Beyond Arginine

Why ProSexual Plus^TM is Better

Recent studies indicate that it takes more than arginine to produce NO and that other factors operate both directly and indirectly to synergistically enhance the effects of arginine. As reviewed in a remarkable book from Dutch-based scientific publisher Elsevier,¹ Ginkgo biloba has been found to exercise a mediating effect on endothelium-derived relaxing factor also known as nitric oxide (NO). The authors conclude that some of the vascular tonality effects of Ginkgo result from its ability to help activate the release of NO from endothelium both in arteries and veins. ProSexual Plus^TM contains 30 mg of Ginkgo per serving.

Another ingredient contained in ProSexual Plus is folic acid at 133 mcg per serving. Folic acid has been shown to help reduce the negative impact of homocysteine on the production of NO. ² This is also true of vitamin B12, included along with its coenzyme (dibencozide), which acts to enhance energy levels. Sperm motility (activity)3 has been found to correspond to levels of zinc, of which there is 5 mg in each serving of ProSexual Plus. All sugars are not alike, and fructose is in a league by itself. Used as the satisfying sweetener in ProSexual Plus, fructose provides the benefits of a smooth longer lasting energy that doesn't let you down as ordinary sugars do. ³ It doesn't result in large releases of the hunger hormone insulin which can trigger energy-bottoming reactive hypoglycemia. ⁴

Findings suggest that some of the boron in your diet helps in the production of estrogen and testosterone - strongly associated with libido and a positive attitude towards sex. ⁵ ProSexual Plus contains this important mineral because most people do not get enough boron in their diets. Niacin (vitamin B3) produces a flushing sensation all over your body by inducing histamine release, one effect of which is to dialate blood vessels. This is essentially the same effect as the sex flush documented by Masters and Johnson, although probably more intense. Niacin can also serve as a dopaminergic agonist for enhanced motor mechanism activity. ProSexual Plus^TM contains 50 mg of niacin in each serving.
