Horny Goat Weed is an ornamental plant which belongs to the berberis-family that also has a long history of traditional use in Chinese herbalism.
In China, Horny Goat Weed is called yin yang huo because it is a tonic for the female (yin) and the male (yang).
Epimedium was thought to "tonify life's gate" - a term used to refer to the "vital energy" in men.
NOW® Horny Goat Weed Extract is combined with Maca, another herb known for its tonifying properties.
Maca grows exclusively in the Peruvian Andes in a narrow elevation range. Maca has been used traditionally since precolonial times as an adaptogen, to provide balance in menopause, and to support sexual function; this latter use is supported by recent clinical and experimental studies. Maca's mechanism of action remains to be elucidated, but is independent of any effect on androgens.
