Give it a month. It's cumulative, not immediate.

Tongkat Ali
Brand TBD
- Form
- Standardized root extract
- Dose
- 200 to 400 mg in the morning, cycled
Studied for supporting free testosterone and stress hormone balance in men. One of the few in this aisle with real human data behind it.
Cycle it. Five days on and two off, or eight weeks on and two off. Talk to your doctor first.
Ashwagandha (KSM-66)
Brand TBD
- Form
- Standardized root extract, 600 mg
- Dose
- 600 mg daily, evening
The most-studied adaptogen for supporting a healthy cortisol response, sleep, and recovery from training stress.
Some men feel flattened by it after months. If your edge dulls, cycle off.
Zinc + Boron
Brand TBD
- Form
- Zinc picolinate 25 mg plus boron 6 mg
- Dose
- With an evening meal
Zinc supports normal testosterone production and immune function, and heavy sweaters run low. Boron supports free testosterone.
Don't megadose zinc. Long-term high intake depletes copper.
