A look into the unique herbal extract known as Epimedium or as it is more commonly known Horny Goat Weed. This article will break down briefly the various different strengths of Horny Goat Weed so that the often forgot factor of purity can gain the importance it requires with this particular natural remedy.
Horny Goat Weed itself has been used for thousands of years as a natural remedy for low levels of libido and in recent years the means to extract this herb have advanced yielding much more effective extracts decade by decade.
There is now an abundance of products on the market selling off cheap extracts for low prices which leaves one askign themselves which one do I choose? and why?
The producers of these cheap Horny Goat Weed supplements will simply lable their product as just ‘Horny Goat Weed Capsules’ but there is a significant factor in which need to be noted as not all these extracts are the same thing. Horny Goat Weed produces its great benefits from containg a key ingredient called icariin, this ingredient is responsible for increasing nitric oxide and testosterone levels and is the power behind the extracts ablity to counteract low libido and low testosterone, especially in men.
Icariin is extracted at various strengths and this strength is illustraded as a percentage purity i.e. 10% being the weakest extract and approximately 60% being the purest extract. Most producers will either fail to state this or they will hide it in small print on the back of the packaging as they are selling the cheapest (weakest) grade of extract. Basically the higher grade of icariin extract you take the more effective at increasing libido and testosterone the capsules will be, so it is important to always check which percentage you require and which percentage you are receiving when you are going to buy icariin extracts.
The 10% icariin will be satidfactory for a small boost in libido i.e. you don’t have libido problems as such but you just want to try give your sex drive a nudge up. Then as you get into the middle ranges i.e. 30 – 40 percent you will get some nice increases in libido and this range is suitable for those who have a slight loss of sex drive or testosterone level. The 50-60% icariin range is the best you can get currently on the reail market and this is a great extract for those who wish to try a natural stimulant rather than prescription medicines. This upper grade is for people with definate low sex drive and is often also used by bodybuilders wishing to increase their testosterone levels.
