Natural Mens health Treatments

Herbs like ginkgo and rosemary are effective in improving the circulation and blood flow that are important factors in both hair loss and erectile dysfunction. Ginseng and ashwaganda are both potent tonics that invigorate and strengthen the whole body, and help men deal with stress. Herbs that address the prostate including saw palmetto, have many other beneficial effects on mens health, unlike prescription medication that has unwanted side effects. As for herbal testosterone, there is no such thing in the plant world. However, several herbs, notably stinging nettle, may help make more of a man's testosterone available.

Epimedium, also known as Yin Yang Huo or Horny Goat Weed, is a powerful remedy in Traditional Chinese Medicine and has been used for thousands of years to promote male potency and as an aphrodisiac.

Using Herbs for :Improving blood flow
Ginko Biloba	Ginkgo contains unique phytochemicals that act to improve blood flow increasing circulation and improving the use of oxygen. Increasing genital blood flow heightens responsiveness, making for higher libido in both men and women. This hallmark action of ginkgo is an important factor stopping early hair loss.

Using Herbs for :Prostate enlargement
Pygeum, Saw Palmetto	Herbal formulations containing combinations of herbs are often more effective than single extracts. Damiana is often combined with saw palmetto in formulas that address male prostate health, and for older males at risk for prostate enlargement, between pygeum and saw palmetto, the two aren't competitors, they're teammates. ¹

Using Herbs for :Testosterone and sexual health

Stinging Nettles

The sterols in stinging nettles seem to be the key to improving mens health with the long term use of this healthy herb tonic. Stinging nettle helps to keep testosterone circulating freely and keep you feeling sexually vital, while it appears to lessen the action of DHT, the form of testosterone that causes the prostate to enlarge. Stinging nettle also acts as a tonic to the female system, making it a herb that couples can share.
