Investigating Africa’s “Love” Potions

- I dived head first into the world of Africa’s “Man Power” drinks with claims to fixing many illnesses and being a powerful “performance” enhancer. Do these ridiculous rod remedies really work?

The guy on the packaging is a polish strongman called Mariusz Pudzianowski who won a couple of "world's strongest man" competitions. I guess as a pole i'm proud that Mariusz is famous enough to be on a skechy medicine bottle XD
Not a couple. FIVE. The most anyone has ever won. Granted, when the weights were lighter, and he wouldn't have won as many in Brian Shaw's era or the current era. I was waiting for Harv to tell us about Pudz, but I was left to Starv. Polska nie gorrum? :O
As a non-Pole I thank him for popularizing POLSKA GUROOOOM

The funniest part about this is that the drinks contain actual enhancement drugs (Viagra), but so much of it and with random chemicals it feels like someone just said "Yep, just dilute the Viagra with other "powerful" chemicals" and just sold that.
This actually reminds me of a drug that I've recently read about called Corvalol. It's claimed to be a heart medicine and anxiolytic from Russia, based on herbal extracts. Which are in the formula, but that doesn't change the fact that it also contains a large dose of Phenobarbital, a potent sedative drug that is schedule 4 in the US. Yet in Russia, it was available OTC.

@@maestro9765really? It's so widespread here and so common, nobody ever actually questioned whats in it lol. We've used it since USSR times. My guess sedatives are to lower the heart rate, because it's usually used when person with heart problems is expiriencing chest pains and near heart attack state.
Also my guess that you can't use it make drugs, or get high, because everything that can remotely be used to make drugs or get high is banned immideately here, no matter how crucual it is to treat some conditions. Or atleast they make it almost impossible to buy, unless you gonna die without it, and even then, good luck getting those
@@maestro9765It's still largely available and sold in Ukraine idk about Russia
@@maestro9765 it's a cheap and traditional soviet medicine, like "Звёздочка" (vietnamese Golden Star), "Валерьянка" (Valerian), "Зелёнка" (Brilliant green, literally a dye) and some other things. They are still on sale mostly because evidence-based medicine became a real thing only in 90s, and in 90s Russia was in economical-social-political shock and the atmosphere of complete stupefaction (manufacturers of dietary supplement and homeopathic "drugs" literally bought a lot of doctors and ads on TV, papers and so on, so a "doctor" would recommend you Oscillococcinum (literally placebo), Valocordin (origin of Corvalol), Aspirin (ignore the fact that there are much better analogues nowadays).
Before 2012 even Morphine and Codeine were legal.
"If you must drink and drive, make it Yoyo" is the most dystopian thing I've seen in a long while.

I fucking lost it at the "the room started getting darker" review.
"I drank this and started passing to the other side, 10/10".
Pharmacy student here. Vision changes are a known side effect of the sildenafil (Viagra) component, likely caused by the blood vessels in the eye dilating. (Sildenafil was originally approved to be a vasodilator for heart disease by the FDA in the US.) If you take Viagra and the room darkens, you should probably stop taking it and tell your doctor.
Bro was dying 💀💀💀
thats actually a symptom of your blood pressure dropping too low. thats also what viagra does. it seems like opposite, but drugs like viagra dilate your blood vessels and make your bp go way down, but you almost cant help but get a boner at that point.
HE made those love potions
And HE survived them hardly in Spain
HE Also made them in the Ottoman Empire
HE was also born in Spain
HE was born from a love potion!
he would never
Sounds an awful lot like a kind of witcher potion. Not many people can handle it, but if they can, it gives them immense inhuman power. Side effects may include death
Where can i find the recipe for the Jekonmo potion in the Witcher? Gonna need it to fight a succubus...
@@FarmerSlayerFromTheEdoPeriod "Fight," huh? I see through your lies!
I like how death is just a side effect, one of
"Kills mice in testing". Excellent. I've been looking for something to treat my chronic mouse infestation with...
...or it can help them maintain their mousy man(?)power, which it only going to exacerbate the situation
I wonder if Mariusz Pudzianowski knows about him being used as some Jekonmo mascot
Probably not, i think it was one of his stock photos from internet after all
I think he would be rather unhappy with it
POLSKA GUROM
He created the product.
jeszcze polska nie zginela
I can't believe HE tested those love potions
How do you think He became so powerful?
HE used Jekonmo to become a god
@@aguyfrominternet2333HE combined all the manpower drinks. HE became a god.
no way. its stolas. im a big fan
the random "polish muscleman vents about migrants" killed me
He lore is everywhere now, even outside of the poorly translated history series
The reason why HE is so powerful and keeps getting stronger is because HE constantly drinks one bottle of each male power branded bitter every day, it’s what gives him his power
*He* is the only one whose body is able to withstand the adverse effects of the mixtures
HE also saves the settlements you mark on his map
God bless all food/drug administrations with enough power to prevent us from mindlessly eating arsenic.

