Tongkat Ali is a tall, slender, shrubby tree that grows in sandy soil and can reach a height of 10 to 15 meters. It belongs to the bitterwood family and is used as a medicinal herb in Southeast Asian countries, mainly in Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand, and Myanmar.
Its roots, stems and bark are used as folk medicine to relieve a variety of ailments including: pain, fever, sexual insufficiency, dysentery and fatigue.
what are the benefits of it?
1. Beneficial idiopathic male infertility
Male infertility, the inability of a man to conceive a fertile woman, accounts for 40-50% of infertility and affects about 7% of men.
Up to 90% of male infertility problems are associated with sperm defects (the most common feature of idiopathic male infertility), most notably low sperm concentration (oligospermia), poor sperm motility (ejaculation) and abnormal sperm morphology (dysmorphogenesis), while other factors include varicocele, semen volume and other abnormalities of the epididymis, prostate and seminal vesicles.
A study (3 months, 75 men with idiopathic infertility) showed that oral administration of a standardized extract of Tongkat Ali (200 mg daily dose) helped to improve semen volume, sperm concentration, sperm motility and morphology, and the percentage of normal spermatozoa.
*Conclusion: Tongkat Ali may help improve semen parameters and may be useful in men with idiopathic infertility, but more studies are needed due to small sample size.
2. Beneficial immune function
Human survival is closely linked to a functional immune system that protects the host from infections and malignant tumors, regulates wound healing, and ultimately separates the “self” from surrounding organisms that compete for space and resources.
The innate immune system provides a rapid and effective immune response, but lacks discrimination and long-term memory. The adaptive immune system functions through precise recognition of antigens, memory formation, and the provision of adaptive proliferation of antigen-specific immune cells.
A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled parallel study (4 weeks in 84 immunocompromised middle-aged men and women) noted that a standardized aqueous extract of Tongkat Ali root improved immune vitality scores and immune grade scores.
In addition, the total T-cell count, CD4+ T-cell count, and initial T-cell count immunity indices were also improved in the Tongkat Ali group
＊Conclusion: Tongkat Ali may have a positive effect on enhancing immunity, but due to the small sample size, more studies are needed to further validate this effect.
Dose it have side effects?
According to available studies, a dosage of Tongkat Ali of 200 mg per day for 9 months or 400 mg per day for 3 months may be safe.
Side effects or adverse reactions that have been reported are: insomnia, restlessness, anxiety…etc.
Safety Precautions (6 points of contraindication to use)
1. Pregnant women, lactating women, and children should avoid use.
2. Avoid use if you have abnormal liver or kidney function.
3. When purchasing, please choose a credible manufacturer as there have been cases where the product has been found to contain toxic metal residues such as mercury, cadmium, lead, etc., or the addition of drugs (sildenafil) for the treatment of impotence.
4. Because Tongkat Ali raises testosterone levels, it should not be used for: heart disease, high blood pressure, male breast cancer, prostate cancer, liver or kidney disease, sleep apnea, enlarged prostate, stroke, erythrocytosis, depression, anxiety, mood disorders, etc., which may be adversely affected by high testosterone levels.
