Higher dose Tongkat Ali

[3ChainedAminos]

Every now and then I run across a brand called LVLUP that pops up on my searches. I’ve never ordered from them before but have noticed some of their products look ok but very expensive. Something I haven’t seen before is their Tongkat Ali, which is extremely high dosed compared to other supplements. It’s 1100mg standardized at 2% Eurycomanone. Which puts it at 22mg per serving. Just curious if anyone has experimented in this dose range before? Ive taken Tongkat Ali stand alone and in a blend before, but never at that high of a dose, so just curious on yalls opinion or experience.

Something important to take into consideration is whether the testing is done via HPLC or UV because UV testing with many herbal constituents will show an artificially high number as compared to HPLC.

I actually would never use or put that high of a dose of Eurycomanone by HPLC in anything - it would not be a good thing in my opinion.

Tongkat Ali XT is 300 mg. at min. 2% and the max dose is 2 per day and I have people ask all the time about exceeding that dose and my answer is do not exceed that dose.

We have been considering doing a 10% Eurycomanone and if we do, the max daily dose will be 10 mg. Eurycomanone per day.

Yeah I figured that dose was wild because I haven’t seen any other supplement even close to that. And that’s interesting about the HPLC vs UV showing artificially high numbers, I knew the testing method mattered but not about that. Thanks for the reply.
