Candy B: What Is It And Can It Treat Erectile Dysfunction?

What Is Candy B?

Candy B is a natural supplement made from a combination of various herbs, vitamins, and minerals. It is marketed as a sexual enhancement product, promising to improve sexual performance and increase libido.

Why Are Men Using Candy B To Treat Erectile Dysfunction

Candy B has been reported by users to have a positive effect on erectile dysfunction, leading to improved sexual performance and increased confidence. The natural ingredients in the supplement may help to relax the smooth muscles in the penis, allowing for better blood flow and improved erections. Additionally, the supplement's ability to increase testosterone levels may also play a role in improving sexual performance and boosting libido.

Candy B Ingredients

Tongkat Ali Extract

‍

Tongkat Ali is a tall, slender evergreen tree native to Southeast Asia. The roots of the tree are commonly used to make traditional medicine. It is believed to have a variety of health benefits, including increased energy and libido, improved athletic performance, and reduced stress and anxiety.

Tongkat Ali supposedly increases the levels of testosterone in the body. Testosterone is the male sex hormone that plays a crucial role in sexual function and libido. As men age, their testosterone levels naturally decline, leading to decreased libido and erectile dysfunction. By increasing testosterone levels, Tongkat Ali can potentially improve sexual function and help to treat ED.

Several clinical studies have been conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of Tongkat Ali for treating ED. One study published in the Journal of Ethnopharmacology found that Tongkat Ali was effective in improving sexual function in men with mild to moderate ED. Another study published in the Asian Journal of Andrology found that Tongkat Ali improved sexual function and reduced the symptoms of ED in a group of men with low testosterone levels.

Maca Root Powder

‍

Maca root powder is a powder made from the dried root of the maca plant, which is native to South America. This root has been used for centuries by indigenous populations for its medicinal properties and as a natural aphrodisiac.

While research on the benefits of maca root powder for ED is limited, early studies show promising results. A study published in the Asian Journal of Andrology in 2010 found that maca root powder improved sexual desire and erection quality in a group of men with mild ED.

Another study, published in the journal Andrologia in 2016, found that taking maca root powder daily for 12 weeks significantly improved ED symptoms in men. The study also found that maca root powder improved overall sexual function, including libido and satisfaction.

It's important to note that more research is needed to confirm the effectiveness of maca root powder as a treatment for ED. However, these early studies suggest that it may be a promising natural remedy for men seeking to improve their sexual health.

Sky Fruit Extract

Sky fruit extract is derived from the seeds of the sky fruit tree, which is native to Southeast Asia. The extract is rich in antioxidants and has been traditionally used to improve sexual function and fertility in men.

The exact mechanism by which skyfruit extract improves ED is not well understood. However, some studies have suggested that it may work by improving blood flow to the penis, increasing testosterone levels, and reducing oxidative stress.

Several studies have investigated the use of skyfruit extract for treating ED. A study published in the International Journal of Impotence Research found that skyfruit extract improved erectile function in men with ED. Another study published in the Journal of Ethnopharmacology found that skyfruit extract improved sexual function in rats.

Why Candy B Is Dangerous - Tadalafil Found In Candy B+ Coffee Powder Extract

Back in 2017, immigration & Checkpoints Authority (ICA) officers confiscated 15 boxes of ‘Candy B+ Coffee Extra Power’ When the HSA tested the product to contain over 50 times the usual daily dose of tadalafil, an erectile dysfunction medicine. When used without medical supervision, tadalafil can increase risk of stroke and heart attack.

Mentalk Candy

Another similar alternative to Candy B is Mentalk Candy and is also not an approved treatment for erectile dysfunction. It is normally marketed as a natural supplement for enhancing male sexual performance, allegedly only containing ginseng and coffee. However, this was not the case as it was found to contain very high levels of tadalafil with up to 57 times higher than its usual prescribed daily dose.

Mentalk candy also carries a "certified authentic" hologram sticker and was labelled to be produced under “Sino-USA Collaboration Technology”, which may give the false impression that it is safe and of good quality.

What Is Tadalafil?

