THE PRINCIPLES OF LUST - PART 2 - NATURE

GOOD THINGS COME IN SMALL PACKAGES


It seems that these days we are absolutely obsessed with bigger and better everything. Don't get me wrong, it's not always a bad thing.
And whilst doing my research, I was absolutely amazed at just how much STUFF is for sale. Things to:
make it bigger,
make it last longer and
go on for hours on end.
In fact, I had to close down my primary e-mail account a couple of months ago, because my in-box was being inundated with everything from...
the best viagra,
penis enlargement apparatus,
the best sex pharmacy,
bigger boobs,
better orgasms.
I'm really serious.
...At least 5 hits a day. Talk about spam-a-rama!

I have here, some wicked, but well known little secrets from mother nature herself.
Herbs, and plants that can be dried, crushed or grated, and packaged into little pills or, infused in water, or alcahol for safe and easy consumption.

All of them legal.

What is NOT legal however, is to slip anything into an unsuspecting, or unwilling participants drink...(I can feel my blood boiling as I write this, when I think of stories I've heard...NOT COOL.) I will hunt anyone down if I find out they are misusing any information to gain an unfair, and illegal advantage over anybody

Little surprises of lust that will give you




MORE BOUNCE TO THE OUNCE





With the exception of the first one, all are easily obtainable from a good health food store, or any online delivery service.


The Erotic Palm, from Cusco, In Peru.

the erotic palm tree


I know, it's a long way to travel, and I can not for the life of me find information about this well hung tree, that the locals swear by. The indigenous people of the rainforest cut the downward growing roots off, and boil them. Allegedly, men with erection and libido problems drink the 'tea.'

I can't find it's name. Nothing. Just...”The Erotic Palm Tree” Obviously, a well kept secret.
Until now maybe.

The roots of the "erotic palm" are said to work better than Viagra.
nothing like a stiff brew to cure your ails.

(ok...2 weeks later I finally found something...It is known as Huacra Pona)
Iriartea ventricosa
or
Iriartea deltoidea

DAMIANA

Turnera diffusa

The Curious Sexual Effects of Damiana Tea


Photobucket

Damiana is a plant that grows in Mexico, Central America, West Indies and South America and has been traditionally known and used as an Aphrodisiac. It was made into a sweet drink by Mexican Indians and drank to enhance love making.

CONSTITUENTS OF DAMIANA

Photobucket


The main constituents of damiana include: Albuminoids, alpha-copaene, alpha-pinene, arbutin, barterin, beta-pinene, beta-sitosterol, calamenene, caoutchouc, chlorophyll, 1,8-cineole, cymene, cymol, damianin, essential oil, gamma-cadinene, gonzalitosin-i, hexacosanol-1, luteolin, quinovopyranosides, tannins, tetraphyllin b, thymol, triacontane, and trimethoxyflavones.

Damiana Love Potion:
Boil 2 heaped tablespoons of the herb in two cups of water for five minutes, sweeten with honey and drink each evening for two weeks.

Damiana Liquor Love Potion:
Soak 25 grams of dried Damiana leaves in 500mls of Tequila (or Vodka) for 5 days. Pour off the liquids, strain and filter through a conical filter paper. Soak the remaining alcohol drenched leaves in 500mls of distilled or spring water for another 5 days. Pour off the liquids, strain and filter as before. Warm the water extracts to about 160ºF and dissolve in this half to one cup of honey. Then combine the alcoholic and aqueous extractions. It tastes exquisite and is most effective.


I have made Damiana brew in my time. I just don't think I was persistent enough with my efforts, and the taste can be somewhat strange to the unaccustomed palate...honey is the best sweetener. Oh, and you can roll this stuff up and smoke it if you are so inclined... It has a smell, very reminiscent of cannabis sativa, and can have mild euphoric effects. I can buy it fairly easily in Australia.


This is an entertaining read...some cold hard facts, plus a forum where people discuss smoking damiana...LOL








Horny Goat Weed

Epimedium sagittatum


Photobucket

What's In a Name

    Horny goat weed, or epimedium, has been used by the Chinese for centuries as an aphrodisiac. It was given its name when a goat herder noticed his goats going on a sexual rampage after eating certain weeds. It is only natural this enhancer of libido be named after those who discovered it: a herd of goats.
    The Enhancement Process
    Horny goat weed resembles testosterone in that it stimulates sexual desire and function. It inhibits the enzyme AChe, known for preventing the neurotransmitters responsible for sexual arousal from doing their job. Once the sexual neurotansmitters are allowed to continually reproduce in the brain, sexual desire is significantly increased and sensory nerves are stimulated.

