Tongkat Ali (Eurycoma longifolia) is a Southeast Asian small, evergreen tree growing up to to 15 m (49 ft) tall, which has long been traditionally used as a medicinal plant in a variety of folk medicine preparations for ailments which range from malaria to erectile dysfunction. As a supplement, the root of the plant is more commonly known as Tongkat Ali, Malaysian Ginseng, or Longjack.
Different parts of Eurycoma longifolia plant have different traditional uses, but the root is said to have the most potent qualities as an aphrodisiac. Quassinoids notorious for their bitterness make up the most biologically active class of compounds in the root. Of these, Eurycomanone is the most well-studied and is generally considered to be a primary marker of an extract’s potency. Many other quassinoids have been investigated for their immune-modulating and antiviral properties as well. Our extract is standardized to contain ≥12% Eurycomanone, which places it far above the potency of most commercially available Tongkat Ali extracts.
The aphrodisiac effects of Tongkat Ali are well known. Tongkat appears to have a large body of evidence supporting its role as a pro-fertility agent and aphrodisiac, and some evidence suggesting it may be an anti-estrogen and pro-erectile agent. Unlike Yohimbe, Tongkat is otherwise non-stimulatory and may reduce feelings of stress.
While Tongkat Ali is still being studied to determine if it may have a significant impact on testosterone production, extracts of its root appear to increase the free circulating concentrations of naturally produced endogenous hormones, and the extract is thought to maintain and support healthy hormone production regardless of biological sex.
