Damiana Leaf: A short plant that grows throughout Central America, damiana (Turnera diffusa) was used as a libido promoter by indigenous groups in and around Mexico. An animal study reported that male subjects who ingested a large serving of damiana leaf mixed with a smaller serving of yohimbine (a natural alkaloid) engaged in far more sexual activity than their peers. Many men ask, “Do gummies help ED?”. We discovered that the short answer is they can. Some gummy products may help men with erectile difficulties to perform better in the bedroom. Saw Palmetto Berry: A small palm plant, the saw palmetto fruit (Serenoa repens) has traditionally been used by American indigenous groups to promote men’s vitality and reproductive capacity. A clinical review published in Food Science and Biotechnology suggested bioactive compounds in saw palmetto berries could mitigate prostate inflammation. As you may know, the prostate produces a large portion of your semen contents and is often susceptible to inflammation.
