How Does Muira Puama Work?

Honestly Muira puama is not very well researched. It contains a variety of different chemical constituents, none of which have been identified as the one reason this herb aids in male sexual function. One study on rabbits showed that this plant has the ability to relax the corpus cavernosa of the penis, allowing for the penis to become engorged with more blood than is what is typical for a normal erection. While another study showed that Muira puama may block an enzyme known as acetylcholinesterase. How does this help fertility? Well, acetylcholine aids in the dilation of blood vessels, including those to the genitals. This may allow more blood into the genitals, which in theory aids in sustained erection.
