I was thinking to myself.... saltpeter, isn't that potassium nitrate?

a quick search on wiki turned this up:
Quote:
A popular misconception is that potassium nitrate is an antaphrodisiac and was added to food in all-male institutions. In fact potassium nitrate has no such effect in humans. [1]
and then on "antaphrodisiac"
Quote:
Certain medications' side effects may be antaphroditic in nature, however, there are no substances that have safe antaphroditic effects without major side-effects.
I can't think of any, myself. Cognitive training I guess.
