Damiana Plant

MOVE OVER VIAGRA AND MAKE ROOM FOR DAMIANA

Although this herb has uses that go beyond that of an aphrodisiac it's contribution to the libido is the topic of today.This small green shrub with it's yellow flowers has been used by the Mayan people for centuries. It's name comes from Aphrodite, the greek goddess of love. If you are a man battling problems of sterility, impotence or prostate this is the herb for you. It stimulates testosterone to help you fight these problems.If premature ejaculation is your problem then give damiana a try.

If you are a woman with infertility problems then this is the answer.Not only will it help with an irregular menstrual cycle but it will help ease the many hormonal problems we go through like hot flashes........The increased sexual performance by taking damiana is not just an old wives tale but has been clinically tested on rats.You won't be able to use the excuse "I have a headache" because dimiana works on a deep level bringing balance to the body and strengthens the nervous system.

Although there is said to be no scientific evidence to support it's use as a aphrodisiac, it's reputation for this use has ancient roots.I visited one site to find more background information on damiana and learned that it is smoked in place of cigarettes. Some compare it's calming effect to smoking cannabis.

Other Uses:

Depression, menstrual cramps, appetite, urinary infections, frigidity,hangovers, herbal cigarette.........

Properties:

Vitamins B1, B2, C, iron, magnesium, potassium, phosphorus, selenium, silica, zinc, sodium...........

WARNING:

As with all drugs please consult your doctor before introducing any unfamiliar drug into your system that may interact with on going ailments.
