Many foods which are rare in the typical American diet contain vast amounts of important vitamins, minerals, and nutrients. Acai Berry, Goji Berry, Hawaiian Noni Fruit, Mangosteen, and Pomegranate are some of those foods being included in recent health supplements and herbal extract pills. And like all herbs and supplements, these natural ingredients come with two basic benefits -- they carry no side effects and promote overall good health.
Acai Berry (pronounced ah-sigh-ee) has become popular since it was featured on the Oprah Winfrey Show. The secret to Acai Berry's extraordinary health benefits is that it contains an abundance of antioxidants -- substances which seek out and destroy free radicals, toxins that cause cancer, aging, and cell deterioration. Acai Berries have been proven to support cardiovascular health, promote good cholesterol, and combat the aging process. In addition, research at the University of Florida suggests that acai may be used to treat some forms of cancer.
Free radicals are naturally occurring toxins, however radiation from the sun, electronic devices, smoking, alcohol, and other harmful habits can cause an increase in free radical damage. Antioxidants are particularly important at this moment in history, when our lifestyles include a higher exposure to free radical-inducing conditions.
Pomegranate is a familiar fruit which helps boost immune system function and cell growth. Like Acai Berry, pomegranate is rich in antioxidants from punicosides and phenolic compounds. According to the February 2006 issue of Cell Cycle, Pomegranate was able to cause apoptosis (cell death) in aggressive prostate cancer cells.
Hawaiian Noni Fruit is also a potent source of nutrients. In tests published by the Asian Journal of Andrology, Noni Fruit has exhibited anti-bacterial, anti-inflammatory, anti-tumor, and immune enhancing effects. Like many herbs and dietary supplements, Noni has been used for hundreds of years, and its restorative properties are only now being proven by Western science. According to a study cited in Phytotherapy Research Noni was able to reverse the growth of cancerous tumors in 25-45% of mice.
Goji has been used traditionally in Chinese medicine to slow the process of aging. Today, Goji extract has been shown to improve patients' responses to immunotherapy, a form of treatment for cancer. In addition, Goji Berry can help alleviate inflammation, skin irritations, and other aches and pains.
Mangosteen contains a high concentration of antioxidants from xanthones. Studies have shown that xanthones can induce apoptosis (cell death) in tumors, leading some to believe that mangosteen may one day be used in treatments of cancer.
Goji and Mangosteen are often sold as overpriced juices. Furthermore, these juices are often times made from concentrates, a process which destroys many of the healthy ingredients in the fruit. When sold as dietary supplements in pill form, however, the nutrients are properly preserved.
The benefit of taking a daily regimen of supplements made from these fruits and berries is that all of their nutrient capacity can be concentrated in one easy to ingest form. Also, consistency and persistence are the keys to benefiting from herbal supplements, as assimilating these nutrients into the diet in a quantifiable form is the only way to receive their extraordinary health effects.

How to Make Your Testicles Bigger!
Small testicles are more than just a cosmetic issue. In many cases, it also signals inadequate production of testosterone and other androgens. If production of these essential hormones are not restored, sexual difficulties can result. Low levels of testosterone and other male hormones has been linked to impotence, erectile dysfunction, low libido and reduced sexual endurance and stamina.
Hormone replacement therapy can help encourage testicles to reach their full growth. However, the therapy can come with a lot of side effects. A better option is to supplement with one or more of the herbs that men have been using for ages to improve the function and appearance of their sexual organs.
Tongkat Ali
Men in Malaysia are well aware of the many benefits of tongkat ali. In lab studies, the herb elevated luteinizing hormone, the hormone responsible for stimulating the Leydig cells found in the testicles. The stimulation kicked up production of testosterone. Researchers noted a significant increase in testicle size and sperm production as a result. Many users report fuller, larger testicles within a couple weeks of starting to supplement with tongkat ali.
Tribulus Terrestris
A recent scientific study on tribulus terrestris examined the effects of the herb on endocrine-sensitive organs of castrated and uncastrated rats. The Brazilian researchers found that the herb showed a positive effect on sperm production. The study was epublished ahead of print in September 2009 for the Journal of Ethnopharmacology. Tribulus terrestris is often used by steroid users to prevent or reverse testicle shrinkage that occurs with steroid usage.
