Tongkat Ali extract benefit - Tongkat Ali side effects - Information on LJ100 Tongkat ali extract

 

Tongkat ali root works very well as an aphrodisiac, however high doses have side effects as listed a few paragraphs below. It is a good idea to use a low dosage of tongkat ali and not to take this herb every day. There is much misinformation on tongkat ali herb on the internet and many websites promote very high dosages which are likely to cause extremely unpleasant side effects. We trust the formulas and dosages made available by Dr. Ray Sahelian, M.D. He advises treating this aphrodisiac herb with respect.
   As a supplement, tongkat ali is available as a full spectrum powder, for instance Tongkat ali 200 mg, or in various extract potencies including a popular high potency extract called LJ100. Do not take more than 25 mg of LJ100 a day, preferable every other day or every third day. We have had reports of unpleasant side effects with people taking more than 50 mg of LJ100 a day. Often you will find LJ100 products in a 80 mg dosage. The 80 mg of LJ100 dosage is not well tolerated by many users. As with many aphrodisiac herbs, it is better to use lower amounts and proceed with a slower sexual enhancement over several days as opposed to shocking the body with a high amount leading to unpleasant side effects. As to the full spectrum tongkat ali, a dose of 200 mg two days on, one or more days off, is reasonable. Some people may need to use it less frequently, others more frequently. There is an excellent, doctor-formulated, highly popular sexual enhancing product with tongkat ali called Passion Rx. Passion Rx has a very high reorder rate and it really works to enhance sexual pleasure and performance, in men and women.

What is tongkat ali ? Tongkat ali supplement information
 Tongkat Ali ( Eurycoma longifolia jack ) is a small tree found in the jungles throughout Indonesia, Malaysia and Southeat Asia. It is commonly known as Tongkat Ali in Malaysia and Singapore, Piak or Tung Saw in Thailand, and Pasak Bumi in Indonesia. The Tongkat Ali tree can grow up to about 12 meters in height. Natives consider every part of the tongkat ali tree as medicine. Tongkat Ali is used as a tonic, to treat malaria, and as an aphrodisiac. In the old days, tongkat ali roots had to be brewed for long hours to get a bitter extract. Now tongkat ali, which literally means Ali's cane, is packed in pill or "tea-bag" form and mixed with regular coffee or tea. Tongkat ali coffee and tea are now sold in Malaysia's roadside hawker stalls, supermarkets and even at restaurants in posh hotels. LJ100 is a potent version of tongkat ali. Tongkat ali is available as a supplement in various extract potencies. You can find tongkat ali powder, tongkat ali extract 1:10, tongkat ali extract 1:20, tongkat ali extract 1:50, and even higher concentrations. It is impossible to determine which extract potency will work for you unless you try it. All of these extract potencies appear to be effective but different people have different preferences. For more  Tongkat Ali research information.

 

What the research says about tongkat ali benefits:
Most of the research with tongkat ali root has focused on its benefit for sexual enhancement. However, there has been some laboratory and animal research regarding the influence of tongkat ali against malaria and as a anti cancer herb. For the time being, there seems to be clear tongkat ali benefit as a sexual enhancer. Future research will determine whether this root has any clinical application in terms of malaria treatment, cancer prevention or treatment, or any other benefits.

Benefit of tongkat ali as an aphrodisiac
Over the past few years, there have been quite a number of studies that have shown tongkat ali root to have libido-boosting properties. The effects of tongkat ali root were studied on the libido of male rats after dosing them twice daily for 10 days. Results showed that tongkat ali root produced a dose-dependent increase in mounting frequency, that is, the number of times the male rats tried to mount the female rats increased as the dose given to the rats increased. In addition, the rats given tongkat ali root displayed more frequent and vigorous licking and anogenital sniffing towards the receptive females. Furthermore, the rats dosed with tongkat ali root spent more time grooming their genitals compared to the rats who were not given the plant. Genital grooming may be interpreted as self-pleasuring since the rats were most likely enjoying the sensation of touching themselves. The researchers noticed another interesting finding: while the rats who had not received tongkat ali root showed normal behavior within the cage such as exploration and climbing the cage wall, the rats given tongkat ali stayed around the females instead of exploring the cage. In human terms this may be interpreted as a man spending more time in the kitchen helping his wife wash the dishes than in the den lounged in a Lazyboy chair absorbed by a baseball game :). Tongkat ali also increased the frequency of the rats' penis erections.


