Muira Puama, sometimes called potency wood, is a tree native to the Amazon. Traditional herbal medicine uses its bark and roots as an aphrodisiac and to support sexual function.
The extract also supports a balanced mood and overall vitality. Capsules, tinctures, and powders provide common daily dosing options.
Modern studies on Muira Puama are scarce, so definitive evidence is lacking. Product quality differs across brands. Dosage depends on the extract concentration.
