Yarsha Gumba
Recently I have been hearing a lots about this herbal plant Yarsha Gumba, which are found in the western Nepal ( Darshula), and the sherpa who go trekking around the region bring them to Kathmandu,
The market value for ½ kg was 2 lakh 6 months ago, and now I hear its around 8 lakh.
A toll of Japanese entrepreneur went to the western part of Nepal and I guess brought large amount of these plants for their research.
Some people says taking these plants enhances the sexual performances and local from the western Nepal who have been taking them for long time says that they have no benefits or what so ever, however in Kathmandu these plants are sell in large amounts.
My uncle who works at the pharmaceutical company in the US (Pfizer) took a few sample to the States and handed to the researcher at his work, he didn’t mention the benefits of it, but the scientists are interested and wants more,
If any one has any information about it please share Probin Shrestha
