HARD BLENDS - Yohimbina

Yohimbine is a naturally occurring alkaloid found in the Pausinystalia yohimbe tree and the Rauwolfia serpentina plant. Yohimbine is a stimulatory compound that primarily acts on the alpha-2-adrenergic receptors in the body.It’s best known for its ability to increase fat burning (lipolysis) and aid in male sexual dysfunction. Yohimbine supplementation is also used for weight loss,body composition,treatment of phobias, and orthostatic hypotension, though there is a lack of evidence to support yohimbine’s benefits for many of these conditions.

Benefits

• Some evidence supports the use of yohimbine as a natural way to improve symptoms of erectile dysfunction (ED) in men.
  
  
• While studies have questioned this claim,two meta-analyses concluded that yohimbine taken aloneor alongside other therapies, including arginine and PDE-5 inhibitors.
  
  
• Improves ED when compared to a placebo, though studies using combined yohimbine and PDE-5 inhibitors have only been conducted in animals.

Suggested Use

Total daily dosages of 0.2mg/kg bodyweight have been successfully used to increase fat burning without significant implications on cardiovascular parameters like heart rate and blood pressure. This results in a total daily dosage of:

• 14 mg for a 150 lb (68 kg) person
  
  
• 18 mg for a 200 lb (91 kg) person
  
  
• 22 mg for a 250 lb (113 kg) person

These total daily doses are often divided and taken in two to four doses throughout the day.
