Researchers at Universiti Malaya have created a tablet for erectile dysfunction that uses walnut extract!
40 men have tried the pills and they seem to work. And because the tablet isn't a drug, it's safer to use than products like Viagra and is probably even safe for people with other medical problems such as high blood pressure and diabetes. Supposedly the Romans and French have been doing this for years.
This is the part where you are free to make as many jokes as possible out of the words "nuts" and "erectile dysfunction." Have fun.

Just because something is based on a natural product that does NOT mean it's not a drug (or that it's safe for that matter).

I cook with walnuts all the time. Maybe I've been a little too self-centered with my guests' reactions! I always wondered why they left so early...

It's not safer because its not a drug. Extracts can have side effects and bad interactions just like a "drug". Regardless of the fact that Walnuts are natural, concentrated extracts are not and we need to use them with care.