Benefit of tTongkat ali for cancer
Beta-carboline alkaloids isolated from tongkat ali have demonstrated significant cytotoxicity against human lung cancer (A-549) and human breast cancer (MCF-7) cell lines. In plain English, this means that some compounds in Tongkat ali can kill cancer cells. The practical significance of this finding in humans is not clear at this time. Tongkat ali supplements can cause side effects if used daily in high dosages, so we don't know if small amounts of tongkat ali supplements could have an anti-cancer benefit.

Tongkat ali benefit for malaria
Interestingly, scientists have found that, in addition to its sex-enhancing effects, compounds within tongkat ali root have anti-malarial properties.

Tongkat ali eurycoma longifolia mechanism of action
Very little is known regarding the mechanisms of action of tongkat ali extract. Recent studies indicate that the root contains several compounds including beta-carboline alkaloids and quassinoid-type glycosides, including eurycomaoside. How these compounds and many others in tongkat ali root influence hormonal release or the human sexual response is not clearly understood at this time. We have read promotional material by some vitamin companies regarding tongkat ali extract that it enhances testosterone production or release, however we have not been able to definitively confirm this claim through a Medline search.

 

Availability of tongkat ali - tongkat ali dosage
Tongkat Ali is sold as a powder, in capsules, sometimes mixed with other herbs. There are a number of tongkat ali extracts available in various potencies, and since each company has a different way of extracting, and since there are no established standards, it is difficult to give dosage recommendations that would be consistently effective with few side effects. In addition to tongkat ali being available as a raw powder, it is sold in extracts as a 4:1, 5:1, 20:1 and a 100:1 concentration. At the higher concentrations it becomes difficult to dose appropriately since the margin of error in terms of effectiveness versus side effects becomes more challenging.

 

Q. What is the ideal tongkat ali dosage?
   A. Although high dosages of tongkat ali work quicker, they also can produce unpleasant side effects. Hence, we suggest starting at a lower amount, such as 200 mg of tongkat ali root powder, and to use this amount every other day or two days on, one or more days off. Use a lower amount of tongkat ali dosage if you live in a hot climate since this herb can raise body temperature.

Tongkat Ali side effects
One of the shortcomings of Tongkat Ali is that it can easily cause insomnia, and lack of sleep can lower sex drive. Therefore it is somewhat difficult to find the right dose that works without causing this insomnia, and that's where an experienced herbalist who has wide knowledge with this plant is crucial in terms of formulating the right product with the right amount and extract potency of tongkat ali. High doses can also cause increased body temperature. Some people find that when they take a high dose, they become restless and impatient, perhaps easily angered. Long term effects of tongkat ali on human consumption are not known. It is best, until we learn more, to not take tongkat ali continuously without breaks. Some people prefer tongkat ali every other day, or 2 days on, 2 days off, or just a couple of days a week. In fact, taking tongkat ali 2 days a week minimizes any potential tongkat ali side effects.

 

Tongkat Ali eurycoma longifolia questions
Q. Is it possible that chronic use, increasing over time due to tolerance, of OTC herbals such as tribulus terrestris, tongkat ali, etc. can lead to secondary hypogonadism due, such as the HTPA axis being so imbalanced that it cannot easily be restarted?
   A. The hormonal influence of tongkat ali, tribulus terrestris, and many other herbs, when used on a chronic basis, is not fully known since human studies are few, but this, and other scenarios, are theoretically possible. We always recommend people take breaks from the use of herbs. In most people, tongkat ali only needs to be taken 2 or 3 days a week.
 

