An underperforming bull has been saved from the slaughterhouse after regaining his libido due to a Viagra-style herbal treatment. The four-year-old bull, called Boris, had failed to sire a calf for a year and was given the treatment by his owner for a week. Two days before he was due to be slaughtered the French Limousin’s performance improved.

The owner explained that although the bull wasn’t performing, they couldn’t bear to see him go and decided to give him one more chance when they came across Herbal Viagra on the Internet. – “since we have fed him this Herbal Viagra he been rampant. When the cows come out – he’s the first in there”.

The Herbal Viagra capsules they used were a blend of Horny Goat Weed, Cordyceps, Damiana, Avena.

With this year’s Winter Olympic Games currently being hosted in Vancouver, British Columbia, researchers are warning athletes that the use of Viagra, generic viagra or other forms of erectile dysfunction medication could cause them to fail drug tests.

These E.D. drugs work by changing the way blood flows in the body. To treat impotence, the drug must allow blood vessels to relax and widen and thus allow more blood to flow to the penis, causing an erection. In theory, the widening of the blood vessels could improve the blood flow to the muscles of these Olympic athletes allowing their muscles to operate more efficiently, thus giving them a performance advantage.

At this level of performance where  the difference between sucess and failure is measured in such small amounts, erectile dysfunction medication could be seen as an unfair advantage. So for all our Maxidus customers out there who are planning to compete in London 2012 – you have been warned!

A failing sex drive can be frustrating, but there are a number of things that you can do to boost your libido and perform better in the bedroom. Sexpert Susan Quilliam has come up with some effective ways, including exercising, taking a break or heading to a spa, to boost your libido.

10 ways to boost your sex drive are:

Sniff his post-gym armpits – A 2007 study by scientists at the University of California, Berkeley, found sniffing a compound found in male sweat can change mood, sexual arousal, physiological arousal and brain activation in heterosexual women.

Exercise – Aerobic workouts not only improve blood flow to sex organs but can also boost your mood, pumping up ‘feel good’ brain chemicals called endorphins.

Open your Easter Eggs early – Chocolate contains phenethylamine, a nutrient that enhances mood and is the chemical we produce in our brains when we fall in love

Get a whiff of salad – The smell of cucumber is one of the best scents to boost arousal in women, according to Chicago`s Smell And Taste Research Centre

Take a break – Too much stress increases the stress hormone cortisol, which causes testosterone to plummet, affecting your libido.

Get adventurous – Recent research shows that partaking in new and challenging experiences both in and outside the bedroom with your partner can boost the brain chemical dopamine, which helps fuel sex drive.

Have a sherbet or two – The pleasure hormones released after drinking moderate alcohol help to release tension and inhibitions as well as testosterone, encouraging flirtatious talk.

Eat well – Too much saturated fat can clog arteries and, in doing so, prevent blood flow of blood from reaching the genital region.

Head to a spa – Studies showed the steam rooms boost blood flow and naturally increase libido.

Fantasise more – Thinking about sex will boost your need for it and particularly for her, make you more likely to initiate it.

As if there weren’t enough reasons to shop for good food, here’s one that your partner will love, too: an ability to boost  libido from so-so to off the charts.

While no single food is likely to consistently work romantic magic, any of these might spice up your menu and your evening (and morning and midday):

Apples: Help keep bad breath away (and your partner closer than ever).

Bananas: Contain bromelain, an enzyme thought to boost male libido.

Celery: High in androsterone, a hormone released in male sweat that turns women on.

Chocolate: Its ingredients phenylethylamine, tryptophan and anandamide have a feel-good effect that can boost your desire for some tonsil hockey (and maybe more). The caffeine in chocolate may have a positive effect on female libido.

Figs: Rich in amino acids that may set your desire afire.

Garlic: Likely to cancel the sweet breath provided by the apples, but can boost blood flow to sexual organs.

Licorice: Its scent may increase blood flow to the sexual organs. Guys respond to the smell of doughnuts, too. Eating them? Not good; that slows down blood flow.

Oysters: Contain lots of zinc, an ingredient necessary for the production of testosterone.

Wild yams: May enhance genital sensitivity.

No time for the supermarket? Then try this aphrodisiac: Think of one thing that would please your spouse (and we don’t mean in bed). Do it right now. Whether it’s giving a foot massage or writing a thoughtful note, the fact that you unexpectedly took time to do something special can help you both reconnect with your sexy sides

A new Austrian study has found that a bit of sunshine might do wonders for a man’s sex life and act as a libido booster. A study in Clinical Endocrinology journal of 2,299 men found that testosterone is boosted by vitamin D. Low testosterone levels can reduce a man’s libido as well as impact energy levels.

Across the study, testosterone and vitamin D levels appeared to peak in the month of August, and drop off in the winter, reaching their lowest levels in March. The researchers found an hour of exposure to the sun’s rays can increase libido by around 69%. Thankfully for those who live in less sunnier climates, experts say the same effect in increasing libido can be obtained from eating meat and oily fish – just make sure that you hit the breath mints before you hit the sack!

Maxidus is the first erectile enhancement product that has worked for me. I have tried other brands, some much more expensive than Maxidus and have felt nothing. I can assure you that you won’t be disappointed. It is nice to purchase a product that does exactly what the manufacture says it wil do.

Works very well, January 1, 2010

I have a small group of friends whom I ask to help test these type of male enhancement products as well as myself and we can say this product does work. I’m late 40’s, my other testers are 42 and 55 and we all have younger wives / girlfriends so these products are necessary for us

It’s a longjack based formula so you will need to take it on an empty stomach with water. I can feel the effects within an hour but at the 2 hour mark it’s really kicking in and the dosage I take is 2 capsules. Just a slight touch and you are ready to go.

