Have you tried these two coffee products: ‘Sexpresso’ and ‘Rock Hard’? Me neither, but Food Standards Australia New Zealand (FSANZ) has issued a warning not to, as government analysis has shown they contain analogues of Sildenafil (Viagra).
Neither package mentions this, so there’s an obvious health risk, especially for those with certain health conditions and medical prescriptions.
It’s for this reason that therapeutic drugs (and their analogues) are not allowed to be added to food.
According to FSANZ, State food enforcement agencies are actively investigating the products, which have mostly been sold online and through sex shops.
Seriously — stay away from this shit. [FSANZ via Herald Sun]
It is not known what the potential side effects and risks of consuming products containing these analogues may be… Consumers who are using this product should stop taking it immediately and speak to a doctor if they are experiencing side effects.