Q. What is the difference in strength between tongkat ali 400 mg and tongkat ali LJ100:1?
   A. it's difficult to say, some people prefer LJ100 25 mg while we have feedback just the opposite, others prefering tongkat ali 400 mg to tongkat ali lj100. Many people actually prefer using half a capsule of tongkat ali 400 mg 2 days on, 2 or more days off.
 

Q.  I have been taking tablets of 80 mg Tongkat Ali at ratio of 100:1 but I am also considering tongkat ali root powder, 400mg capsules. I need to know what the ratio this tongkat ali product is based on so i know how many tablets equals the dosage i am presently taking.
   A. Herbs are available as the regular full spectrum powder and also in various extract potencies. There is a misconception that if an extract is 10:1 that means it is 10 times as potent, or if it is 100:1 then it is 100 times more potent, but that is not the case. When an herb is concentrated, sometimes some of the other active ingredients are removed since the manufacturers focus on a particular substance within an herb rather than the full spectrum of potential beneficial substances. Many people find full spectrum tongkat ali 400 mg regular powder to be too potent and half the amount works well. We often suggest using less tongkat ali since side effects occur on high doses including disturbed sleep and high body temperature and irritability. If insomnia occurs, that can take away the positive tongkat ali benefit of the sexual enhancement since sleep is important for libido. Most people prefer taking half a capsule of tongkat ali 400 mg, every other day, or two days on, 2 or more days off. Taking days off actually makes tongkat ali work better. As to tongkat ali LJ100, high doses, such as over 25 mg, may work well, but also cause unpleasant side effects. Dr. Ray Sahelian has formulated a product at 25 mg of LJ100 in order to minimize the tongkat ali side effects.

Q. How quickly does tongkat ali or LJ100 work?

   A. Herbs are not like drugs, they take a few days before working at their best. You can take one capsule LJ100 in the morning every other day or 3 days a week. We suggest not taking Viagra the same day as LJ100. Viagra can be taken on a day when you are not taking LJ100 and it is better to use a smaller dose of Viagra than you normally do the next day. LJ100 and many other herbs have a delayed effect into the second and third day after taking a capsule.

Q. Do you have a tongkat ali eurycoma longifolia picture?
   A. We are in the process of finding a high resolution tongkat ali picture.
 

 Q. Is it possible that chronic use, increasing over time due to tolerance, of OTC herbals such as Tongkat Ali can lead to secondary hypogonadism due, such as the HTPA axis being so imbalanced that it cannot easily be restarted?
   A. The hormonal influence of tongkat al and many other herbs, when used on a chronic basis, is not fully known since human studies are few, but this, and other scenarios, are theoretically possible. We always recommend people take breaks from the use of herbs. In most people, tongkat ali only needs to be taken 2 or 3 days a week.
 

Q. I tried Tongkat ali supplement and was impressed by the feverish feeling it gave me. It is not a pleasant thing to take in an un-airconditioned apartment in Saigon, Vietnam.
 

Tongkat Ali research and malaria
Effect of Eurycoma longifolia extract on the Glutathione level in Plasmodium falciparum infected erythrocytes in vitro.
 Tropical Biomed. 2005 Dec;22(2):155-63. Herbal Medicine Research Center, Institute for Medical Research, Jalan Pahang,50588 Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
Tongkat ali methanol extract was studied on the GSH levels of P. falciparum infected erythrocytes and uninfected erythrocytes. About 95% to 100% growth inhibition of P. falciparum infected erythrocyte was observed when treated with tongkat ali. The study on GSH contents indicated that non-infected erythrocytes treated with tongkat ali at 24 hours incubation showed less GSH content as compared to non-treated erythrocytes. A similar observation was seen on treated trophozoite infected erythrocyte (10% parasitemia). Analysis of the GSH contents of parasite compartments treated with tongkat ali indicated a reduction of GSH contents. At the same concentration, tongkat ali did not affect the GSH contents of enriched trophozoite infected erythrocytes (60-70% parasitemia). Tongkat ali did affect the GSH content of non-infected erythrocyte at 24 hours (accept IC50 value) as well as the parasite compartments (trophozoite infected erythrocyte and parasite itself) but fails to affect the GSH content of enriched trophozoite infected erythrocyte.

