TONGKAT ALI BENEFITS

Although well known and highly regarded in eastern cultures, Tongkat Ali has only recently began to emerge as an alternative treatment in European and western markets. Now, online providers report an upturn in consumer interest and sales across Europe and throughout the U.S.
Also Dr Oz recent live television coverage of Tongkat Ali has served to increase the herb popularity across the United States.
Traditionally, Tongkat Ali is consumed to promote overall good health and at the same time, addresses factors that contribute to erectile dysfunction, improving blood circulation and increasing overall vitality.
The key to success and getting results with Tongkat Ali is for the user to understand what is actually being purchased and how the herbal remedy is formulated.
Tongkat Ali is a plant or rather a small tree found in the tropical rainforests of South East Asia. Traditionally only the roots of the tree are used for medicinal purposes. The way it is consume by the indigenous people is to take a small amount of the root (usually 50 to 100 gram) and boil it with 20 ounces of water for an hour or so and then drink the ‘herbal soup’.
Modern research has confirmed the validity of this method of consumption because the active ingredients of Tongkat Ali roots is only available in miniscule amount.
So it does not make sense nor is it effective to consume the roots as it is mainly cellulose.
To derive maximum benefit from a Tongkat Ali supplement, it is best to consume its root ‘Extract’ . Either in liquid form as discuss above or in powder form.
So the first thing to look out for when buying a Tongkat Ali extract supplement is to look for one that specifically states that the supplement is made of Tongkat Ali extract.
The next thing to look for is the dosage. Too little of Tongkat Ali extract does nothing for you. Bear in mind that Tongkat Ali is a herb and not a drug. So you need an appropriate amount of it to work. I suggest a minimum of at least 300 mg per capsule, per day.
Anything less than that, you are probably wasting your money.
As for the extract strength, I would say 1:50 works fine. Certainly 1:200 being the more potent one works better but it is also more expensive. If budget is not a concern, then you want to go for higher extract strength.
Other factor includes age of the roots. But this cannot be easily verified. You can only take the words of the manufacturer for it. This is why it is important to look for a supplier that offers a money-back guarantee. In the event that Tongkat Ali does not work for you, you can always fall back on the guarantee. You lose nothing.
Having said that though, you want to give Tongkat Ali extract a fair chance to see if it works for you. This means consistently taking it for at least 30 to 60 days. Like I mention earlier on, Tongkat Ali is not a drug. It is a herb. So it does not work immediately. In those cases where it does work almost immediately (as you can read from some user’s experiences on my website), they are the exceptions and not the rule.
