HORSE TONIC:
this blend has expectorant, lymphatic, circulatory, and anti microbial herbs. A true tonic
contains :
milk thistle, dandelion, mullein, nettle, turmeric ,rosehips ,peppermint...4 pounds
Milk Thistle: S. marianum is by far the more widely known species. It is believed to give some remedy for liver diseases(e.g. viral hepatitis) and an extract, silymarin, is used in medicine. The adverse effect of the medicinal use of milk thistle is loose stools.
Dandelion: Dandelion contains Luteolin, an antioxidant, and has demonstrated antioxidant properties without cytotoxicity.
Mullein: One of the best known species is Verbascum thapsus (Great mullein), which is used as a herbal remedy for sore throat, cough and lung diseases.
Nettle: Because it contains 3,4-divanillyltetrahydrofuran, certain extracts of the nettle are used by bodybuilders in an effort to increase free testosterone by occupying sex-hormone binding globulin.
Termeric: Recent studies have shown that turmeric can be effective in fighting a number of STDs including chlamydia and gonorrhea.
^ Also found to be useful in treating certain cancers. I like that one.
Rose hip: Rose hips contain vitamins A, D and E, and antioxidant flavonoids.
As a herbal remedy, rose hips are attributed with the ability to prevent urinary bladder infections, and assist in treating dizziness and headaches. Rose hips are also commonly used externally in oil form to restore firmness to skin by nourishing and astringing tissue.
Peppermint: Peppermint, like many spices and herbs, is believed to have medicinal properties when consumed. It is said that it helps against upset stomachs, inhibits the growth of certain bacteria, and can help smooth and relax muscles when inhaled or applied to the skin. Other health benefits are attributed to the high manganese, vitamin C and vitamin A content; as well as trace amounts of various other nutrients such as fibre, iron, calcium, folate, potassium, tryptophan, magnesium, omega-3 fatty acids, riboflavin, and copper.
So yeah, nothing in there with viagra-like properties.
I think your Jamaican friend was lying to you. Or she thinks you have chlamydia and/or gonorrhea.
