Weed does in fact, enhance sexuality and quality of sex life and has been prescribed for women suffering from decreased sexual motivation. It was also claimed that it improved sexual performance in patients undergoing hemo-dialysis for renal failure. Although the exact way that Horny Goat Weed acts is not fully understood, it is thought that an enzyme called acetylcholinesterase supports high levels of the key cholinergic neurotransmitters that are associated with sexual arousal, and certainly, the plant has been in use for centuries to restore sexual desire in both women and men. Modern scientists may now be a step closer to discovering how the compound, icariin, from Horny Goat Weed also works. The scientists tested icariin and other plant compounds in a lab by exposing them to an enzyme that regulates blood flow to the penis and found that its effect in the lab acted to increase blood supply to the penis, thus helping a man reach and maintain an erection.

Muirapauma is widely used as an aphrodisiac without side effects for both men and women, and some scientists say the herb increases testosterone levels, but that claim has not been clinically proven. In the case of male sexuality, it is regarded as one of the best and most effective herbs to counteract erectile dysfunction and impotence. In a paper presented to the International Congress on Ethno-pharmacology in 1990, in Strasbourg, France, a study of 262 patients who complained of erectile impotence or lack of libido noted that sixty-two percent of those who received the herb claimed that the treatment had positive effects within two weeks and greatly improved their sex lives. It is thought that when Muirapauma is used by sexually healthy men and women, it will enhance arousal and prolong the sexual experience. The herb is believed to treat impotence in men and female frigidity. South American tribal couples sometimes drink a Muirapauma tea before planned lovemaking to heighten sexual desire. The exact mechanism of the herb's efficacy is still under investigation, as the responsible constituents have not yet been isolated, but preliminary reports say that it works by enhancing both physical and psychological aspects of sexual function.
