Fadogia Agrestis is a short bush plant native mainly to Nigeria, but also to western Africa as far north as Ghana and east to Sudan (3). Traditionally, it is used there primarily for its apparent antipyretic properties. However, it is also used as an aphrodisiac herb and for the treatment of erectile dysfunction (4). According to scientific studies, the potency-enhancing aspect may come from a testosterone increase that may accompany the ingestion of Fadogia Agrestis. Researchers came to this conclusion based on a series of studies conducted at the Medicinal Plants Research Laboratory in Nigeria (5). These studies examined the effect of the plant on mammals and found a significant increase in testosterone levels (5,6).

Increased testosterone levels come with a whole host of potential benefits. It is probably the best known androgenic hormone and is essential for a variety of processes in the human body. Testosterone has a stimulatory effect on hair follicles, which can lead to the production of longer, thicker and more pigmented hair (7). However, it also helps to support bone formation. During puberty, increasing testosterone concentrations correlate with increased bone growth. This is because higher testosterone levels lead to increased calcium storage in bone and stimulation of osteoblasts, which are responsible for bone formation (8). In athletes, most notably of course bodybuilders, testosterone is best known for its anabolic effects (9). It promotes the hypertrophy of muscle fibers and stimulates the proliferation of satellite cells in the muscles (10). Moreover, testosterone promotes the formation of pluripotent stem cells that can form satellite cells and myoblasts, and inhibits the differentiation of adipocytes (11). High testosterone levels also promote the formation of erythrocytes and their iron uptake, which can lead to an increase in muscle mass and hemoglobin levels, thus enhancing physical performance in sports (12). However, the influence of testosterone does not stop at the physical level; it also has a crucial effect on the psyche. Fluctuations in testosterone levels could, among other things, lead to a decrease in mental performance and impair well-being in subjects of one study (13). A widespread consequence of too low testosterone levels is also a decrease in libido, which has also been demonstrated in the study setting (14).

If one considers all these influences of testosterone, one quickly becomes aware of why, many active ingredients from traditional medicine can be scientifically proven to have a direct or indirect influence on testosterone levels. Many medicinal plants should increase the well-being or help with aspects that can be associated with a low testosterone level in retrospect (14,15,16). More and more studies are being published that allow a clearer picture of the mode of action of various ingredients that have been used by humans for thousands of years. Fadogia Agrestis is one of these active ingredients and GN - Laboratories provides it to you in its purest form. With just one capsule a day, you can get all the effects of the African bush herb. Fadogia Agrestis from GN Laboratories - because in the end only results count.
