Horny Goat Weed

Yea, i got these "vitamins" laying around my house and never knew wth it was until my dad explained it but i didn't believe him. One day my friend comes knocking crazily at my door telling me how much better sex was with these vitamins he took called Horny Goat Weed. Thought it was like ecstasy or Viagra but no. Perfectly safe to use, but a dietary supplement? I don't know but i want to give this a shot lmao. Sounds interesting

LMAO!!! That is the funniest name I have heard yet!

Im serious though lmao..i wonder if it actually works

good question. Its totally worth a shot.

What is Horny Goat Weed?
Other names: Epimedium, Yin Yan Huo

Horny goat weed is a leafy plant that is native to Asia and the Mediterranean region.

Horny goat weed has a long history of use in traditional Chinese medicine.


Why Do People Use Horny Goat Weed?
Erectile Dysfunction and Sexual Dysfunction in Women
According to folklore, horny goat weed's reputed aphrodisiac qualities were discovered when a Chinese goat herder noticed increased sexual activity in his flock after they ingested the weed.

Animal studies indicate that horny goat weed may work by increasing nitric oxide levels, which relaxes smooth muscle and lets more blood flow to the penis or clitoris.

Horny goat weed also appears to act by inhibiting the PDE-5 enzyme, which is the same way that the popular drug Viagra works.

Some evidence suggests horny goat weed may modulate levels of the hormones cortisol, testosterone, and thyroid hormone, bringing low levels back to normal.

Menopause
A study tested the estrogenic activity of 32 herbs used for menopause. Epimedium brevicornum, was one of the highest estrogenic activity.


Safety
There isn't enough information on horny goat weed to safely recommend it for erectile dysfunction or menopause.

In one study, epimedium koreanum was found to cause significant inhibition of the cholinesterase enzyme. This can theoretically increase the risk of loss of muscle co-ordination and jerky movements due to acetylcholine buildup in muscles.

Animal studies also indicate that high doses of icariin, a compound found in horny goat weed, may be toxic to the kidneys and liver.


Drug Interactions
No drug interactions have been reported.

lmao @ the Horny Goat Weed. My friend told me he took something similar to the H.G.W. and he pretty much couldn't leave the hotel room for the entire weekend. The side effects were great sex, great sex and great sex. Oh and not to mention, his ongoing 2 day erection, hence his hotel room imprisonment. LOL. At least they put it to good use!
