Functions
Yang tonic, sexual tonic
Qualities
Signathus, or Sea Dragon, is an extremely powerful Yang
tonic. It provides significant Yang to the Kidney, which
results in sexual power. It is mainly used by me to
increase sexual strength. It is used as a primary herb
in many Yang tonic preparations aimed at keeping older
men in peak sexual condition, and even by younger men to
maximize potential.
Preparation
and Utilization
Sea Dragon, be it Sygnathus or Solenognathus, may be
used with any other tonic herbs. It is commonly combined
with Kidney tonics, both Yin and Yang.
Primary
Combinations
Combine with:
1. Deer Antler, Sea Horse, Gecko, Ginseng, Lycium,
Schizandra, Cuscuta, Cynomorium, Morinda, etc. to tonify
the sexual organs
2. With Jujube and Cordyceps for scorfula and goiter
3. With Gelatinum Asini to tonify the Yin
Varieties and Grading
Common Sygnathus is about 5 to 6 inches long. So long as
they look like they are in good shape, they will do the
job. Their is another version of Sea Dragon that can
occasionally be found in Chinese herb shops that is even
better. These larger Sea Dragons are actually
Solenognathus hardwickii (Gray), a close relative of
Sygnathus. Solenognathus is always considered premium
and is much more expensive. They provide absolutely
awesome Kidney Yang power. Solegnathus gets a five-star
rating. Sea Dragon is a close relative of Sea Horse. Sea
Horse has almost identical functions, but is generally
not quite as strong as Sygnathus.
Contraindications
Men, do not use if you are mateless. Women should use
this herb only in very small quantities and only for
short periods of time. Do not use when experiencing
pathogenic fire (e.g., the flu, a herpes outbreak,
etc.). It is best not to use Sea Dragon during
pregnancy.

This
variety of fish, also known as Sea Dragon is a close
relative of the Sea Horse. It is an extremely yang and
powerful Essence tonic, reputed in China to have
"aphrodisiac" qualities. Large, wild Sea
Dragons are rare and highly prized. The larger the Sea
Dragon, the more potent its energy.
