Hello,
Donkey penis (penis of the male donkey, *Equus asinus*) is a traditional medicinal material derived from the equine family. Its protein content (29.7 g/100 g) is higher than that of donkey meat, while its fat content is relatively low (0.8 g/100 g). This herb has a sweet and salty taste and is warm in nature, entering the Liver and Kidney meridians. It is commonly used in traditional Chinese medicine for its kidney-tonifying and tendon-strengthening effects—specifically to reinforce tendons and bones, nourish yin, and replenish deficiency.
We hope the above information is helpful to you. Wishing you a happy and healthy life!
