Tongkat Ali

Yes, but I can't give you an exact day. The powder is in production now. So that will likely go up next week. Capsules might as well. The more potent tablets need to to to California for coating. So that adds another wee

It takes about a week extra to get the tablets over to California to do the veggie and enteric coatings.

Shit's backed up, yo. If I could go and press these tablets with my bare hands, I would! Nobody wants this stuff out more than I do. We are just having to cope with a big backlog, some people working from home, and delay

We have over 10 new products coming out. I was hoping to have some of them out by now, and have them more come out regularly over a few month period. However, it is looking like we will be releasing them all later than e

That's been 2 years of work to finally make happen! I've had it for a while, but production batches of it were harder to accomplish. That's all solved now, though.

COVID-19 screwed up a lot of timelines, plus we had a lot of extra analytical work on a lot of them. It's a long process that starts with getting samples from prospective suppliers, getting reference standards, developin

I will do a post when it is time. The only one that tested as I expected was Source Naturals LJ100 at 0.52% eurycomanone. Everything else failed. Multiple of them had ZERO eurycomanone! None, zilch, nada. This includes

I am very very disappointed in some of these results. I have used these brands for years, and suggested other people to use them, too! Nothing disappoints me more than finding out that brands I thought I respected are se

I will add in some Thorne stuff to our future testing. They don't have tongkat, though. So they would not have been on this one.

RFF and LEH?

Have not tested them. I would bet $100 they both fail, though. I will buy some to test. Anyone saying 100:1 or 200:1 is selling shit, full stop. Those extraction ratios are lies, and anyone promoting them is not properly

Ohh no, I am not accusing NOW of that. I am accusing a lot of the nobody brands on Amazon of that, but I highly doubt NOW is cutting the product. I mean, with the recent data I guess I should reassess the possibility. Ho

Alkemist says the COA is legit, but it is from 2016 and does show that the % is less than the 1-2% claimed. They rounded up, since Lost Empire did not specify a decimal place. So how it works according to NIST is that if

The other garbage out there might as well not even be tongkat ali. Didn't do shit for me compared to ours. The only one that did was Source Naturals LJ100 tablets, but at a much less potent level. It held me over, but wa

To start we will be testing things that we are working on, or things we already carry, since we will have already developed and validated the analytical methods. That's mostly going to be botanical extracts, but we are d

Increases in energy, motivation, confidence, and libido. Basically all the classic indicators of increased testosterone. The Source Naturals LJ100 was similar types of feelings, but much less strong. Basically it held me

Well if some of our initial results from big brands turn out to be a trend, it's not looking good.

No tolerance that I have noticed. I do get rebound effects if I go off cold turkey, though. I just feel less energetic, motivated, and have a lower mood. Classic symptoms of lower testosterone. Not horrible, but noticeab

Statistically you have. It's unfortunate, but the reality.

Okay, so the testing results are back. We tested both Raw Forest Foods and Lost Empire Herbs tongkat. It's exactly as I expected. Eurycomanone was not detected on either sample. ZERO. These were the two we tested specifi

Wouldn't? Hmm, anyone that naturally has higher levels of testosterone, and feels calm and confident by default. They likely wouldn't feel it as much. They might still get some of the endurance effects, but they would no

I have not had any noticeable side effects, personally. Some people do seem to be getting nausea if they take it on an empty stomach. That doesn't happen if they take it with food. So you might want to be prepared for th
