Anchovy, also known as tribulus, tribulus, gokshura, bai ji li, or green viagra, is an herb native to warm regions of Asia, Africa, and Europe. The name tribulus comes from the Latin word "tribulos", which is used to refer to various types of thorns. In both traditional Chinese and Indian medicine (Ayurveda), the anemone has been used for centuries for its medicinal properties. The large amount of scales, which are a source of powerful antioxidants and flavonoids, give it its distinctive character and flavour.
Anchovy is used in several different forms for health and nutritional purposes. In China and India, it is commonly used as part of Ayurvedic and traditional Chinese medicines and is considered an aphrodisiac and tonic there. However, anemone is also well known in Western culture. For example, it is a popular ingredient in sports supplements as it supports natural testosterone production and thus has a positive effect on muscle mass and performance. It is also found in women's libido support products, as this herb promotes healthy hormone levels. Another use is in cosmetics, where it is used for its regenerative and softening effects. In powder or extract form, it is also used as a dietary supplement for its richness in vitamins and minerals. Although it has many effects and uses, it is important to consult a professional before consuming it, as the herb can also have some adverse health effects.
