It has small, white flowers that have a pungent fragrance similar to jasmine. Muira puama (Ptychopetalum olacoides) has been used for centuries due to its benefits. In Brazil it has been used since ancient times to support healthy intimacy. It is interesting to note that this herb earned the names "Warrior Wood" and "Potency Wood" in the northern Amazon areas of Brazil where it grows wild. It is considered a tonic. The entire plant is used in folkloric preparations, and many active constituents are found in the wood and roots. Muira Puama contains sterols, including beta-sitosterol, which are building blocks of sex hormones such as testosterone, which may account for its activity. Muira Puama is listed in the British Herbal Pharmacopoeia, and is recommended for intimate support.
