Hi Jake,
>Afrodor 2000
I can't imagine it helping erec dysfunc. I thought it was funny that it was used for ED! Bromides are very sedating and pretty toxic. They're no longer available in most countries.
Kind regards

Afrodor might have some good aphrodisiacs in it if it can contain a bromide and still be prosexual. Do you have any idea, Ed, what the individual things in it are?

ED,
rerember Quaalude? was it a big hit when it came out?
I know it was a black box before it was banned off the US market.
It doenst intrest me, but its the only sedative that i can think of to talk about that is "old".
