How women's libido-boosters work
Women have finally gotten their fair due in the category
of all-natural sexual arousal and pleasure enhancers. Currently, there are
dozens of such products on the market for men (not to mention several
prescription meds that cater only to men), but only very recently have
women's products moved into consumer focus. It's a booming segment of the
natural supplement market that's more popular than ever.
However,
the use of herbs and nutrients to enhance women's sex drives and pleasure is
nothing new. For many years, folk medicine and naturopathic healing have had
a variety of natural and botanical ingredients in their arsenal of tools to
combat women's flagging sexuality due to fatigue, stress, dietary
deficiency, aging, hormonal changes or emotional upset. What's new now is
the availability of specialized, pre-calibrated formulas in new standardized
dosages using many of these time-honored ingredients.
The great news is that the formulas work -- so well that
women are buying them in record numbers and celebrating the results. The bad
news? That the natural supplement market is easily infiltrated by fakes and
poseurs, products that do nothing but cost as much as the real thing.
The wise consumer should first gain an understanding of
how these products work, and what goes into a quality supplement, then make
an informed choice to enjoy the best results.
What
you're looking for is a non-prescription, balanced formula that can be taken
as a daily supplement without side effects or interference with birth
control or other medications you might be taking. The specific formulation
varies by manufacturer, however, all formulas worth purchasing are created
in a cGMP pharmaceutical-grade facility, of top-quality ingredients. Here's
what else to look for: The ingredients in a good supplement individually
will work to promote better blood flow and increased muscular relaxation,
plus act on hormones for increased, more energetic sexual response. In
addition, the hormone-balancing factors in the formula may combat the
negative effects of menopause, such as night sweats and hot flashes, and may
even balance mood and attitude before or during menopause. Taken together,
in a blend that is thoughtfully created and precisely calibrated, the
effects on the overall female reproductive system are overwhelmingly
positive -- from a healthier, more satisfying sex life to natural fertility.
With all the choices out there, it takes a diligent
researcher to find out which are the effective formulas. One that meets all
the critieria above is provestra™,
which in addition to being an effective and very popular libido-booster for
women, is also provided by one of the top legitimate companies in sexual
health improvement for men and women. Here's a partial list of provestra™'s
ingredients, and a description of how each works specifically on the female
reproductive system:
Maca - legendary South American herb
with centuries-old reputation for increasing libido
Red raspberry leaf - a female tonic, uterine contraction
regulator, pregnancy herb
Red clover - a blood cleanser and nutritive, positive
effects on hormonal systems regulating pregnancy and lactation
Cayenne pepper - a stimulant that equalizes circulation
and strengthens the heart
Licorice root - a botanical that strengthens and tonifies
the adrenal glands and enhances hormonal function
Bayberry fruit - natural ingredient that increases blood
flow and capillary dilation in the mucus membranes of the vagina to
enhance lubrication
Damiana leaf - a centuries-old remedy used as an
aphrodisiac for its ability to stimulate genitals
Valerian root - a time-honored remedy that reduces
tension and emotional stress, aids in a restful sleep, and eases menstrual
cramps
Ginger root - a total system stimulant that enhances the
action of other herbs
Black cohosh root - a favorite of midwives that acts on
the uterine and vaginal ability to contract, balances hormones and has a
mild sedative effect
Notice that the blend described above goes to work on the
libido from multiple fronts: circulatory, hormonal, stress reduction,
female-specific tonification and overall effects on the genitals. Other
formulas may contain amino acids, vitamins, enzymes or various vegetable
extracts. Though many of these ingredients are available individually from
health food stores or herbal pharmacies, the prevailing wisdom today points
to the superiority of formulas like this, that are pre-calibrated and
blended to take the guesswork out of herbal extracts -- not to mention the
more economical approach of buying a complete tablet as opposed to a
bewildering array of pills or tinctures that must be measured, mixed or
calculated each day.
Results vary for individual women, but most report
positive effects after only about a week or two on the supplement. Unlike
prescription meds, these natural supplements have no side effects and can be
obtained without a prescription or costly doctor's office visit. Because of
their safety and efficacy, natural supplements are the number one choice
today among women seeking to improve their libido and sexual pleasure.
