Hawthorn fruit is the most significant ingredient in Virility Up at 250mg per serving (identical to the 250mg dose of horny goat weed). Hawthorn was traditionally used as a cardiovascular health remedy. Historically, some healers used hawthorn to promote blood flow. The primary goal of Virility Up is to reverse ED by targeting inflamed smooth muscle, and hawthorn can help.

ribulus terrestris is one of the best-known ingredients in the natural testosterone booster and male sexual health supplement community. Some men take tribulus terrestris daily for ED, libido, or hormone balance. Some studies have found tribulus terrestris can significantly improve sexual performance, although others have found it’s no more effective than a placebo.

Gingko biloba has a long history of use in traditional Chinese medicine as a cognitive health aid. Today, we know the plant extract primarily enhances blood flow, helping oxygen and nutrients flow into the brain more easily. Those same blood flow-enhancing effects could make ginkgo biloba useful for ED and sexual dysfunction.

Virility Up contains saw palmetto extract, a plant extract that, like tribulus terrestris, is best known for its effects on testosterone and ED. Some take saw palmetto (Serenoa repens) daily for ED and sexual health.

Horny oat weed, or epimedium sagittatum, is the most significant ingredient in Virility Up (250mg, the same dose as hawthorn fruit). Used for centuries as a Chinese and Tibetan remedy for low sex drive, horny goat weed appears to promote blood flow with a natural molecule called icariin.

Damiana is found in some testosterone booster supplements, and some men take damiana daily for hormone balance. Studies suggest the compounds in damiana could bind to testosterone receptors, helping to increase testosterone levels.

Known as Amazonian Viagra, muira puama root is an aphrodisiac herb backed by centuries of use as a natural remedy for sexual dysfunction. The bush grows naturally in parts of the Amazon, and the bark and root are used to make traditional remedies. Today, muira puama is found in a growing number of libido and sexual health-boosting supplements.

Ginseng contains natural molecules called ginsenosides linked to healthy inflammation, sex drive, and overall energy. Some men take ginseng daily for erectile dysfunction, while others take it for overall vitality. As the Mayo Clinic explains, ginseng is one of many herbs frequently cited for its effects on sexual function, and some studies show it can help with both ED and premature ejaculation.

Catuaba bark extract was historically used to make traditional remedies. Catuaba is an herb, and the bark of the herb appears to contain natural molecules linked to various health effects. Some studies suggest catuaba has significant aphrodisiac effects.

Inosine could promote nitric oxide production in the body, helping to support blood flow, smooth muscle function, and overall vasodilation effects.

Oat straw, or Avena sativa, is found in many sexual health supplements for its effects on testosterone and male vitality. Some men take oat straw daily for hormone balance. Studies suggest oat straw has natural antioxidants that can help with inflammation, such as inflammation affecting smooth muscle function.

Cayenne is found in weight loss aids, metabolism boosters, and energy formulas. Today, we know cayenne works because it’s packed with capsaicin, a natural molecule linked to antioxidant effects. Some take cayenne for ED, although it has not been extensively researched for that purpose.

The final two ingredients in Virility Up are nutrients, including a surprisingly large dose of niacin/vitamin B3. Each serving of Virility Up contains 75mg of niacin, or roughly 5x your daily recommended dose. Niacin is one of the most proven nutrients for ED, with one study finding niacin significantly improved International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF) scores in a group of men.

Vitamin E has antioxidant effects, which could promote healthy inflammation in smooth muscle for better blood flow. In a 2012 meta-analysis, researchers found that vitamin E significantly improved age-related erectile dysfunction in rats.
