Arginine can also be converted to glucose and glycogen if needed by the body, or it can be broken down to produce biological energy. So, as you can tell, arginine plays a lot of roles in your body.
But what’s most beneficial about arginine is its impact on the reproductive system. Arginine is well-established in the research arena as being a key factor in preventing male impotence. What’s more, some studies have demonstrated that arginine increases sperm count and motility, leading to more pregnancies that may otherwise not have happened.
The treatment of oligospermia (low sperm count and/or quality) with arginine was first reported many years ago. In one of these early studies, 178 men with oligospermia were given 4 grams of arginine daily. Severe oligospermia was diagnosed in 93 of these subjects. Treatment ceased in subjects who showed no improvement after two months. A 100 percent increase in sperm count was achieved in 42 cases, resulting in 15 pregnancies. An increase in sperm number and motility was noted in an additional 69 patients, which resulted in another 13 pregnancies.
Because an insufficient supply of nitric oxide can stop the penis from becoming erect, current studies support the use of arginine supplements to ensure that nitric oxide secretion is sufficient to keep blood flowing to the penis. A study published in 1994 showed a substantial improvement in the erectile function of men given 2.8 grams of arginine a day for two weeks. The researchers (at New York University School of Medicine) gave arginine to a group of impotent men, and discovered that six out of 15 men receiving the amino acid claimed an improved ability to achieve erections, while none of the 15 men in the placebo group reported any benefit.
The other ingredients found in BIG BLUE also participate in the nutrient’s aphrodisiac effects. And what’s extra special about these ingredients is that they come to us from Mother Nature, and all have been used for centuries among peoples from all corners of the globe who seek natural stimulants, protectors of health, and solutions to ailments. Current science is just beginning to catch up to understanding why these unique and ancient herbs and roots have had such a impact in the history of health medicine around the world. And one thing is certain: there is a wealth of products supplied by nature that relate to human arousal and sexual vigor, but have been under-appreciated by Western medicine. Now you can get the highest-quality combination of these products for maximal results.
Cayenne stimulates blood flow by strengthening the heart, capillaries, and nerves (an increase in blood flow is essential to arousal). It’s also a mild pain reliever that has been used as a medicine for centuries.
Muira puama is a Brazilian shrub with a long history in South American folk medicine as an aphrodisiac and sexual tonic for promoting virility and treating impotence. Chemically, muira puama is rich in free fatty acids, essential oil, plant sterols, beta-sitosterol and the alkaloid “muirapuamine. You may also see this shrub referred to as Potency Wood. Early European explorers were so enthused by the shrub that they returned to Europe with samples and reports that natives consumed the herb as a drink to enhance sexual desire prior to making love. Most interesting is the fact that it’s long history of use in England has kept it listed in the British Herbal Pharmacopoeia as a recommended treatment of dysentery and impotence.
Real human studies have emerged to back up the folklore surrounding the use of muira puama for improving libido and treating erectile dysfunction. In one study, conducted at the Institute of Sexology in Paris, under the supervision of Dr. Jacques Waynberg, 262 male patients experiencing lack of sexual desire and the inability to attain or maintain an erection were treated with 1 to 2.5 grams of muira puama extract a day. Following two weeks of treatment, 51 percent of those suffering from erectile dysfunction reported significant improvement. What’s more, 62 percent of the patients suffering from loss of libido reported that the muira puama extract had, in the words of the researchers, “a dynamic effect.
A second study among 100 men who complained of impotence, loss of libido and various sexual difficulties showed that 66 percent of the men had a significant increase in frequency of intercourse. Of 46 men complaining of loss of desire, 70 percent reported that treatment with muira puama increased libido. More than half reported improved or restored stability of their erection during intercourse. Other benefits reported included a reduction of fatigue, improved sleep, and increased morning erections. Clearly, muira puama packs a powerful punch from the natural world, providing more benefits than one.
Maca extract is another touted aphrodisiac that dates back to the Incan Empire of Latin American. Maca, a radish-like tuber that grows in high altitudes, is an important dietary staple because it’s rich in sugars, protein, starches, and essential minerals. While maca has traditionally been used as a Peruvian herbal medicine for a variety of reasons, from treating menopause symptoms and sterility to stimulating the immune system, its chemical components have been under study and point to having aphrodisiac activities. For example, a study of rats revealed that maca extracts significantly improved the sexual frequency and potency of the male mice. And if it can improve sexual frequency and potency in male mice, it can likely have a similar effect in male humans.