NUTMEG

Myristica fragrans.

Photobucket

Nutmeg has been considered to be a useful medicine in a number of Asian societies. Among the Arabs it has been used to treat digestive problems and also been valued as an aphrodisiac
Nicholas Culpeper (1616-54), the famous English herbalist, attributes to nutmeg the capacity to induce sleep delirium. William Salmon, on the other hand, said that the oil of mace or nutmegs, if rubbed on the genitals, excited sexual passion (thereby echoing the Arabs' use of its aphrodisiac qualities).
Nutmeg's intoxicating properties have long been known in Europe but it never seems to have been a culturally significant psychoactive substance.
it has been a substitute for other substances that for one reason or another were unavailable or unaffordable. Thus prisoners, soldiers, seamen and struggling musicians were among its users. A jazz musician who played regularly with the legendary saxophonist Charlie Parker (known as 'Bird') recalled that: 'Bird introduced this nutmeg to the guys. It was a cheap and legal high. You can take it in milk or Coca-Cola.

In 1946, before his conversion to Islam, Malcolm X used nutmeg whilst in jail when his supplies of marijuana ran out. In his autobiography he wrote:
'I first got high in Charlestown [prison] on nutmeg. My cellmate was among at least a hundred nutmeg men who, for money or cigarettes, bought from kitchen worker inmates penny matchboxes full of stolen nutmeg. I grabbed a box as though it were a pound of heavy drugs. Stirred into a glass of cold water, a penny matchbox full of nutmeg had the kick of three or four reefers.'

When the authorities became aware of such uses of nutmeg it was removed from many prison kitchens.
nutmeg has been demoted to a 'pseudo-hallucinogen' by many authorities.

Wow...I BET YOU'LL ALL BE LINING UP TO TASTE GRANNYS EGGNOG THIS CHRISTMAS...

Warning...ingesting too much Nutmeg will cause very uncomfortable symptoms such as nausea and stomach cramping.





GINSENG


Ginseng refers to species within Panax,

Photobucket

The English word ginseng derives from the Chinese term rénshēn (simplified: 人参; traditional: 人蔘), literally "man root" (referring to the root's characteristic forked shape, resembling the legs of a man).

Ginseng has captivated Asian medicine for more than 5,000 years. It was even prized more than gold during the Qing dynasty of ancient China.

Authentic ginseng, that which comes from the species Panax, is commonly used as a healing agent to treat fatigue, reduce stress, fight infection and cure impotence.

As a potent aphrodisiac ginseng was mentioned in the ancient medical book of India, The Atherva Veda which states: “seed that is poured into the female that forsooth is the way to bring forth a son .... the strength of the horse, the mule, the goat and the ram, moreover, the strength of the bull (ginseng) bestows on him ..... This herb will make thee so full of lusty strength that thou shalt, when thou art excited, exhale heat as a thing on fire.”





I will cover the very misunderstood SPANISH FLY HERE. If only to clear up myths and misconceptions, and to highlight the danger of this little critter.



Spanish fly,

or cantharides


Photobucket



Spanish fly doesn't actually come from a fly. It is made from the cantharides beetle, also called the blister beetle. The name comes from an intense irritant they generate as a defense mechanism. The beetles are collected, killed, dried and powdered, and the result is called Spanish fly.
Cantharides, being a natural inflammatory agent, can burn the mouth and throat and cause abdominal pain, vomiting, diarrhea and kidney damage even in small doses. It also strongly irritates the genito-urinary tract, and sex is one way to calm that itch. The stories regarding medical application of cantharides would be listed as "not to be believed," except that they are true. In 1752 a Frenchman was prescribed 2 drams of cantharides for a fever and in the next two months bedded his wife at least 87 times. Another man with a similar prescription "knew his wife", as the Bible puts it, 40 times in one night.
As little as one thousandth of an ounce of the active chemical in cantharides is sufficient to cause kidney failure and death, making it one of the most dangerous substances ever to be associated with sexuality. It is classified medically as a Class One poison and a blistering agent. Fortunately, it is also illegal nearly worldwide.


So NO NO NO to Spanish Fly


SOME OTHER TITILATING READING...



It's a lot of reading I know. You can always just refer back to this if needed.

What I am more interested in, is if anyone is brave enough to spill their beans, and tell us their secrets, or to let us know about any other herbal remedies.

I know that there are plenty more out there.

I purposely left quite few out.
This is
all in the name of research, of course, and freedom of information.

I'm always willing to learn new things.
