Natural Wood
By Leonardo Calcagno
Published January 2002

Our Adult Subjects expert Leonardo Calcagno takes up where Lauri Jean Crowe left off in Spice Up Your Sex Life With Herbal Aphrodisiacs
Presented here is a list of natural substances, some safe, some dangerous and harmful, which have been found to perform a similar function to the well known drug Viagra.

Impotence, a man's most terrible fear and secret. From ancient times, sexual performance has been extremely important for men, 'cause we think with our DICK! This is no secret, and we should for once and for all accepted it. We live in a macho world, is sad but is true. Impotence isn't only a boner problem, it's also all the emotional baggage that comes with it: depression, low self steam, fear of loosing your partner, adultery paranoia, anxiety, and frustration that can lead in some cases to suicide!

As men from every generation and walk of life have been trying to keep it up, Viagra came to the rescue. Seen as a wonder pill (like Prozac, ha! ha! ha! ha! ha!) men are consuming it like candy. More than one million prescriptions for it are written each month. It's estimated that 35 million North-American men will consume Viagra before 2005, and as the baby boomers grow older, that number could reach up to 50 million.

As this wonder drug changes a man's sexual life, he doesn't mind some of the side effects (headache, upset stomach, nasal congestion, blurred vision, diarrhea, dizziness, rash and possibly death). This is seen as a normal price to pay when taking pharmaceutical drugs. But are there other alternatives to getting a boner beside Viagra (while boycotting the fascist capitalist inhuman faceless pharmaceutical companies)? Of course. There are many herbal and food alternatives to get the little guy to salute...so do try them, talk to your doctor before anything and enjoy!

Note: remember Viagra is not a sexual stimulant nor an aphrodisiac. It's just a pill to help you maintain an erection.
