W
hen former Senator Bob Dole
spoke frankly about his bout with
erectile dysfunction, he signaled
the emergence of the newest rage in
America—use of sexual potency pills. And
while their use is not a total solution for
men’s erectile dysfunction, the issue of
sexual vitality has certainly been put into the
limelight.
While some men, like the senator, have
chosen to use medically prescribed potency
pills or other devices, other men have taken
a more natural approach such as Whitewing
Labs’ herbal combination Sexhilarate.
®
Herbal prosexuals, such as Sexhilarate,
employ some of the oldest natural remedies
for both sexual dysfunction and
enhancement. Traditionally, herbalists treat
sexual problems such as an occasional
inability to perform or reduced desire by
improving adrenal energy, muscle strength
and endurance with herbs that increase
vitality and immunity, note experts.
To take a page from Traditional Chinese
Medicine, herbal adrenal tonic herbs are
often combined with moistening or blood-
building herbs that reduce stress and
increase sexual fluids.
“Tonifying herbal combinations are not
aphrodisiacs; they do not directly arouse
sexual desire,” says one expert. “They make
sexual activity and enthusiasm possible by
fortifying natural vitality.”
Premiere Sexual Fortifying Herb
O
ne of the best herbs for enhancing
endurance and vitality to the male
sex drive is ginseng,an essential
ingredient found in Sexhilarate.
Not only
is ginseng adept at fighting fatigue and
helping the body to cope with stress, it has
been shown to induce production of nitric
oxide. Although nitric oxide lasts
only
milliseconds once formed in the body, this
important neurotransmitter activates an
enzyme that relaxes smooth muscle tissue in
the area of the corpus cavernosum, which
may enable the blood vessels in the area of
the penis to become engorged, causing an
erection. Fortunately, ginseng also tonifies
the adrenal glands, providing overall
support. This is a much better support than
simply relying on a potency pill.
Ginseng even has the blessing of
mainstream nutritional groups, which is not
surprising since its ability to induce nitric
oxide synthesis was discovered at Yale
University. Meanwhile, according to a
leading public interest research group,
“There is some evidence that the traditional
Asian aphrodisiac may generate more nitric
oxide from arginine, which could
lead to
increased blood flow and arousal.”
In fact, in one study, 30 men with
erectile dysfunction who took ginseng every
day for three months were more likely to
report greater sexual desire and erectile
function than 30 similar
men who took a placebo.
Most herbalists
recommend that ginseng
be combined with Ginkgo
biloba and damiana folia,as
Whitewing Labs’ has
done in Sexhilarate.
Ginkgo stimulates blood
flow throughout the
body, especially to the
extremities. This not
only enhances erections
but improves sensation.
Although the libido-
boosting power of
damiana hasn’t been tested in human clinical
trials, a liquor made from the leaves of this
shrub which is native to Latin America has
long been used as an aphrodisiac in Mexico.
According to the public interest group, “In
animal studies, extracts of damiana speeded
up the mating behavior of ‘sexually
sluggish’ or impotent male rats.”
Importance of Zinc
Z
incis also important to healthy
sexual function, notes the public
interest group. “Zinc is essential for
normal sexual development during male
adolescence and for producing healthy
sperm.” In one study men given zinc
“reported improved potency.” Traditionally,
men with sex problems have been told to
munch pumpkin seeds. That is partly
because pumpkin seeds are an excellent
source of zinc, long recommended for
healthy potency and fertility, as a BPH
remedy, and for helping men to maintain
optimal levels of circulating testosterone.
Even moderate zinc deficiencies can result
in low sexual desire and low sperm counts.
Oral zinc therapy benefits sperm motility. It
also increases seminal fluid zinc
concentrations, testosterone levels, and
seminal volume. Infertile men are
sometimes able to become fertile after
supplementing with zinc. Zinc also helps
the immune system.
The Doctor’s Recommendation
T
he key for enhanced sexual well-
being is to get the blood flowing and
support men’s energy levels.
Sexhilarate
works on this principle,
supporting blood flow to the genitalia while
increasing vitality. Before men resort to
potency pills with their potential side effects,
Sexhilarateshould be their first choice.
The combination of herbs and nutrients
in Sexhilarateis time-tested to
help men to
enjoy their sexual prowess. Order alone or

and nutrients such

damiana, and zinc,
