PRICE: $13.95 for each 60 capsule bottle (1/2 gram per vegi-capsule) Barlowe's Herbal Elixirs proudly offers a powerful 50% Osthole Cnidium Monnieri Extract.  Click on this link: Cnidium Monnieri Extract COA, to view the Certificate of Analysis of this particular batch. Cnidium Monnieri has been a popular remedy in Asian medicine for millennia, being first described 2,000 years ago. Today it is mainly used to treat skin problems, to strengthen bones and as an aphrodisiac for both men and women. It naturally increases nitric oxide release, increasing blood flow to the penis and clitoris, and it is also useful for increasing "pump" during exercise.  These vegetable-derived capsules (Vegan, Kosher and Halal certified) are filled by hand with a manual encapsulation machine, not with a high speed automatic machine, and thus, only pure, unadulterated Cnidium Monnieri Extract is in the capsules. Capsules produced with high speed machines in herbal remedy and vitamin "factories" contain several other ingredients, including preservatives because so many bottles of product are produced at one time, and lubricants to ensure that the machines will run faster and more efficiently. Check their labels! Also, Barlowe's Herbal Elixirs is one of the very few manufacturers that still pack their products in glass whenever possible, even though glass is more expensive. Barlowe believes that chemicals can leach out of plastic containers and contaminate the contents, and that the use of glass is much better for the environment. Besides its well known aphrodisiac properties, Cnidium has shown promising activity against cancerous tumors, asthma and osteoporosis in animal studies, though the clinical implications of these findings are not yet known. In one investigation, published in the Chinese journal Chung-kua Chung Ya Yao Tsa Chih  in 1990, chemicals in Cnidium called coumarins protected guinea pigs from the effects of bronchial asthma, which the animals experienced after inhaling histamine. The researchers also demonstrated that the coumarins can relax the tracheal muscles of guinea pigs in test tube experiments. A possible link between Cnidium and osteoporosis was examined in two rodent studies published in the Chinese journal Chung-kuo Yao Li Hsueh Pao  in 1994 and 1997. Both studies suggest that Cnidium can help to prevent osteoporosis. Research: Anti-tumor Activity of Cnidium Monnieri Study on Rabbits Shows Positive Effect of Cnidium on Erectile Function Cnidium Monnieri Helps Prevent Osteoporosis in Ovariectomized Female Rats Testimonials: Dear Barlowe, I ordered some Maca from you last month and I really like it. But you sent a sample of your Cnidium Monnieri as well and that stuff is amazing. My wife and I are very happy with both products and your pricing is excellent. Keep up the good work! W.F., Omaha, Nebraska Barlowe, I tried 2 of the cnidium sample you sent but I thought it was having no effect after almost 2 hours, so being an adventurous type, I took 2 more. I was thinking that if this doesn't work,  no harm no foul.  I didn't pay for it anyway. Granted the dose was now twice what was recommended but another 1/2 hour passed and I popped the hardest erection in the history of mankind. Prescription ED meds work very well for me but I have never taken anything before that pushed the boner envelope to its absolute limit. And no side effects! Have had great success with xantho also.
