Most people don't know it, but male dysfunction drugs like Viagra, Cialis and Levitra have side effects. Think hard about taking these drugs after you discover these side effects below. These are side effects for just Viagra.
It's no secret that over 30 million men in the United States alone suffer from erectile dysfunction, and 1 in 10 men in the world suffer from erectile dysfunction. This is why large pharmaceutical companies like Pfizer can advertise their product on almost any channel.
As you already know, Sildenafil can cause unwanted side effects in its users. Some common side effects include headaches, sneezing, dyspepsia (abdominal pain), palpitations (extreme heart beating, just like what you get from drinking too much coffee), flushing (red face, even more red than blushing) and some less common side effects include:
* Abnormally low blood pressure
* Intraocular pressure (Hard pressure in the eyes)
* Priapism (A painful condition when an erection for more than 4 hours)
* Severe increased heart beat rhythm (Ventricular tachycardia which can lead to sudden death)
* Stroke
* Heart attack
This is why thousands of men are finding alternative treatments to fixing erectile dysfunction.
One method that can help is regular exercise. Any form of physical exercise, both aerobic and anaerobic will help your body maintain an increased level of blood circulation. A significant number of impotence patients suffer from the condition because their bodies cannot maintain enough blood circulation.
So What's the Better Alternative to Erectile Dysfunction Drugs?
The answer is natural supplements. Many regular Viagra, Cialis and Levitra users are turning to natural alternatives that do not cause side effects.
But do these really work, or are they just another fad?
The most common ingredients you'll see in herbal supplements for erectile dysfunction are Saw Palmetto extract, Gingko Biloba extract, Muira puama extract, and Guarana seed, Epimedium, Maca and L-Arginine.
Saw palmetto is used in baldness treatments to counter estrogen (female hormone) production. It is known for its testosterone boosting and sperm volume increasing properties.
Gingko biloba has been to known to increase blood flow in the body, by increasing red blood cell activity. Chemical drugs like Viagra work in a similar manner - by increasing blood flow to the body.
L-Arginine is an amino acid commonly found in whey protein supplements that have been known to improve male libido.
Guarana seed is the natural stimulant you see in almost every energy drink today. It has been to raise energy levels and stamina up by boosting circulation. Guarana seed itself contains a small amount of Caffeine, which adds to this energy boosting effect.
Maca has been shown to improve semen quality and heighten sex drive. Although it has not been shown to affect sexual hormone levels in humans, it has shown to increase mating activity in mice and rats.
Also known as Horny Goat Weed, Epimedium is infamous for its ability to boost erectile function by promoting better blood flow.
As you can tell, fixing erectile dysfunction is all about increasing blood circulation. Having multiple ingredients at the same time increasing overall blood flow is one of the most effective ways to enhance erectile function.
