Call me grumpy but I do a facepalm when I read some posts here. Many are anecdotes that can have too many variables. Drinking alcohol also increase my boner before sex. But I'm not going to jump to conclusions.

But for real/heavy results, you'll need stuff that's clearly proven to work. Want a massive boner? Viagra.
Want to increase your testosterone? Testosterone injections. And so forth.
