Medical Practitioner and Global Scientist, Dr. Richard Egan has described Aphrodisiacs as chemicals that aid in sexual activities, but lacking proper scientific evidence to support it.

Backing his assertion, he said there is ongoing research to understand the roles aphrodisiacs really play during sexual activities.

” In the scientific community, it is not yet accepted. There is no such thing as a robust evidence to support the fact that these Aphrodisiacs actually work but we also know that there are ongoing studies that is trying to establish it”.

He argued that Aphrodisiacs are needed to stimulate sexual desires Among people with sexual dysfunction problems

” It’s unisex. It works on women because Aphrodisiacs, are the central reason why we use them is just to help give us a drive so that Libido aspect and also desire aspect and it gives us a bit of arousal. So this is what we need because most human beings, those who have sexual dysfunction problems, it is basically needed”.
