Two Highlighted Herbs
There are several herbal formulas that can help you function better again. Two very well-known herbs are ginkgo biloba and licorice. Licorice is usually used for women and ginkgo biloba for men.
Licorice
Ideal for exhaustion, for example for the young mother. Licorice stimulates the female sex glands and is particularly suitable when the adrenal glands are exhausted. The adrenal glands are stimulated by stress (both mental and physical) and produce adrenaline and noradrenaline in response. In ancient times, this was a useful reaction to release energy needed for a fight-or-flight response in crisis situations. Prolonged stress exhausts the adrenal glands. The result is a chronically tired and exhausted feeling, increasing despondency and irritability. In this case, licorice root can offer a solution. It contains a lot of starch and sugar, which provides energy. It strengthens the adrenal glands. Because licorice contains many plant estrogens, it also regulates the menstrual cycle.
A disadvantage of licorice is that it should not be used with high blood pressure. It causes the body to retain more fluid.
Ginkgo Biloba
The Chinese have used the leaves and nuts of the ginkgo biloba tree for centuries to increase sexual vitality, especially for men, and for longevity, a long life. Researchers have confirmed what the Chinese have said for centuries: long-term intake of ginkgo biloba produces remarkable physical effects. This includes improving blood flow to all vital organs without raising blood pressure. Ginko biloba can therefore have a positive effect on memory and general as well as sexual vitality.
