Effects of Damiana

Damiana is an ancient and well-known herbal remedy, most notably as a libido enhancer. Take a damiana infusion prepared by steeping a tablespoon of the leaves in a cup of boiling water for 10 minutes.

Aphrodisiac

• Damiana's astringent nature is mildly irritating to the genito-urinary system, which causes stimulation that results in increased libido in many users. Indeed, this has been the primary use of the herb in many cultures.

Euphoria

• You may experience a type of euphoria that borders on the effects induced by low levels of marijuana usage. Be careful when drinking damiana tea before you are familiar with the ways in which your body will respond to it.

Nerve Tonic

• This herb is also frequently used as a nerve tonic due to its calming and nerve-strengthening effects. It eases tension headaches and fights exhaustion as well.

Colon Cleanse

• Damiana stimulates muscle contractions within the abdominal tract, producing a subtle laxative effect.

Urinary Astringent

• Within the genito-urinary system, damiana acts as an astringent and detoxifier, tackling preexisting urinary tract diseases.
