Quite often, male sexual health and erectile function come down to two things, testosterone and circulation.

Testosterone is a steroid hormone produced by the testicles. It is responsible for producing and maintaining male secondary sexual characteristics, including body hair and sex drive.

Testosterone peaks in production between the ages of 18 and 21. This plateau lasts for a varying number of years before apparently declining.

Recent studies have shown that it is only testosterone blood levels that decline. This is great news for men, but the mystery is, what happens to that testosterone? I’m so glad you asked. The short answer, SHBG happens.

What is SHBG? SHBG stands for Sexual Hormone Binding Globulin. It’s a natural protein that is produced in the liver and testes. When produced by the testes, it is referred to as Androgen-binding protein, and is responsible for growing sperm; however, SHBG binds to testosterone in the bloodstream, inhibiting the bioavailability of this necessary hormone.

Nutritional studies with herb Swissoats, Avena Sativa, have shown that it contains compounds that bind to SHGB, thus preventing this globulin from inhibiting testosterone in the bloodstream. When more testosterone is biologically available, an increase in vitality, stamina, and endurance is experienced. When combined with Ginseng and other anti-oxidants, such as nettle and vitamin C, the effect is synergistically enhanced, providing a far superior effect.

Circulation is also a very important concern for men regarding sexual health.
