Damiana extract
Damiana is a small shrub native to the American Southwest, Mexico and the West indies. It was used bythe Mayans and Aztecs as a sexual stimulant and' to treat respiratory disorders. Some people smoke Damiana in a water pipe as a prelude to lovemaking. It was also burned ceremoniously to enable participants to "see visions". Damiana has been used forthousands of years in Latin American cuItures ritualistically as a sexual stimulant. Growing in dry, rocky climates, Damiana is a shrub with small yellow flowers that is generally found in the southwestern regional areas of Mexico, California and Texas. Considered to be an over aII body tonic, Damiana is no longer considered a herb just for men, but may be used for a variety of ailments for both men and women.
Damiana affects the nervous system acting as an anti-depressant, soothing
anxiety, nervousness and mild depression, promoting the general feeling of well-being. Damiana also stimulates the circulation of the body consequently raising energy levels to alleviate fatigue and stimulate weight loss. Other known uses for Damiana are as a mild laxative useful for relieving constipation, soothing headaches caused by menstruation, and thinning fluids resulting from asthma, colds and flu. Most research has been done on the essential oil of Damiana, which includes numerous small, fragrant substances called terpenes. As yet, it is unclear if the essential oil is truly the main active fraction of Damiana.
The leaves also contain the anti-microbial substance arbutin, some alkaloids, and other potentially important compounds. It has also been used for such conditions as depression (as it is a pleasant mood enhancer that leaves many people with a feeling of happiness and well—being), anxiety, sexual inadequacy, debilitation, bed-wetting, amenorrhea, gastric ulcers, and constipation.
Damiana contains substances called terpenes, beta-sitoserol, arbutin, alkaloidsand various aromatic oils that have a stimulant effect on the sexual apparatus andhelp to build sexual health and reproductivity. These nutrients work to restore and enhance sexual functions by increasing blood flow to the organs and for overall health ofthe sexual reproductive system. Damiana also works as a tonic for nervous or sexual debility.

Sexual stimulant
It is currently confirmed that Damiana enhances sexual performance. Damiana, in its historical uses was that of a sex stimulator, increasing sex drive or aphrodisiac. Ancient Mexican Indian cuItures used Damiana as an aphrodisiac and it was also used for asthma, bronchitis, neurosis, diabetes, dysentery, dysmenorrhea, dyspepsia, headaches, paralysis, nephrosis, spermatorrhea, stomachache and syphilis. The leaves are used in Germany to relieve excess mental activity and nervous debility, and as a tonic forthe hormonal and central nervous systems.
Other reports state that Damiana was used historically for frigidity in women and impotence in men. The action of this herb is reported to increase the output of the male hormone testosterone. Interestingly, historical uses of Damiana also included women who were suffering from hormone-related deficiencies such as menopause and hot flashes.
Dr. James Balch reports in his book Prescription for Nutritional Healing that Damiana "relieves headaches, controls bed-wetting, and stimulates muscular contractions of the intestinal tract" He also comments that damiana interferes with iron absorption when taken internally. 3 or 4 grams of powdered leaf consumed twice daily (in tea, in capsules or otherwise) is a recommended means of manifesting damiana's aphrodisiac qualities.
E. F. Steinmetz states that in Holland, damiana is renowned for its sexual enhancing qualities and its positive effects on the reproductive organs. The British Herbal Pharmacopoeia cites indications for the use of damiana in anxiety neurosis with a predominant sexual factor, depression, nervous dyspepsia, atonic constipation, and coital inadequacy.
U.S. patent was awarded for a herbal combination for females, with inventorsreporting that damiana could relieve anxiety, depression, and headaches during menstruation, and exhaustion. Damiana also helps to balance female hormone levels and control hot flashes?
Neural system
Datiana is a valuable strengthening remedy forthe nervous and hormonal system. In particular, it has a stimulating and enhancing action on those functions related to the male reproductive system, especially where there is sexual inadequacy with a strong psychological or emotional element. The alkaloids are thought to have a testosteronal effect; that is why it is used as an anti-depressant in cases of anxiety and depression where there is a sexual factor. Some claim that drunk as a tea it hasrelaxing effect. It is of benefit in any debilitated condition of the central nervous system from anxiety and depression to neuralgia; and is used to contain genital herpes.
