Hello I am afraid to use again tongat ali bcz of insomnia since I barely sleep. Can I know how many hours where you sleeping while using the supplements?
I see a difference, you look swollen...I'm assuming your grapes are now Grapefruits.
Even those in porn and not in porn, don't need T, they are better off eating food and perhaps BCAA.
Love your soul and lack of apathic behavior, sympathic speedy spontaniously and sharp presentations! You and Jeremy ethier the best!
Highlights
Increased testosterone levels by 39.5% (838 ng/dL) after 30 days.
Free testosterone increased by 33% (12 ng/dL), SHBG increased by 6% (35).
Gained 5 pounds of lean mass and improved bone density.
Experienced elevated energy, motivation, and focus.
Noticed subtle strength gains and improved ability to stay focused.
Faced potential side effects like irritability and insomnia.
Considered cycling on and off the supplements for long-term use.
thanks for summarizing!
Thanks for this! 👍🏻
It also contains high levels of mercury. Have fun getting stronger and dumber simultaneously.

A good structured video. Keep going 🙏🏻

Thank you for this honest, unbiased, researched, and data pumped vid! Clear, concise, and super helpful! :)
Finally an authentic video how you want it to be, thanks man
I've been taking this for about 2 months, and I saw an increase as well. But how I felt was better. That has been the best.
Its important to comment that it really only works when your diet and exercise are already on point.
Great video!
what happened when you stopped?
or what happend when you dont take any magic pills but just look at your diet and exercise?! :)
May the grace of YESHUA be wtih all
Nah, that’s just because your diet and exercise make you feel good and naturally promote good hormonal usage, the drug is most likely a placebo or very minor. Remember, all it is doing (at best) is increasing your testosterone levels from a normal level to a slightly higher, but still within normal, level. Research is pretty clear that such small fluctuations within the normal range are not very impactful if impactful at all. To see the actual effects of increased testosterone, you need to be far outside of the normal range. This is why proper TRT treatment on someone with low testosterone doesn’t suddenly turn them into a muscle bound beast. To see muscle effects, you need to abuse the treatment.
@@TheHeadincharge Nicely said. I think health, from a holistic standpoint, should be the primary goal. Everything else will eventually follow that. Diet, stress management, proper sleep, proper amount and kind of exercise combined will all do more for optimal hormone levels than an herbal supplement.
I do think that some supplements can help to boost a bit, but the above factors are far more important as a toto and especially in combo.
@@TheHeadincharge i just tested at 450 today during a TRT consultation and the side effects scared me right out of the building suppressing natural testosterone with ester is not a good idea, hair loss, huge cysts, roid rage, shrunken tiny baby nuts, there is forever side effects and there is a list of 20 + temp side effects ? no thanks.
Dude - this is such such such a great video. Excellent study and super well disclosed throughout that you didn't know side effects etc so people could take it or leave it. Just fantastic content man - you are killing it
Thank you so much! Means a lot! Any other experiments that you want to see me run?
@@ShervinShares haha well you seem to be covering the spectrum man - excellent diverse content too. I'll think more about it though!
I've stacked Fadogia and Tongkat, stopped taking the Fadogia as it made my nuts ache. Fadogia also caused this weird sensitivity in my hamstring, such that any movement that stretched the hamstring at all would cause pain and discomfort. Thought it was a coincidence but I confirmed it after cycling on and off it 3 separate times. Tongkat works more like an energy booster for me, but if you stay on it long term it loses it's "spark" so to speak, the best way to use it is only use it on lift days, and don't use it at all during deload weeks. Tongkat always felt like a stimulant to me.
Nootropics Depot has the strongest Tongkat Ali on the market. Need to give it a try along with their Cistanche Tubulosa. Cistanche is much safer than Fadogia as no one really knows how fadogia works or what specific compounds are causing positive or negative effects. Or you can check out their In Search Of Insight podcast on testosterone and they go over their concerns with Fadogia.
interesting I also been getting some soreness in my hamstrings so far been taking it for 2 days will be my 3rd this morning, could be because I'm peaking too early with my strength training, might be that actually because my bench dropped quite a lot today from last week.
Great video and great documentary evidence. Thanks, man!
Interesting results, thanks for doing this ShervinShares
Never stop making the videos, bro. Your videos and content are really helpful. ❤

Quality video, very informative and well made. Thank you
Very good video. Short and right to the point.
I've been taking Tongkat Ali, and fadogia agrestis as a combo as suggested by Huberman for six or so months, and I'd definitely say motivation and energy have improved. But it comes in waves. No negative side effects that I've felt or seen...so far. Great video bud.
Oh wow interesting! Have you cycled on and off at all? Or straight 6 months?

