Hi everyone,
Been a longtime buyer from ND, always appreciated the high quality, but never made a post on the subreddit.
So I'm in my 20s, got my testosterone tested earlier this year before the pandemic and scored a disappointing 388. Doctor refused to do any more hormone testing to see if anything was wrong because I was in range.
So then I started optimizing my own health. Supplemented vitamin D, magnesium, and zinc. Stopped eating out and buying frozen meals. Cut out drinking bottled water, which may leech plastics. Getting plenty of sunlight. Ate lots of healthy fats.
And I started taking ND's 10% Tongkat Ali. Been taking it for the last month and a half. Took another testosterone blood test at a men's clinic last week and scored 972.
Now of course, I can't say it was 100% due to Tongkat. I made a lot of lifestyle changes as you can see since my last test. But what I will say is my new doctor was really surprised how big of a jump I made in half a year. And this isn't even the highest I could go, since I usually don't have great sleep and recently I haven't been getting as much exercise as I should. Now my next goal is…

No doubt about that. I do wonder how older guys would respond. I'm in my 20s and the fact that I could boost my endogeneous production that much means I just was making bad lifestyle decisions before. So it'd be really easy to kickstart my system back into high gear.
Would someone not in their prime be as responsive? I'll want to convince my dad to try some Tongkat. He probably won't get bloodwork since he hates going to the doctor, but at least I can see if he feels more energy.

It should work even better for older people. I am in my mid 30s and it was very strong for me. I've spoken to customers that are in their 40s and 50s, and they have reported strong effects, too.