 

Cytotoxic effects of the root extracts of Eurycoma longifolia Jack - Tongkat Ali.
 Phytother Res. 2005 Nov;19(11):994-6. Biotechnology Division, Forest Research Institute Malaysia, 52109, Kepong, Selangor, Malaysia.
Extracts obtained from the root of tongkat ali were assayed to evaluate its cytotoxic effect against KB, DU-145, RD, MCF-7, CaOV-3, MDBK cell lines. The results showed that all the tongkat ali root extracts except the water extract of tongkat ali produced significant cytotoxic effect on these cell lines. However, no significant cytotoxic effect was detected on MDBK (kidney) normal cell line.

Q. Does tongkat ali increase testosterone levels?
   A. As of January 2008, we have not come across any definitive human research regarding the influence of tongkat ali on testosterone levels. Even if tongkat ali helps make or release testosterone, would the effects continue over time? The answers are not clear at this time. We do know that taking a tongkal ali supplement helps increase libido and genital sensation, along with orgasm strength. Are these due to testosterone release or due to other factors?

Tongkat ali emails
Q. Before I buy tongkat ali extract, I would like to know if it interferes with heart medications or is safe for someone with heart disease.
   A. Tongkat ali, in high doses, can increase heart rate, and in very high doses could cause heart rhythm problems. This would not be a major problem in those who have normal hearts since the effects are temporary, but in those who have heart disease, unexpected complications could occur. Hence, we don't suggest you buy tongkat ali if you have a heart condition.

 

Q. I read somewhere that tongkat ali causes penis size enlargement. What is the influence of tongkat ali on penis size and growth?
   A. Tongkat ali can help with improving penis blood flow, but it will not help your penis grow bigger than it would normally under maximal and ideal stimulation. In other words, tongkat ali can help your penis engorge to the maximum it would if you were quite stimulated, but it is not going to make your penis grow an inch or two.

 

Q. I understand in southeast Asia. like Indonesia or Malaysia, they drink tongkat ali coffee, is this true? If so, can I mix tongkat ali powder in my coffee?
   A. Yes, in Malaysia, Indonesia, and Thailand they do drink tongkat ali coffee. You can mix tongkat ali in your coffee but we don't see any advantage to doing this. Coffee is a stimulant, so is tongkat ali. Plus, this root does not taste that well, it fact it is quite bitter.

 

Q. What are your thoughts regarding the use of tongkat ali for bodybuilding purposes since this root extract may stimulate testosterone?
   A. We prefer using more effective supplements for body building such as creatine and protein powders.

Q. Do you have tongkat ali reviews of the different products on the internet?
   A. There are dozens of companies that sell tongkat ali eurycoma longifolia products. We have not done a review of the different supplements to see how effective they are. Some products have too high a dosage of tongkat ali and if you do purchase them, use a portion of a capsule.

 

Q. Is it okay to take extracts of tongkat ali and ginseng the same day?
   A. Both of these herbs are potent, and they are fine to take together only in very small dosages, otherwise you are likely to get insomnia.

 

Q. Can I open a capsule of tongkat ali extract and make tea out of it?
   A. You can, but this root has a bitter taste.

Q. Can women use tongkat ali? Does this root enhance sexuality in a woman?
   A. Yes, but since women are smaller, the dosage would be less.

Q. Is tongkat extract safe to take with antidepressant medications such as SSRIs?
   A. Tongkat ali may not be safe to take along with SSRI medications such as Prozac or Paxil. Tongkat ali is a potent herb and could cause rapid heart beat, increased body temperature, restlessness, or other side effects when combined with medicines that that have an influence on neurotransmitters. If your doctor approves, you may wish to skip your depression medication during the days that you take tongkat extract.
