Thursday, April 2nd, 2009 Subscribe To Our Feed
Yohimbe is an evergreen in the Rubiaceae family that grows naturally in western Africa. Yohimbe bark has been used as a sexual enhancer in western Africa for many years.
The active ingredient that enhances sexual performance is called yohimbine hydrocholoride. Scientific studies have shown that yohimbine can enhance erections in men and may enhance sexual response in women. The concentration of this chemical is not the same in every batch of extract. Sometimes it is very low.
Purchasing the natural product from a reputable supplier is important. Natural yohimbe extract is sold in many health food stores and herbal shops, but you can get high quality at a good price by shopping online. Yohimbe is frequently sold in capsule form, and it can also be prepared as a tea.
This natural product can give your natural talent a boost so you can enjoy greater passion with your partner, especially if you plan ahead and acquire an entertaining variety of lubricants and massage oils.
The best medical information on stimulation of sexual activity with yohimbe comes from studies of the pure active ingredient. There are no good clinical studies of natural bark extract to guide choosing the best dose. In experiments conducted with yohimbine hydrochloride, doses were typically 5 milligrams to 10 milligrams taken three times per day. You should start by following the manufacturer’s recommended dose when you begin using the natural extract product.
Even if you are in perfect health, start with low doses. Don’t be impatient to raise the dose because some scientific data suggests that yohimbe is more effective at low doses than at high doses. In addition, in a clinical trial of the active ingredient of yohimbe, a higher dose was not more effective than a lower dose in resolving problems with impotence. In thinking about dose, remember that more may not be better, and it might take a few weeks to see positive results.
The active ingredient in yohimbe bark, yohimbine hydrochloride, can cause dizziness in some people, so do not take the supplement and drive or operate machinery. Also, be cautious when standing up quickly from a sitting or lying position. You should talk with your doctor before trying yohimbe extract if you have blood pressure problems or any type of heart disease. You should also consult a medical professional before using yohimbe if you have kidney disease, stomach ulcers, or have any type of depression or psychiatric disorder. As always, pregnant women should be very careful about using any unnecessary herb or medication.
