Are Male Enhancement Pills With Yohimbine Safe For Men With Heart Disease?
- Is yohimbe OK for men with heart disease? Well, I have heart disease. I've had it for years. My heart disease is a little different than the average man's, but it's heart disease nonetheless. It doesn't really impact me too much. I take a few medications, see the doctor regularly and do most of the things I want to do. I guess I'm in pretty good shape, actually. Because I know there are others whose heart disease is far more advanced than mine.
- Years back, I had the opportunity to try natural male enhancement pills that contained yohimbine, which comes from the tree bark of the yohimbe tree. This is a tree that is found in certain parts of Africa.
- Normally, I would have never thought to try a male enhancement pill, ever (no, really). However, I was young, dumb and I had a small business selling the things online. I couldn't believe how well these things sold. I kept selling out. And then I thought, I should try the things myself. I mean, you need to be able to tell people about your own product right?
- When I took the dose of the pills. I eagerly waited to see what was going to happen with my little test. Wow! Yes, they worked ridiculously well. I'll say that. It was a bit crazy. However, the side effects were insane. My nose dripped nonstop. My face got red. I felt like my skin was crawling! But, above everything else, my heart rate sped up. It felt like it was skipping beats and about to beat out of my chest. But why? What was happening to me? I started to freak out just a little bit.
- Yes, male enhancement products with yohimbe can work great for some men. But male enhancement products that contain yohimbine can be dangerous for men with heart disease. The substance has been linked to some majorly serious side effects such as seizure and heart attack. In short, no pun intended, it's just not worth it.
- If you decide you need male enhancement pills. I would suggest consulting with your doctor. This is especially true if you have any type of health condition or are taking prescription medications. Also remember that studies show exercising, watching your weight and quitting smoking can help men who suffer from erectile dysfunction (ED). Another alternative might be finding one of the natural male enhancement pills that do not contain yohimbe.
