Female libido enhancement
I’m 47 and have been married for 28 years, My husband and I have a strong and loving relationship but I have no libido at all. He is very patient with me but I would love to find something that really can ehance sexual desire in women.
There are two remedies specific to women’s sexual health that may help. ArginMax contains damiana, a herb whose latin name, Turnera Aphrodisiaca, gives you a clue to its action in the body. It also contains the amino acid, arginine, which the body uses to make nitric oxide, a smooth muscle relaxant which researchers suggest can enhance the flow of blood to the sexual organs to help increase desire and performance.
In placebo-controlled clinical trials, over 70% of women with sexual dysfunction who took this supplement for four weeks reported an improvement in sexual desire and their relationship with their partners. In the placebo group, only 41% made the same claims.
The second remedy is the coyly-named VivaLady which contains arginine along with oats to help relax the body and the Peruvian herb, Maca, a well-known aphrodisiac and energy-enhancer which is used to help boost stamina and performance in athletes.
Both remedies are available from the Nutricentre (0800-587 2290), ArginMax costs £17.99 for 90 tablets, take as directed on the box. VivaLady costs £35.95 for five 4ml phials. Simply take when needed.
