Tongkat Ali Extract
(Eurycoma Longifolia Jack 100:1)
Eurycoma longifolia Jack, also known as Tongkat Ali in Malaysia, is a shrub-tree that grows in Malaysia, Burma, Indochina, Thailand, Sumatra, Borneo, and the Philippines [1]. It is traditionally used primarily as an aphrodisiac and for improving general health [2]. Other traditional uses include treatment of aches, persistent fever, malaria, dysentery, glandular swelling, bleeding (as a coagulant), edema, hypertension, syphilitic sores, and ulcers [3-4].
Tongkat Ali is primarily used as a male aphrodisiac. In Malaysia, it is used to increase virility and sexual prowess and is claimed to improve strength and power during sexual activities [2, 5].
Many animal studies, both in rats and mice, have found administration of E. longifolia extracts to increase sexual arousal and motivation and frequency of sexual activity [2, 5-6]. These effects are similar to those caused by administration of testosterone, although the effect of Tongkat Ali is not as strong [5]. There are only a few human studies published in peer-reviewed journals, although there are numerous anecdotal reports that would indicate that the aphrodisiac qualities are retained in humans.
"Tongkat Ali" has been shown to support male hormonal balance (including testosterone availability), libido and performance. (FRIM) showed that the Eurycoma Longifolia Jack or Tongkat Ali (Pasak Bumin) also contains anti-oxidant properties, a high level of SOD (Superoxide Dismutase), an anti-oxidant enzyme.
Research has shown that Tongkat Ali contains several phytochemicals (plant chemicals) that support healthy testosterone levels (the sex hormone) required for the male sexual functions. It also supports healthy sexual organs and mental alertness.
The effects of eurycoma were studied on the libido of sexually experienced male rats after dosing them with 200, 400 and 800 mg/kg body weight twice daily for 10 days. Results showed that Eurycoma longifolia produced a dose-dependent increase in mounting frequency of the treated animals. The animals had more sex, more often!
