Venom Gold Male Sexual Enhancement Pill

What it is

Venom Gold XXIV-3 is a single herbal capsule for adult men, sealed under a clear blister on one gold snakeskin-embossed card. The Supplement Facts panel printed on the reverse of that card states one capsule equals one serving, and gives one figure for the formula: a proprietary blend of 1,000 mg. The card is marked Made in USA and Distributed By: SJL DIST, and carries the model marking XXIV-3 beside the Venom snake mark.

Every number, ingredient name and instruction below is transcribed from the printing on that card rather than from a supplier sheet. Where the card is silent — and it is silent on several things a shopper might reasonably want to know — this page says so rather than filling the gap.

It sits in our supplements for men range alongside other single-card herbal capsules.

What's inside

The formula is declared as a proprietary blend, which means the panel prints a single combined weight — 1,000 mg — and no milligram figure for any individual ingredient. Seventeen entries are printed inside that blend. Because none of them carries its own amount, there is no way to work out how much of any one ingredient a capsule contains, and we have not estimated. Here is what the named entries actually are.

The ginseng group. Panax Ginseng is the root of a slow-growing perennial cultivated in Korea, north-eastern China and, latterly, Wisconsin; roots are typically lifted after four to six years in the ground. The NCCIH page on Asian ginseng gives general background on the plant and on what is and is not known about it. Deng Sen Extract and Condonopsis both point at Codonopsis pilosula, a bellflower root known in Chinese herbal practice as dang shen and long used as a milder, cheaper stand-in for ginseng.

The fruits and seeds. Go Ji Extract comes from the small orange-red berry of Lycium barbarum, grown commercially in Ningxia and sold dried as a snack across much of Asia. Cornus is the fruit of the Asiatic dogwood, gathered in autumn and dried. Rubus is the raspberry genus — in formulas of this style it is usually the dried unripe fruit of Rubus chingii. Cuscuta is dodder seed, from a parasitic climbing vine that has no true leaves of its own.

The roots and barks. Atractylodes is an aromatic rhizome from the daisy family. Dang Gui is Angelica sinensis, a tall umbellifer whose root is one of the most widely used items in the Chinese materia medica. Pueraria Lobata is kudzu, the fast-growing vine notorious across the American South, whose starchy root has a much longer history as a food and herbal item in Japan and China. Cinnamon Bark is the dried inner bark of a cinnamon tree — the same spice sold ground for baking. Licorice is the root of Glycyrrhiza glabra, and it is worth reading the NCCIH page on licorice root, because licorice is one of the few common botanicals with well-documented cautions around blood pressure and potassium.

The fungus. Cordyceps sinensis is a fungus that grows on caterpillar larvae at high altitude on the Tibetan plateau. Wild collection is now tightly limited, and most supplement material is laboratory-cultured mycelium rather than the wild article.

The two non-botanicals. Superoxide Dismutase is an enzyme found in nearly every living cell; the panel prints it twice, once in full and once shortened to Dismutase. Vitamin B12 is a water-soluble vitamin normally obtained from animal foods, and the NIH Office of Dietary Supplements fact sheet on vitamin B12 covers it in detail. The panel gives no microgram figure for it and no percent Daily Value, so we cannot tell you how much is present.

For general background on how blends like this one are put together and labelled, the ODS overview of botanical dietary supplements is a useful, product-neutral read.

Supplement Facts

How to use it

The card directs one capsule, taken about one hour ahead of the occasion you are taking it for. It adds that the capsule may also be used on a regular basis rather than only occasionally, and asks that you leave one hour between this capsule and any other supplement or medication you take.

The card sets a firm ceiling alongside that: do not use more than one capsule in any 60-hour period. That figure is a safety limit printed in the caution block, not a description of how long anything continues, and it should be read as an upper bound rather than as a schedule to follow.

Storage, again from the card: keep the product in a cool, dry place, and keep it out of reach of children. The capsule stays sealed in its foil-backed blister until you push it out, so there is nothing to decant and nothing to reseal.

Who it's for

This is a dietary supplement for adults 18 and over. The single-card format is the practical part of the proposition: one capsule, one card, nothing to store and no bottle to finish, which suits someone sampling a brand for the first time or keeping one on hand rather than committing to a multi-count pack.

It is not suitable for anyone under 18, and the card itself directs anyone with heart problems to speak to a physician before using it. If you take prescription medication of any kind — nitrates in particular — the conversation to have is with your own prescriber, not with a product page. Browse the wider male enhancement pill category if you would rather compare formats and counts first.

Good to know

• The blend is proprietary. One combined weight is declared and no ingredient is broken out, so the ratios are not public information — not to us, and not to you.
• Licorice deserves a second look. Of everything named on this panel, licorice root carries the most documented cautions, and the NCCIH page linked above is the place to start if you take medication affecting blood pressure or potassium.
• Heart conditions. The card's own caution block says to consult a physician if you have heart problems, and to stop using the product immediately if undesirable effects develop.
• Children. Keep out of reach of children, as the card directs.
• Prop 65. No California Proposition 65 warning is printed anywhere on this card, so none is reproduced here. General background is available from OEHHA.
• Shipping. Orders leave in plain outer packaging, with no product imagery or wording on the outside.

Frequently asked questions

How many capsules come on the card?

One. A single Venom Gold XXIV-3 capsule is sealed under one clear blister on one card, and that card is what ships.

What does the 1,000 mg figure refer to?

The 1,000 mg on the panel is the combined weight of the whole proprietary blend in one capsule, not the amount of any single ingredient. The panel does not break that total down any further.

When is it taken?

The card says one capsule roughly an hour in advance, and asks for an hour's gap between this capsule and any other supplement or medication. It also sets a maximum of one capsule in any 60-hour period.

What colour is the capsule?

It is a gold capsule, visible through the clear blister window on the front of the card, so the product photographs show exactly what arrives.

Is a prescription needed?

No. It is sold as a dietary supplement rather than as a medicine, and it is not a substitute for advice from a licensed healthcare professional.
