What is Erectile Dysfunction?

Erectile dysfunction, formerly called impotence, is the inability to obtain an adequate erection for satisfactory sexual activity. It’s more common in men over 65, but it can occur at any age.

Natural Remedies for Erectile Dysfunction

Here are five natural remedies that are used for erectile dysfunction.

1) L-Arginine

L-arginine is an amino acid that the body uses to make nitric oxide, a substance signals smooth muscle surrounding blood vessels to relax, which dilates the blood vessels and increases blood flow. Relaxation of smooth muscle in the penis allows for enhanced blood flow, leading to an erection.

L-arginine is found naturally in foods such as meat, dairy, poultry and fish. It is also available as oral L-arginine supplements, which some product manufacturers market as a “natural Viagra”).

There have only been two studies to date, however, evaluating the effectiveness of L-arginine for erectile dysfunction.

One study involved 50 men who took L-arginine (5 grams a day) or a placebo. After six weeks, significantly more men taking L-arginine experienced an improvement in sexual function compared with men taking the placebo. Interestingly, it only benefited men who had initially low levels of nitric oxide.

Another study using a smaller dose of L-arginine and a shorter treatment duration found no benefit with L-arginine use. The study involved 32 men with erectile dysfunction who took oral L-arginine supplements (500 milligrams three times per day) or a placebo for 17 days. Oral L-arginine was no better than the placebo.

Side effects may include digestive complaints. High dosees of L-arginine may stimulate the body’s production of gastrin, a hormone that increases stomach acid. For this reason, L-arginine may be harmful for individuals with ulcers and people taking drugs that are hard on the stomach.

L-arginine may also alter potassium levels in the body, especially in people with liver disease. It should not be taken by people who are on medications that alter potassium levels, such as potassium sparing diuretics and ACE inhibitors.

Tongkat Ali, Sexual Performance, Immune Function

A local provider is selling Tongkat Ali of LJ100, a Malaysian herb. Some kidney transplant patients have expressed interest in using this herb to enhance sexual performance as well as a muscle builder.
You are right in questioning the use of Tongkat Ali in an immunosuppressed individual. But let me first give a brief background on Tongkat Ali for our readers who don’t know what it is.

Tongkat Ali is a Malaysian herb that was called the “Asian Viagra” in a May 1999 report in the New Sunday Times. It’s been used in Malaysia for many years by men to increase sexual desire, libido, sexual performance and to treat erectile dysfunction.

The problem is that Tongkat Ali increases testosterone levels. A study published in the November 15, 2004 issue of the Journal of Immunology found that increased testosterone impedes the immune system.

Specifically, testosterone slows or weakens the response of T-lymphocytes, white blood cells that are instrumental in defending the body against infections and tumor cells.

After a kidney transplant, there is a risk that the body will identify the new kidney as foreign and try to reject it. Very powerful drugs, called immunosuppressants, are given to try to prevent organ rejection.

If these people, who are already immunosuppressed, experience a further weakening of the immune system after taking Tongkat Ali, their risk of developing serious infections such as pneumonia or even cancer may be even greater.

What is Tongkat Ali

Other Names: Eurycoma longifolia, Longjack

Tongkat Ali is a tree native to Malaysia, Thailand, and Indonesia. The part of the tree used medicinally is the root.

Tongkat Ali was dubbed the “Asian Viagra” in a May 1999 report in the New Sunday Times.

It has been used in Malaysia for many years by men to increase sexual desire, libido, sexual performance and to treat erectile dysfunction.

Tongkat ali appears to work by increasing levels of the hormone testosterone. Testosterone is primarily responsible for the growth and development of male reproductive organs, including the penis, testicles, scrotum, prostate, and seminal vesicles. Normal testosterone levels maintain energy level, mood, fertility, and sexual desire.

Because of its testosterone-enhancing properties, tongkat ali is also used by bodybuilders to increase muscle mass and strength.

Safety

Reported side effects include insomnia, anxiety, and restlessness.

Tongkat ali should not be used by pregnant or nursing women or children.

Because tongkat ali increases testosterone levels it should not be used by men with breast cancer or prostate cancer, diabetes mellitus, heart disease, kidney disease, liver disease, or sleep apnea.

Tongkat ali should not be used by people with weakened immune systems as some evidence suggests it may further weaken immune function.

Drug Interactions

Tongkat ali should not be used by people taking immunosuppressant drugs.

It is especially important to tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking insulin. Tongkat ali may decrease blood sugar levels.
