Tahna Prana Elevated Tongkat Ali Extract Capsules — Full Spectrum Tongkat Ali Extract and Isolated Eurycomanone — 120 Count

The traditional use of Tongkat Ali, combined with validated insights provided by contemporary scientific research, provides ample support for Tongkat Ali's moniker, "The Original Indonesian Aphrodisiac."

Tongkat Ali is an adaptogenic and tonic herb in its own right, with therapeutic potential overshadowed only by its popularity as a pro-androgenic herb.

As a Pro-Androgenic herb, research indicates that Tongkat Ali stimulatesthe HPA and HPG axis, leading to an increase in natural (endogenous) testosterone production.* Additionally, Tongkat Ali may contain anti-aromatase properties, potentially raising free testosterone levels while reducing estradiol levels.*

Our Tahna Prana Elevated Tongkat Ali Extract is expertly formulated using our full potency, full spectrum Tongkat Ali (200:1 concentration) and highly purified, isolated Eurycomanone extract. For enhanced absorption, we have incorporated Piperine, a compound extracted from Black Pepper Fruit.

This unique combination allows us to fully unlock the potential of one of our all-time favorite pro-androgenic herb.

Key Features:

• Made with select, choice, wild-harvested Eurycoma longifolia Jack—the only authentic Tongkat Ali available;
• Contains the most potent broad-spectrum Tongkat Ali Extract available, ensuring maximum potency, purity, and quality;
• Fortified with the highly sought-after isolated Eurycomanone (Std. to 2%), the primary compound responsible for Tongkat Ali's pro-androgenic effects;
• Tongkat Ali provides unparalleled support for maintaining healthy and optimal testosterone levels;
• Elevated with Piperine, an extract of Black Pepper that has been shown to increase the absorption of certain herbs by up to 20 times (2000%) and is an exercise mimetic;
• Domestically produced in an NSF, GMP-registered, and certified organic facility, ensuring the highest standards of quality and purity.

Who is Tongkat Ali For?

Tongkat Ali is an ideal herb for individuals interested in increasing their testosterone levels, which may have declined due to illness, aging, or other factors.

Tongkat Ali is a potent pro-androgenic herb that supports healthy testosterone levels.* Utilizing pro-androgenic herbs to address low testosterone is not about promoting hyper-masculinity; instead, it focuses on promoting overall well-being, quality of life, and healthy aging.

Who Isn't Tongkat Ali For?

Tongkat Ali is not suitable for those seeking a "quick fix." The benefits of Tongkat Ali as an adaptogenic and tonic herb manifest with regular and consistent use.

Tongkat Ali does not supplement the body with testosterone; instead, it works in conjunction with the body to enhance its own (endogenous) testosterone production.* This process takes time.

Tongkat Ali is well-suited for those looking for a natural approach to promote health and wellness.

The Importance of Tahna Prana Elevated Tongkat Ali Extract

To understand what sets this formula apart, let's examine its ingredients.

Tongkat Ali Extract (200:1 Concentration)

Tongkat Ali offers much more than its pro-androgenic properties.

Rather than viewing Tongkat Ali solely as a pro-androgenic herb with adaptogenic and tonic qualities, Tongkat Ali should be recognized as an adaptogenic and tonic herb with potent pro-androgenic properties.

To unlock the full potential of Tongkat Ali as an adaptogen and tonic herb, and to provide a comprehensive range of benefits, we utilize a full potency, full spectrum extract of authentic, wild-harvested Tongkat Ali ( Eurycoma longifolia) (refer to the attached Certificate of Authenticity linked below).

A full-spectrum extraction ensures the availability of a wide range of benefits.

Isolated Eurycomanone

Authentic Tongkat Ali contains a class of therapeutic compounds known as quassinoids, with over 60 quassinoids identified in Tongkat Ali. Researchers have noted the potential therapeutic applications of these quassinoids, including anti-cancer properties, antiviral effects, and anti-inflammatory benefits.* It is important to note that while research suggests these properties, we do not claim that Tongkat Ali—or any herb—can or should be used to prevent or treat any disease, including cancer.

One of the quassinoids identified in Tongkat Ali is Eurycomanone. Eurycomanone plays a pivotal role in Tongkat Ali's pro-androgenic benefits.*

However, the unprocessed Tongkat Ali roots contain Eurycomanone in levels too small and insignificant to deliver therapeutic benefits.

To address the naturally occurring low levels of therapeutic quassinoids found in Tongkat Ali and provide unparalleled support, our Tahna Prana Elevated Tongkat Ali Extract combine a potent full spectrum (200:1 / 200x) Tongkat Ali extract with an Eurycomanone extract standardized to 2%. This unique combination optimizes the broad benefits of Tongkat Ali while maximizing its specific pro-androgenic effects.*

Piperine

Piperine is a compound found in Black Pepper Fruit (Piper nigrum). In this formula, Piperine serves two primary functions as a phyto-therapeutic:

• Piperine enhances the absorption of other herbs, such as turmeric, by up to 2000% (further details below).
• Piperine acts as an exercise mimetic, meaning it can replicate some of the benefits of physical exercise (more information on this below).

