The consequences of this exposure on biological systems are prompting scientists to study the effects on human health. This current study aimed to determine the effects of intermediate frequency (150 kHz) EMR exposure on the vital organs of female Sprague Dawley rats.

- - The bark of Bois Bande (Parinari campestris) is traditionally used in the Caribbean as an aphrodisiac for improving sexual health but lacks scientific validation.
- - Toxicity studies evaluated the hydroalcoholic extract of P. campestris using various doses, with the acute study revealing no toxicity up to 2000 mg/kg and no adverse effects at 1000 mg/kg/day in a 28-day subacute study.
- - The findings suggest that a daily dose of 1000 mg/kg of P. campestris extract is safe and non-toxic for males.
