Butea Superba, also known as "red Kwao Krua," is a climbing plant from the Fabaceae family (legumes), native to Thailand, India, and Vietnam. Used for centuries in traditional Thai medicine, it’s renowned as a male remedy to boost sexual vigor. Its tubers, rich in phytoandrogens, were traditionally consumed by older men to regain vitality and energy. It’s sometimes called the "Thai Viagra" due to its effects on sexual performance.