Saw Palmetto
Saw palmetto is a small, fan-shaped palm that grows along the South Atlantic coast ofthe United States. Seminole Indians once enjoyed its berries as an important part of their diet. About 50 years ago, researchers discovered the berries had medicinal value and started using them to treat urinary problems.
In the Indian medicine, Saw Palmetto was used to treat atrophy of the testes, impotence, inflammation of the prostate, as they increase the bladder's ability to contract and expel its contents, low libido in men, and as a general tonic to nourish the body. Other historical uses have included the treatment of infertility in women, treatment of underdeveloped breasts, increased lactation, painful menstruation cycles, anti-inflammatory, appetite stimulant, and as a tonic and expectorant for mucous membranes, particularlythe bronchial passages.
Also, Saw Palmetto berries have been used to treat many different disorders of the uro-genital system. Saw Palmetto is a specific in all formulas for male impotence, sterility, reproductive problems and to reduce inflammation and swelling of the prostrate. Saw Palmetto is a urethra toning herb that increases blood flow to the sexual organs. Diseases of both male and female reproductive organs have been helped by Saw Palmetto.
Reliving prostate complaints & irritable bladder
Saw palmetto contains certain phytosterols substances that seem to curb prostate cell growth, its action in the body is probably similar to that of finasteride and other drugs. Studies have reviewed 18 clinical trials of saw palmetto; it improved urinary tract symptoms, including nighttime urination, by about 25%. Men taking saw palmetto were twice as likely to report improvements as those taking a placebo. In Germany, other studies have tended to support the effectiveness of saw palmetto.
Results like these led the United States Pnamacopoeia (USP) to conclude Iast Aprilthat there is "moderate evidence of effectvaries' for saw palmetto in men with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). USP is a coast- governmental agency that sets manufacturing standards for drugs and advises health professionals on their appropriate use. The problem of a swollen prostate gland or benign prostatic hyper- trophy (BPH) plagues one out of every two men over me age of 80. lf the enlarged gland presses against the urethra, the tube that carries urine from the bladder out of the body, the simple act of urinating can become difficuIt.
Surgery can open up the flow, but because the prostate is surrounded by nerves, patients run the risk of incontinence or impotence. Prescription drugs provide some relief for some men, but with the risk of diminished sex drive (Proscar) or dizziness (Hytrin). And there's no good evidence that changing your dietwill help.
Today saw palmetto is widely used in Europe as an aIternative to conventional
treatment for BPH, non-cancerous enlargement of the prostate gland, a condition that affects half of all men over age 50. The prostate is a small, donut-shaped gland that surrounds the neck of the bladder and urethra in men. As the gland swells, it pinches the urethra, making it hard to urinate, Men with this condition need to urinate frequently and urgently but often find it difficuIt and painful to do so. A government review of 18 studies involving 2939 men published in the November, 1998 issue of the Journal of American Medicine concluded that saw palmetto was effective as a prescription drug in improving the symptoms of BPH.
The active ingredients are fatty acids found in the fat portion of saw palmetto berries. These substances don't actually shrink the prostate gland, but they seem to reduce inflammation and prevent or slow the growth of new prostate cells. In men with BPH, saw palmetto berry extract seems to have effects similar to the prescription drug but without side effects like decreased libido, ejaculatory problems, and loss of erection.

Muira puama extract
Muira puama, also called "potency wood"; is a small tree that grows up to 5m high and is native tothe Brazilian Amaion and other parts of the Amazon rainforest. The small, white flowers have a pungent fragrance similarto jasmines.
