Himalayan Viagra under threat from climate change



Caterpillar fungus which is nicknamed Himalayan Viagra in Asia is becoming harder

gold.People in China and Nepal have been killed in clashes over the years over the

it has no scientifically proven benefits, people who boil yarchagumba in water to
make tea or add it to soups and stews believe it cures everything from impotence to
cancer.
