What’s Epimedium Extract Powder
Horny goat weed (Epimedium) is a traditional herbal supplement used for libido, erectile dysfunction, and osteoporosis, largely driven by the active compound icariin. While promising for sexual health, evidence is largely based on animal studies, with limited, high-quality human trials confirming these benefits. It may cause side effects like dizziness, dry mouth, or rapid heartbeat, and can interact with medications.

Horny goat weed, also called “yin yang huo” is a plant used in traditional Chinese medicine. 2 It is also known as Epimedium, or herbal “Viagra.” In addition to treating sexual dysfunction, horny goat weed has also been used to treat other conditions including osteoarthritis and multiple sclerosis.
