Product Description
Herbolab Standardized Tongkat Ali Extract Capsules
Tongkat ali is a plant that is indigenous to Malaysia, Indonesia, and surrounding Southeast Asia. It has been used for centuries to support health and vitality. [1] *†
Why should you buy standardized tongkat ali?
We use a 3rd party test, HPLC, so we have a standardized tongkat ali. This is is one way to ensure you are getting a consistent amount of the acitve ingredient, Eurycomanone, in each bottle in every batch of production. [2] *†
Did you know?
You are probably familiarized with the tongkat ali extract ratios such as 50:1, 100:1 and 200:1. These ratios have been around for a few years and they represent the concentration of the final tongkat ali powder.
However, you can’t rely on them as a marker of potency for two reasons: 1. There is no formal way to verify ratios in a lab test, and 2. The quality of the starting raw material and the extraction process can make a big difference in the potency of the final product. [4] *†
Herbolab: Quality you can TRUST
Herbolab Tongkat Ali is standardized for Eurycomanone content to ensure potency.
Tongkat ali extract contains Eurycomanone, a phytochemical linked to several of tongkat ali benefits. By measuring Eurycomanone, you can have peace of mind that you are getting the real thing. It is not enough to buy a tongkat ali product based on extract ratio alone, as this is not a reliable marker of potency. [3] *†
Each batch of our tongkat ali is tested for Eurycomanone content at the Forest Research Institute of Malaysia (FRIM). Results for each batch are available on demand.
- Eurycomanone have been linked to several of tongkat ali benefits
- Eurycomanone standardization ensures tongkat ali potency
- Results for each batch are always available on demand
How Does Herbolab Standardized Tongkat Ali Capsules Compare to 200:1 Tongkat Ali Supplements?
Tongkat ali usage as a traditional remedy was born in Malaysia. Therefore, it is not surprising that Malaysia is the leading country for tongkat ali usage and the main exporter of tongkat ali products in the world. As eurycomanone has been identified as a reliable marker to determine the presence and potency of tongkat ali preparations, the government of Malaysia has established the MS 2409:2011 regulation, which states that the eurycomanone level for tongkat ali herbal preparation in the market as measured by HPLC should be above 0.8% (typiy in the range of 0.8-1.5%). This regulation applies in addition to other safety measures such as microbial load and heavy metal content. [5] *†
The MS 2409:2011 regulation has a very important implication, Malaysian companies (such as our trusted manufacturer) that sell tongkat ali products must have over 0.8% eurycomanone content to claim that their product contains tongkat ali as well as comply with safe levels of microbiological and heavy metal measures, else they would be breaking the law. [6] *†
At Herbolab we have gone beyond the minimum 0.8% eurycomanone content, we promise a potency of at least 2% eurycomanone for every batch. This promise is not something that a company selling 200:1 tongkat ali can uphold, because they do not know how potent their tongkat ali is or even if their tongkat ali is genuine at all!
Why Stacking?
Synergistic Effect When Stacking the Right Supplements
A stack is group of different nutrients that work together to enhance the intended goal, which can produce a combined effect greater than the sum of each separate effect. In other words, by stacking the right supplements you could achieve a greater effect.
Truly Built Just For You to Reach Your Goals
We do not believe in one-kind-fit-all formulas. You have unique needs and will benefit most from a specific combination of ingredients.
The Right Ingredient, at the Right Dose, no “Proprietary Formulas”
