Yohimbe's popularity has been ignited by new research that shows it could be an herb with very effective antioxidant potential. Research shows it is a vasodilator, which means that it increases blood flow to the extremities and appendages. In other words, it can support healthy libido in men and women. In addition (as if that wasn't enough), yohimbe has also been shown to help maintain healthy arteries. Yohimbe also has been shown to decrease fat synthesis in the body by increasing fatty acid mobilization.
