Tongkat AliThe Most Effective Male Herb on the Planet?
In English, this translates Ali’s Walking Stick. And they weren’t talking about an actual stick from a tree! It reminds me of that scene from Austin Powers 3 where Mini Me is described as a tripod… Other names for this powerful root include Longjack, Eurycoma Longifolia and Malaysian Ginseng. In Vietnamese it is known as Cay ba binh which means “The Tree that Cures a Hundred Diseases.”
Testosterone, Sexual and Other Tongkat Ali Benefits
Tongkat Ali is theorized to trigger an enzyme in the testes to produce more testosterone by converting pregnenolone precursors into androgens, possibly through the effects of luteinizing hormone. It’s also been said to stop the negative feedback loop that would normally shut down this increased production. [10]
What’s highly significant is that Tongkat Ali works through three of the mechanisms needed to ensure hormonal health in men.
Restore testosterone levels.[1][2] Anti-estrogenic by lowering aromatase [6] Lowers SHBG [1][6]
These are three of the main difficulties in hormones and Tongkat Ali does it all. In addition this root has been shown to:
- Boost several parameters of sexual performance, including erectile function, hardness, performance, and satisfaction [3][5]
- Increases Sperm Production and Motility [6]
- Enhance strength and muscle [1]
- Enhance mood and quality of life [4]
- Increased muscle mass and strength, decreased fat [7]
- Inhibit NF-kB [8]
Some of the active constituents include eurycomaosides, quassinoid compounds, eurycolactones, eurycomalactones, eurycomanone, eurypeptides, glycosaponins and pasakbumin-B. A specific molecule known as 9-methoxycanthin-6-one has been associated with increasing erectile strength and delaying ejaculation. [5]
In Malaysia, in addition to the sexual performance and hormonal benefits, Tongkat Ali has been used for rheumatism, dysentery, and malaria. [8]
Here we have a high quality and potent 100:1 water-soluble extract of the Eurycoma longifolia roots.
Testing showed a concentration of:
- 34.91% glycosaponins
- 54.31% eurypeptides
Our Tongkat is sourced from Malaysian wild trees that are generally 20-30 years old.
How to Use and Tongkat Ali Dosage
Because of its strong hormonal effects it is best to cycle the use of this herb. The recommended Tongkat Ali dosage is to take it for five days, then take two days off and repeat this cycle.
Other people like to take it for several weeks straight, then take some time off. Experiment for yourself and find what dose works best for your body.
Though many people feel the effects of Longjack right away, its optimal effectiveness will occur after about one to three week of use.
The recommended dose is 100 mg twice a day. We provide you with a 100 mg spoon along with each package. Once again, feel free to experiment with what works best for you. Some people have gone up to using a full gram each day!
Tongkat Ali extract works for women too, though the recommended dose should be cut in half. Some women find the action a little too “hot” for them. Stay tuned, we’re going to have the female equivalent of Tongkat Ali just for the ladies soon.
Incredibly Bitter
Bitter is better, but Tongkat Ali pushes the limits of this. Not only is it very bitter but the taste will linger in your mouth. It is NOT recommended to add Tongkat to drinks or food as it will likely make them unpalatable.
Here’re two options. First, MAN UP! If you take it regularly you’ll get used to the taste and it won’t bother you so much anymore. Or place some water or other liquid in your mouth, hold it there while you scoop your Longjack in, and swallow it all down without tasting much. This video shows you how.
Some people have reported making Tongkat Ali coffee. The bitterness may go well with the bitterness of coffee, but unless there is a tiny dose it probably won’t be the best thing to drink.
Tongkat Ali Side Effects
Some people have reported that this feels a bit too powerful for them. Feeling like your 18 again is beneficial but it’s not without its drawbacks.
Possible side effects of Tongkat Ali include restlessness, increased body temperature, and aggressiveness.
Warning: Avoid extended exposure to air or light of the powder. It oxidizes, clumps up and appears to lose its effectiveness. Keep it in the sealed bag and use within three months of opening.

