Ophiopogon continues as a widely used ingredient in herbal formulas because of its ability to alleviate inflammation, particularly in the prostate. The process in which inflammation is reduced is still under investigation, but scientists have discovered that the herb does not inhibited cyclooxygense-2 (COX-2) like other anti-inflammatory drugs. Ophiopogon contains several isolated compounds, i.e., Ophiopogon A through D that may inhibit prostate inflammation.

Ophiopogon increases an individual’s tolerance to oxygen deprivation while exhibiting antibacterial properties. The herb nourishes and moisturizes the lungs to increase stamina during intercourse and foreplay. Several users reported a slightly bitter-cold property in Ophiopogon that reduced irritability, mood swings and bad temper in both men and women.