No thanks for approving and unleashing the Ozempidemic upon the world
That Yoyo stuff was being sold in my local dodgy corner shop here in the UK along with some of the other "under the counter" products from far flung corners of the earth. The owner would offer a selection to all his "dear friends" who were "like brothers" to him within 2 seconds of walking into his shop for the first time, and he would say "Just for you my brother, tell no-one!" but then say "please to tell your friends and come to me!". Guy was selling these random "herbal mixtures" along with Khat, coca leaf chew stuff I recognised from a documentary about South America, "spice" and a whole range of those "it's not illegal *yet*" designer drug capsules in the bright foil wrappers. The guy was a menace, I was both relieved but saddened when the UK trading standards lot came and shut him down. No-where else sold not quite out of date Nourishment shakes for 60p when everyone else was selling them for a quid.
The spice must flow.
HE drank 10 bottles of Jekonmo to fly around the moon 10 times. If Jekonmo exists 99 years, now we know why HE became so strong during WW2 and after.
we all thought the devastation at Hiroshima was caused by an atomic bomb, it turns out HE was just returning from his moon orbit and landed a bit too hard.
@@carlwheezerofsouls3273 Nah, its because HE drank a gallon of the stuff then had sex, on the first hip trust, it blew the whole place up!
"Everything was fading, and getting dark. I saw a bright light beckoning me forward into it." 9/10 stars
0:58 I hate it when I'm on my period and my uterus becomes an avocado
I'll never have guacamole again.
right, it's so annoying!
I apparently commented here at one point but it's gone so I'll never know what I said
The jekonmo guy looks a lot like he. He does indeed have great man power.
and manpower
That's a polish athelete and a strongman champion
@@GustavoJohnson21 Marcus Rühl I think
@@aataloanMariusz Pudzianowski, I'm pretty damn sure.

That's the reason HE was able to fly (no idea how many) Kilometers without using an airplane
5,990 kilometres.
*He* flew CANADA to Montreal. That's all we need to know.
@@Deridus Not quite. Canada flew to Glasgow.
@@thomasoates3003 Glasgow... in Montreal, I thought. Regardless, *He* is of Spain, born in Spain. *He* Lore.
@@Deridus You are correct; went and checked.
I love how "He" follows you everywhere. You can't escape, for He's played this game twice before!
I hope jekonmo becomes a meme on this channel
This channel is now my comfort place, greetings from south africa
are you an anarchist
“For spiritual and personal reasons I cannot consume arsenic”
Is this how HE gets his energy?
HE invented it, so other people can be as powerful as HE
@@juliamavroidi8601so true
@@juliamavroidi8601true
It looked like the "old face out, new face in" part of that first Jekonmo ad was just indicating that they'd changed the background color of their label from green to orange.
HE lore is too powerful to be constrained by translations of ancient languages
Fun fact: drinking Jekonmo more than 3 times a week gives you godly powers. Just ask him.
In exchange, something in your body will die. If you're lucky, it's something like the appendix or gallbladder, if not, the brain or heart
Noticed the double sided unicorn at 4:20 and i can't stop laughing!!
This is great, I'd like to see more content like this
So HE is cannonically Mariusz Pudzianowski?
'd be great, wouldn't it?
Please send samples of these sex potions to a lab. Recently a company like this was exposed because it included the drug 3-mmc, whilst it wasnt listed on the label.
What is 3mmc?
Well, let's just say it has some relations with drug abuse.
I was playing as Germany in HOI4, got halfway into USSR, ran out of manpower, drank HALF of a bottle of JEKONMO and some milk and got 455k happy manpower. No more uprisings for me.
Pretty sure you had a different kind of uprising instead
at work once, a man from Belize offered me a drink he referred to as "bittaz". after looking it up, it seems to be the same thing as these drinks, although he claimed they used various aphrodisiac herbs, marijuana and very strong rum to make it. it mostly just made me feel sweaty and drunk. didnt notice much of a "rod" enhancement. that experience is what led me to click on this video. i cant beleive i actually drank that sketchy ass bottle.
Props to you for survivng that
HE doesn't need Jekonmo, Jekonmo needs HE.
"Kills mice at testing" has similiar vibe to "chocolate kills dogs"
this is a certified starv harv classic
People out there really making IRL witcher potions. Illicit herbs mixed with an alcohol base, sounds like alchemy to me.
That really is how you make a decoction of an herb. Stick it in high proof alcohol and mash it up a bit.
Well it’s being sold in a place that literally believes in witches making them sick. And their definition of a witch is any female around them.
More like random useless herbal extracts with Viagra sneakily added in to make you think they've cracked some kind of secret all-natural blend that makes your willy go up.
Hearing the Terraria OST in the background makes this video so much more hilarious for a reason I can’t explain
Wait, why is Polish strongman Pudzianowski on the Jekonmo labels? LMAO
on z polski? ten na labeli tego jekonmo?