Horny goat weed sound peculiar, doesn’t it? What exactly is “horny goat weed”? Another ancient plant from at least 200 BC in China, horny goat weed may be responsible for many different kinds of sex-enhancing effects. It can increase production of sperm as well as increase the level of testosterone. Moreover, its effect on testosterone levels means it is directly related to sex drive. Testosterone is among the most important hormones that affect your sexual charge, so any herb that affects this hormone translates to a larger, more satisfying sex drive.
Sarsaparilla is yet another all-natural and ancient panacea with certain characteristics that make it special for enhancing your sexual experience. The root has been used for centuries in Central and South America for not only sexual impotence, but also rheumatism, skin ailments, and as a general remedy to restore, refresh, and rejuvenate the body. In particular, the tribes in Peru and Honduras have used sarsaparilla for a long time for headaches and joint pain, and as a defense against the common cold. Because of its properties that aid testosterone activity in the body, sarsaparilla is naturally linked to sexual function and libido.
According to The Healing Power of Rainforest Herbs, the main uses of sarsaparilla are abundant and impressive. In addition to being a blood purifier, general detoxification aid, stimulant, hormonal regulator, and general tonic, sarsaparilla has been used for centuries for the following ailments:
| psoriasis, dermatitis, leprosy, and other skin disorders; | |
| arthritis, rheumatism and autoimmune disorders which cause inflammation; and | |
| syphilis and other sexually transmitted diseases. |
Good trivia: Sarsaparilla was registered as an official herb in the U.S. Pharmacopoeia as a syphilis treatment from 1820 to 1910. The list of ailments for which this herb has been used is long. It also has been used for wounds, cough, hypertension, digestive disorders, fever, and cancer.
Ginseng is an herb you may already be familiar with. But you may not know that Asian populations have used ginseng for centuries to support sexual energy in older people. Some evidence shows that ginseng may generate more nitric oxide from arginine, which, as you know, leads to increased blood flow…and arousal. It’s enough to say that ginseng has been used by millions of people for 5,000 years and is the most important herb for men in traditional Chinese medicine. It can impart nothing but benefits to you and your body.
BIG BLUE’s Biggest Benefit of All
While ED drugs are effective for millions of men, for many, the side effects—headaches, facial flushing, and indigestion, among others—are too troublesome for continued enjoyment. And, more seriously, when taken with other medications, they can cause a sudden—and potentially deadly—drop in systolic and diastolic blood pressure. Women who experiment with these drugs can also experience harmful side effects.
Prescription drugs to treat ED are not for everyone. More than 700 men have died while using Viagra, for example, in the United States alone. But other side effects include a blue discoloration in front of the field of vision after taking the pill, digestive disturbances, headaches and other problems. These side-effects are not limited to men alone, either. Male or female, use of these drugs is not an option for anyone with certain health problems, such as those taking nitroglycerine, and those with other kinds of cardiovascular problems, any kind of cancer, or ulcers and other bleeding disorders.
It’s commonly understood that sexual satisfaction and performance declines in men with age. (We didn’t need the October 1995 Journal of the American Geriatrics Society to confirm this fact, although they did.) According to a study performed by the Mayo Clinic and based on information obtained from 2,115 men, ranging in age from 40 to 79 years, decreased satisfaction with sex could be accounted for by age-related increases in erectile dysfunction, decreased libido, and the interaction between erectile dysfunction and decreased libido. Similarly, women experience a shift in their sex lives as they age, which gets punctuated by menopause and its physical consequences, such as vaginal dryness. Undoubtedly, a great number of men and women want to remedy this situation as easily and healthfully as possible. While you cannot turn back the clock to your twenties, you can reach for a supplement that can help ease these downsides to aging.
Perhaps the biggest benefit of all to BIG BLUE is its versatility. It’s not just for men or just for women. And it’s not just for sexual health. It delivers a broad spectrum of benefits that both sexes can enjoy and that no ED or libido drug on the market can provide. BIG BLUE is not a drug at all—it’s a dietary supplement that just so happens to contain the right ingredients for supporting your sexual health and well-being. The ingredients work in synergy with your body. You don’t have to save these nutrients, either, for “just the right moment.” Take two tablets daily with food, preferably at lunch and dinner time, and you’ll give your body what it needs to perform optimally when you what it to most. BIG BLUE is the natural answer to the worrisome problem of men suffering from erectile dysfunction and women suffering from frigidity, vaginal dryness, painful intercourse and an unhealthy sexual relationship.
So, whether you’re a man or a woman, if you’re looking to increase your sexual experience without increasing your risk for serious side effects, then BIG BLUE is for you.
