Yohimbe Description
Yohimbe - Yohimbe
is a South African herb that is widely thought to have excellent
aphrodisiac qualities. For centuries people in western Africa have
used tree bark, from the Corynanthe Yohimbe tree, to enhance sexual
performance and sensual response. There is no question that Yohimbe
is a mood enhancer, in that it reduces anxiety and depression.
Yohimbe does raise blood pressure, so there are some drawbacks.
The usual
regimen for taking Yohimbe is to use it in tandem with other
supplements, such as Saw Palmetto and Ginseng to take advantage of a
synergistic effect. There is some danger involved in taking Yohimbe
in high doses because it does have a hallucinogenic effect at those
levels.
Despite this downside, side effects are relatively rare with
Yohimbe.
