Do we sell icariin powder/Horny Goat Weed extract powder?

For good reason, we purposely choose not to sell icariin/Horny Goat Weed extract as a stand-alone extract powder (i.e. powder that has not been encased within a capsule shell). Our decision not to sell icariin as a stand-alone powder is justified primarily by the following reason:

As with the vast majority of natural plant extracts; in order to gain maximum effect and thus maximum benefit from taking icariin/Horny Goat Weed, the extract powder must have adequate means to travel past and withstand a portion of the human stomach acids, therefore allowing the ingredients/flavonoids to be absorbed at the necessary level. If the extract powder does not have some form of protection from human stomach acids, then the level of active ingredients absorbed can (to varying extents) become impaired, and as result; lack bioavailability and efficacy.

It is for this very reason that World A.B.S produces icariin 60™ Horny Goat Weed in their specially designed 'icariinMAX Optimum Delivery' capsule shells.

World A.B.S 'icariinMAX Optimum Delivery' capsule shells are designed specifically to protect icariin extract powder from the stomach acids and deliver all manner of icariin's active ingredients/flavonoids to the small intestine in the most effective way possible. This imperative method of 'delivery' greatly increases the efficacy of the extract, thus allowing you to gain the best possible benefit from the active ingredients within.

Going beyond the fact that absorption of plant extract powder benefits substantially from having a suitable vehicle of delivery, we at 'Icariin Health' also lean away from selling 60% icariin/Horny Goat Weed extract in a stand-alone powder form, due to the following critical reasons:

• When not stored in the ideal environment/conditions, stand-alone extract powders are very susceptible to moisture damage. Icariin/Horny Goat Weed extract powder (when not encapsulated) needs to be consistently stored within the ideal conditions to avoid being damaged from ordinary levels of moisture within the air. This makes a pure powder supplement far less 'storage-friendly' for consumers. Capsules provide the icariin powder with an excellent barrier of protection from the everyday levels of moisture found within the air around us.
• The majority of people do not possess the suitable weighing/measuring equipment required to properly weigh-out/measure-out the correct amount of 60% icariin powder for the compulsory daily dosage. This usually results in people guessing as to how much of the extract powder they need to consume each day, and in turn leads to people either taking too little or too much of the extract powder, thus failing to keep their daily dosage consistent and effective.

As you can gather from the above information; there are numerous important advantages to producing icariin/Horny Goat Weed extract powder into capsule shells, advantages which greatly influence the level of benefit that you can gain from this amazing extract.
