Default Horny Goat weed the new Levitra?

Have a few guys at the gym that take horny goat weed to stay on top of the game and they swear by it. One of them use to take Levitra every weekend and has stopped taking it every since he found horny goat weed? Have any of you guys tried it before, I did some research on it here http://health.discovery.com/centers/...bido/goat.html and they claim it has been used for over 2,000 years. Also found a neat site that compares it with Levitra http://www.edguider.com and many men are saying it is becoming the new wonder pill next to the popular ed meds like Levitra.

Does horny goat weed really work? Might go to GNC tomorrow and pick some up, if anyone has any experience with it I would love to hear it

The 2nd link is not functional...

Horny Goat weed has been around forever. It is usually stacked in those GNC Sex libido pills. Most products such as Horny goat weed have worked at one point or another.

The key is finding the right dose which is often impossible because the standardizations in most supplements is unreliable at best.

If you could find a product which is lab tested 100% pure and take it at the right time, under the right conditions horny goat weed may be a winner but definitely research is needed, whether it be clinical (which is unlikely) or by yourself, just be safe.

Hmm good point. These libido sex pills you mention, what are they called at GNC? Or for that matter which ones do you recommend?

The ones I remember were called Cobra, easily remembered because they had a golden cobra on the side of the box.

They have a mixture of all the normal herbs such as horny goat weed, yohimbe, etc... I wouldn't really recommend any of these pills but I remember in human sexuality class in college they said Yohimbe was a "proven' aphrodisiac.

Since the heart and vascular system benefit from the use of Horney Goat Weed, by reducing high blood pressure, and in turn providing optimal blood circulation throughout the body… it has been proven that use of the Horney Goat Weed is beneficial for sexual performance in men and women. After all, anything that influences the circulatory system has effects on the sexual functions.

Furthermore, Horney Goat Weed is responsible for increasing testosterone levels, which is necessary to increase sexual desire in both men and women. So not only does Horney Goat Weed help manage a low libido for men and women, it may also be an aid for erection problems (as mentioned above).
