About the ingredients
- Damiana has a long traditional use in Central American herbal practice associated with desire and intimate wellbeing (Szewczyk 2014; evidence is lab and animal only). Tribulus is traditionally used in Ayurvedic and Chinese practice; human research is uncertain (Martimbianco 2020).
- Ginkgo leaf is traditionally used in Chinese herbal practice to support circulation.
- Panax ginseng has been studied for tiredness with promising but weak results (Arring 2018), and roseroot for fatigue with mixed results (Ishaque 2012; Olsson 2009). Maral root is traditionally used in Siberian herbal practice as a vitality tonic.
- Ashwagandha root extract may help with feelings of everyday stress (Akhgarjand 2022, low-certainty evidence), and passionflower tea improved self-rated sleep quality in a small study (Ngan 2011).
- Pu-erh contains natural caffeine, which with tea’s L-theanine has been studied for alertness (Owen 2008; Giesbrecht 2010).
- Clove and licorice root are traditional warming spices that round out the flavour; stevia sweetens naturally.
