So the other day I got an email from one of my YouTube subscribers asking if itâs possible to make Natural Viagra at home. He wrote:
âDr. Sam⊠I just saw a video on YouTube about making natural Viagra at home using only 2 ingredients. But is this even possible or is more BS lies? Ever since Iâve been watching your videos and taking your advice, my libido is much higher, my testosterone has almost doubled and my erections are a lot harder. However, I wouldnât mind getting an âextra boostâ from home-made Viagra⊠know what I mean doc đ Please watch the video and let me know your thoughtsâ
So of course, I immediately thought, âyes, more lies and misinformationâ. But I decided to check out the video, maybe I can learn something.
When I saw the video, I was shocked to see there were MILLIONS of views in just a few short months. So either this stuff really works or itâs just some horrible scam.
Well, to make a long story short and save you time, the video stated that all you needed was some watermelon and lemon juice.
Sadly, the video had NO audio or explanation. Just mix the two ingredients together – watermelon and lemon juice – into a 2 cup drink (16oz/1 liter) and drink it daily.
Unfortunately, it gave no explanation of why/how this would work. And to me, it made no sense.
What I Found Out About “Natural Viagra”?
When I dug deeper, the video was made by some young Asian girl in China⊠WARNING #1.
I mean, how is she ever going to know about any of this, right?
I then decided to read through the hundreds of comments posted by YouTube viewers. Of course, to no surprise – everyone was pissed about how the info was fake and a waste of time.
However, ONE person did say that the reason this *could* work is that watermelon has an amino acid called âL-Citrullineâ, which helps improve blood flow to the penis by increasing Nitric Oxide (NO) levels. ⊠âsimilar to how Viagra worksâ.
This is partially correctâŠ.
Actually, the fact is that L-Citrulline converts to another amino acid called L-Arginine and thatâs how your body increases blood flow with higher Nitric Oxide levels.
However, to really make this work – youâd have to ingest like 5 watermelons daily to get the required 10-15 GRAMS (10,000+ milligrams) of L-Citrulline.
So, this is a major flaw with this video because nobody is going to eat this much watermelon, let alone daily.
So, thatâs problem #1.
Itâs much easier to just take L-Citrulline and Arginine in supplement powder form — which by the way, tastes like crap!!!
Problem #2 that most people donât know is that when you take L-Citrulline and/or Arginine, your Prolactin levels ALSO increase.
Prolactin is a female hormone. It goes up after birth to produce milk to feed the baby.
In men and in women, prolactin causes:
- breasts to grow (man-boobs!)
- it lowers testosterone
- it causes zits
- and hair loss/balding âŠâŠâŠ
- AND it decreases sex drive and causes impotence!!!
Yes, you heard that correctly!!!
Initially, it MAY increase blood flow when used at the correct higher dosage. But after the increase in Nitric Oxide and also some growth hormone, your body then does the OPPOSITE by increasing the female hormone, Prolactin. 1-3
This is why I tell people to NOT take Citrulline and Arginine unless you only do so like 2-3x weekly at the most — Or else youâre going to increase your Prolactin, which lowers your testosterone, causes balding, lowers your libido, and causes impotence.
Obviously, this isnât what we want.
Summary
So, there you have it – another scam.
Now, recently I did an article about a natural alternative to Viagra. You can read that article through the link I just gave you.
More importantly, Iâve also listed a link to one of my favorite, scientifically proven solutions for naturally boosting your testosterone AND increasing your sex drive and erections.
The benefit here is that youâll never need Viagra because youâll feel and perform like you used to when you were in your late teens and early 20s because of the higher testosterone levels.
