Fenugreek Extract

Clinical studies show that supplementing with fenugreek raises testosterone levels and boosts libido. Fenugreek is so effective at raising testosterone levels because it inhibits the enzymes in the body that break down testosterone from working. Another benefit to supplementing with fenugreek it that increases muscle insulin sensitivity. Dr. Wilborn found that when trained athletes consumed 500mg of a fenugreek extract per day for 8 weeks they saw an improvement in blood sugar levels, increases in lean muscle mass and strength, and reductions in body fat.

Fadogia Agrestis

Fadogia Agrestis is a Nigerian shrub that has been used in traditional African medicine for thousands of years as a pro-erectile agent. A study done for the Asian Journal of Andrology found that supplementing with Fadogia Agrestis increased testosterone production by up to 100%!

Bulbine Natalensis

Bulbine Natalensis is part of the Asphodelaceae plant family; the same plant family as the popular Aloe Vera plant. Bulbine Natalensis increases the signalling of Gonadotropin-Releasing Hormone (GnRH) to stimulate the release of Luteinizing Hormone (LH) which directly increases the natural production of testosterone.

Longjack Extract

Tongkat ali, or longjack, comes from the roots of the green shrub tree Eurycoma longifolia. It’s used in traditional medicine in Malaysia, Indonesia, Vietnam, and other Asian countries to treat male infertility and erectile dysfunction. A study published in the British Journal of Sports Medicine found that men supplementing with long jack for 5 weeks saw a significant increase in muscle mass, strength, and arm circumference.

Mucuna Pruriens Extract

Mucuna pruriens is a legume grown in tropical areas of Asia and Africa. The main active ingredient in mucuna pruriens is Levodopa (L-DOPA). A mucuna pruriens extract is much more effective then synthetic L-DOPA since it is released steadily in the body and stays active in the blood much longer than the synthetic version.

There are several scientifically proven benefits from supplementing with mucuna pruriens such as:

• An increase in sperm volume and sperm quality
• Reduced levels of cortisol
• Activation of androgen receptors
• A boost in dopamine production causing increases in focus, alert fullness, and cognitive function.
• Increased testosterone levels.
• Increased human growth hormone release
• Decreased prolactin levels

Dehydroepiandrosterone

Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) is a hormone found naturally in your body, made in the adrenal glands. In your body, DHEA is converted into male sex hormones such as testosterone. Taking DHEA in supplement form can protect against health problems associated with low hormone imbalances and/or aging-related declines in hormone levels.

In addition, since low levels of DHEA have been detected in some individuals with conditions like diabetes, breast cancer, heart disease, osteoporosis, and kidney disease, DHEA supplements are commonly used as a therapeutic remedy to treat or prevent such conditions.

BioPerine Black Pepper Extract

Black pepper contains the active ingredient piperine. Piperine is used to improve digestion, relieve stomach pain, and enhance mood and mental function. However, where piperine really shines is through its ability to boost nutrient absorption. Piperine increases the bioavailability and absorption rate of any supplement you take with it.

Calcium

Calcium-D-glucarate is a substance made by combining calcium and glucaric acid, a chemical compound found naturally in the body and in foods like oranges, grapefruit, apples, and broccoli. Clinical studies show that oral supplementation of calcium D-glucarate inhibits beta-glucuronidase, thereby enhancing the process of glucuronidation, in which fat-soluble toxins and excess estrogen are detoxified and excreted from our bodies.

DIM

Diindolylmethane (DIM) is a plant-derived compound found in cruciferous vegetables like kale, broccoli, brussel sprouts, and cauliflower. DIM balances hormonal activity which contribute to a better metabolism and increased free testosterone levels. Supplementing with DIM has been clinically shown to:

• Free bound testosterone – DIM releases metabolites that prevent testosterone from binding to sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG).
• Act as an Aromatase Inhibitor – Aromatase is an enzyme that converts testosterone to estrogen. DIM suppresses aromatase activity, protecting testosterone from being converted into estrogen.
• Regulate Hormone Levels – DIM regulates the metabolism of “bad” metabolized estrogens into “good” 2-hydroxy estrogen metabolites which help maintain healthy levels of active testosterone, provide antioxidant protection and increase bone strength.

Indole-3-carbinol

Indole-3-carbinol is a potent anti-estrogen that works similar to SERMs (selective estrogen receptor modulator). IC3 prevents testosterone from aromatizing into estrogen, increasing free testosterone levels and preventing estrogen related side effects.

Elimistane

Elimistane (Luteolin) is a naturally occurring flavonoid that controls estrogen levels and improves cholesterol levels. Aromatase inhibitors like Elimistane prevent the conversion of testosterone, an androgen, to estradiol, an estrogen.

Elimistane inhibits estrogen biosynthesis by decreasing aromatase expression and destabilizing the aromatase protein.
