High strength Korean Ginseng is one of the best known herbal remedies for the treatment of erectile dysfunction. However, scientists have discovered that its unique properties also help in the treatment of diabetes, can lower blood pressure and cholesterol levels, boost energy and reduce stress. The sexual benefits come from the herb's abilities to reduce stress and allow for an unhindered flow of blood to the male sex organ. The active ingredients are extracted from the Ginseng root, which consists of 24 compounds classified as ginsenosides, all of which have powerful stimulating properties.

Saw Palmetto is a small palm-like tree, which grows in many of the South Eastern states of America. Native American Indian tribes used the leaves and berries to help treat urinary and reproductive problems. Scientists have recently discovered that the plant's properties can treat men with a low sex drive and low sperm count. Hailed as a natural treatment for prostate problems, Saw Palmetto is now widely used around the world. Its association with human reproduction has seen a dramatic increase in its popularity.

The active ingredient is extracted from the Hawthorn berry and is credited with being a natural remedy for the treatment of various cardiovascular disorders. The flowers and berries contain bioflavonoids, proanthocyanidins and other antioxidants, essential for healthy heart and blood functionality. A heathy heart is obviously needed for prolonged sexual activity but other benefits include control of high blood pressure, protection of the immune system, treatment for stress and anxiety, beneficial treatment for digestion, eczema and psoriasis. Hawthorn extract can also be used to increase the body's energy levels.

The Ginko Biloba tree, also known as the Maidenhair tree, has been around for over 270 million years. It is the only tree of its kind and is the only plant extract said to boost energy, mood and memory. Primarily the active ingredient is used to heighten mental power but it has also been proved to substantially increase sexual stimulation. Its ability in helping to achieve and maintain an erection is its reason for being included in the Ultimate Max formula. An increase in blood flow to the male sex organ and the brain makes it unique amongst herbal enhancement supplements.

Also known as Marapuama or Potency Wood is a native plant of the Amazon rain forest. In the Brazil region of South America, it is traditionally used as a powerful aphrodisiac or nerve tonic. The active ingredients are extracted from both the bark and the roots and are known to have prolonged sexually stimulating properties. Muira Puama contains "sterols", which are the building blocks of essential male hormones such as testosterone. Other naturally occurring ingredients of the Muira Puama have proved useful for increasing blood flow from the heart to the organs including the penis. Its effect of relaxing the corpus cavernosa in the penis also allows for increased blood flow and blood retention, which accounts for longer and much harder erections.

Centuries ago, Brazil's native Tupi tribe used this ingredient to enhance their sex drive. Its potent aphrodisiac qualities boost the libido in a similar way to more modern day drugs such as cocaine but without any side-effects. The bark contains 3 specific alkaloids known to support a healthy libido and increase the brain's sensitivity, making sexual activity much more pleasurable. The active ingredients can work effectively for men of any age and for women too. It is now sold separately as a recognised aphrodisiac and sex supplement due to its energising properties. It's the stamina boosting supplement men need in order to maintain maximum performance over a prolonged period of time.

Better known as the Horny Goatweed, Epimedium is a plant native to China. The extracted ingredients are known to be an extremely potent aphrodisiac. The active compound, icariin, relaxes the body's muscles by increasing nitric oxide levels in the blood stream. This action also increases blood flow to the penis, which has a profound effect on libido and sexual desire. Epimedium is a highly effective treatment for erectile dysfunction said to rival the most popular doctor prescribed pills. The active ingredient works in the same way as the well-known blue pills by flooding the erectile tissue with oxygenated blood, which results in extremely hard erections. The molecular chemical, Nitric oxide is often associated with body builders and is a popular health supplement.

Not only is the Catuaba bark used for its powerful stimulating properties, the seed extract has proved just as potent. In fact the seeds contain a much more pure formula of active ingredients, which work on the nervous system to reduce mental fatigue. Due to the purity of the extract it is also effective in the treatment of impotence, anxiety and depression, insomnia, low libido and hypertension. It is considered to have a major influence in the successful treatment of erectile dysfunction.
