Enostim: the new solution for men's health

Erectile dysfunction affects 52% of men between 40 and 70 years of age. Nitric oxide (NO) is the cornerstone of the vasodilation mechanism that enables penile erection. The NO pathway is the most targeted area of research to produce organic remedies to alleviate erectile dysfunction.

At Vitafoods, Nexira announced the launch of a new natural sexual enhancement solution: Enostim. It is a unique and proprietary formulation of active ingredients, apple and grape polyphenols, enriched with saffron. It has been specifically developed to offer a natural and safe solution for erectile dysfunction.

Enostim offers three synergistic benefits:

Stimulation of nitric oxide production: Vasodilation is linked to the production of NO by an enzyme called eNOs (endothelial nitric oxide synthase). In vitro and ex vivo studies show that Nexira’s proprietary formulation activates eNOS, which contributes to an increase in vasodilation of up to 50%.

Saffron benefits: Since antiquity, saffron (flower stigmas from Crocus sativus) has been used in traditional medicine. It has long been consumed as an aphrodisiac, even by ancient Persians and Egyptians. More recently, saffron’s ability to prevent erectile dysfuntion has been demonstrated in several clinical studies. In Europe, saffron benefits from the pending claim (ID 2427): 'Improves erection and relaxes muscles' (Styli cum Stigmatis Crocus sativus: 28mg/day).

Nitric oxide protection: Nitric oxide has a short lifespan and can be degraded by superoxide free radicals. In an in vivo study, EnoSTIM's antioxidant molecules showed its potential to specifically protect NO from oxidation, decreasing oxidative stress by 74%.
