Yohimbe powder

[phoenixphyre]

I found this "backwoods" herbal store where they sold pure Yohimbe. I picked up a sandwich bag full (for only $6.50) but the problem is that I don't know how much to take as I have no way of gauging the strength.

Does anyone know how to test it?

Thanks in advance...

there should be something on the label saying "standardized for XX% yohimbine hcl"... if not, i think you are out of luck as herbs can be standardized for different percentages of an active ingredient, and without info from the manufacturer you are guessing

That's what I figured...

Thanks again.

[phoenixphyre]

Don't know if it Yohimbe HCl...

This is what it looks like...

pic didn't attach the first time; here it is...

 

[doggy]

nope, thats ground up bark...

 

[phoenixphyre]

so is the bark good for anything?

 

[doggy]

it could be, it all depends how much of the active ingredient yohimbine is in it...

That brings me back to the problem of the inability of testing it...damn! :^/
