Hi Mr Hopking, Just to say I’ve been sexually active since I was 16. I never had trouble with my little man. But now I’m in my late 60s and my little soldier didn’t stand to attention as before. Both annoying and embarrassing when you have the same desires for the female charms. My age they say. The idea of viagra was a turn off to me. I came across your V8. Nasty stuff! I take it once a day. Wow, Mr! My soldier stands strong and straight as before. Every time. So satisfying! Just what my beautiful wife wants and loves! I’m not stopping this testos boost ever!
Had to tell you Alan, this is a wow product I’ll recommend to every failing officer!
Thank you, sir.

Hi Alan, I’m very happy to report back that your Herbal V8 works superbly; it makes my penis hard as I’ve not had for a very long time. What’s more, the erection lasts a long time.
There’s nothing worse (and especially for my partner) that having the desire and urge to make love and have a penis unable to respond. Your Herbal V8 has rejuvenated our relationship. Thank you for this excellent tonic. Mark

Hi Alan, I’m 65 and I know hormones show signs of decline at my age. Now, I hadn’t ‘lost it’ but I wasn’t the man I used to be. I didn’t feel I needed to go the way of Viagra. So I decided to try your V8. I kept to a low dose at night. The effects took a little time to build up. I first realised things were improving when night-time erections kept waking me up. My erections became stronger and lasted longer. Quite honestly I feel 18 again!! Very satisfying for my wife and me. My confidence has been given a huge boost. I can’t praise this formula enough. Thank you.
Robert, London.

Herbal VW (for women):

Many women enquire about testosterone at menopause as they believe it will help their sex drive and libido but this is best done with progesterone and achieving hormone balance. Progesterone is the natural precursor for testosterone in the body in menopausal women and has been used by men to help with prostate problems. However testosterone supplements should only ever be taken under the direct supervision on a medical doctor to their potential side effects in women.

“Dear Sir, I found myself aged 50 and in the menopause. Of all the symptoms of the menopause, the one I found most difficult to come to terms with was loss of libido. For some reason a diminished libido I found very emotionally distressing.
I therefore began to look for a stimulant that would help alleviate this. I tried something similar to Herbal VW a few years ago, but it was difficult to get hold of and the bottles were very small. Therefore, I was looking to find something more readily available and Herbal VW fits the bill. I have also taken your herbal HRT (FlushLess Tonic) and Herbal VW together.
But now just Herbal VW suits me because it provides the sexual stimulation that I found diminished. It doesn’t have any side effects, works within a couple of hours, is made from natural products and is readily available by mail order. It has also given me back a sense of emotional well-being. I have no hesitation in recommending it and have done so to similar aged people.”

Below is the latest information about Yohimbe from the American Botanical Council:

Yohimbe bark

Latin Name: Pausinystalia yohimbe
Pharmacopeial Name: Yohimbehe cortex
Other Names: johimbe, yehimbe

