Natural Remedies For Erectile Dysfunction
Erectile dysfunction (ED) is the incapacity to get and keep an erection firm sufficiently for sex. Having an erection problem from time to time isn’t necessarily a cause for concern.
52% of men between the ages of 40 and 70 have experienced erection problems at some point. However, erectile dysfunction is not an inevitable part of aging and can be treated at any age.

Natural treatments, urban legend?
When we start to have erection problems, the normal reaction today is to look for help on “Dr. Google” and once we start browsing the “natural remedies” appear. Supposed magical herbs from remote places promise us to restore vigor without the “risks” of drugs.
Is it true that there are natural remedies for male impotence?
The truth is that there are certain substances in nature that fundamentally favor blood flow, others that increase our blood pressure, and many that relax the blood vessels that are responsible for erections.
In short, there are substances that can promote erection or its quality as long as we do not have a disease that causes erectile dysfunction.
Is it safe to take those natural remedies?
We do not recommend that you take them without medical supervision. Natural remedies have active substances that can interfere with other medications, cause high or low blood pressure, insomnia, nausea, and all kinds of completely unknown and unexpected side effects.
The most dangerous part is the interaction with other medications that we can take, such as sildenafil itself (l-arginine), oral antidiabetics or insulin (cinnamon), or medications to make the blood more fluid such as sintron or aspirin (ginkgo).
Never take products that you do not know what they can do to your body or how they can affect you without a doctor’s prescription.
