Well, then I’m sure you’re already aware of just how much perverted thoughts get while on stuff like Horny Goat Weed and Tribulus. Man, watch out as it increases our wandering eyes and it’s always targeted at booties. 🙂 > [@peregrine](#): > > I already think perverted. LOL.

Never heard of Maca. But, if you are looking for an herbal that boosts testosterone, I can confirm that Tongkat Ali is VERY effective in that regard, as long as you get the real stuff. There is a huge problem with herbals in that many (if not MOST) suppliers sell you extremely substandard stuff with very little active ingredient. They are able to get away with this because of a near complete lack of regulation of the entire industry in the US. Anyway, the place to get REAL Tongkat Ali is from Sumatra Pasak Bumi. Tongkat Ali is prepared by boiling the bark to make a “tea”. Then, the water is evaporated, leaving behind a brownish powder. The “potency” of the product is measured by how much bark is used to make a certain amount of the powder. 1:50 strength means they used 50 grams of bark to make the powder, while 1:200 strength means they used 200 grams. The reason this is important is its a terrible way to measure potency and there is no proof that 1:200 is any more potent than 1:50. The standard dose of tongkat ali is 1 gram a day of the 1:50 strength powder. Supposedly, you could, instead, take 1/4 of a gram of 1:200 strength instead. But I wouldn’t count on that or pay the extra cost for the 1:200 strength. Instead, use 1:50 and experiment with the amount you take, starting at 1 gram. Tongkat Ali tastes TERRIBLE. Whatever you do, do not take the powder straight. You will regret it for hours and hours. Instead, buy a cheap pill filler from [Amazon.com](http://Amazon.com) or something and get a pack of 500 empty gelatin capsules in 500 mg size. It takes like 5 minutes to fill 2 dozen capsules with this stuff and gets rid of the taste issue. For whatever reason, these guys want to charge extra for filling their product into capsules but its something you can do yourself cheaply and easily. How long til you see effects with Tongkat Ali? About an hour later you end up with a raging boner. Alot of guys use this stuff for weight training. Those effects take several weeks to become obvious and require a much higher dose. The effects are obvious though (as are the side effects, lol). ---

> [@mikotorocks714](#): > > Pretty much Gegogi, although I think Tribulus and Longjack (Tongkat Ali; sounds like a freaking name for an old school boxer) may give better results, as I think Maca takes a while to work in your body. It’s supposed to help with hormones in your body somehow too. > > [Maca - Fresh Organic Peruvian Maca Root Maca Root Powder.](http://www.biomaca.fr) is supposed to have high quality Maca, not sure if it’s still active though as it looks like the website hasn’t been updated in awhile. In response to the Maca. There are two types on the market. Most are for sexual health. But for hormone issues the better one contains glucosinolates. However it seems to take 2 weeks to adjust to the herb. As for your original question I would think diet changes have a two fold effect on hormone / pheromone production. Since your body is a very complex machine you get out of it what you put into it. Better nutrition should yield better results. The fatty acids do affect our hormones so that should be a positive change. But beyond that your body is built to reproduce ? sorry but it’s true. So it seems to follow that improving your health and hormones would encourage you body to produce more [pheromones](https://pheromonelabs.com/) to signal you ready for sexual activity. Another question this brings to my mind is does The Pill affect pheromone production due to the way it works? ---

If so, do you still endorse this combo? As in you still use it? If so, what are your thoughts on yohimbine being in there? I hear it’s a dangerous product. Thanks!
