What is Spanish Fly?
The word aphrodisiac, usually used to describe substances that increase sexual desire, is derived from the name of the Greek goddess of love, Aphrodite. Man has been hunting for an effective one since at least the time of the ancient Greeks. Along the way, there have been many contenders, from some of which still have a reputation (chocolate and raw oysters) to those long-forgotten (Bufo toad) (West, 2015). If it weren’t for a controversial mention in an old Bill Cosby special, “Spanish fly” may well have been one that fell into obscurity.To get more news about spanish gold fly, you can visit herbal-hall.com official website.
What is Spanish fly, and does it work?
If you ever come across a product that claims to contain Spanish fly, don’t. Just don’t. Most of the products with that name available for purchase are just trying to borrow a little reputation from the once-famous insect and contain none of the actual bug or its active substance, cantharidin.
But in the off chance that it does contain some of the bug, it can be toxic, dangerous, and even deadly.
Spanish flies aren’t actually flies. They’re a type of blister beetle, a small, iridescent creature that will cause your skin to bubble and peel, hence the name. Long ago, when medicine and quackery overlapped, this substance was used for everything from epiglottitis (a sort of throat condition) to murdering your enemies. And while taking it by mouth or applying it to your genitals may get you hot and bothered, that’s because it’s damaging your body, not cause it’s getting you in the mood for sex.
These insects have been used in traditional Chinese medicine for over 2,000 years (Wang, 1989). Cantharidin’s reputation for being an aphrodisiac likely stems from reports that, among other horrifying side effects, it can cause priapism, a painful, persistent, and dangerous erection that won’t go away (Till, 1981).
But cantharidin is extremely poisonous and can cause injury or death when ingested. There are reports of cantharidin poisoning and death at varying amounts, leading researchers to believe that even small quantities can kill you (Nickolls, 1954). Reports of victims of cantharidin poisoning aren’t ancient history, either. In 2013, a 23-year-old wound up hospitalized after eating one of these beetles as part of a bet (Cotovio, 2013).
There are still products that claim to contain Spanish fly on the market today, but most of them likely do not. Cantharidin, though, is sometimes used off-label by dermatologists as a treatment for a fungal skin condition called molluscum because it literally peels your skin off.
So bottom line? No matter how adventurous you are, you should never ingest Spanish fly or anything that claims to contain Spanish fly or cantharidin. Reported side effects of ingesting cantharidin include miscarriage, priapism, convulsions, bleeding (including vaginal and rectal bleeding), vomiting blood, kidney damage, seizures, heart problems, blood in the urine, and a very dangerous condition called disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC), where blood clots start to form throughout your body .
