General
Information About The Key Ingredients:
Epimedium is a genus of twenty-one related plant species.
The Chinese refer to epimedium as "yin yang huo", which has been
loosely translated by some as "licentious goat plant" and explains
why Western supplement companies have adopted the titillating name by which it
is known in the U.S: (horny goat weed). Epimedium is grown as an ornamental
herb in Asia and the Mediterranean region, and various species are used for
medicinal purposes, including Epimedium sagittatum, Epimedium brevicornum,
Epimedium wushanense, Epimedium koreanum, and Epimedium pubescens.
Epimedium
has been used for centuries in the Far East as a libido enhancer and
aphrodisiac.
Like
another herb, tribulus terrestris, horny goat weed, or epimedium, has the
ability to indirectly increase the body™s production of testosterone.
Testosterone is the male sex hormone that is responsible for, among other
things, a healthy sex drive.
In addition to functioning as a libido enhancer, epimedium, or horny goat
weed, has been used historically for a variety of other medicinal purposes,
such as treating asthma, bronchitis, and even heart related diseases. Its
efficacy here most likely stems from an ability to dilate ”- that is, enlarge
-- blood vessels, allowing blood to flow more readily.
Animal studies have shown that epimedium may function a bit
like an adaptogen (such as cordyceps, rhodiola, ashwagandha, and ginseng) by
increasing levels of epinephrine, norepinephrine, serotonin, and dopamine when
they are low (an energy-promoting effect), but reducing cortisol levels when
they are elevated (an anti-stress effect). There is also evidence that
epimedium can restore low levels of both testosterone and thyroid hormone
(bringing low levels back to their normal levels) - which may account for some
of the benefits of epimedium in improving libido (sex drive). Animal studies
using epimedium have shown a reduction in bone breakdown, an increase in muscle
mass, and a loss of body fat-each of which may be linked to the observed return
of abnormal cortisol levels back to normal values (and rhythm). In a series of
studies conducted in humans and animals by Chinese researchers, immune-system
function was directly suppressed and bone loss was accelerated, by using
high-dose synthetic cortisol (glucocorticoid drugs). Subsequent administration
of epimedium extract reduced blood levels of cortisol and improved immune
immune-system function (in the humans) and slowed bone loss and strengthened
bones (in the animals).
