Enhancement Advice Blog

So we’ve talked about some male enhancement foods that have aphrodisiac-like effects such as watermelon, pomegranate, fish and oysters etc. but we have yet to mention a particular male enhancement vegetable. 

Actually, this vegetable is labeled “Vegetable Viagra.”  

And the veggie is…good old celery. 

According to the book, Stay Young: Ten Proven Steps to Ultimate Health written by authors Judy Gaman, Dr. Walter Gaman and Dr. Mark Anderson, celery significantly increases pheromone secretion. 

Pheromones are the chemicals secreted by the body which trigger a social response, or to put it more bluntly, the signal that tells us … it’s mating time! 

Celery contains a naturally occurring steroid called androstenone which is found in both female and male sweat – consider it the “scent of love.” 

Apparently the effects of eating celery are supposed to be immediate.  “We recommend that a guy work out, have a nice warm shower, chomp on a few sticks of celery, brush his teeth and then head out the door smelling good,” said Dr. Gaman.

Men, here’s another good reason why you should eat celery:  it heightens your sex drive and increases your amount of semen during ejaculation.  This will make your climaxes feel much more intense. 

Hmm … maybe this is another male enhancement ingredient we should keep our eyes on.

Care for some celery gentlemen?

Okay Guys, we’ll continue to praise the benefits of natural male enhancement over prescription drugs.

Now we’ve just discovered that there’s another good male enhancement food that can help give you rock-hard erections.

And the food is…Pomegranate.

As you know, 40 per cent of men over the age of 40 encounter issues with achieving erections substantial enough for sexual activity.  According to the International Journal of Impotence Research, pomegranate juice shows promise in helping men who are experiencing erectile difficulties.  The journal reported the effects of a study conducted on 61 men who experienced male impotence.  Some men were given 100 %  Pomegranate Juice while others were given a placebo.  Forty seven per cent of the participants reported improvement in their erections after one month of drinking 8 oz of pomegranate juice daily.

Pomegranate juice is a rich source of vitamin C, vitamin B5, potassium and it is also a powerful antioxidant.  Because of its powerful anti oxidizing properties, pomegranate can help reduce plaque in the arteries which as a result improves blood flow (particularly in the genital area).

 So guys don’t be surprised if this will be one ingredient added to the male enhancement list of ‘must haves.’

 Care for some pomegranate anyone?

There is another magic ingredient used in natural male enhancement supplements that can reduce stress and increase sperm count. 

Like many of the other natural ingredients we’ve discussed, this ingredient has been in use for centuries because of its aphrodisiac effects.  In fact more and more male enhancement products are including this ingredient in their formulation. 

Mucuna Pruriens have long been used in Ayurvedic (traditional Indian) and Chinese medicine to help with various ailments in addition to sexual dysfunction.  

What are Mucuna Pruriens? 

Mucuna Pruriens are a member of the legume family and is a native plant grown in India, Africa and the Caribbean.  The plant grows as an annual shrub whose branches can reach up to 15 meters in length.  In its young stages the plant is completely covered with hair but as it grows older the hairs disappear.  Each plant has pods which store the beans.  The beans are either black or brown in colour. 

Mucuna Pruriens mechanism of action is to help the body release dopamine (a neurotransmitter in the brain).  Dopamine is responsible for the proper function of the nervous system, a person’s emotions, sexual health and the body’s mobility.  High levels of dopamine cause the “feel good” response whereas low levels of dopamine can cause irritability, anxiety and sexual dysfunction. 

Scientists from around the world are beginning to recognize the health benefits that Mucuna Pruriens has on a number of conditions ranging from Parkinson’s disease, infertility and sexual dysfunction. 

So guys, here is one other ingredient to add to the list if you’re looking for a good male enhancer.

Enhancementadvice.com was curious to know which countries in the world were having the most sex.  

These top 10 findings are based on the Durex survey of 2007-2008: 

10.  Mexico.  In 2008 the Mexico City government distributed 700,000 copies of sex-ed textbooks to students knowing full well that the young citizens would be having active sex lives. 

9.  Switzerland.  Not a surprise since prostitution is completely legal in Switzerland and over 300,000 men are eager to spend their money on sex. 

8.  Spain.  Spain has always been known as one of the world’s most romantic … okay let’s be honest, horny countries.  Furthermore, men in the country have no qualms about taking Viagra to please their lovers longer.  

7.  Malaysia.  It’s far from a coincidence that most of the good male enhancement ingredients are found in Malaysia.  In fact, Tongkat Ali (a powerful ingredient used in male enhancers) is now considered an endangered species.  No wonder many Malaysian men are able to father children past their 60s. 

6.  Italy.  A survey reported that over 32% of Italy is having sex past the age of 60 on a regular basis.  To add, Italians are also leaders in frequency where sex is concerned.  

5.  Poland.  Being 5th among the world’s horniest countries might make Pope John Paul II turn over in his grave.  Furthermore, Poland also hosts one of the world’s largest sex events annually, Eroticon. 

4.  China.  Not surprising since it is one of the country’s in the world that has one of the highest populations.  Many male enhancement products and sex toys are manufactured in China and are purchased from people all over the world. 

3.  Russia.  The country’s bars and clubs are not only known for providing great Vodka but for also being good pick-up spots where men and women often “hook up.”

2.  Brazil.  Forget about the itsy bitsy bikini – the thong originated from Brazil so perhaps this is no coincidence that it’s a runner up in the horndog category.  Furthermore, a lot of the herbs used in male enhancement supplements are grown in Brazil. 

1.  Greece.  The word “aphrodisiac” is named after Aphrodite, the Greek goddess of love.  Stories and legends about homosexual, bisexual and lesbian relationships can be traced far back to ancient Greek times – no wonder they’re the top of the list!  On top of that, their tasty but healthy Mediterranean-like / aphrodisiac-food diet coupled with Greece’s beautiful beaches can put almost anyone in the mood for sex.

Enhancementadvice.com has heard about yet another male enhancement ingredient that seems to be popping up in many natural supplements. 

Actually, like many of the ingredients we’ve previously mentioned, this ingredient has been used for centuries in Chinese medicine.

 And the magic ingredient is…deer antler. 

What is deer antler? 

Well, deer antlers are the large bony horns that protrude from various species of deer which include elk, moose, caribou (reindeer) and others.  Dating back some 2,000 years, deer antlers have been used as medicine, tools and toys. 

As for its medicinal properties deer antlers contain a good supply of amino acids and prostaglandins.  Deer antler is known for: 

• Boosting testosterone
• Reversing inflammation
• Boosting immune system function
• And reducing the risk of cancer
• Fighting the aging process
• Improving blood circulation 

In case some of you are wondering whether the deer are harmed during the antler collection process the answer is no.  Veterinarians give the animals (male deers) a sedative when collecting the antlers and deer antlers re-grow and are shed annually after mating season.  

After collection, the antlers are then dried and used in powder or tea in many health products, which of course includes natural male enhancement formulas.  In fact, a lot of health food stores carry deer antler and it’s available in capsule form. 

So far, there have been no reported side effects from deer antler use, though it’s always best to consult with your doctor before taking any health supplement. 

All in all, deer antler just may be another ingredient to keep your eyes on.
