The makers of The Alpha Tonic cite research from Tel Aviv University and other major institutions to support the ingredients in The Alpha Tonic. The company also cites studies published in peer-reviewed medical journals like Frontiers in Endocrinology, the Journal of Men’s Health, and the European Journal of Clinical Nutrition, among others.
First, it’s true male testosterone levels seem to be declining, even when controlling for age. One recent study suggested setting a lower limit for normal testosterone levels because testosterone levels had dropped. Researchers found that increasing rates of late-onset hypogonadism (LOH) in men led to lower testosterone levels worldwide.
Studies also show declining testosterone isn’t an inevitable part of aging for men. Yes, male testosterone levels tend to fall over the years. However, one study found after age 40, testosterone levels tend to fluctuate instead of declining steadily. That study also found the average man reaches their male testosterone peak at age 19 before falling to age 40. Beyond age 40, however, diet and lifestyle habits impact testosterone levels more than age, and men over 40 can support higher testosterone levels regardless of age.
The Alpha Tonic was designed to promote higher testosterone levels in men using natural ingredients without the side effects of anabolic steroids. Here is some of the science behind the elements in The Alpha Tonic:
Vitamin D has a proven connection to male testosterone. A 2011 study found a significant increase in testosterone levels in a group of 200 men after taking a vitamin D supplement, compared to a placebo. If you’re not getting sufficient vitamin D through diet or sunlight, a vitamin D supplement could help support normal testosterone levels.
Zinc is another proven ingredient in The Alpha Tonic. Like vitamin D deficiency, zinc deficiency is linked to low testosterone levels. In one study, researchers gave a zinc supplement to a group of 40 men between 20 and 80. Over a 3 to 6-month period, men in the zinc group significantly increased testosterone compared to men taking a placebo.
The Alpha Tonic also contains plants and herbs – like maca and fenugreek. A recent study found men increased libido after taking 1,500 to 3,000mg of maca daily, self-reporting significantly higher rates of sexual desire (with no measurable increase in testosterone). Another study found taking fenugreek over eight weeks increased muscle anabolism, androgenic hormones, and body fat balance, suggesting fenugreek can increase testosterone.
Overall, The Alpha Tonic features a blend of proven ingredients linked to testosterone, male vitality, libido, and overall wellness. Taking one scoop of The Alpha Tonic daily gives your body a range of nutrients to help produce testosterone and synthesize other molecules linked to libido and sexual wellness.
