Natural aphrodisiac for men and women
The physiological changes that occur in men and women as they age are often accompanied by reduced sexual response and function. (1) This can have a negative impact on self-esteem and personal relationships. Surveys show that the most prevalent sexual concern for women is low desire and for men is erectile difficulties. (1) Although these concerns are different, men and women can help support their libido with the use of herbal aphrodisiacs and essential nutrients needed for sexual health. (2–5)
Tongkat ali, also known as Malaysian ginseng, is well documented for helping to increase testosterone levels. This effect increases the body’s anabolic status and is believed to further benefit people by improving their libido and fertility. (2) In a clinical study, physically active male and female seniors were supplemented with 400 mg of tongkat ali extract per day for five weeks. Supplementation benefitted both men and women, with significant increases in total and free testosterone levels as well as muscle strength. (2)
