Damiana =Turnera diffusa

Also known as Turnera diffusa, Damiana is a low-growing plant with yellow flowers and fragrant leaves. It’s native to the subtropical climates of southern Texas, Mexico, Central and South America, and the Caribbean. It’s been used as a medicine since the Mayans walked the earth. Damiana has been used for centuries as an aphrodisiac and bladder tonic because it promotes oxygen supply and increases blood flow and nerve impulses to your penis. This is a VERY good thing.

Epimedium leaf extract = Horny Goat Weed

Also called “Horny Goat Weed” for good reason. Epimedium is a plant that comes from the botanical family, “Berberidaceae.” The Epimedium plant is said to contain certain chemical compounds, otherwise known as flavonoids that have antioxidant properties. It also contains phytoestrogens, which have effects similar to estrogen. This phytoestrogen, known as epimedium icariin, blocks an enzyme in the body using a natural pathway. Epimedium icariin aids the body in the transport of nitric oxide that encourages your body to increase the production of testosterone.

asian Red Ginseng

Once again our ancestors got some things exactly right. Ginseng has been around for thousands of years. In fact, it was first recorded as an aphrodisiac back in 3500 BC by China’s Emperor, Shen-Nung. He is also considered to be “the father of Chinese medicine.” Shen-Nung is quoted as saying he got a “warm and sexually pleasurable feeling” when taking Ginseng.

Muira Pauma Bark extract

Believe it or not, Muira Pauma is also known as the “erection root.” This extract has been used by the tribes in Brazil for thousands of years, especially for its aphrodisiac qualities. In 1994, Dr. Jacques Waynberg conducted a study on 262 men suffering from this type of problem, and the results were clear. Within just two weeks of use, a whopping 62% of the men reported the extract was having “a dynamic effect.” Also, a full 51% of the men said the herb was beneficial to their libido and desire.

Hawthorn berries

Hawthorn berries have some vital properties to contribute to your improved sexual health. They’re incredibly beneficial to cardiovascular health by strengthening blood vessels, lowering cholesterol levels, and even supporting the heart muscle itself. They’re filled with antioxidants and bioflavonoids, which help stimulate blood flow to the penis and help maintain and prolong erections.

Catuaba Bark extract

Once again we head down to South America in search of another herb. Catuaba is indigenous to Brazil and Peru and the men there use it to increase sexual desire and appetite. It contains three alkaloids called “catuabine A, B and C.” They work within the nervous system to reduce fatigue, encourage better sleep and eliminate nervousness, all of which enhances sexual function.

Saw palmetto

Saw palmetto is a fan palm native to North America, primarily located near the Eastern Gulf coasts. The hormonal impact of saw palmetto primarily affects testosterone pathways. People have used it for hundreds of years as a treatment for sexual inadequacies. Even though we still don’t completely understand exactly how it works, the evidence over time makes it another powerful player in the formulation of VigRX Plus.

Ginkgo Biloba

Another well known ancient Chinese herb, Ginkgo Biloba has strong antioxidant properties. Also, it enhances the function of nerve cells by increasing blood flow to the brain and nervous system. This blood flow enhancement helps increase the quality of your erection. In fact, The National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine has said using Ginkgo Biloba can help fight issues in the bedroom.

Bioperine

Throughout history, black pepper, also called the king of spices, has appeared in many traditional herbal medicines. In modern times, we’ve discovered that Piperine, the pungent component of black pepper, has a dramatic effect on how your body reacts to other herbs and spices. Specifically, Piperine and its patented cousin, Bioperine help your body absorb vital nutrients and minerals far more efficiently. By adding Bioperine to this already potent cocktail of sexually enhancing herbs and compounds, your body will process up to 40% more of it. This gives you the long term boost to regain your sexual prowess and stamina.