The recommended dosage of Piperine is between 10 and 20 milligrams. Each serving of this formula contains 20 milligrams of Piperine, which accounts for only 4.17% of the total ingredients. You can enjoy all the benefits without compromising the overall amount of Tongkat Ali.

Key Benefits Associated with Tongkat Ali

Tongkat Ali offers far more than its exceptional pro-androgenic properties. By solely focusing on its pro-androgenic aspect, we fail to appreciate the full range of benefits this herb provides.

Contemporary scientific research sheds light on the significance of Tongkat Ali's longstanding traditional uses, reinforcing its reputation.

As time progresses and more research is conducted on Tongkat Ali, the plant continues to unveil its vast potential beyond its ethnobotanical history.

The extensive range of benefits is precisely why we strongly advocate for the utilization of a comprehensive, full-spectrum Tongkat Ali Extract.

Presently, the predominant attention on Tongkat Ali revolves around the following potential benefits and applications:

• Supporting the body's natural (endogenous) production of androgenic hormones, including testosterone;
• Promoting the development of lean muscle mass, enhancing physical strength and energy;
• Assisting in male reproductive health;
• Increasing levels of testosterone and the neurotransmitter dopamine, thereby enhancing libido and desire;
• Regulating the hormone cortisol, thereby improving the body's response to stress (adaptogenic);
• Enhancing blood flow;
• Boosting cognitive function.
• Laboratory research has indicated that authentic Tongkat Ali (Eurycoma longifolia Jack) possesses anti-cancer and anti-tumor properties, demonstrating beneficial effects against prostate cancer cells (it is crucial to emphasize that Tongkat Ali, or any product, is not claimed to be a preventive or cure for cancer);
• Traditionally utilized in Indonesia as an aphrodisiac, tonic herb, and folk remedy for various tropical diseases.*

Tongkat Ali: An In-depth Analysis

What is Tongkat Ali?

Tongkat Ali is a traditional phyto-therapeutic medicine native to Southeast Asia. It is also known as Pasak Bumi or Longjack. The botanical name for Tongkat Ali is Eurycoma longifolia Jack.

Tongkat Ali (Eurycoma longifolia) originates from Southeast Asia, specifically Indochina, Indonesia, Cambodia, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, Thailand, Vietnam, Borneo, and Sumatra. The medicinal properties of Tongkat Ali are derived from the bark of its roots. *

There are two other plants often mislabeled as Tongkat Ali: Black Tongkat Ali and Red Tongkat Ali.

The authentic Tongkat Ali plant, botanically known as Eurycoma longifolia Jack, should be distinguished from these mislabeled plants.

To avoid confusion between authentic Tongkat Ali and other plants, we exclusively use the name Tongkat Ali to refer to Eurycoma longifolia Jack unless specifically addressing the misidentification issue.

Why is the distinction important?

Differentiating authentic Tongkat Ali—Eurycoma longifolia Jack—is crucial because its historical use as a medicinal phyto-therapeutic herb and the substantial body of contemporary research supporting its benefits are exclusive to Tongkat Ali from Eurycoma longifolia.

The most commonly misidentified plant as Tongkat Ali is Polyalthia bullata, often referred to as Black Tongkat Ali or Pasak Mubi.

Polyalthia bullata bears no botanical relationship to Eurycoma longifolia. While Polyalthia bullata may possess phyto-therapeutic potential, it should not be misidentified as Tongkat Ali from Eurycoma longifolia.

Understanding the Colors of Tongkat Ali

Some classify Tongkat Ali based on color, and understanding the origins of these classifications can help identify authentic Tongkat Ali.

White Tongkat Ali and Yellow Tongkat Ali

White Tongkat Ali and Yellow Tongkat Ali refer to the botanically correct Tongkat Ali: Eurycoma longifolia Jack.

As mentioned earlier, the medicinal properties of Tongkat Ali are derived from the light-colored bark of its roots, resulting in a yellowish extract.

In Malay (the language of Malaysia) and Indonesian, authentic Tongkat Ali is known as Bedara Putih and Pasak Bumi Kuning.

Putih translates as "white," and Kuning translates as "yellow."

Black Tongkat Ali

Black Tongkat Ali refers to the plant Polyalthia bullata, which, as previously mentioned, is not botanically related to Eurycoma longifolia. While it may have some phyto-therapeutic benefits, it lacks the extensive historical use and scientific evidence that Tongkat Ali from Eurycoma longifolia possesses.

In Malay and Indonesian, Black Tongkat Ali is known as Pasak Bumi Hitam.

Hitam translates as "black.

Red Tongkat Ali

Very little is known about Red Tongkat Ali, and there is no botanical name available for it.

