What's that mean? Like am I specifically hunting "natural" remedies?

No.

I am just following data to the stuff that has evidence it works. This one is particularly compelling for the breadth of benefits and the evidence quality is better than many other herbs and traditional medicines.
There are a handful of herbs i buy on the reg...ksm ashwagandha is one...other good ones are amla berry...chaga, cortacypts, reishi mushroom are very good

american,Korean, siberian ginseng

Black ginger and black cummin seed are solid as well

Whats your goal in supplementing?

what did you order? provide a link

I will take some to increase our sample size
I'm in.

So what are we doing? What's the dosage used in the studies? Are we going to standardize what we're all buying so we can compare results?

In for boners.

Just placed an Amazon order for the same supplement they used in the study - shoden beads. Will report boners.

Seriously though, if it proves to decrease cortisol and increase testosterone I would be very impressed.

I would not buy this brand again btw. I ordered gummies because I am more likely to take them due to flavor.
1> they are terrible tasting and consistency compared to usual gummy vitamins
2> 4 pills a day to get the 600mg oft cited dosage = 30 days between the two bottles. Not one month per bottle.

Reduces stress in double blind RCT

Increases muscle building in double blind RCT

Increases sperm production

Only longterm safety is in animal models. No longer term studies in humans.


Anyone ever take this stuff?
Should we get in on this @Lars ?

With the amount of excitement we’re seeing in this thread, I’m starting to think y’all are a bunch of limp dicks.

I have taken it. Subtle but unmistakable benefits. I handle stress better and feel better overall. Big fan of it.

I alternate it and rhodeola rosea, which provides similar benefits but possibly a shade better for me. I alternate them so that I greatly reduce the risk of them losing effectiveness, which reportedly can happen.

Give this a look. Great site with solid information.

I've taken it for several months, to wind down before bed. Gummies.
Works & tasty.
