About Herbs

• Many people think that herbs offer an advantage over modern medicine. Herbs have side effects just like conventional medicine. Herbs can treat many problems, but must not always be looked to as an alternative to medicine. While herbs are not for everyone, remember that some herbs should still be treated as a potent medicine. While many herbs are part of ancient folklore, there have been proven studies to show that herbs actually do have an effect on increasing testosterone. For instance, the UCLA School of Medicine studied a plant named Muira Puama and found that it increased testosterone levels in men.