Overview
Yohimbe is a tall evergreen forest tree, reaching a height of 90 feet and width of 40 feet, native to southwestern Nigeria, Cameroon, Gabon, and the Congo. The material of commerce is collected in the wild in this same region (Bown, 1995; Keay, 1989; Leung and Foster, 1996; Reichert, 1997).
Yohimbe bark has traditionally been used in western Africa as a sexual aphrodisiac, especially in male erectile disorders, reportedly stimulating both erection and salivation. Medicinal use of yohimbe bark reached Europe in the 1890s. The majority of pharmacological data is on one of its isolated constituents, the indole alkaloid yohimbine, rather than on whole bark preparations (Bown, 1995; Duke, 1997; Grasing et al., 1996; Leung and Foster, 1996). Yohimbine is also found in related trees (Pausinystalia macroceras and P. tillesii) as well as in Indian snakeroot (Rauwolfia serpentina (L.) Benth) and quebracho (Aspidosperma quebracho-blanco). In Africa, P. lane-poolei (pamprana, igbepo) is also used therapeutically. A dressing of the ground bark is applied topically to yaws (an infectious tropical skin disease) and itching skin (Bown, 1995; Budavari, 1996; Duke, 1997).
In Germany, yohimbe bark is the subject of a negative (unapproved) monograph in the Commission E due to lack of data and safety concerns.In the United States, yohimbe bark is widely used in numerous aphrodisiac, athletic performance (as an alternative to anabolic steroids) and male sexual performance dietary supplements. The most commonly prescribed drug for functional impotence is yohimbine hydrochloride (e.g., Afrodex, Aphrodyne, Yocon, Yohimex, Yohydrol), which is often combined with other drugs, including strychnine, thyroid, and methyltestosterone (Leung and Foster, 1996; Tyler, 1993). The Merck Index reports its therapeutic category as an a-adrenergic blocker and mydriatic (causing pupillary dilatation), its use as a pharmacological probe for the study of a2-adrenoceptor, and its uses in veterinary medicine as an aphrodisiac and as an adrenergic blocking agent (Budavari, 1996).
No significant human studies on crude yohimbe bark or its whole extract have been conducted.Numerous studies, however, have investigated the actions of the isolated constituent yohimbine; for example, some pharmacokinetic studies have been performed in humans (Grasing et al., 1996; Owen et al., 1987) and human clinical studies have investigated its use for erectile dysfunction or male impotence (Morales et al., 1987; Reid et al., 1987; Riley, 1994). One study indicated that lower doses of yohimbine, given to patients who are fasting or eating a low-fat diet, may be more effective (Grasing et al., 1996).
There are a few studies showing that yohimbine is effective for some impotence, especially of vascular, diabetic, or psychogenic origins. It can improve the quality and staying power of erections, usually without increasing sexual excitement. The Commission E noted side effects, however, including dizziness, nervousness, and anxiety. To determine its therapeutic efficacy and evaluate the safety of yohimbine in regard to its specific use for erectile dysfunction, a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized clinical trials was conducted (Ernst and Pittler, 1998). The authors found seven trials that fit the predefined inclusion criteria. Overall methodological quality of those studies was satisfactory. The meta-analysis demonstrated that yohimbine is superior to placebo in treating erectile dysfunction. Serious adverse reactions were infrequent and reversible. The authors concluded that the benefits seem to outweigh the risks. Therefore, yohimbine is considered to be a reasonable therapeutic option for erectile dysfunction (Ernst and Pittler, 1998). This conclusion is based not on the bark but on the isolated constituent yohimbine, which is available as a drug. A review of yohimbine and related yohimbe alkaloids details potential adverse effects and drug interactions (De Smet, 1997).
Though yohimbe bark is freely available in the United States in health and natural food stores, pharmacies, and by mail order, it should be used with caution. It is not recommended for excessive or long-term use and may potentiate pharmaceutical MAO-inhibitors. Its pharmaceutical derivative, yohimbine, can significantly increase blood pressure at oral doses of only 1520 mg (12 mg can induce a hypertensive crisis in patients taking tricyclic antidepressants), produce unpleasant digestive and central nervous system symptoms, and may potentiate hypotensive drugs. A dose as low as 10 mg can induce mania in patients with bipolar depression (Bruneton, 1995; De Smet and Smeets, 1994; Grasing et al., 1996; McGuffin et al., 1997; Osol and Farrar, 1955; Reichert, 1997; Roth et al., 1984). An analysis of commercial yohimbe products sold in the United States revealed that few products were found with any appreciable levels of yohimbine, raising concerns about the quality control of some of these products (Betz et al., 1995).

Description
Yohimbe bark consists of the dried bark of the trunk and branches of Pausinystalia yohimbe (K. Schumann) Pierre ex Beille [syn. Corynanthe yohimbi Schumann] [Fam. Rubiaceae] and its preparations. The bark contains alkaloids. The main alkaloid is yohimbine.

Chemistry and Pharmacology
Yohimbe contains up to 6% indole alkaloids, 1015% of which are yohimbine (quebrachine); also a-yohimbine (isoyohimbine), allo-yohimbine (dihydroyohimbine), yohimbinine, a-yohimbane, yohimbenine, corynantheine, and others (Betz et al., 1995; Budavari, 1996; Leung and Foster, 1996).
The Commission E did not report pharmacological actions.

Uses
The Commission E reported its unofficial use for sexual disorders, as an aphrodisiac, and for feebleness and exhaustion. The effectiveness of this herb and its preparations for the claimed applications is not sufficiently documented in the scientific literature, and thus the Commission E categorized it as an unapproved herb.
The Commission E did not find adequate documentation to support this use. The Evaluation section of the original monograph states, ‘The therapeutic administration of yohimbe bark and its preparations is not recommended because of insufficient proof of efficacy and the unforeseeable correlation between risk and benefit.’

Contraindications
In existing liver and kidney diseases and in chronic inflammation of the sexual organs or prostate gland (McGuffin et al., 1997; Reynolds, 1989; Roth et al., 1984).

Side Effects
Therapeutic administration of yohimbine can cause nervous excitation, tremor, sleeplessness, anxiety, increased blood pressure, tachycardia, nausea, and vomiting. In case of existing liver and kidney diseases, yohimbe preparations should not be used. Interactions with psychopharmacological herbs have been reported.

Use During Pregnancy and Lactation
No data available.

Interactions with Other Drugs
May potentiate pharmaceutical MAO-inhibitors and, in high doses, potentiate hypotensive drugs (McGuffin et al., 1997).

Dosage and Administration
Evaluation: The therapeutic administration of yohimbe bark and its preparations is not recommended because of insufficient proof of efficacy and the unforeseeable correlation between risk and benefit (Commission E).

Yohimbine Hydrochloride: 5.4 mg, three times daily (Rice et al., 1996); 6 mg., three times daily (Morales et al., 1987; Reid et al., 1987; Reynolds, 1989; Werbach and Murray, 1994); 15-20 mg per day though higher doses up to 42 mg per day may be more effective (Werbach and Murray, 1994). Other sources state that yohimbine may be more effective at lower doses and that there are significant risks associated with doses over 10 mg (Devi, 1998; Reichert, 1997; Riley, 1994).
