[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.

In this video I will show you how to make a red cabbage pH indicator. This is a very interesting experiment that is very simple.

What you will need:
Red cabbage
Distilled water (Reverse osmosis will work too)
A stove or heat source

First cut the cabbage leaves into small pieces and add them to distilled water and bring to a boil, let it boil for 2 minutes and then turn off heating and let cool slowly.

Now you have your indicator and some cabbage pieces. Use a strainer or coffee filter to remove particles.

The deep purple solution is your indicator you can refrigerate it for short term use or add 15% volume of alcohol (im using 91% isopropanol)

You can test the indicator by adding acids and bases.
In an acid environment it turns red (NaHSO4, HCl, Citic acid etc…)
In a neutral environment its purple (Distiled H2O)
In mild bases it is blue (Sodium Acetate)
In weak bases it is blue green (NaHCO3)
I medium strong bases it is dark green (Na2CO3)
In very strong bases it is yellow (NaOH)

The active chemical in the indicator is Anthocyanins. They change color in acid and basic environments. Red cabbage is high in Anthocyanins but other plants like raspberrys, grapes, and purple corn have similar chemicals that change color in pH.

Thanks for watching!
