Damiana is a small plant with aromatic leaves found on dry, sunny, rocky hillsides in south Texas, Southern California, Mexico, and Central America. Damiana plant leaves have been used as an aphrodisiac and to boost sexual potency by the native peoples of Mexico, including the Mayan Indians. The two species used in herbal healing, both of which are referred to as damiana, are Turnera aphrodisiaca and Turnera diffusa. Historically damiana plant has been used to relieve anxiety, nervousness, and mild depression, especially if these symptoms have a sexual component. The herb is also used as a general tonic to improve wellness. Damiana has also been used traditionally to improve digestion and to treat constipation, as in larger doses it is thought to have a mild laxative effect.

Damiana Plant Research Update
Pharmacognostic standardization of Turnera aphrodisiaca Ward.
J Med Food. 2006 Summer;9(2):254-60. Pharmacognosy Division, University Institute of Pharmaceutical Sciences, Panjab University, Chandigarh, India.
Despite a long tradition of use in the treatment of various ailments, no systematic phytochemical and pharmacological work has ever been carried out on damiana plant. In the present investigation, various pharmacognostic standards for the damiana plant have been generated so that authentic Turnera. aphrodisiaca could be explored for its traditional claims. Microscopically, Turnera aphrodisiaca leaf showed the presence of abundant unicellular, warty, non-glandular trichomes, anomocytic stomata, and a large number of calcium oxalate crystals along the veins. Powdered stem of the damiana plant showed lignified spiral and pitted tracheidal vessels, and pericyclic fibers were observed in powder microscopy of stem. Total ash of the aerial parts of Turenera aphrodisiaca was approximately eight and four times more than acid-insoluble and water-soluble ash, respectively. The water-soluble extractive value of the damiana plant was slightly higher than its ethanol-soluble extractive value. Volatile oil content of Turnera aphrodisiaca was found to be 0.44% (wt/vol), the thin-layer chromatography of which exhibited seven spots using toluene:ethyl acetate (93:7 vol/vol) as mobile phase. Phytochemically, the damiana plant was found to contain alkaloids, cyanogenic glycosides, steroids, saponins, flavonoids, tannins, carbohydrates, and proteins.

Damiana Extract - preliminary study of its antioxidant activity.
Bioresour Technol. 2006 Aug;97(12):1387-91. Epub 2005 Oct 11. Departamento de Analises Clinicas e Toxicologicas, CCS, UFRN, 59.010-180 Natal, RN, Brazil.
Damiana is used in Brazilian folk medicine as an anti-inflammatory. Since this activity may be correlated with the presence of antioxidant compounds, a damiana leaf extract was evaluated for its radical scavenging capacity (RSC). Results indicate, through peroxidation suppression, that damiana extract exhibited greater antioxidative activity (77%) than alpha-tocopherol (58%). Phenolic compounds may be responsible for this antioxidant capacity.
