This ingredient has been used since ancient times. Kapikachhu (Mucuna pruriens) is a tropical legume also known as velvet bean, cowitch and cowhage.1 It is a constituent of more than 200 indigenous drug formulations.2 Although heralded as an aphrodisiac in Ayurvedic medicine, Kapikachhu benefits span a wide range that include:
- Increases libido.
- Increases sperm count in men and ovulation in women.
- Acts as a restorative nutrient for the nervous system.
- Increases blood circulation to the genitals.
- Decreases symptoms of stress and anxiety. Calms nerves.
- Reduces inflammation.
- Strengthens and tones the sexual glands.
- Increases stamina.
- Releases bound up testosterone, increasing level of bio-available testosterone.
- Reduces fat and improves muscle tone. (By supporting healthy testosterone levels, Kapikachhu supports anabolic metabolism, increasing your tendency to burn fat and to build muscle.)
Plus, Kapikachhu benefits offer a natural way to replenish your supply of L-dopa, the precursor to dopamine. Dopamine is often associated with pleasure yet it plays a critical role in muscle control. Full-blown dopamine deficiency is known as Parkinson's disease.
And that's not all, research shows Mucuna extract is beneficial for reducing cholesterol, lowering blood sugar levels, and enhancing mental alertness--all without stimulating the central nervous system.
