Please give me the correct way to take tongkat ali and fadogia agrestis

Andrew Huberman has discussed the supplementation of Tongkat Ali, mentioning several key points:

1. Dosage:

   • The recommended dose for Tongkat Ali ranges from 200 milligrams to 600 milligrams per day. Individuals should start with the lowest dose and adjust based on personal effectiveness. The minimal effective dose can vary from person to person, and blood work is the best method to determine the objective effectiveness of the supplement. Some individuals may not experience a noticeable effect, and in those cases, they might try a higher dose, but not exceeding 600 milligrams 1.

2. Timing and Duration:

   • Tongkat Ali is typically taken once a day, and it's often recommended to take it early in the day due to its mildly stimulating effects. There's no need to cycle Tongkat Ali according to Dr. Huberman, but some individuals choose to cycle other supplements for safety. Even an eleven months on, one month off cycle is reasonable. If combined with Fadogia Agrestis, a different cycle of three weeks on, one week off might be recommended 2.

3. Effects:

   • Tongkat Ali has been shown to increase free testosterone by reducing sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG) and can even increase luteinizing hormone. It may have additional effects on other hormones and neural pathways, contributing to its cumulative effects on libido and other parameters associated with increased androgens in males and females 3.

4. Blood Work and Monitoring:

   • Consistently monitoring your hormone levels through blood work is crucial when taking supplements like Tongkat Ali to ensure liver and other health markers remain in check. Subjective experiences are also important to consider when evaluating the effectiveness of a supplement 4.

5. Indonesian Source:

   • When seeking Tongkat Ali, it's recommended to look for sources of Indonesian Tongkat Ali, as this variety is most potent for its effects on libido and may affect hormonal pathways like lowering SHBG and impacting neural pathways 3.

Regarding Fadogia Agrestis, the data returned focused more on Tongkat Ali; to provide comprehensive advice on Fadogia Agrestis, separate research would be essential. Always consult with a healthcare provider before starting any supplement.