Maca
There have been ten separate studies on the effects of maca on sperm production. It has been found that the herb increases sperm count. Some studies even found that it was capable of preventing testicular and spermatogenic disturbances that result from exposure to certain compounds or from high altitudes. One study indicated that the herb's effects on improving sperm motility resulted in larger litter size in animal studies.
A 2001 study published in the Asian Journal of Andrology found that maca also increased testicle weight. It is important to keep in mind that there are several varieties of the herb-black, red and yellow. While all three varieties do have some effect on the reproductive organs, studies indicate that the black variety is the best option for increasing sperm production.
Ashwagandha
In a 2001 Journal of Ethnopharmacology article, researchers shared the results of their study on the effects of ashwagandha and another herb, cynomorium coccineum, on testicle development and sperm production. They found that when either of the herbs were given to rats, testicle size increased significantly. Extracts of the herbs were also found to directly influence sperm production in the body.
How to Make Your Testicles Bigger!
I've been giving these herbs to my clients who suffer from low testosterone levels for quite some time now.
Many of these men have come to me and reported that they've experienced dramatic increases in ejaculation volume and testicle size as a result of taking these herbs.
Now that I've looked at all the research, I completely understand why.
The product that I use and recommend to my clients includes all the herbs discussed above as well as several more.

Some enlargement pills claim they are 100% safe but apparently they are not. According to studies conducted by University of Maryland and Wall Street Journal, a few enlargement pills in the market are found to contain harmful contaminants, including e-coli, pesticides, yeast, lead and mould. Besides, afew Singaporean men had died in the past 5 months due to consumption of illegal sex pills.
#2. There's no herb or nutrient in the world that can help to make your penis bigger. If you see any supplement with claim like that, stay away from it.
#3. Surgery is said to be the only effective ways to make your penis bigger. However, according to London St. Peter's Andrology Centre and Institute of Urology, most patient who underwent penis lengthening surgery were not satisfied with the results (Source: Wikipedia). In addition, surgery is very expensive. The price ranges from $4000 up to $17000.
#4. The Penis pump is advertised to be a clinical and professional enlargement option. It may be effective, but only to me who suffer from erectile dysfunction and circulation problem. For healthy men, it won't help to make penis bigger. If you manage to observe increase in size of erection, the result will fade off within minutes.
Warning: Size does matter! See how I improve erection and grow 2 inches to penis size naturally in just 1 week, click here!.

What I Wish I Had Known About Selecting a Sperm Donor
This is an article I never thought I would be writing! I always thought I would have 2 or 3 children with my best friend husband and life would move forward as planned. As we all know, nothing ever goes as planned. I gave birth to my first child, my daughter, as a single woman at age 45 via artificial insemination. I learned a great deal about the process including how to select a sperm donor.
When I started the lengthy process of trying to have a baby, I assumed that the fertility center/hospital would have sperm donor books I could look through to select my sperm donor. Wrong. Once I cleared all of my tests and surgeries, I learned that I was responsible for finding, ordering, and delivering the sperm to the hospital's Andrology Lab. The fertility nurse gave me a photocopied sheet with a couple of urls, told me there were lots of reputable donor services, and wished me luck. And by the way, I had one day to pick the sperm if I was going to make the schedule for my first insemination! (I could have taken more time, but I would have missed the first month and I didn't want to wait.) Throughout my corporate career, I have been decisive and time-line aggressive; so I was certain I could do it. I drove the 30 minutes home from the clinic filled with excitement to be selecting the sperm donor that would help me make my baby.
Choosing the Sperm Bank
1. Safety. I began the process by looking at the websites recommended by the fertility nurse. I then did a general search for sperm banks. I eliminated any sperm bank that wasn't accredited. I double checked to insure that the sperm bank screened donors and provided testing for disease.
2. Detailed Donor Information. Most sites require you to set up a profile to view donor information. Many charge a fee to join the site and gain access to detailed donor information. I spent about an hour looking though sites before deciding on one to pay a fee to join. I selected this site over others because in addition to detailed information about the donor, their medical history and family history; this site offered psychological information and photos of the donor both as a baby and as an adult. I also identified an alternate site which I did not pay to join but wanted to have available in case I couldn't find the right donor on the first site.
