There are many ways to naturally increase your testosterone levels. Some methods involve taking health-conscious action: lifting weights regularly, sleeping restfully, getting out in the sun for vitamin D. Others are about conscious consumption: eating more healthy fats, protein, and magnesium.

One of the lesser-known ways to help boost your testosterone, it turns out, is also one of the most effective: Tongkat Ali.

Tongkat Ali is an herbal extract derived from the roots of the Eurycoma longifolia plant, commonly called Longjack. Native to Southeast Asia, it’s long been a staple of traditional medicine, a remedy for ailments as varied as malaria and impotence. It can boost your testosterone—but its benefits don’t end there.

Read on to learn how this natural supplement can benefit your body and mind, and how you can effortlessly make it a part of your daily routine.

The Science Behind Tongkat Ali

While the current scientific research on Tongkat Ali is nascent, initial studies have helped us gain a greater understanding of its mechanisms and benefits.

Tongkat Ali is rich in bioactive compounds vital for life. The quassinoid it has in greatest abundance is eurycomanone, which acts on the body’s hypothalamic–pituitary–gonadal axis (HPG axis). These glands, in concert, control our development, reproduction, and aging.

In men, Tongkat Ali may help activate hormones that stimulate the testicles to produce testosterone. In women, these hormones may ultimately help with menstruation. Tongkat Ali also liberates testosterone from its sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG). In doing so, it effectively increases the amount of bioavailable testosterone your cells can use.

How Tongkat Ali Can Benefit You

Boost testosterone levels

Testosterone has a PR problem. For some people, “high testosterone” might bring to mind an aggressively macho weightlifter, or a spittle-flecked man with road rage. But testosterone’s role in bad behavior is overblown—and, in fact, many more people would benefit from more testosterone than less of it.

In both men and women, testosterone plays important bodily roles, affecting our muscles, bones, sexual organs, and more. Testosterone deficiency in men, which happens naturally as part of the aging process, can result in loss of muscle mass and body hair, impotence, infertility, and more.

Enter Tongkat Ali.

"Within a few days of taking Tongkat Ali first thing in the morning, I noticed an increase in energy, more productive sessions at the gym, less fatigue and soreness afterwards, and even felt more rested after a good night’s sleep." -Jacob M., Verified Customer

Improve fertility, libido, and erectile function

The literal translation of Tongkat Ali is “Ali’s walking stick.” The name is doubly apt—a reference, experts claim, to the plant’s long, twisted roots, or perhaps to its aphrodisiac properties. That is to say: Tongkat Ali can enhance your sexual health.

Studies of both humans and animals have shown Tongkat Ali’s positive effects on erectile function and libido. Men who took Tongkat Ali for 12 weeks reported significantly harder erections and made more attempts at sexual intercourse. Male rats, meanwhile, showed increased libido on Tongkat Ali.

The supplement also has positive improved fertility, with greater semen production, volume, and motility. In one animal study, eurycomanone was shown to improve fertility by increasing sperm production.

Relieve stress

Work. Sleep. Family and friends. Exercise. Diet. Life is a balancing act, and sometimes things start falling down, making you stressed, unfocused, and unhappy. For all the spinning plates of life, Tongkat Ali can help. That’s because it helps manage your stress-hormone profile, lowering cortisol and increasing testosterone levels.

A four-week study of people with “moderate stress levels” found that Tongkat Ali reduced participants’ tension, anger, and confusion compared to the placebo. Participants also reported an improvement in overall well-being.

Increase muscle mass

You might already be taking whey protein or creatine to enhance the muscle-building work you put in at the gym and outside of it. Tongkat Ali can help maximize your gains, acting as an ergogenic aid that improves body composition.

In one study, physically active older adults reported enhanced muscle strength after taking 400mg daily for five weeks. Another study focused on healthy young men who did an eight-week strength-training program. The group that took 100mg/day of Tongkat Ali saw increases in muscle mass and maximal strength (1-RM) compared to the placebo group.

Incorporating Tongkat Ali Into Your Routine

While there aren’t yet strict dosage guidelines for Tongkat Ali, multiple studies have reported positive effects from taking 200–400mg per day. That’s why Momentous Tongkat Ali contains 400mg per dose of it. Simply take two capsules (one dose) daily, ideally in the morning, as Tongkat Ali can be a mild stimulant.

While individual results vary, you might feel the benefits of Tongkat Ali—more energy, strengthened libido, heightened mood, improved vitality overall—in as little as two to four weeks. We recommend consistent use over an extended period for optimal results.

The Wide-Ranging Benefits of Tongkat Ali

Tongkat Ali’s benefits may start with boosting your testosterone, vitality, and libido, but they don’t end there. Broadly speaking, the natural supplement can improve your life at home, at work, at the gym, and everywhere in between. It can help maximize your muscle growth and minimize recovery time. It can help you feel more confident in the bedroom and less anxious in the boardroom. And it can help you—no matter your age, gender, or lifestyle.
