T-Boosting Herb: Eurycoma longifoliaThe Science of Isa-Test, Part IBy Sue Mosebar, Executive Editor ![]() In one study, the men participating in a 24-hour mountain bike race who used Eurycoma enjoyed 32.3% lower cortisol levels and 16.4% higher testosterone! More Muscle Mass. More Strength. More Sexual Drive. These are all reasons men around the world are interested in testosterone and how to raise it. And savvy marketers are well aware of this fact and are ready to convince you to pull out your wallet with their clever claims. Clearly, this is a big market. After all, what man wouldn't want to enhance his mojoand enjoy not only greater muscle mass but greater confidence... in every aspect of life? There are numerous products, however, that provide more side effects than results (e.g., prohormones). Others that have dubious histories when it comes to safety (e.g., pro-steroids). And many, many more that just flat out don't work. Yet nature has provided some very interesting, safe solutions. And science has recently shown that one of nature's gifts in particular helps boost not only testosterone but, more importantly, the benefits of higher testosterone. While also reducing the muscle-wasting cortisol levels. In both the lab and the real world. It's an herb called Eurycoma longifolia, better known by its patented (and easier to pronounce) form Longjax. This small flowering evergreen tree is native to Indonesia and Malaysia. And it has become very popular indeed for its testosterone-enhancing effects. (Historically, it was also popular for enhancing the libido and treating sexual dysfunction.) And several studies have confirmed its sexual-enhancing characteristicsin animals at least. Perhaps of equal or even greater interest to you is that it's also been shown, in both humans and animals, to increase muscle size and strength (in a placebo-controlled study). So it's now enjoying a well-deserved reputation as an anabolic substance. In one of the animal studies that showed significant effects on sexual behavior and increases in T, subjects given Eurycoma experienced an up to 170% increase in T! Another plus is, because Eurycoma isn't a prohormone, it doesn't suppress natural production of T: instead it boosts it. In a recent study just published in the 2007 ISSN Journal, 30 men who were participating in a 24-hour mountain biking race were divided into two groups. One group (15 men) received Eurycoma, and the other group (15 men) received a placebo. The researchers measured both cortisol and testosterone and discovered that the men who used Eurycoma enjoyed 32.3% lower cortisol levels and 16.4% higher testosterone. They concluded, "These results suggest that Eurycoma longifolia extract may help to maintain normal levels of cortisol (low) and testosterone (high) and thus promote an overall 'anabolic' hormonal state during intense endurance exercise." We've also gathered feedback from users on the street who have experienced favorable results. It's been noted that 80% of people who use Eurycoma notice an immediate, definite increase in their libido. Currently, there have been no negative side effects reported from the use of Eurycoma. For optimal results, follow the most compelling research and use 300 to 400 mg of Eurycoma twice per day for at least four weeks. (Stick to the patented form LongJax since you can trust its purity and potency.) Yes, with nature-provided, science-supported herbs like Eurycoma, it's all within your reach now. Greater Testosterone. More Muscle Mass. More Strength. More Endurance. More Sexual Drive.
