Yohimbe

Yohimbe, as mentioned, is extracted from the bark of an African tree. Its main use is for treating impotency because it has been shown to be effective in increasing blood flow to the penis. When the blood vessels are dilated and more blood flows, an erection can become fuller and firmer. This can help men with erectile dysfunction as well as assist those that are experiencing weak erections. Yohimbe may also help increase libido and has been shown to improve erection quality in men suffering from diabetes or who have been on antidepressants.

Additionally, Yohimbe is found in weight loss products because it has been shown to have stimulating effects – when the heart rate is increased, more fat can be burned. It is thought to increase strength and stamina as well, and has been used by athletes for its benefits. It has also been used to help aid in the control blood pressure.

As mentioned, the use of Yohimbe is somewhat controversial; there have been side effects associated with the herb such as impacting the kidneys negatively, possibly enlarging the prostate and affecting the balance of neurotransmitters that impact emotional status. The most major claim is that it affects the central nervous system.

While the basis for the claims against the use of Yohimbe, are known, there are no well-documented scientific studies showing its effectiveness, there also does not seem to be any scientific studies documenting its negative impact however.

For men experiencing symptoms of impotency, such as an inability to get or maintain an erection or a loss of sexual desire, using products that contain Yohimbe may be a beneficial way to treat the condition.

Research has suggested, however, that Yohimbe may play a role in relieving symptoms of erectile dysfunction, so despite the interaction with neurotransmitters, it may still be effective.

Yohimbe is recognized by the FDA and is often used by some to treat impotency in the United States; it has been shown to improve erection quality by increasing peripheral blood flow and has other benefits as well. For men seeking an herbal alternative for treatment, products are available that contain this herb as well as other high quality aphrodisiacs and herbs for increasing testosterone production. When contained in the most synergistic blend of herbs, the benefits are even heightened.
