About this species
Pfaffia glomerata is a medicinal plant native to Argentina, Bolivia. Cerrado, and Pantanal in Brazil.
Pfaffia glomerata is considered an aphrodisiac, potentially due to the presence of β-ecdysone in its roots. This steroid is thought to influence libido.
Pfaffia glomerata contains gallic acid, pfaffic acid, glomeric acid, oleanolic acid, saponins, anthraquinones, tannins, flavonoids, rubrosterone, and ecdysterone, in addition to primary metabolites such as inulin-type fructans and fructooligosaccharides.
