Maritime pin extract
Maritime pine extract, made up mainly of catechin, epicatechin and procyanindin, possesses interesting and safe antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties to improve, among other things, reproductive and cardiovascular health. This natural product promotes erection through vasodilatation of the blood vessels, the effect of which is enhanced tenfold by the action of L-arginine-L-aspartate8.
L-arginine-L-aspartate
L-arginine is an amino acid precursor of nitric oxide, responsible for improving blood flow to the penis. This mechanism positively influences male fertility through testosterone production, sperm production, increased erectile power, stamina and sexual performance1,2,9-11.
Panax ginseng
Recognized in traditional Chinese medicine, Panax ginseng is used as a tonic that improves health and promotes longevity. Its tonic effect is said to improve physical performance, including sexual performance. Clinical studies attribute the positive effects of panax ginseng on erectile dysfunction to the elevation of the endothelial enzyme nitric oxide synthase e-NOS, by a yet unknown mechanism that does not rule out a hormonal effect12.
Maca
Maca is a root vegetable used by Andean populations to promote fertility and sexual arousal, among other things. Studies have shown promising results in improving libido and erectile function after maca supplementation13,14.
Tribulus
Tribulus is a plant used in traditional Chinese and Indian medicine and is said to have numerous health benefits15. Taken orally, tribulus indirectly increases the DHEA hormone in the blood, via the presence of protodioscin in the extract16. The decrease in DHEA hormone in men is correlated with aging and the onset of erectile dysfunction. Consumption of tribulus improves sexual function17. Its effects on sexual satisfaction and performance have been validated by clinical research18.

Why choose Prorexia?
A growing number of men over the age of 40 suffer from erectile dysfunction. This sexual disorder may be caused by natural aging and a decrease in the male hormone testosterone. Other causes, such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes, overweight and a sedentary lifestyle, can also be linked to erectile dysfunction.
The combination of maritime pine extract and L-arginine L aspartate, along with other medicinal plants, is a natural and scientifically validated way to prevent and correct the onset of this sexual disorder1-7.
How do I take my treatment?
2 capsules in the morning and 2 capsules in the evening.
How long should I take Prorexia?
Prorexia is a natural supplement that must be taken daily to feel its benefits, and for an indefinite period of time. We therefore recommend that you make it part of your daily routine.
