May Enhance Sexual Function
Horny goat weed is often used for erectile dysfunction. Research shows that icariin, a compound in the plant, inhibits PDE5, similar to Viagra. Some animal studies suggest it may improve blood flow to the penis.
May Prevent Artery Plaque Build-Up
Icariin has shown potential in preventing atherosclerosis, the buildup of fats and cholesterol in arteries, in animal studies. Its cholesterol-lowering, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant properties may help, but human studies are needed to confirm these benefits.
May Alleviate Postmenopausal Symptoms
Horny goat weed has been used in traditional Chinese medicine for menopause symptoms. Icariin mimics estrogen, which may help. A study found postmenopausal women consuming Herba Epimedii extract had higher estrogen levels and reduced cholesterol. Additionally, it may support bone health, reducing the risk of osteoporosis and fractures in postmenopausal women.