Cialis is the brand name for Tadalafil, a medication that is also used to treat ED. Tadalafil is in a class of drugs called phosphodiesterase-5 (PDE5) inhibitors and is available in a generic form often called generic Cialis.

Cialis works by increasing blood flow to the penis to help a person get and maintain an erection. It also blocks the PDE5 enzyme, which enhances the effects of nitric oxide (NO). NO activates a series of chemical reactions that increase blood flow to the penis by relaxing blood vessels.

Dangers of Overdosing on Tadalafil

While tadalafil is a safe and effective ED medication, it is crucial to follow the recommended dose and not exceed it. Overdosing on tadalafil can cause severe side effects, such as low blood pressure, dizziness, headache, and fainting.

In severe cases, tadalafil overdose can also lead to priapism, a painful and prolonged erection that can cause permanent damage to the penis.

You should also be aware that tadalafil can interact with other medications negatively—some mildly, while others are more serious and even life-threatening.

Tadalafil can interact with medications used to treat heart conditions and hypertension—specifically nitrates and alpha blockers used to lower blood pressure.

When tadalafil is taken along with nitrates, it can cause a sudden, significant drop in blood pressure and lead to fainting, heart attack or stroke.

Alternative Ways To Get Erectile Dysfunction Safely Treated In Singapore

Here are some of the most common ED treatments available in Singapore:

1. Prescription Oral Medication

An effective ED treatment for many men, oral medication like Viagra, Cialis or Tadalafil are often prescribed as a first line of treatment.

These medications are known as phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitors (PDE5 inhibitors).They help to restrict the enzyme PDE5 which degrades cGMP, a molecule that relaxes the muscle tissues in the body. By inhibiting PDE5, these ED medications are able to relax the muscles present in the blood vessel walls. This ultimately leads to an improved blood flow where you need it most; your penis.

Contrary to popular belief, Viagra and other ED medications won't magically increase your sex drive or cause you to get random erection after you take it. They will still need you to be aroused in order for you to get hard. Thankfully for most healthy men, taking ED medication will help make getting an erection a much easier task.

It is possible that these ED medication can cause mild side effects like:

• Headaches
• Dizziness
• Nausea
• Chest Pains
• Flushing
• Indigestion
• Nasal Congestion

Unfortunately, you will not be able to purchase any oral ED medication over-counter-counter. You will need to see a doctor for a prescription.

2. Penile Injections

If prescription ED medication is not working or unsuitable for you, there are alprostadil injections that can be administered directly into the penis. These injections work by expanding your blood vessels, which increases the blood flow to your penis.

These penile injections can quickly produce an erection, which can then last up to an hour.

It is possible that penile injections can cause side effects like prolonged erection, mild bleeding, and in rare cases, the formation of fibrous tissues at and around the injection site.

3. Penile Implants

If other ED treatments are found not to be effective, penile implants might be recommended by your doctor. This ED treatment involves surgically inserting a small tube on both sides of your penis. These tubes can then be pumped with air to help erect your penis.

4. Suppositories

Alprostadil urethral suppository involves inserting a small alprostadil suppository into the tip of your penis. The medication gets absorbed by the urethral wall, which then produces an erection that can last up to an hour.

Alprostadil urethral suppository can cause side effects like pain, burning sensation in the penis, and minor bleeding.

5. Vacuum Restriction Devices (Penis Pump)

Vacuum restriction devices (also known as a penis pump) can be prescribed to treat ED. A hollow tube is placed over the penis and then connected to a pump (either operated by hand or battery).

The pumping will draw blood towards the penis due to the pressure created by the vacuum. When a tension rubber ring is placed around the base of the penis, the penis pump can produce an erection that lasts up to 30 minutes.

6. Talk Therapy

While ED medication like Sildenafil or Tadalafil works to address the physiological causes of ED, they will not be able to treat your depression, anxiety or stress.

Some methods to help psychological issues, including psychological causes of ED, include cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) which is facilitated by a therapist. If not, some relaxation methods that you can try at home include breathing exercises, meditation and guided imagery, which may help to relieve some symptoms of anxiety, stress and depression.
