[What is Epimedium?]

Epimedium extract is a popular aphrodisiac supplement and herbal sexual performance enhancer.It has a long history of traditional use in China for the alleviation of erectile dysfunction and for improving libido and fertility.

Also known as Horny Goat Weed, this supplement supposedly got its name after a farmer noticed that his flock of goats were particularly aroused after eating flowers of a specific type. These Epimedium flowers contain icariin, which is a natural compound that increases blood flow to sexual organs and promotes sex drive. Icariin has been found to increase Nitric Oxide synthesis as well as inhibiting the activity of the PDE-5 enzyme

Epimedium extracts powder contain an active phytochemical called icariin.Icariin has been observed to exhibit a number of useful traits, including renoprotective (liver protecting) hepatoprotective (kidney protecting), cardioprotective (heart protecting) and neuroprotective (brain protecting) effects.

It is also an antioxidant and can cause vasodilation. It exhibits antimicrobial characteristics and is thought to act as an aphrodisiac.

Icariin is classified as a flavonol glycoside, which is a type of flavonoid. Specifically, icariin is the 8-prenyl derivation of kaempferol 3,7-O-diglucoside, a prevalent and important flavonoid.

How to Make Fruit and Vegetable Powders for Skin & Hair with a Dehydrator.

Making fresh produce into a dry powder is an easy way to extend the shelf life so you have these items whenever you need them. Fresh is ideal, but not always realistic! Processing produce this way preserves the nutrients and allows you to use these ingredients in a variety of ways. I’ve got some easy steps for breaking down different types of produce into small pieces so they can be dehydrated thoroughly and ground to a fine powder. Store in an airtight container for 3-6 months, freeze if desired.

Mix these fruit and veggie powders with water, juice, yogurt, agave or milk for a quick facial, spot treatment or hair rinse. For a face mask, combine with any varietal of clay. Find different types of clay + our own Fresh Masks made with real fruits and veggies on https://SimplecareProducts.com
