As its Western name already implies "Long Jack" has traditionally been used as libido booster. As Tongkat Ali or E. Longifolia extract it is yet also an ingredient of "Testosterone Boosters", these days - rightly so? In spite of the fact that you'll probably agree, when I say that the risks of classic (hormonal) testosterone replacement therapy are largely overblown in the never-ending debate about the alleged negative side effect of "The Big T" ( learn more about Testosterone), it would still be nice if there were natural and thus easily accessible alternatives, right?

That being said, we better go back the "tried(!) and proven(?)" stuff. I mean a herb that goes by the name "Long Jack" does already sound way more promising than a "Blood Mary" doesn't it?