Historically, all parts of muira puama nave been used medicinally, but the bark and roots are the most-utilized parts of the plant. It has been used in the Amazon by indigenous people for a number of purposes. Native people along the Brazilian Amazon use the stems and roots from young plants as a tonic to treat neuromuscular problems; a root decoction is used in baths and massages for treating paralysis, and a root-and-bark tea is taken to treat sexual debility, rheumatism, grippe, and cardiac and gastrointestinal asthenia. It's also valued there as a preventive for baldness, in Brazilianherbal medicine, muira puama still is a highly-regarded sexual stimulant with a reputation as a powerful aphrodisiac. It has been in the Brazilian Pharmacopoea since the 1950s. If is used as a neuromuscular tonic for asthenia and paralysis, dyspepsia, menstrual disturbances, chronic rheumatism, sexual importance grippe, ataxia, and central nervous system disorders.
Muira puama is employed around the world today in herbal medicine. Early
European explorers noted the indigenous uses and the aphrodisiac quantities of muira puama and brought it back to Europe, where it has become cart c‘ herbal medicine in England. It is still listed inthe British Herbal Pharmacopoeia; it is also used in Europe to treat impotence, infertility, neurasthenia, menstrual disturbances and dysentery.
Neural system
In Germany, muira puama is employed as a central nervous system tonic for
hookworms, menstrual disturbances, and rheumatism. Muira puama has been
gaining in popularity in the United States, where herbalists and health care practitioners are using itfor impotence, depression, menstrual cramps and PMS, neurasthenia, and central nervous system disorders:
Scientists began searching forthe source of muira puama's efficacy in the 1920s. Early researchers discovered that the root and bark were rich in fatty acids and fatty acid esters, essential oils, plant sterols, triterpenes, and a new alkaloid which they named muirapuamine. Scientists resumed researching the plant's constituents and pharmacological properties in the late 1960s and continued into the late 1980s.These studies indicated that the active constituents also included free Iong-chainfatty acids, sesquiterpenes, monoterpenes, and novel alkaloids.
Sexual stimulant
In one of the studies, researchers indicated that muira puama was effective in
treating disorders of the nervous system and sexual impotence, and that permanent effect is produced in locomotor ataxia, neuralgias of long standing, chronic rheumatism, and partial paralysis. In 1930, Meiro Penna wrote about muira puama in his book Notas Sobre Plantas Brasilerias. He cited physiological and therapeutic experiments conducted in France by Dr. Rebourgeon that confirmed the efficacy of the plant for "gastrointestinal and circulatory asthenia and impotency of the genital organs."
The benefits of treating impotence with muira puama have been studied in two
human trials in France, which reported that muira puama was effective in improving libido and treating erectile dysfunction. in Paris, France, study among 262 male patients who experienced lack of sexual desire and the inability to attain or maintain an erection; 62% of the patients with loss of libido reported that the extract of muira puama "had a dynamic effect", and 51 % of patient with erectile dysfunction feIt that muira puama was beneficial.
The second study evaluated positive psychological benefits of muira puama in 100 men with male sexual asthenia. The therapeutic dosage was 1.5 g of a muira puama extract daily. In their final report, researchers indicated muira puama could enhance libido, increase the frequency of intercourse and improve the ability to maintain an erection.
Restore stamina
In other recent clinical research, muira puama extracts have been reported to have in vivo adaptogenic,anti-fatigue, anti-stress and CNS effects in humans and animals. A specially prepared extract from the root of muira puama has been patented for its ability to 'relieve physical and mental fatigue" and for "ameiiorating a weakened constitution.' Researchers in Brazil documented a definite CNS effect of the bark in studies with mice.
The bark of muira puama also has demonstrated a mild, short—lived, hypotensive effect. The root was found to inhibit stress-induced ulcers, while the leaf demonstrated analgesic effect. Another U.S. patent has been tiled on muira puama citing that it can reduce body fat percentage, increase lean muscle mass and lower cholesterol" in humans and animals long-term use (and with no toxicity noted). Toxicity studies with mice also indicated no toxic effects.
While so-called aphrodisiacs have come and gone in history, Muira puama has retained its stature and may as well provide one of the more effective naturaltherapeutic approaches for erectile function and libido enhancement. Before trying to self-treat, however, men should always seek the advice of a health practitioner (if erectile dysfunction or impotency is a problem); this often can be an early warning of vascularinsufficiency and/or heart conditions.
