Brief Introduction
Epimedium, also known as Rowdy Lamb Herb, Barrenwort, Bishop's Hat, Fairy Wings, Horny Goat Weed, or Yin Yang Huo.
The large majority are endemic to southern China, Europe, central, southern and eastern Asia. Epimedium species are hardy perennials.
The majority have four-petaled "spider-like" flowers in spring. Many are believed to be aphrodisiacs, particularly horny goat weed.
The "active ingredient" in Epimedium is icariin,
which can be found in standardized extracts from 5% up to 60% potent. Strengths above that are usually reserved for lab use.Icariin
is purported to work by increasing levels of nitric oxide, which relax smooth muscle.
