pharmacological action
1.Effects on sexual function
Epimedium extract supplement has a certain effect of promoting gonadal function. Flavonoid components such as icariin have been shown to tonify the kidney for Zhuang Yang, 30-1000 μ G / l may promote estradiol secretion from granulosa cells of follicles at 1000 μ G / L) can promote corticosterone secretion from adrenocortical cells. Meanwhile, EPS can raise gonadal hormone levels, mainly FSH.
2.To improve immune function
Lymphocyte transformation was inhibited by 50% methanol extract of Epimedium pubescens. Total flavonoids from Herba Epimedii extract supplementation can skew the function of forming cells and antibodies in "" Yang Deficiency "" mice, and obviously enhance human T cell immunity. Antioxidant
Both EPS and EI showed antioxidant properties enhancing the activity of antioxidant enzymes and reducing the effect of free radical products.

Icariin can directly relax vascular smooth muscle and can dilate coronary, femoral, and cerebral arteries. Mechanism of action is inhibition of calcium ion influx action outside vascular smooth muscle cells.
