[SIZE=2]Horny Goat Weed may offer Viagra alternative[/SIZE]

LONDON (Reuters) - A Chinese herbal remedy called horny goat weed is a promising alternative to Viagra for impotent men, Italian researchers said on Monday.
The herb has long held a reputation as a natural aphrodisiac. The lab experiments, which did not look at whether the plant actually increases desire, could lead to new drugs to help men get erections, said Mario Dell'Agli, a researcher at the University of Milan, who led the study.
"This could be the natural Viagra," he said in a telephone interview. "The novelty is that we have synthesised a new molecule that one day may be able to replace Viagra."
Erectile dysfunction is a common condition worldwide, and drugs like Pfizer Inc's <PFE.N Viagra, Eli Lilly and Co's Cialis or tadalafil, and Bayer AG's Levitra or vardenafil, work by increasing blood flow to the genitals.
But the medicines, which inhibit an enzyme called phosphodiesterase type 5 that restricts blood flow around the body, including to the penis, can have side effects ranging from headaches, upset stomach and visual problems including blindness.
The Italian team looked for alternatives by studying a number of plants reputed to boost ***ual performance.
After homing in on horny goat weed, the researchers modified a compound in the plant called icariin and found it blocked the erection-inhibiting enzyme as well as Viagra did.
Because the compound targets the enzyme more precisely, it may have fewer side effects than Viagra, known generically as sildenafil, Dell'Agli said.
Further tests in animals and humans are needed but the extract from the herb represents a potential new erectile dysfunction treatment with fewer side effects, Dell'Agli said.
"The compound icariin is present in the horny goat weed in large amounts and its activity against (the enzyme) is lower compared to Viagra," he said. "But the new molecule we synthesized from icariin is as good as Viagra against (the enzyme)."

let me join you...just two things to highlight...medical research and talks from the grapevine...

erectile dysfunction is usually associated with poor circulation of the blood. during ***ual excitement, the central nervous system sends impulses to the oxygen carrying heme to rush through the man's penis. in a way, viagra enhances circulation but it does not necessarily follow that the man taking this attains the desired erection...so if a man is capable of getting excited during foreplay, taking viagra is an overkill. on the contrary, a man taking viagra may still fail to maintain an erection. why? because there never is a ***ual excitement...that's why in law, relative impotency is recognized.

from the grapevine:

i am out of town and on leave...my attention was called coz a kababayan was found dead in a motel...the grapevine has it that an empty pack of viagra was found in the trash can. twas only 3 days after his death that he was discovered and in a decomposing state already...yet the little citizen still pays respect to the flag...

this is a case of overkill...he was capable of ***ual excitement and unnecessarily reinforcing the same with viagra...the grapevine has it too that he prostituted a woman, who fled when he suffered a cardiovascular attack. here, the blood rushed to the heart and not to the penis.

RIP

it's only this time that i fully appreciated what my medical jurisprudence subject has taught us in connection to legally putting an end to a marriage by reason of relative impotency...that is, a man may be declared impotent even if some time in the past he impregnated a woman not his wife.
