[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

[Icariin in Epimedium Extract]

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.

Macromolecule rap DUHDUHDUHDUHDUH

Oh organic compounds their pretty sweet
contains a carbon base it’s neat.
Carbons have three parts consisting of molecules
Monosaccharides, disaccharides, polysaccharides yeah pretty cool
RNA nucleotides?
Denise, cytosine, uracil, and guanine.
DNA nucleotides?
Denise, cytosine, guanine, and adenine

DNA and RNA are
Nucleic
Acids

Basic composition of nucleotides are
Nitrogenous base
Sugar
Phosphate group

20 amino acids exist in the world
RNA is a polynucleotide while DNA is a double helix, swirled.
Nonpolar means it has no charge
My fats are Nonpolar, are yours?
Amino acids, the subunits of proteins
Linked by a peptide bond yah it’s in our genes

Phospholipids are in cell walls
They form the wall in all
The heads of these guys are hydrophilic
However (however) the tails of these guys are hydrophobic.

Disaccharides form from 2 monosaccharides
In a process called dehydration reaction.
Polysaccharides are a starch which forms energy for plants
And cellulose which structures plant cell walls

Triglycerides are fats (echoes out)