But I wasn't sure which one was working. So I left the Tongkat Ali aside for a while and went with just Pine Pollen. Then I did just Tongkat Ali.While the Pine Pollen had a more noticeable affect in the sexual area, Tongkat Ali seems to have a better overall impact.One area that I find a bit surprising is that my eyes have always been a bit puffy/swollen, especially in the morning. I attributed this to the mask and air pressure related to CPAP. But when I'm on the Tongkat Ali my eyes have been fine. Jan 22, 2016 by R/T on Strong & Effective That goes for the product, and myself when taking it. Really is hard to take for the bitter taste, but probably easier if one takes a 100 mg doseonly, with the water-first trick shown here in the vid. But I've switched to filling my own 00 capsules (~700mg if powder density is an average amount, 0.8g/ml). I have to dial in dose still. Easy to take more than you need, and 2 of these capsules has me feeling wound up/intense for 6-8 hrs. TKA has definitely upped my energy and drive, and my workouts have certainly gotten a boost in both motivation and output. Probably the best insight I can give though, at least for me, is that TKA feels way better to me than say Tribulus Terrestris, or Horny Goat Weed, which upset my stomach and bladder, and make me feel a little too much like a rabid dog. Jan 20, 2016 by Ralph on Very nice boost I've been taking Tongkat Ali for about a month now, following the cycle program. I felt the impact right away when I first started. It definitely gives me a sustained boost of energy, positively affecting my workouts and just life in general. I've gotten used to the strong taste, but I also foundsomething that pretty much neutralizes it too. I follow the method Logan shows, just sipping some water, dropping the little spoonful in your through and then chugging some more water. However, I tried putting a 1/4 teaspoon of the schisandra berry in the water. It takes pretty much all of the bitterness away and I mostly just taste the schisandra (which I really like!) Everything I've tried from Super Man Herbs has been great quality! Awesome! Thanks for sharing, will have to try that! Dec 3, 2015 by Joe Martindale on Tongkat Ali Over the years I rarely feel much difference with herbs/supplements. And actually with this herb which I've been taking for about 3 months, I don't really "feel" much different. But I have owned a set of adjustable dumbbells for 7-8 years, and I'm now 57 years old, and despite training pretty hard have never been able to squat the maximum weight of my set. Within about 6 weeks of taking this herb, almost effortlessly I am squatting with maximum dumbbellweight, thus the 5 star review. Oct 22, 2015 by Rob on Works maybe too good Tried this one for some extra kick in my workouts and the bedroom. The results were very positive in both departments. However I did find that sometimes I felt over energized and too aggressive much like the side effects stated. I'm in my late 30's and in good shape so Tongkat maybe be a bit too strong for me right now. May try to cycle for shorter periods and see how it goes. Glad to hear it worked well for you. You may want to try Pine Pollen powder or tincture, as they don't have as strong effect as TKA, but should still give you the boost in both departments! Jul 17, 2015 by Russell Whiteis on it works I have used your pine pollen for several months now and honestly not noticed much effect. Like most I did the large dose initially and it produced morning wood so i just continued. The Tongkat Ali is another matter entirely. It absolutely works for me not only in producing stronger erections but in boostinglibido. It is milder and not the same effect when cialis or other pharacetucials; but it feels much more natural and to date I have not noticed any averse side effects. For me, the headaches and stomach upset makes the drug companies products undesirable even if they did no heart damage. It works and I have even grown accustomed to the biter taste. Jun 2, 2015 by Tex Johnson on Best testosterone booster I have taken a lot of supplements as a professional athlete. But Tong Kat Ali is the best for testosterone boosting effect that you can feel. May 24, 2015 by Eric Harris on "E" Took about 4 days to feel any affect... Once it came on, it came on strong !!! Best way for me to discribe it. Oh hell, it feels like a brick, a stone, a rock and so on. You get the message! Just be careful, don't get carried away. Which is very easy to do, enjoy :-) Apr 22, 2015 by Anthony P on You don't have to taste it... I have a '0' capsule machine that makes 24 at a time. I add the desired amount of theTongkat Ali into the capsules and take with water. No taste! Apr 16, 2015 by Abe Heide on it's a bitter taste I'm using tongcat Ali for a couple weeks, but for it just doesn't work so far, don't know what to do. Page 1 of 2: « ‹ 1 2 › »
