I would have to say it in my opinion would only raise your bp and someone probably got the notion that increased blood pressure would somehow cause more blood to flow and help in engorging the shaft if you wished to have sex. Now does it work, I would say I have my doubts, I mean I have a fairly high sodium intake and I still have ED which is controlled by a daily dose of Cialis. If you think it might be something you wanted to try good luck but I would say along with elevated bp you might also find you might begin to have issues like swelling in legs, hands and feet possibly along with who knows what other things in your body would be off balance!
