ED Treatments through the Ages

The battle against erectile dysfunction has been going on for hundreds – possibly thousands – of years.  In the past, men were so desperate for a cure to their sexual dysfunction that they would go to drastic measures, usually relying on superstition or myth to cure them.  For example, in the 1400s, friars would eat roasted wolf penis in hopes that the wolf potency would pass into them.

While many of these natural “cures” for impotence were pure conjecture, there were many which actually did work.  Various cultures have used their local knowledge of plants in folk medicine in order to get great erections.  In particular, the Brazilians and eastern Asians used plants like horny goat weed and cordyceps as natural aphrodisiacs and for getting rock-hard erections.  The Greeks would chug back pomegranate juice as an aphrodisiac (though the fruit really works by increasing blood flow to the penis).

As time went on, our cultures turned more towards scientific reasoning and began to reject these natural ED cures.  The 17th century saw the invention of the first penis pump.  Many men used this tool for treating their impotence because it seemed scientific, even though the natural herbs of the past worked much better.  As time progressed, most modern cultures forgot all about the natural ED remedies they had used so effectively in the past.

With modern medicine, we have been largely unable to find a cure for ED.  In the 1920s, doctors were injecting extracts from animal testes into the testicles of prisoners!  In even more modern times, men agreed to have implants put into their penises which would inflate their penis to simulate erection!  In the 1990s, a major revolution occurred when Viagra was accidentally discovered while looking for a hypertension treatment.  While Viagra doesn’t cure ED (it will only work if you take the pill), it did cause a cultural revolution.

Once Viagra was available, men finally started owning up to ED. Before Viagra, virtually no man would admit to ED because it was the same as admitting that his sex life was over. With Viagra, we began to realize how many men are suffering from ED, even young men.  Viagra is far from being any sort of long-term solution though because it doesn’t treat the problems which cause ED (like poor circulation, low nitric oxide levels, and weak penis cells).  Men began to demand that a natural, safer cure for ED be found.

Finally, centuries after we had forgotten about them, researchers started to go back to the natural cures for ED of the past.  They were surprised to find that many of these cures really do work.  Further, many of the natural remedies not only treat ED, but actually cure it. 

MaleExtra contains 100% natural ingredients, some of which have been used for hundreds of years to treat ED naturally.  But these natural ingredients aren’t just picked because of myth or superstition.  Every single natural ingredient in MaleExtra has been tested by researchers and proven to give you better, firmer, longer-lasting erections.  If it wasn’t for this scientific proof, MaleExtra wouldn’t be able to boast thousands of satisfied customers and a money-back guarantee.
