So, we\u2019ve all seen them before. Maybe it was on some cheap-looking website, or on the way to the counter at a gas station.<\/p>\n So, we\u2019ve all seen them before. Maybe it was on some cheap-looking website, or on the way to the counter at a gas station.<\/p>\n
I\u2019m talking about those \u201call-natural\u201d herbal supplements, the little packages that promise a revamped sex life and a raging libido for just a few dollars at the counter.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s tempting to see what these supplements have to offer, especially because we tend to assume that even if it doesn\u2019t work, we\u2019ll just have wasted a few dollars.<\/p>\n
Limited Regulation<\/strong> \u201cAll-natural\u201d is not a phrase that\u2019s regulated by the FDA, unlike \u201corganic,\u201d for example, which is regulated. Also, because these pills are called dietary supplements, they fall under much looser testing and review requirements than pharmaceuticals.<\/p>\n While Viagra and similar medications have to undergo years and years of testing before they hit the market, these pills often go through zero testing.<\/p>\n What that means is that almost anything could be in these pills. Studies have confirmed that many of these pills pose a \u201csignificant health risk,\u201d but because of the legal grey area that these firms operate in, it is optional for the company to issue a recall. Many of them choose not to do so.<\/p>\n Heart Attack And Stroke Risks<\/strong> These dangerous supplements are often marketed as natural herbal remedies, but sometimes they contain chemical derivatives of impotency pharmaceuticals. The only difference is that the altered version of these medications has no regulated dosage, and it\u2019s often of poor quality and impure origin.<\/p>\n Men who are taking nitrates, or who have a history of any kind of heart problems, are often risking death or hospitalization when they take these supplements. What\u2019s worse is that they don\u2019t know to avoid them because they\u2019re not clearly marked.<\/p>\n Even young men who are otherwise healthy have appeared in the emergency room after taking these supplements. They often appear with side effects such as severe headaches and difficulty seeing clearly.<\/p>\n Unfortunately, the consequences can be disastrous.<\/p>\n If you\u2019re interested in improving your sex life, consider other options.<\/p>\n Any legitimate physician — including the physicians at eDrugstore — will do a health diagnostic for you, and help you make sure that you\u2019re not at high risk of heart attack or stroke.<\/p>\n At that point, he will also help determine the right dosage for you based on your height, weight, and other lifestyle factors. Then you can visit a pharmacist or order online at eDrugstore, and rest assured that your satisfying sex life will not risk your life and well-being.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" So, we\u2019ve all seen them before.

\nThe problem, of course, is that these supplements can be as dangerous as anything on the market. Even though these medications are called \u201cherbal,\u201d many of them are doctored with unregulated chemical cousins of normal ED medication.<\/p>\n
\nUnfortunately, those who take any form of nitrate are at even greater risk of health problems..<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.edrugstore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/Stop-Sign.jpg\")
Alternatives to Herbals<\/strong>
\nSometimes people fall victim to slick marketing and elusive labeling. Unscrupulous salesmen bring these \u201cherbal\u201d supplements to the United States in the hopes that just such an event will take place.<\/p>\n
