Tongkat Ali Extract: Origin, Benefits, and Usage Guide

Tongkat Ali extract is derived from the Eurycoma longifolia shrub, a native plant of Indonesia, Indochina, and the Philippines. This powerful herbal remedy has been widely used in Southeast Asian cultures, where the roots are boiled to create a tonic with various health benefits. Tongkat Ali, also known as longjack or Malaysian Ginseng, holds significance in its name “Ali’s walking stick,” possibly referring to its aphrodisiac qualities or its slender appearance. Other regional names reflect the plant’s bitter roots, such as the Malay-Indonesian term “penawar pahit,” meaning bitter medicine. Today, tongkat ali supplements are sought after for their potent aphrodisiac properties and stress relief benefits.

Key Benefits of Tongkat Ali Extract for Sexual Health:

Tongkat ali has a long history of being used as a libido enhancer. It contains bioactive compounds such as eurocomanone, eurycomanol, canthin-6-one, and eurypeptides, which contribute to improved sexual function. Several animal studies have confirmed its powerful aphrodisiac effects, and a human study reported an 8.4%-10.8% increase in libido among participants who took tongkat ali supplements. The exact mechanism by which tongkat ali enhances libido is not yet fully understood. One possibility is that tongkat ali supplements may elevate testosterone levels due to their eurypeptide content. Additionally, some studies have shown that tongkat ali supplementation significantly improves sperm quality in men, supporting sexual health.

Tongkat Ali Extract for Stress Relief:

Apart from its aphrodisiac effects, tongkat ali exhibits anxiolytic properties, helping to alleviate stress and induce relaxation. This stress-reducing ability may further support its aphrodisiac qualities by addressing performance-related anxiety. Additionally, tongkat ali has shown broader stress-relief benefits. A study revealed that tongkat ali supplements reduced tension by 11%, anger by 12%, and confusion by 15% in moderately stressed participants over a four-week period. Moreover, stress hormone levels improved, with a 16% reduction in cortisol and a 37% increase in testosterone status.

Tongkat Ali Extract for Enhanced Exercise Performance:

Tongkat ali may contribute to improved exercise performance and body composition due to its quassinoid content. These compounds help optimize energy utilization, resulting in delayed fatigue and enhanced endurance. A study involving circuit training demonstrated that men taking tongkat ali experienced a 4% increase in lean body mass over five weeks, while the placebo group showed no significant muscle gains. Furthermore, participants taking tongkat ali exhibited significantly greater strength gains compared to those on a placebo.

How To Use Tongkat Ali Extract:

The standard dosage of Eurycoma longifolia jack is 20-40g of the dry root of the plant. With this Tongkat Ali 100:1 Extract it’s only 200-400mg. This dosage is typically divided into 1-2 servings throughout the day. The effects will be best noticeable after 14 to 21 days of supplementation.

Our Tongkat Ali 100:1 Extract contains aproximitly 0.08%-0.1% Eurycomanone.

Side Effects and Precautions:

Human studies haven’t noted any side effects from taking tongkat ali supplements. Some individuals may experience restlessness or difficulty falling asleep. However, the studies haven’t yet examined the long-term use of tongkat ali supplements. Tongkat ali may impede the absorption of propranolol, a hypertension medication. It may also increase the efficacy of medications that lower blood glucose. Consult with a physician before starting any new supplements.
