Healing Herbs - sexual enhancer, libido, Horny Goat Weed

This remarkable herb seems custom-made by nature for the flagging male and female libido, especially when combined with certain other herbs. Specifically, Yin Yang Huo has been shown to stimulate the supra renal glands, and triggers increased hormonal secretions. Research has shown that male sperm count and semen density increase substantially.

Yin Yang Huo also expands the circulatory system's blood vessels, while allowing hormone-enriched blood to penetrate sensitive tissues. The Chinese claim this eliminates tiredness and increases energy--while nervous stimulation is boosted as the brain is flooded with hormone-rich blood.

But how did this herb get its name,"

It seems that hundreds of years ago, a goat-herder noticed his male goats were especially randy, mounting their mates several times during a brief period. Curious, the young man observed the animals carefully. He noticed that whenever they ate from a certain patch of weeds, their promiscuous behavior became more pronounced several hours afterwards. One thing led to another... and the rest is history.

So the legend goes. And why not? Local anecdotal evidence has been the basis for most herbal discoveries.

China's favorite formula

Yin Yang Huo can be taken pure, in powdered form, under careful supervision. But this isn't practical for most people, and we don't sell it in this form. Instead, we offer Yin Yang Huo in capsules combined with several other herbs in the traditional formula. This is called Yi Shen Ling and is safe, non-toxic and can be used by both men and women.

Something else...

Elsewhere, we describe the difference between western and Chinese medicines. The former uses the "sledge-hammer" approach, for quick results but sometimes long-term side effects. In contrast, Chinese herbal medicine takes a bit longer to achieve the desired result, but provides longer-lasting benefit.
