From time immemorial, aphrodisiacs have been sold to increase sexual stimulation. Even today, the powdered horn of the rhinoceros is in great demand, as ginseng root powder. There is, however, no medical basis whatsoever for the various potions that have been declared aphrodisiacs throughout the ages. The efficacy of an aphrodisiac, if there is any, is entirely psychological. If one imagines that it is going to improve one’s potency, it may result in doing so. The only really effective aphrodisiacs, according to Dr. David Reuben, are drugs such as marijuana and LSD. Alcohol, if taken in small amounts, can also be an aphrodisiac in that it has a relaxing effect and removes many of the tensions and inhibitions that might otherwise be present.
