Tongkat Ali dosage

Good morning guys;

I’ve just received my order of tongkat ali, it are capsules of 400mg each, 50:1 extract.

The “recommended” dosage I can read on the recipient is 8 capsules per day… as I was expected to take one per day, no more than two, hehehe.

If somebody has some experience with tongkat ali, which dosage have you used and considered effective?

Thanks a lot

It’s different for everyone I believe. Start off at a very small dose and see what works. I’ve had best results taking 200mg of 50:1 2x a day. Your mileage will vary. When experimenting with dosage try to allow yourself 3 days to see how it’s working. If not enough then up the dosage.

Hi there,

I have been using Tonkat Ali extract 1:50 4g/day since September over 2months now), it is very bitter, it give nausea if you don’t eat immediately afterwards, it makes you shit substantially, I must have lost a couple of kgs(which is fine), but I have noticed no difference what soever in either function or physionomy, I’ll certainly finish what I have left, but by end December if I see no results, I won’t order it again, it seems to be a load of bollox up to now.

Has anyone had a different experience?

I take 3 per day, one with each meal. 20 days on and 10 days off. I think it helps my libido, but it is a subtle effect.

My experience wasn’t worth my re-ordering. As gprent, maybe a “subtle” effect.

MacLupo, you say you lost of couple of kgs while taking Tongkat Ali. Did you change your diet or exercise pattern during that time?

I’m taking 1’2 g per day (3 capsules) and I’ve also suppressed finasteride, and I’m experiencing quite good effects, probably due the combination “TA / no FS”. In the early mornings I wake up with my dick hard as a rock, and I really don’t remember when was the last time it happened. Also feel more aggressiveness and more sexual desire. I don’t know if this would happen only with TA.

That’s TA allright I’d say. Stopping the Finasteride no doubt contibutes though. Remember to cycle Tongkat Ali, I’d recommend an on-off cycle, you’ll have to see what works for you. I usually do a 4 days on, 3 off but your mileage may vary.

I’m doing 5/2 cycle because I’m training from monday till friday, and it helps me to get some energy.
