I Tried Natural Viagra - This Is What Happened
Link: https://linktr.ee/baseems
It’s not uncommon to look for ways to boost your sex drive.
Although some pharmaceutical drugs like Viagra may help men get an erection, many people prefer natural alternatives that are readily available, discreet, and likely to have fewer side effects.
Interestingly, research has shown that several foods and supplements may help boost your libido and treat erectile dysfunction.
Here are 7 foods and supplements that may help boost your libido.
1. Tribulus
Tribulus terrestris is a small leafy plant whose roots and fruit are popular in traditional Chinese and Ayurvedic medicine (1Trusted Source).
It’s also widely available as a sports supplement and commonly marketed to boost testosterone levels and improve sex drive.
While human studies haven’t shown that it can raise testosterone levels, it appears to increase sex drive in both men and women.
In a 90-day study in women reporting low sexual pleasure, taking 750 mg of Tribulus terrestris daily increased sexual satisfaction in 88% of participants (2Trusted Source).
What’s more, a 2-month study in men revealed that taking 750–1,500 mg of Tribulus terrestris daily improved sexual desire in 79% of them (3Trusted Source).
However, studies in men with erectile dysfunction show mixed results.
One study found that taking 800 mg of this supplement daily for 30 days did not treat erectile dysfunction. Conversely, in another study, taking 1,500 mg daily for 90 days improved erections, as well as sexual desire (4Trusted Source, 5Trusted Source).
As such, more research is needed on Tribulus terrestris and erectile dysfunction.
SUMMARY
Tribulus terrestris may help raise libido in men and women. Yet, results regarding its ability to treat erectile dysfunction are inconsistent, so more research is needed.
2. Maca
Maca (Lepidium meyenii) is a root vegetable traditionally used to enhance fertility and sex drive. You can buy supplements in various forms, including powders, capsules, and liquid extracts.
A 12-week study noted that 42% of men who took 1,500–3,000 mg of maca daily experienced an increased sex drive (6Trusted Source).
Furthermore, in a review of 4 studies in 131 people, taking maca consistently for at least 6 weeks improved sexual desire. It also helped treat mild erectile dysfunction in men (7Trusted Source).
Additionally, some evidence suggests that maca may help combat the loss in libido that may occur as a side effect of certain antidepressant drugs (8Trusted Source).
Most studies found that taking 1.5–3.5 grams daily for at least 2–12 weeks was sufficient to boost libido (6Trusted Source, 7Trusted Source).
SUMMARY
Maca may help boost libido and improve erectile function in men with mild erectile dysfunction.
3. Red ginseng
Ginseng — and red ginseng in particular — may aid low libido and improve sexual function.
A 20-week study in 32 menopausal women found that taking 3 grams of red ginseng per day significantly improved sexual desire and function, compared with a placebo (9Trusted Source).
In addition, red ginseng may boost the production of nitric oxide, a compound that aids blood circulation and helps muscles in the penis relax. In fact, studies have revealed that this herb was at least twice as effective as a placebo at enhancing erectile function (10Trusted Source, 11Trusted Source, 12Trusted Source).
However, other studies have found no effect of red ginseng on libido or sexual function, and some experts question the strength of these studies (13Trusted Source, 14Trusted Source, 15Trusted Source).
Thus, more research is needed.
Red ginseng is generally well tolerated but may cause side effects, such as headaches and upset stomach. It may also interact with medications like blood thinners, so those who take them may want to consult a medical professional before use (10Trusted Source).
SUMMARY
Red ginseng may boost libido and enhance erectile function, though more research is needed.
4. Fenugreek
Fenugreek is a popular herb in alternative medicine that may help enhance libido and improve sexual function.
It contains compounds that your body may use to produce sex hormones, such as estrogen and testosterone (16Trusted Source, 17Trusted Source).
A 6-week study in 30 men found that supplementing with 600 mg of fenugreek extract daily increased strength and improved sexual function (18Trusted Source).
Similarly, an 8-week study in 80 women with low libido determined that taking 600 mg of fenugreek daily significantly improved sexual arousal and desire, compared with the placebo group (19Trusted Source).
That said, very few human studies have examined fenugreek and libido, so more research is needed.
In addition, this herb interacts with blood-thinning medications, such as warfarin. If you’re on a blood thinner, you should speak with your medical practitioner before taking fenugreek (20Trusted Source).
