A man's best friend... and women's too. The little blue pill's benefits in the bedroom are well known, but on the field? According to CTV, more and more athletes are using Viagra to get an edge over the competition. Studies are being done to determine whether Viagra, which theoretically allows blood cells to travel faster to the lungs, allowing for more oxygen flow, actually works." While preliminary studies show that cyclist using Viagra have improved performance by 40%, some believe the results may be the effects of good sex. "If athletes are euphoric after sex after taking Viagra, they may be euphoric about their athletic endeavours," Dr. Gerard Varlotta hypothesized. "That may make them a better athlete."
