If you live in North America you likely have seen the television
commercials featuring an intentionally sappy character named “Smiling
Bob.” According to the commercial broadcasts, Bob is smiling because he
has more satisfying erections because of his use of a natural male
enhancement known as Enzyte. (The commercials make the point that Bob’s
wife is a most happy spouse as well since Bob began taking Enzyte to
enhance his maleness.)
According to the manufacturer, Enzyte is a “once-a day tablet for
natural male enhancement.” You do not need a prescription to obtain a
course of Enzyte. The product can be ordered either through the
manufacturer’s toll free telephone number of through the manufacturer’s
Internet website.
If you are contemplating the purchase of an herbal product such as
Enzyte you would be well served in understanding what the comprises the
product. Again according to the manufacturer, Enzyte is comprised of
two herbs: ginseng and ginko biloba. Both of these herbs are widely
used by alternative medicine practitioners and nutritionists in the
21st century. Many people in the field of alternative medicine and
nutrition maintain that there are a whole host of beneficial uses for
these two herbs.
Ginseng has been an herbal staple for over two thousand years in
countries such as Japan and China. Historically, practitioners of
Oriental medicine have claimed that ginseng can be used successfully to
increase sexual stamina and treat male impotence. Ginko biloba has also
been used by Oriental medical practitioners for centuries. According to
these individuals, ginko biloba assists in increasing and strengthening
blood flow in the human body.
The makers of Enzyte claim that the combination of ginseng and ginko
biloba works to enhance a male’s erection and increases his sexual
stamina. The manufacturer maintains that the proprietary combination of
these herbs that it has created works to increase blood flow to a man’s
reproductive organ allowing his sexual stamina and performance to
improve.
When considering whether or not Enzyte might be a product you are
interested in trying, you need to keep in mind that the Food and Drug
Administration in the United States and comparable regulatory agencies
in other countries have not reviewed Enzyte. The company that
manufacturers Enzyte makes it clear that the product should only be
taken if you are healthy otherwise and that it is not “intended to
diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease.”
Before you elect to take any herbal remedy, you should consult with
your physician. You need to keep in mind that while many herbal
remedies may be safe in and of themselves, herbs can interact
negatively with other medications that you may be taking. Additionally,
despite the fact that Enzyte specifically is mentioned in this article,
nothing in this piece should be construed as an endorsement of Enzyte.
Rather, the information presented is merely to provide an interested
reader with a starting point in his own research on the product. Again,
as has been mentioned, part of that preliminary research needs to
include a consultation with your healthcare provider.