Unlike Vicerex, this one does not give you a headache when taking 2 capsules and also the side effects are very subtle as well. Mild heart rate increase is all I felt and no over aggressive feelings at all.

It does have a prolonged effect but not the 4 days as listed on the box, more like 36 hours (reason for the 4 star rating). Like all longjack based formulas you will need to have a 4 day break every 2 weeks if taking it every other day. It must be cycled to work long term. If you workout you will notice some increase in muscle as well and a feeling of those younger days

Worth a Try, August 2, 2009

I bought this product based on the reviews, I have tried it twice so far if you take it as directed it works well. However the effect only last 24 hours not 48. You have to take it on an empty stomach or it wont work. There is a big difference between taking it on an empty stomach and after having a meal. Just follow the directions and for 24 hours you will be able to perform until you get exhausted.

Works, March 24, 2009

I purchased this product cause I have tried others to enhance performance, and I was surprised. They say take two tablets. I took one and about 2 hours later, my face was flushed and in fact it did increase the firmness. I haven’t took two pills yet, haven’t needed to.

Definitely Works, February 10, 2009

My guy and I are “seniors” (whatever that means … I’m 57 and he’s 62), but you’d never know it when he took this. It was almost as if we’d taken a stroll back to our youth. What fun!

According to Argentine President Cristina Kirchnera eating pork is as least as effective as popping a Viagra pill to spice up your sex life. She claims to have tested the theory last weekend on her husband, a former Argentina’s president and recommended pork as an alternative to Viagra, saying she spent a satisfying weekend.

“Pork consumption improves sexual activity,” Mrs Kirchner told surprised business people at the presidential palace yesterday while announcing a cut in the price of the meat.

“This is not a small detail. Besides, some nicely grilled pork is much more gratifying than taking Viagra.”

Mrs Kirchner said she ate roasted pork over the weekend with her husband, former president Nestor Kirchner, at the couple’s retreat in Argentina’s bucolic southern Patagonia region, with “impressive” results.

“We were in high spirits the whole weekend – I’m a pork fanatic,” she added smiling.

We suspect that  that this was  probably shameless self promotion for the Argentian pork farming industry and not neccessarily to be taken at face value.

Apparently Buddhist monks have known it for centuries – that eating soy reduces male libido. If you’re a monk then consuming tofu morning, afternoon and night will allow you to experience less ‘distraction’ from sexual urges which are, after all, natural.

A study from the British Journal of Nutrition reported that replacing meat with 290g of tofu in a man’s diet for only 4 weeks can changes their balance of estrogenic hormones to testosterone. The result is that men have more estrogens in relation to testosterone in their body because their testosterone levels are lowered. The latter can reduce a man’s libido.

Decreased intake of fat, increased dietary fibre and changing to a vegetarian diet also lower the levels of testosterone and other androgens. Eating soy also noticeably reduces the concentration of sperm in male human semen by 41 million sperm per milliliter of semen.

Soy is found in many processed foods, so as usual the advice is to read the label.

A drug which failed the test as an antidepressant could find a new use as the female “Viagra”, scientists have said. The drug, flibanserin, had a disappointing effect on mood but did wonders for women’s flagging sex drive, researchers found.

“Hypoactive sexual desire disorder” – or lack of sex drive – is believed to affect between 9% and 26% of women in the US. Results from a series of clinical trials showed “significant improvements” in a number of measures of libido among women who had lost interest in sex.

Women taking 100 milligrams of flibanserin once a day reported greater numbers of “satisfactory sexual encounters”, higher levels of sexual desire, and reduced stress associated with sexual problems. The expression, “I’ll have what she’s having!” has never seemed more fitting

One of the challenging aspects of erectile dysfunction is not the condition itself. Talking about it with one’s partner can be equally troublesome. Though changes in ideas have occurred over the years, it is still difficult for a man to ‘confess’ to impotence. The impact to his self-esteem is often real and substantial, even in cases when he understands the cause is purely organic and outside his influence.

But failure to communicate honestly and openly with one’s partner can only make a bad situation worse. It can result in a vicious cycle of both the patient and the partner believing they are unattractive or no longer desired and reduce the sexual attraction. Even if the partner discovers that a physical cause underlies the ED, shutting one out from the treatment process harms intimacy. One naturally wants to be supportive and not being part of the process, which inevitably follows or accompanies lack of discussion, frustrates that wish. The impact to both parties is a deepening of the problem. The only outcome is to have the strength and wisdom to be honest about the issue.

Taking a partner into your confidence reduces the difficulty in a number of ways. The most obvious is that it removes any uncertainty about some possible sources of the problem. Partners who assume they’re no longer desired can become anxious and may seek to end the relationship. At minimum, anger and resentment are the most frequent outcomes.

Open discussion can head that off before it festers into a bigger problem. In the case when the underlying cause is medical, it’s predictable for some men to want to ‘be tough’, to want to avoid loading their partner with ‘their problem’. But ED is the challenge of both parties, even when it affects the patient most directly. The condition can be the result of more subtle influences, such as worry over work, depression from a negative view of one’s future or other psychological state.

Having a honest talk with the wife, girlfriend or gay lover can prevent the problem from being amplified. Begin by obtaining the best possible medical diagnosis. Ask probing questions about the available treatments, including their possible risks and benefits. Knowing the facts, be willing to share all that information and seek advice from your partner.

Having the perspective of a trusted person, one with whom you share intimate moments, can contribute to make ED a relatively minor issue and improve sex drive.
