Vitex agnus-castus, called monk's pepper or chaste berry, is an old medicinal plant from the mint family. Its story is closely connected to European monastery gardens, where it was cultivated by monks. As it inhibits sexual desire, they supposedly
expected relief from the austere monastery life by consuming chaste berry. Today, preparations of the pungent-tasting fruits of the plant are used as a hormone-regulating agent for women.
