Viagra vs. natural penis enhancement pills

Anyone who has ever searched for Viagra online has encountered innumerable websites that advocate different natural products and pills that are supposed to be natural replacements for Viagra, only without the side effects and dangers that are associated with Viagra. It is actually quite difficult to explain how dishonest this is and how much this kind of thing makes anyone with at least some knowledge of medicine outright angry at the people who write such stuff and especially those who sell those products. We will try to explain all of this in this short article.

 

First of all, you should remember that there is not a single natural pill that can provide you with the same effects as Viagra. There are NO natural products that will give you an erection after several minutes after taking them. The way in which Viagra does this is by inhibiting a certain enzyme that makes erections harder to achieve. Natural products have no effect on this enzyme. The favorite sales pitch is that these products boost the production of nitric oxide, which expands the blood vessels in the body.

 

Well, this is only partially true. Namely, nitric oxide is released when you get sexually aroused. It then has to stimulate the production of cGMP, which is the chemical that actually expands the blood vessels. And in cases of erectile dysfunction, it is the functioning of cGMP that is inhibited and needs to be restored. There is nothing wrong with the nitric oxide levels, which makes the whole thing completely pointless.

 

Another thing that needs to be pointed out is that Viagra is also nowhere near as dangerous as they would have you believe. In fact, the side effects are actually quite rare, even the most common ones. Those side effects that are so strong that they make you quit using Viagra are exceptionally rare, especially when the drug is used as recommended. Moreover, you should at all times remember that the manufacturer of Viagra is absolutely forthcoming about the side effects that this drug can cause and about the dangers that it might pose to some people.

 

The manufacturers of natural pills, on the other hand, are under no legal obligation to prove how safe their ingredients are and their formulations for the simple reason that these products do not fall under the supervision of the FDA. This has resulted in several cases in which these “natural” pills actually contained Sildenafil, the main ingredient in Viagra. And when you include an ingredient that can be dangerous for some people and do not tell them that it is present in the pill, you are putting their lives in danger.

 

However, with all this being said, there is one essential truth that we kept for the end of this article and that is the simple fact that not a single one of those natural products has undergone objective and independent clinical trials that would show that they do a single one of the things that they are claimed to do.