"HE jumped down from the bus"
Yay more HE lore!
theres 195 countries in the world, so according to their website they will deliver to literally any place on earth
Ah yes, I tried Jekonmo and made the mistake of mixing it with goat milk instead of liquid milk. I began seeing sounds and smelling colors, I lost all control of my limbs, I swear Elvis visited me at night and began punching an inflatable Santa Claus while screaming, "I got the power, the man power, power of man, take this"
I then woke up behind a McDonalds. Something about the Grimace Shake also having Jekonmo from what I heard but can't confirm.
Me when I taste the "Flavours" of Jekonmo: (it's Arsenic)
that's probably the arsenic taking effect
The goat milk wasn’t liquid? That’s definitely a problem if the goat milk is a solid
@@shannond1511 If you mix Jekonmo with powdered milk, it will ignite like thermite and burn a hole through solid concrete.
it really works i tried it
i managed to make my cancer much bigger AND i aced the autism test without studying
So this is the strongest potion the potion seller refused to sell
BUT I AM GOING INTO BATTLE
YOU CANNOT HABDLE THESE POTIONS TRAVELER
10:45 I keep hearing about that being a serious issue, people accusing each other of witchcraft...
Doctors are vampires who steal your blood through their stethoscopes...
I'm surprised that people still think witchcraft is something that can actually harm people or even exist
@unoriginalperson72 my mom told me she knew a guy in collage who volunteered to help some African village that was having famine problems, they tried to teach them how to tend their fields differently to make them more bountiful(the example my mom provided was simply "remove the rocks from the field" but I assume it might have been more complicated) but most farmers refused to change how they tended their crops.
Except for one who decided to try it out, and then he produced a record setting harvest.
The rest of the tribes then accused him of using witchcraft to make the other farmers' yams swim through the dirt from their fields into his, and demanded he give them all back and that if he dud it again they'd kill him. So he put the rocks back in his field.
@@RipOffProductionsLLC Sheesh... sounds to me like are a whole lot of issues there that go beyond mere superstition. Demanding conformity. Envy. Scapegoating. Deep-seated distrust. Situations like that, merely trying to convince people that witchcraft isn't real wouldn't solve the underlying societal issues. Even if belief in witchcraft wasn't a factor, the tall poppy syndrome at work would lead to the successful person being accused of something else instead.
@@RipOffProductionsLLC The rock wizard
This reminds me of the witch doctor video. I really like your random deep dives into sketchy businesses online it's very fun.
Even essential oil MLMs aren’t bold enough to make these claims
Imagine if someone advertises something like that, and the web link leads you straight to a PSA about MLMs.
I've heard of some hunbot claiming that it aids in cancer, so it's not far off
Everything about the love potion lore is immaculate, from the polish bodybuilder to the arsenic, and even that you MUST drink YOYO and drive.
Drinking boosts you up to limited conscription
If you aren’t Switzerland you’ll need that manpower!
The guy on Jekonmo looks so majestic that it really adds love to the potion.
This looks like something rigby would order off the internet
Honest to god, if anyone gets their hands on Jekonmo and ships it to me, I WILL be a test rat for the good of the international community
It's Viagra diluted with cheap herbal extracts that apparently may or may not be contaminated with heavy metals due to poor quality control.
This channel never dissapoints. Love the different content 💪🤠
This is how HE played through earth 3 times
If you take a bottle of Jekonmo with vodka you instantly transform into an ork.
You'z a funny git, 'umie
7:07 you missed the liver toning claim. Cause you know having a toned liver and body is what the ladies want!
mine aunty brought johokonoma bitters to MY funeral service, and when poured in mouth i literally rose from my fucking coffin on some WWE shit
This is how HE died and rose 3 seperate times,he just drank Jekonmo