The closest identification we have for Red Tongkat Ali is Stema tuberosa, which is sometimes found for sale on the internet.

However, there is no such plant.

There is a plant called Stemona tuberosa, which is used therapeutically in Chinese medicine. Stemona tuberosa, known as Bai Bu (Hundred Parts), is used for parasite treatment and to moisturize the lungs and relieve coughing.

In Malay and Indonesian, Red Tongkat Ali is referred to as Pasak Bumi Merah.

Merah translates as "red."

Further research is required to determine if the plant exists and its safety and effectiveness before any assessments can be made. Our search yielded no scientific or research entries for "Stema Tuberosa" or "Pasak Bumi Merah," except for a single entry in the National Institutes of Health database discussing the use of authentic Tongkat Ali (Eurycoma longifolia) as an alternative treatment to pharmaceutical testosterone replacement therapy in the treatment of osteoporosis. This paper does not mention Black or Red Tongkat Ali.

Quassinoids: The Active Compounds of Tongkat Ali

Tongkat Ali (Eurycoma longifolia Jack) contains several therapeutic quassinoid compounds that have been isolated and identified. These quassinoids offer various positive benefits to the body.*

Research on the isolated quassinoids in Tongkat Ali demonstrates the herb's broad range of benefits, including potential anti-tumor, antiviral, antifeedant, antiamoebic, and anti-inflammatory properties.* Additionally, it highlights the pro-androgenic properties of Tongkat Ali.*

Tongkat Ali contains 65 known and identified compounds, including:

• Beta-carboline alkaloids;
• Eurycomalactone;
• Eurycomanone;
• Eurycomaoside.*

Tongkat Ali, Eurycomanone, and Testosterone

Does Tongkat Ali Increase Testosterone?

One notable quassinoid found in Tongkat Ali (Eurycoma longifolia) is Eurycomanone, which plays a significant role in the herb's pro-androgenic properties.

Comprehensive research indicates that Eurycomanone is responsible for the pro-androgenic effects of Tongkat Ali.

In a study published in the Journal of Ethnopharmacology, researchers state:

Eurycoma longifolia Jack (Simaroubaceae family), known locally as 'Tongkat Ali' by the ethnic population, is popularly taken as a traditional remedy to improve the male libido, sexual prowess, and fertility ... Eurycomanone, the highest concentrated quassinoid in the root extract of E. longifolia improved fertility by increasing testosterone and spermatogenesis of rats through the hypothalamus-pituitary-gonadal axis, but the mechanisms underlying the effects are not totally clear.

The researchers conclude:

Eurycomanone enhanced testosterone steroidogenesis at the Leydig cells by inhibiting aromatase conversion of testosterone to oestrogen, and at a high concentration may also involve phosphodiesterase inhibition. The quassinoid may be worthy for further development as a phytomedicine to treat testosterone-deficient idiopathic male infertility and sterility.

In summary, the study found that Eurycomanone in Tongkat Ali increased testosterone levels and sperm production. It achieved this by stimulating the body's own testosterone production through the activation of the HPA/HPG axis and by inhibiting the aromatase enzyme, which converts testosterone into estradiol (E2).

This research indicates two distinct pro-androgenic properties of Tongkat Ali:

1. Increase in testosterone production.
2. Increase in levels of free (active) testosterone by preventing the conversion of testosterone into estradiol.*

The significance and uniqueness of these dual properties, as well as the essential nature of Tongkat Ali as a pro-androgenic herb, cannot be emphasized enough.

Does Tongkat Ali Increase Libido?

The Neurotransmitter of Desire: Tongkat Ali, Libido, and Dopamine

Both in herbal medicine circles and academic research, the effects of Tongkat Ali on promoting libido are widely recognized and acknowledged. While the positive effects of Tongkat Ali on male sex hormones have long been known, it was previously assumed that Tongkat Ali influenced libido solely by increasing testosterone levels. Undoubtedly, there is a connection between Tongkat Ali, sex hormone levels, and sexual desire.

However, there is more to the story—dopamine.

Dopamine is often regarded as the reward neurotransmitter. It enhances the pleasure we experience from the first bite of food, the satisfaction of achieving a goal, and overall feelings of accomplishment. But dopamine can be better understood as the neurotransmitter of desire. It not only rewards us for achieving a goal; it motivates us to pursue that goal. Without dopamine, we lack drive, motivation, and desire. Libido is rooted in desire.

The scientific evidence supporting the relationship between Tongkat Ali and dopamine is compelling, as researchers state:

The current data confirm the aphrodisiac and anabolic activities of E. longifolia roots aqueous extract in male Sprague-Dawley rats. This can be attributed, at least partly, to elevation of blood testosterone level as well as enhancement of brain cortical and hippocampal dopamine content.

This implies that Tongkat Ali, in addition to its impact on testosterone levels, has been shown to increase dopamine levels, which in turn leads to heightened libido.
