Description
Learn about Damiana
Our favourite herb! Damiana is a kidney tonic, antidepressant and extremely effective aphrodisiac for women. Boosts mood and lowers stress.
Botanical name: Turnera diffusa
Other names: Turnera aphrodisiaca
Damiana, our favourite herb, was used by the Aztecs for impotency and Mexican women were also known to use the fragrant leaves in a tea to stimulate love making. The Damiana plant is so important that it has been classified in Mexico as a “national treasure” and now a prohibited export as a live plant.
Damiana affects the psyche, producing a mild emotional uplift that can last for up to one and a half hours. Some damiana before bed relaxes one for love-making and promotes pleasant dreams (quite possibly erotic within the first seven days)! Three-dimensional effects and colour appreciation may also be heightened.
