2024-06-22

Tongkat ali root extract powder, also known as Eurycoma longifolia, is a tall, slim bush local to Southeast Asia, especially Malaysia and Indonesia. The plant has been customarily utilized in different shapes, counting extricates, for its potential wellbeing benefits.There are a part of companies out there who have as of late begun to discharge Tongkat Ali supplements. In any case, numerous of these companies are decently modern to the supplement industry, and are forcefully promoting their Tongkat Ali items as “testosterone boosters”. What closes up happening when a supplement picks up a parcel of intrigued in a brief sum of time like this is that quality tends to slip. This is particularly genuine when the companies offering these Tongkat Ali supplements are seldom doing any expository testing, and fair aimlessly trusting their abroad providers. This is why we chosen to contribute a parcel of time and vitality into making a tall quality Tongkat Ali supplement, whereas too creating exceedingly precise testing strategies to decide that what we were sourcing was the best Tongkat Ali as of now accessible.

1. Improving Male Fertility

Studies recommend that Tongkat ali root extract powder may offer assistance make strides male richness by expanding sperm quality, amount, and motility. Investigate distributed in the Evidence-Based Complementary and Elective Pharmaceutical diary shows that Tongkat Ali extricate can essentially boost sperm concentration and move forward sperm motility.

2. Boosting Testosterone Levels

One of the well-known benefits of Tongkat Ali extract is its ability to boost testosterone levels. Testosterone is a key hormone that plays a crucial role in men's health, including muscle mass, bone density, and sexual function. A study published in the Journal of the International Society of Sports Nutrition found that Tongkat Ali extract supplementation significantly increased testosterone levels in male adults.Many Tongkat Ali extracts do not even standardize for the main bioactive compound, Eurycomanone. In fact, most Tongkat Ali extracts are marketed as 100:1 or 200:1 extracts. This would normally mean that it took 100-200 pounds of root material to make just a single pound of Tongkat Ali extract. You would expect these extracts to then be very high in Eurycomanone, but after some analytical testing of the “100:1” and “200:1” extracts, we found that their Eurycomanone content is actually quite low. We recently tested 8 competitors; many of which claimed extract ratios of either 100:1 or 200:1, with one competitor who claimed their product was standardized to 2% Eurycomanone.

3. Improving Muscle Strength and Athletic Performance

Tongkat Ali extract is also popular among athletes and bodybuilders for its potential to improve muscle strength and athletic performance. A study published in the British Journal of Sports Medicine reported that participants who took Tongkat Ali extract for five weeks showed a significant increase in lean body mass and muscle strength compared to a placebo group.

4. Supporting Weight Loss

As you can see from the table above, the Eurycomanone content of the 100:1 extracts were generally quite low, with the highest one, competitor number 1, only reaching 0.53 % Eurycomanone. This means that in the pool of the 100:1 extracts we tested, the highest testing 100:1 extract was still about 4 times less potent than our 2% Eurycomanone! So, what about the 200:1 extracts? Surely those should be coming pretty close to our 2% Tongkat Ali extracts, right? The opposite appears to be true, as the 200:1 extracts appear to take a turn for the worse! They give you the illusion that they are going to be extremely potent, based on their claimed extract ratio, but they practically do not contain any Eurycomanone! None of the 200:1 extracts that we tested were able to hit our detection limit of 0.03% Eurycomanone on HPTLC. This means that if they contain any eurycomanone at all, it is below the ability of our machine to accurately measure them.Some studies suggest that Tongkat Ali extract may aid in weight loss by increasing metabolism and promoting fat loss. A study published in the Journal of the International Society of Sports Nutrition found that participants who took Tongkat Ali extract experienced a significant reduction in body fat percentage compared to those who took a placebo.

5. Enhancing Mood and Well-being

Tongkat Ali extract is also believed to have mood-enhancing properties. Research published in the Journal of Dietary Supplements suggests that Tongkat Ali extract may help reduce stress and improve overall mood and well-being.After more than a year of research, sourcing, method development, analytical testing, and beta-testing we finally have two very high quality Tongkat Ali supplements! One of the Tongkat Ali supplements is standardized to 2% Eurycomanone. This extract is intended for general daily use, and is a good introduction to Tongkat Ali. Our other Tongkat Ali extract is standardized to 10% Eurycomanone, making it one of the most potent Tongkat Ali supplements currently available! The 10% extract is intended for experienced athletes, or individuals looking for more pronounced and acute effects. You may think the 2% is the less potent one, but it is still more potent than almost any other Tongkat Ali extract out there. You will see that below in our testing summary.

Conclusion

In conclusion, Tongkat Ali extract is a popular herbal supplement with various potential health benefits, including enhancing male fertility, boosting testosterone levels, improving muscle strength and athletic performance, supporting weight loss, and enhancing mood and well-being. However, more research is needed to fully understand its mechanisms and effectiveness in humans.
