What is Icaritin?

Icaritin (also known as Anhydroicaritin) is a natural prenylflavonoid compound found in Epimedium plants — a genus of flowering herbs used in traditional Chinese medicine for centuries.

Where does Icaritin come from?

Icaritin is extracted from the dried stems and leaves of several Epimedium species, including Epimedium brevicornu, Epimedium pubescens, Epimedium wushanense, and Epimedium koreanum.

Epimedium is part of the Berberidaceae family and goes by many names — fairy wings, horny goat weed, or Yin Yang Huo in Chinese. These plants are mostly native to China, with a few species also found in other parts of Asia and the Mediterranean. Known for their delicate, spider-like flowers that bloom in spring, Epimedium species are naturally deciduous. Among them, one particular variety is commonly used as a dietary supplement today.
