The list of benefits that come from taking He Shou Wu is long.
One of the top sayings about this herb is that it might help greying hair to get back to it's natural color.
The name means: He has black hair. The legend goes that 58 year old Mr. He was wondering in the forest one day when he came across a pair of vines entwined for more than 3 yards. He thought to himself that they appeared to be making love, and in a whimsical mood he dug up the root of the plant. The roots looked a bit like a man and a woman.
Mr. He who was impotent but always has wished to have kids of his own, dug up the roots, took it home and started using it. With time his white hair returned to its black color, but not only his hair changed, he had increased vitality, and lived on to have 12 children of his own and died by the age of 130 years.
