Make sure you get the right testosterone supplement for you.
Check Best ListWe answer some of the most commonly asked questions about Alpha Jym.
This supplement contains a mix of herbs, plant extracts,
amino acids, vitamins, and key minerals that are known to support the natural
production of testosterone in the body.
These are the main ingredients:
Ashwagandha
Root
Damiana
Leaf
Diindolylmethane
Eurycoma
Longifolia
Fenugreek
Quercetin
Looking at this list we can see that, Alpha Jym is a mediocre
choice if you are looking for a testosterone booster. Ashwagandha Root is a
good start, but after that, things start to tail off. It’s also missing, zinc, magnesium
and b and d vitamins, which are all proven to help boost testosterone,
especially in men with deficiencies which is the majority of the US population.
Let's take a closer look at the key ingredient per serving
and how they can benefit your natural testosterone production.
Ashwagandha
Root: An ancient plant extract that has been used in Chinese medicine for
hundreds of years. Ashwagandha root extract is a beneficial herb for good
health and levelling out hormones, and boosting fertility in both men and
women. It’s been reasonably well studied and does make it into most of the
better test boosters.
Damiana
Leaf (500mg): This herbal extract helps to inhibit the process of your
testosterone being turned into estrogen in the body. It can help maintain
higher levels of circulating testosterone in your system for longer. Again,
a pretty reasonable choice in a mid range test booster, but
Diindolylmethane
(DIM): The inclusion of this ingredient is where we have our second major
issue. According to some research, DIM has the potential to raise
testosterone levels. However, there is also evidence that DIM acts as an
androgen antagonist in the body, which goes against testosterone
production. We don't believe there is enough evidence to include this
ingredient and think it needs more long term clinical testing to establish
its effectiveness.
Fenugreek
(500mg): This is a very high dose compared to other testosterone boosters.
Fenugreek is known to support your natural testosterone production. Its
effectiveness slowly builds up after many weeks of use, so including a
high dose in the formulation can be beneficial for building and
maintaining long-term testosterone levels. So, whilst this is useful, it
is a cheaper and less effective stand alone ingredient, and we could
simply add more of the spice to our diets relatively easily.
Overall, Alpha Jym contains a combination of mediocre
bulking ingredients, but at least it’s at a large enough dose that it would be
mildly effective.
We consider Alpha Jym to be a middling-quality testosterone
booster. It’s not one of the best on the market, by a long shot, it’s OK, it
will likely have some positive effect, but isn’t really up to much. If you’re short
on funds for a more premium it’s a better option than not using anything, but
probably a worse option than a mens multivitamin.
The lack of D-Aspartic Acid, vitamins and minerals in the
formulation means it doesn't make it into our top-rated choice of testosterone
boosters..
Reading through plenty of customer reviews, and with an
average rating of 4.5 out of five stars, and considering the volume and the way
that most of the reviews read, we suspect that the majority of those are paid
for. We gave it a try ourselves, but found ourselves swapping back to our
normal test boosters pretty quickly.
That said if you’ve already bought them we advise taking
these capsules with food, especially if you suspect you may be sensitive to any
of the ingredients used in this formulation. Some customers report minor side
effects, including stomach aches or headaches, but these issues could be easily
mitigated by avoiding taking the supplement on an empty stomach.