3. Sperm Preparation. My doctor required washed sperm, so I could only use a sperm bank that provided that service.
Choosing the Sperm Donor
Once I was comfortable with the two sperm banks I had selected, I began searching donor profiles to identify my donor. I used the following process to help me wade through what seemed like an overwhelming array of profiles. There are lots of ways to select a donor, but this worked well for me:
1. Identify physical attributes you are interested in. In the sites that I selected and in most other sites, you can search on race, ethnicity, height, weight, eye color, hair color, etc. This is a good first place to run a search and see which donors are available who meet your physical criteria.
2, Identify the non-physical attributes you are interested in such as education level, athletic ability, religion, standardized test scores (if available), occupation, etc. This sort will narrow the list of donors from step one above. My goal was to get to my top three potential donors, rank them, and then select from there.
3. Search through the medical history of the donor and their family. This step caused me to eliminate on of my donor selections because two of his male relatives died fairly young from heart disease. I also eliminated another donor because the site reported that one of the children born from his sperm was autistic. (Is there a direct correlation? I don't know; but I wanted to give my baby the best odds possible to be healthy.)
Using the steps above, I narrowed the search down to three top candidates and then ranked them 1 to 3. This was fairly subjective. I was excited to be to the point of ordering sperm.
Ordering Sperm
I only have experience with the sperm bank I used. The process will probably vary by sperm bank. When I was ready to order, I called the toll free number and spoke with a very helpful and kind representative. I gave her the donor number for my first choice and told her that I needed to order a washed sample to be delivered overnight to the Andrology Lab. She checked his samples and told me that his washed samples were not available but that she could contact him to come back in to donate again. I did not have the luxury of time, so I asked about my second choice. He had several washed samples available so I ordered one.
To order more than one sample? When my representative asked me about this, my first reaction was "no". Then I started thinking about the value of ordering or reserving more samples. If I got pregnant on the first try, the additional samples (and money) would be wasted. If I did not get pregnant on the first try, and didn't reserve additional samples, I would risk not having my donor's washed sperm available when I needed it. I ultimately decided not to reserve additional samples because my donor had 15 vials available and I thought that was enough.
When you are ordering sperm, you can specify overnight delivery. It comes frozen and packed in dry ice. You can have it delivered to you or to the andrology lab which will charge you a handling fee. If you have it delivered to yourself, you become responsible for keeping it frozen and in good condition. I choose to let the lab have that responsibility and pay the handling fee. I think it was a good investment in peace of mind.
Over the course of my quest to have a baby, I ordered sperm 4 times. My second insemination resulted in a pregnancy which I miscarried. My fourth insemination resulted in my beautiful daughter. Whichever sperm bank you choose, do your research and relax once you have chosen the donor. That is only the beginning!

Horny Goat Weed Extract! Stronger Erections! More Sex Drive!
According to legend, this herb was discovered by a Chinese goat herder. He noticed an increase in his herd's sexual activity after they had eaten the plant. Since its discovery, it has been used in Traditional Chinese Medicine as well as holistic medicine practice of other cultures. While the plant offers other health benefits, horny goat extract is best known for its use as an aphrodisiac and its effects on libido.
The herb is sometimes referred to as the natural or herbal Viagra, but can actually be used by both men and women to increase libido. Enthusiasts claim that it also treats erectile dysfunction, improves sperm count and fertility. Some say the plant can even help with premature ejaculation.
How goat weed works in the body is unknown. However, there are several plausible explanations. Evidence has shown that the herb can inhibit an enzyme called acetylcholinesterase(AChE). This enzyme can interfere with nerve pathways. When its actions are blocked, the body has higher levels of norepinephrine, serotonin, and dopamine, all of which play a role in arousal. There is evidence that horny goat weed extract may also lower levels of cortisol, the stress hormone.
There are indications that horny goat weed extract may be an adaptogenic herb, an herb that is capable of balancing hormone levels in the body. In many men, sexual dysfunction can be linked to low testosterone levels. It is believed that goat weed has a positive effect on this important male hormone.
A joint study by researchers at Petra University in Jordan and the Jordanian Pharmaceutical Manufacturing Company tested Etana, an herbal combination that included horny goat weed extract, on rats. Their goal was to determine the effectiveness and safety of the combination when used as a treatment for erectile dysfunction. When the study was published in the International Journal of Impotence Research in June 2009, the scientists stated that the combination was both effective and safe, showing no toxicity.
