Deer horns, an ideal option for sexual dysfunction in men
What are deer horns(Lu Jiao Jiao)? Medicinally it mainly refers to the gelatin boiled from the ossified antler horn in Cervus elaphus Linnaeus or Cervus nippon Temminck, which are animals in the family Cervidae. So, other names of it include deerhorn, Deer Antler Glue, Colla Cornus Cervi, Cornu Cervi Degelatinatum, Deerhorn Glue, and so on. By the way, Lu Rong (deer antler velvet) is a different Chinese herb though they literally are the same thing. To put it simply, Lu Jiao is the older form of Lu Rong, which refers to the tender horns of bucks. That is to say, it is harvested when it is the horn is covered with velvet, still bleeding, and not ossified yet. And popular deer antler products include deer antler extract spray, pills, supplement, powder, essence, jelly, juice, tea, and so on.
Horn of Cervus elaphus Linnaeus is usually divided into 4 to 6 branches, 50 to 120cm in length, 3 to 6cm in diameter, and with discoid base, which has irregular tubercles above and sparse small holes around. Surface is brown or brownish and shiny, and with smooth horn apex and tuberculate middle and lower parts. Outer ring of cross section is osseous and white or slightly brown; middle part is mostly taupe or gray and with honeycomb-like holes. It is hard, odorless, and slightly salty.
Deer horn benefits
Deer antlers are often used as dog chews. Apparently it is overkill. As mentioned previously, this herb has long been used for consumptive disease, aching lower back and knees, Nocturnal Emission, uterine bleeding, vaginal discharge, etc.
It acts like velvet antlers but the price is much cheaper. Hence, it is often used as the substitute for deer antler velvet. But it should be mentioned at this point that shed antlers have relatively weaker efficacy. Accordingly it won’t stir up the fire and invigorate yang. Medicinally it is often cut into extremely thin slices, and then consumed in the forms of decoction, powder, or pills. By the way, raw deer antler is preferred in the cases of supporting Yang, invigorating the circulation of blood, getting over the tiredness, and diminishing swelling. In comparison, prepared one or gelatin is better in warming and tonifying liver and kidney and nourishing essence and blood. For instance, Sexual Dysfunction in men often falls into the scope of deficiency of yang and kidney essence, in which the raw one is an ideal option.

Create calm and order in your home using elements of feng shui
Create calm and order in your home using elements of feng shui
The presence of Buddha creates instant tranquility. It is often suggested to bring a Buddha image or replica into your home. Aroma therapy is another calming feng shui practice. The daily use of essential oils will help purify, relax, energize and also create a very sensual ambiance. Art is also extremely important in feng shui and is thought to improve the energy of both home and office. Make sure the art you select fits the needs of the room.
A bedroom or bathroom, for example, should have artwork that is sensual and soothing – watercolors of photographs of nature. Family rooms and offices fare better with art that energizes; filled with bright and vibrant colors and images. The tone of the art must fit the tone of the room. Candles support the fire element and are a must for every home. You may want to consider a small fountain for your home. The fountain supports that water element, with the soothing water energy thus creating a most tranquil and peaceful energy.
Bamboo is a very important feng shui element. It’s not only beautiful, offering up the earth element, but is considered to be a symbol of good luck. The plant is easy to take care of and is thought to teach the ultimate wisdom – how to be both flexible and hollow as to allow the spirit to flow freely and heal your being.
