Swanson Horny Goat Weed Extract, 500mg
Swanson Horny Goat Weed Extract 500mg is a standardised herbal capsule from the Swanson Superior Herbs range. Horny goat weed earned its unusual name from a folk story about a farmer who noticed how lively his goats became after grazing on the plant, and it has since become a traditional herb for both men and women.
Key features
- Standardised horny goat weed extract
- Set at 10% total icariins
- Icariins are flavonoids found in the plant
- 500mg per capsule
- Part of the Swanson Superior Herbs line
Standardising the extract means each capsule carries a consistent level of icariins rather than an amount that changes from batch to batch. Horny goat weed often appears in combination formulas, and this single-herb version lets you take it on its own.
Available in a pot of 120 capsules.
