Yohimbe is an
evergreen tree that
grows in western
Africa in Nigeria,
Cameroon, the Congo
and Gabon.
The bark of the tree
contains the active
compounds called
alkaloids. The
principal alkaloid
is called yohimbine.
Yohimbe has been one
of the most popular
supplements for men
and women for years.
When ingested, the
body
converts it to
yohimbine and
assimilates it into
the bloodstream.
Similar alkaloids
also play a role.
What an awesome
supplement! Its
popularity has been
ignited not only by
it's claimed effects
as an aphrodisiac
and
hallucinogen, but
also new research
that shows it could
be an herb with very
effective
antioxidant
potential. Research
shows it is a
vasodilator, which
means that it
increases blood flow
to the extremities
and appendages.
