Epimedium Extract
Epimedium, also called h***y goat w**d, grows as an ornamental herb in Asia and the Mediterranean. In Asia, its leaves have been used for treating fatigue and boosting s*x drive for a long history since 16th century. Traditionally, herbal epimedium has been used to treat disorders of the kidneys, joints and liver. Nowadays, the plant is a traditional Chinese medicine and is widely used as dietary supplement in western countries. Many species of Epimedium are alleged to have aphrodisiac qualities. According to legend, this property was discovered by a Chinese goat herder who noticed s*xual activity in his flock after they ate the w**d. It is sold as a health supplement; usually in raw herb, tablet, or capsule form and sometimes blended with other supplements. The over-exploitation of wild populations of Epimedium for use in traditional Chinese medicine is having potentially serious consequences for the long-term survival of several species, none of which are widely cultivated for medicinal purposes.
