<unk>  is an herbal nutritional supplement originally manufactured by Berkeley Premium Nutraceuticals of Cincinnati, Ohio.  The manufacturer has claimed<unk>  promotes "natural male enhancement", which is suggestive of a euphemism for penile enlargement. However, its effectiveness has been called into doubt and the claims of the manufacturer have been under scrutiny from various state and federal organizations.
By 2009, marketing was oriented to both erectile dysfunction, and attracting more naive purchasers seeking permanent enlargement of the penis.
Because of their claims and business practices, the company's founder and CEO, Steve Warshak, and his mother, Harriett Warshak, were found guilty of conspiracy to commit mail fraud, bank fraud, and money laundering, and in September 2008 were sentenced to prison and ordered to forfeit $500 million in assets.
The conviction threw the company into bankruptcy.  In December 2008 the assets were acquired from bankruptcy court for $2.75 million by Pristine Bay, affiliated with Cincinnati developer Chuck Kubicki who said he wanted to keep the company's 200 employees in one of his property buildings in suburban Cincinnati at Forest Park, Ohio. Pristine Bay LLC has the same mailing address as Kubicki's Cincinnati United Contractors. Pristine Bay’s statutory agent, Chance Truemper, is a property-development coordinator for CUC.
Kubiciki said he would change the company name but would keep the brand.<unk>  is widely advertised on US television as "the once daily tablet for natural male enhancement". The commercials feature a character known as "Smilin' Bob" (played by actor John Larson), who always wears a smile that is implied to be caused by the enhancing effects of<unk> ; these advertisements feature double entendres.  Some commercials feature an equally smiling "Mrs. Bob".
The purported benefits of this compound are dubious, unproven and untested.