A study by scientists at the Andrology Center of Peking University First Hospital in Beijing examined icariin, a flavanoid found in the plant, for its effects on erectile function and nitric oxide synthase. They found that that a four-week oral treatment with a 98.6% pure solution of icariin improved erectile function.
Expression of certain nitric oxide synthases were also increased. Nitric oxide relaxes smooth muscles, which could improve blood flow to the genital areas, increasing sensation. When the study was published in the Asian Journal of Andrology in December 2005, the researchers suggested that this flavanoid may have a therapeutic effect on erectile dysfunction.
The combination of scientific research and anecdotal evidence points towards this herb's use as an aid for those experiencing sexual problems. Whether the goal is to increase libido, improve erectile function or just feel more confident about performance, horny goat weed extract can help.
Recently, I've begun using and recommending a supplement that packs a very powerful hormonal punch. The ingredient list includes horny goat weed, as well as 12 more of the most potent sex boosting herbs known to man. If you're looking to boost your sex drive, and enhance the strength and quality of your erections, I suggest you look into this excellent supplement.

A joint study by researchers at Petra University in Jordan and the Jordanian Pharmaceutical Manufacturing Company tested Etana, an herbal combination that included horny goat weed extract, on rats. Their goal was to determine the effectiveness and safety of the combination when used as a treatment for erectile dysfunction. When the study was published in the International Journal of Impotence Research in June 2009, the scientists stated that the combination was both effective and safe, showing no toxicity.
A study by scientists at the Andrology Center of Peking University First Hospital in Beijing examined icariin, a flavanoid found in the plant, for its effects on erectile function and nitric oxide synthase. They found that that a four-week oral treatment with a 98.6% pure solution of icariin improved erectile function.
Expression of certain nitric oxide synthases were also increased. Nitric oxide relaxes smooth muscles, which could improve blood flow to the genital areas, increasing sensation. When the study was published in the Asian Journal of Andrology in December 2005, the researchers suggested that this flavanoid may have a therapeutic effect on erectile dysfunction.
The combination of scientific research and anecdotal evidence points towards this herb's use as an aid for those experiencing sexual problems. Whether the goal is to increase libido, improve erectile function or just feel more confident about performance, horny goat weed extract can help.
Recently, I've begun using and recommending a supplement that packs a very powerful hormonal punch. The ingredient list includes horny goat weed, as well as 12 more of the most potent sex boosting herbs known to man. If you're looking to boost your sex drive, and enhance the strength and quality of your erections, I suggest you look into this excellent supplement.

Maca Extract - The Effective Libido Enhancer
Maca is a kind of plant that belongs to the mustard family but has an appearance similar to raddish. It is abundantly grown in Peru, particularly in the Andes mountains where they thrive in the cold temperature and safe from pest infestation, and some parts of Latin America
Maca contains significant amounts of branched chain and essential amino acids from which most of its protein content is obtained, some glutamic and aspartic acid, sterols and important fatty acids.
Maca, Peru's natural answer to Viagra, is used to enhance sexual performance and to treat women who are experiencing symptoms of menopause. An experiment conducted by a biologist from the University of San Marcos in Lima, where he used the maca root to feed male and female laboratory animals showed that the female rats who received maca supplementation showed a faster maturation in egg follicles
The result of the experiment on male rats that were given the maca extract produced a high amount of sperm cells and exhibited a remarkable improvement in the sperm cells' speed of penetration, resulting to a higher incidence of impregnation. The substance present in the maca root that exerts action on the hypothalamus is responsible for giving the maca plant it sexual enhancing characteristics.
An article in the 2000 issue of the Journal of Urology published the result of an experiment conducted where laboratory animals were given oral supplementation of maca extract. The result showed an increase in the number of sperm cells among the female rats while the male rats demonstrated an improvement in their erection function.
In another article published in the 2001 Journal of Andrology, an experiment was conducted to evaluate the effects of maca extract supplementation to the production of cells among adult rats. The laboratory animals were given a dose of the maca extract two times daily within a two-week period and the result showed an increase in the size of the testes. The conclusion was that indeed, maca extract supplementation promotes a generous production of sperms among the male laboratory animals.
An article published online in 2009 in the First International Journal of Andrology, an experiment was conducted among human subjects. The study was conducted to determine the effects of maca extract on white males suffering from erectile dysfunction. The subjects were given maca extract for 12 weeks and the result showed a dramatic improvement when compared before oral administration of maca extract was commenced.
