Bloodwork (on Tongkat Ali)

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…

Best thing to reduce histamine besides Quercetin?

u/MisterYouAreSoDumb · ND Owner

Vitamin C and B6 are good. Zinc and L-theanine seem to help prevent histamine release from mast cells. Diamine oxidase seems to be a promising one to help actually break down histamine.

Replying to TheGermanGuy21 · u/MisterYouAreSoDumb or u/Pretty-Chill I'd love to get your input on this too, if you have the time.

What mood boosters ACTUALLY work out there?

It's going to depend on the person. What works best for one person might do nothing for you, or have side effects. We like to talk in generalities, but people's brain chemistries vary a lot more than most realize. So fin
