[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.

Strong free-radical scavengers, they are known to affect oxidative stress (a factor in oncogenesis/carcinogenesis), a potent contributor to cell deterioration and longevity.

Biology (Grade 9): High School Learning: CELL WALL:
Cell Wall- A Protective layer surrounding the cell on the outside of the plasma membrane.
Cell Wall is only present in plant cell.
Cell Wall consists of 3 layers.
- Middle lamellla.- Outer wall.
- Primary Wall- Formed after middle lamella and consists of a skeleton of cellulose microfibrils, embedded in gel like matrix of pectic compounds, hemicellulose, and glucoprotein.

- Secondary Wall:
Formed after cell enlargement is completed , provides compression strength.

- Plasmodesmata: Connection between cells,A microscopic channels through the cell walls and lamella.

Cell Wall and Turgor:
- Cell Wall is made of neutral and charged polysacchrides absorbs H2O because it has a hypotonic environment.

- Increased H2O in the cell – Turgor Pressure. If a plant cell is turgid . it is very form , a healthy state in the most plant,If plant is flacid . it is isotonic solution.
