Horny Goat Weed Extract
(30% Icariin Epimedium Sagitattum)
Horny Goat Weed (Epimedium) is a pungent ornamental herb found in Asia and the Mediterranean. The Chinese call it Yin Yang Huo, which loosely means "licentious goat plant." Legend has it that the name "horny goat weed" came from a herder who noticed his goats becoming more sexually active after eating the plant.
Whatever the "legend" may be, this herb WORKS!
The use of Epimedium as a medicinal herb dates back to at least 400 A.D., where it has been used as a tonic for the reproductive system (boosting libido and treating impotence) and as a rejuvenating tonic (to relieve fatigue).
Horny Goat Weed is thought to work via modulation of cortisol levels (the primary stress hormone). Under conditions of high stress, the increased cortisol levels are known to cause fatigue, depress sex drive and lower testosterone levels - so lowering cortisol levels back into normal ranges is also thought to help restore normal metabolism, energy levels and libido.
It is interesting to note that although at least fifteen active compounds have been identified in epimedium extracts, (luteolin, icariin, quercetin, and various epimedins), the specific icariin extract is noted for stimulation of the sex drive and reduction of cortisol levels.
Again, make sure the product is PURE EXTRACT, not powder or root and at least 30%. Anything less and you're wasting money and you'll have to double and triple your dose.
