Overview

TOUCH is a unique combination of clinically proven nutraceutical and herbal substances used for libido enhancing purpose and supporting sexual functions in men.

L-Arginine
L-Arginine consumption is approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for several conditions. It is used for senile dementia, erectile dysfunction, and male infertility. L-Arginine has been used safely and has only been associated with minor side effects in clinical studies lasting a few days up to 3 months.
L-arginine is an amino acid supplement and a potential precursor to nitric oxide. L-arginine seems to be an exception to the observation that dietary supplements provide little to no benefi t for men with Erectile Dysfunction (ED). It is possible that taking this precursor in a concentrated pill may alleviate ED in some men.

Korean red ginseng
Korean red ginseng may improve fatigue and reduce stress and may help improve erectile dysfunction, sex drive and satisfaction with sexual activities. Early evidence suggests that ginseng may improve male fertility. Ginseng has been well tolerated by most people in research studies when used at recommended doses.
Korean red ginseng is a potential nitric oxide precursor which may exert a positive effect on erectile dysfunction. A laboratory investigation of Korean red ginseng on rabbit corpus cavernosal smooth muscle found that it can cause a dose-dependent relaxation by increasing the release of nitric oxide from corporal sinusoids and may increase intracellular sequestration of calcium. Panax ginseng is usually well tolerated orally and available studies does not show side effects if used within recommended dose in 3 months or less. The recommended dosage for erectile dysfunction, sex drive and male fertility is usually high but the standardized Korean red ginseng extract used in this formula provides 20 times more Gingenosides than regular extracts.

Ginkgo biloba
Ginkgo biloba has been used for many conditions such as acute mountain sickness, age-related memory impairment, cognitive performance, depression, decreased sex drive and erectile dysfunction.
Some clinical studies demonstrate that ginkgo extracts may improve vascular perfusion. It may also have a potent relaxing effect on vascular smooth muscles leading to improved blood flow to the corpus cavernosum. Ginkgo biloba extract is credited with improving sexual function, improving desire, excitement, and orgasm.
Ginkgo leaf extract is well tolerated in typical doses. Standardized ginkgo leaf extracts have been used safely in trials for a period of several weeks to a year.

Puncture vine
Puncture vine (Tribulus terrestris) is known as a non-steroidal alternative to treatment of infertility. There are some evidences confirming Tribulus application in infertility (men and women) and improving physical performances.
Recent clinical research suggests that the effect of Tribulus on sexual function seems not to be related to sex hormones concentrations.

Scientific evidence supports the application of Tribulus in men and women infertility

Cola nut
Cola nut is a known remedy for fatigue. The source of Cola nut’s energizing effect is not only credited to its caffeine content.
Fatigue is considered a negative factor in sexual function.
Addition of cola nut in our combination may act as a stimulant in addition to the Ginseng’s known effect.
Kola nut has been granted the “Generally Recognized as Safe (GRAS)” status in the US. Cola nut has central nervous system (CNS) stimulant activity. It contains 1-3.5 % caffeine. It also relaxes extra cerebral vascular and bronchial smooth muscles and may stimulate the release of catecholamines.
In the review of medicinal plants with potential effect on sexual impotence and erectile dysfunctions, Cola is one of the highly utilized plants.

Zinc
Zinc is a very important element in general body metabolism.
Zinc is a factor in the maintenance of good Health that helps in tissue formation and also helps the body to metabolize proteins, fats and carbohydrates. It is believed to positively affect sexual functions although there isn’t compelling evidence to support it. However, many of the popular alternative medicine books seem to promote the use of zinc supplements for ‘‘prostate health’’ or ‘‘sexual health’’.

Others
A recent cardiovascular study of patients after angioplasty found that
individuals taking a daily supplement including Folic acid, Vitamin B12, and Vitamin B6 had a lower risk for another procedure, death, and nonfatal myocardial infarctions.
Thus, antioxidants have the potential to improve vessel function, which can be translated indirectly to studies of men with Erectile Dysfunction with a vasculogenic etiology. Our combination product provides the recommended daily intake of Niacin, Vitamin B6, 15 mg Calcium panthotenate, Folic acid and Vitamin B12 according to NHPD, Health Canada. The purpose of the ingredients in our formula is to provide some necessary factors in the maintenance of good health.
