Jakarta –
Difficulty getting or maintaining an erection is the most common sexual health problem experienced by men. To combat this, many men turn to drugs such as Viagra to help them stay fit.
However, these drugs often have side effects such as headaches, nasal congestion, and indigestion, which causes many people to look for natural alternatives.
Quoted from several sources, here are natural supplements that can help get or maintain an erection during sex.
1. Bit
Studies show that consuming beet juice can increase levels of nitric oxide (NO), a compound that triggers muscle relaxation, which allows for increased blood flow to the penis. Increased NO can also increase stamina so that it helps last longer during sex.
In addition, beet juice can also lower blood pressure. This is useful because those with high blood pressure are twice as likely to experience erectile dysfunction.
2. Red Ginseng
Red ginseng is a root that can be used to treat erectile dysfunction in traditional Chinese medicine. Modern research and small studies show that men who take red ginseng may have a stronger sex drive and fewer erectile problems.
3. Maca
Maca is a sweet root vegetable with several health benefits. In South America, people usually use this to increase fertility. The nickname of this plant is ‘Peruvian Viagra’. Four studies show that consuming this can increase libido.
4. Pistachio Nuts
Pistachio nuts have been eaten since 6,000 BC. These nuts have nutritional value and are rich in protein, fiber and healthy fats. Pistachios are believed to help reduce symptoms of erectile dysfunction. Experts suggest that this effect may be due to the ability of pistachios to increase blood cholesterol and stimulate better blood flow throughout the body.
5. Ginkgo Biloba
Ginkgo biloba is a herbal supplement that comes from one of the oldest tree species, the Ginkgo biloba tree. Traditional Chinese medicine uses it to treat many ailments, including poor sexual function.
Ginkgo biloba acts as an aphrodisiac by helping relax blood vessels and increase blood flow. However, ginkgo biloba can act as a blood thinner, so it’s a good idea to consult a doctor before consuming this.
