Epimedium

Epimedium, also known as Yin Yang Huo or “horny goat weed” has been a longtime aphrodisiac that is known to improve libido in women and men. The name “horny goat weed” came from the observation of an ancient Chinese goat herder who observed his goats engaging in vigorous sexual activity after eating certain plants. It was first used in ancient Chinese medicine and currently plays an important role in traditional Chinese medicine today. It has been utilized for more than 2,000 years and is derived from a leafy plant that grows at higher altitudes. The leaves of these plans contain sterols, polysaccharides, flavonoids, magnaflorine and icariin.

Epimedium helps improve erectile dysfunction, fatigue, menopausal discomfort and restore sexual drive. It has also been known to improve lower back pain and hypertension. Although not proven, Epimedium is thought to work by improving blood flow and thus the ability for men to maintain an erection.

Epimedium is available in powders, tablets and capsules. No side effects are commonly reported with the use of Epimedium. However, like with any herbal supplement, Epimedium should only be taken after consulting your physician. Those who are pregnant or nursing should avoid Epimedium.

Nutraceuticals are food supplements with medical health benefit, including the prevention and treatment of disease. The term was coined in the late 1980’s by Dr. Stephen DeFelice, M.D., founder and chairman of the Foundation for Innovation in Medicine. Such foods also commonly are referred to as functional foods, signifying they and or their components may provide health benefits beyond basic nutrition. While all foods are functional in that they provide nutrients, nutraceuticals contain health promoting ingredients or natural components that have a potential health benefit for the body.

Bio Scientists have identified hundreds of compounds with functional qualities, and they continue to make new discoveries surrounding the complex benefits of phytochemicals in foods.  Phytochemicals are non-nutritive plant chemicals that have protective or disease preventive properties.

Most often, nutraceuticals are simply natural. The FDA regulates nutraceuticals in the same way they regulate all foods, the safety of ingredients must be assured in advance, and all claims must be substantiated, truthful, and nonmisleading. Most members of the medical community are in acceptance of the health benefits of nutraceuticals. However, there is concern over products entering the consumer markets not following FDA guidelines and lacking adequate effacy and safety data.

When considering what vitamins, minerals and supplements to put in your body, you should be cognizant of where and how you purchase your products. Taking poorly manufactured or counterfeit products can be extremely dangerous. Do not risk your health and safety on a product you are unsure about. Make sure that you take time to learn about accreditations and affiliations associated with the group you are purchasing from.