Packaging reminds me of modern Mexican apothecaries that sell teas, tinctures and perfumes that are "inspired" by indigenous medicine practices and infused with Catholic beliefs. I saw a cologne dabber with a stock image of a stack of money and a sachel of coins so wearers can "manifest wealth". The liquid was neon green like Mountain Dew lol
Brother, I require an apothecary
The person in the potion is Mariusz Pudzianowski, Polish weightlifter
the mice died because it's man power not mouse power
i think those mice were pregnant...
You think Dr. Aikuzo approves of these potions?
These potions are how HE attained his power.
Is that Pudzianovski? Could he be HE?
he must made these posyons for sure.
I love how on the Jekonmo man power herbal mix the pictures on the website show the bottle with the label crooked and then on the main center picture has the label Photoshopped straight😂
The potions are why He is so powerful.
8:58 damn, He really is everywhere
he lore is unavoidable
Good to know other countries have awful substances passed as medicine, not just the US under the FDA
None of these things have been approved by the relevant health authority in those countries though. Basically like “herbal supplements” in the US.
More obscure snake oil remedy videos please and thank you.
They literally just ripped a picture of mariuz lol bet he doesnt even know about that
Can you make tests of these products? For science…
I like to imagine that these potions were made originally as some sort of Captain America serum to artificially recreate *HIM*
but they didn't work as intended so they just sold them as dick pills
Pudzian on the label of some random sus supplement just kills me
Man Power! Jekonmo!!
One of the reviews sounded like someone has already got sildenafil toxicity.💀
3:06 least problematic polish man
HE defeated the Roman Empire
HE jumped from the bus
HE used the love potions
maybe He was using these potions when he was in africa fighting in the christmas war 🤔
Someone should run a test on this to see what it’s made of
I read another comment, and it said it's just Viagra mixed with random herbs
So this is basically modern-day snake oil
Damn Pudzian selling African Love Potions
Isn't it illegal to use a photo of someone on a product if they didn't give you permission for that? I really doubt this polish strongman agreed to have his picture on some sketchy African viagra potion
On one hand: Yeah, it's illegal. On the other: I don't think that the state of Nigeria us too concerned with protecting the personality rights of some polish strongman.
They mix that shit in their backyards and sell it in the street wtf can they do about it
whats he gonna do sue the sketchy African viagra potion?
This man needs more subs! Wtf he hilarious 😂
3:04 Mariusz Pudzianowski Polish gladiator
Pudzianowski, Polish strongman, I knew he was doing something fishy all along!
He probably doesn't know all about it
1:19 That's a big damn package
Lifetime supply of Arsenic
I have had Alomo bitters, which may or may not be identically the same thing as Orijin. Information online is confusing.
I don't know if it did anything to my Man Power On Bed, but it was certainly a flavor experience. Something distinctly similar to dried mushrooms in the flavor profile, and bitter in an unusual way.
I love your channel keep up the great stuff
HE has no need for such potions.
I am Polish the man on the label of JEKONMO is Mariusz Pudzianowski. 5 times Worlds Strongest Man .lol I highly doubt he wanted his picture on that label
3:22 ENGI
As a recovering junkie, *SURE I'LL TRY IT! PASS THAT SHIT*
5:39 sniper gaming
Moringa can be used to clean water. It makes pollutants clump up. Which is impressive I guess.
The fact they put Marius Pudzianowski in the bottle sticker is insanely funny.
Ah yes! Jara E, from the famous video game Eam Forress 2!
HE's been going crazy with these brand deals due to his popularity, gaw damn!
I was uncontrollably laughing towards the last 3-2 minutes of this video and idk why, so much I didn’t want to laugh.
That Uber driver in Lagos who mixes Jekonmo with Orijin for double fire probably lays the best pipe in the entirety of West Africa
Jara E sounds like Jarate from TF2
sounds like it'd taste about the same