Hilarious, honest and informative. I like your style.
Please take your testosterone again in a month or two and let us know how far/fast it dropped during that time. Very interested to see if taking these supplements on an interval basis might be optimal.
Your bound to fuck up something in the long run taking stuff like this. If you dont need it, dont take it

Interesting video, thanks for sharing! I've been taking Tongkat Ali along with Ashwaganda for the last month and a half and Ive just signed up for a blood test in a couple of days. Kinda tired from having to swallow so many pills every day, but i do feel better (maybe it's placebo, who knows).
Hello danny did it increase your testosterone?
Really interesting video. It would be nice to see a follow up, perhaps after 1-3 months off those herbs, to see if you numbers remain the same or if they return to pre-test baseline. Thank you.
Great question! I’ll keep testing and make an update in a future video

Great Video, this will definitely help people who are researching these supplements and those weighing the decision to take them.
Just stumbled upon your content dude. Funny and to the point. Keep it up. You got a new subscriber
Nice video nice informative results. What time of day did you do your blood testing. Is there a difference in our natural testosterone levels when you 1st wake up compared to when you go to sleep or mid day. How do you feel now? Do you still feel the positive results after stopping the pills. I wonder how this would work with someone that is already on TRT?
Yes, testosterone levels can fluctuate up to 30 or 40% through the day for a fully mature man. It is also of course impacted by your diet, stress levels, sleep, and a natural hormone cycle. Without controlling for these things, these tests are essentially meaningless unfortunately.
What really would be interesting to know is what your levels do 30 days after you stopped. Does it go lower than it was before, stay the same, or does it stays higher for longer time. When you know that you would be able to know how long you would need to pause. disclaimer im not a docter just curious
Good info dude!
Great video mate
Have to say Shervin, I found your channel tonight and I think I've binge watched a good bit of your content. The production value is amazing and the consistency in editing is incredibly appealing. Thanks for making the content you do as it can lead to some insightful inner dialogue. In particular your "Wasted 20's" video really spoke to me as someone who just passed into 26 and hasn't really found a calling that works for me. I'm quite good at everything I tend to do, but the thought of strapping myself into a particular field of work scares me for some reason. The commitment isn't the issue, rather the long term enjoyment. Regardless, some of the things you said in that video spoke to me and helped me get a bit closer to really settling on a path. Thank you brother :)
nice! very curious if you isolated for circadian variables.. did you take your blood tests while fasted and first thing in the morning or were they not at the same times? if not, testosterone fluctuates based on time of day, activity, food intake etc. etc.
This. Also I’ve been told to not do legs a few days before so that can be a factor also. Really important to make sure you write down exactly what you did when you did your test so you do exactly that for your next test.
Man this video was great. I’m definitely going to try these supplements out. Thanks for the video. Good stuff.
You are funny, interesting and gave a lot of info. Thanks man keep it up.
Out of curiosity, did you do the bloodwork at the same time each day, controlling for variables such as fasted/not fasted, etc? That would really give the tests more validity.
still there is the lean mass. which is kinda impressive in 30 days
*reliability
@@franzhulk2947 You can go do a dexa scan, do nothing for a month, come in for another scan and get similar results in either direction lmao
Are you still taking both products? If so, an update would be welcome some months down the line, to see if the numbers stay high or if the body adapts and downregulates its testosterone production.
The problem with taking both products at the same time for your experiment, though, is that all the benefits may come from just _one_ of the two products, making taking both a waste of money and an unnecessary health risk.😕
Your vid on zone 2 cardio popped up on my feed, which was a very good video, and then linked at the end to this which I felt was worth a subscription 😂
Ty for doing this and the seemless transition between the vids 👊😎
You truly respect your parents. If so, very good and keep growing !
😂
The concerning was was a rise in triglycerides,..but also the drop in cortisol is awesome! So did your cortisol drop and your testosterone soar because you slept better and went to the gym or because of the supplements? Maybe another 30 days of those habits and no supplements? Again, GREAT video and great content as well. 😊
Not concerning at all. Higher androgen levels make lipids worse.
This doesen't rise your triglycerides
I took my bloodwork 3 times over 2 months.
baseline: 19 nmol/L / 547 ng/dL
month 1 (Tongkat Ali): 24 / 692
month 2 (Tongkat Ali + Fedogia A.): 16 / 461
So T.A increased my T, but F.A lowered it!
This was a year ago and I distinctly remember feeling worse the 2nd month.
Me and F.A just doesn't agree with each other.
I did a test once after a meal and midday, it was at 19nmol/L then I did it fasted early in the morning, it was 22.5nmol/L. Can a meal and late test really make a difference?
Great video!! Subbed
Love your vlogs. Drew from Scotland 🏴
Hey buddy seriously great work! Im a doctor and i love your stuff! I noticed your AST on your blood work @9:08 almost doubled (from 28 to 47) and normal range for AST based on my experience tops out at about 40, nothing to worry about 47 is not bad at all but because it doubled and your a young healthy man and these supplements have been known to increase liver enzymes I would keep an eye on it! All the best.
what could be the negative side effects of a high AST?
I looked at his results. AST/ALT increased concurrently. Let's not forget, he is also exercising regularly, which might have been a factor that contributed to AST rise, but given that ALT has also increased, I agree with your recommendation to keep an eye. For people who wonder. It may be a sign on liver inflammation. Say he continues to take...will this trend follow/worsen. Personally, I would stay away.
@@adm7282 it may be a sign of liver inflammation. Again nothing major at this level, but we are talking about a possible trend comparing his baseline to a month later. Also, may not be supplement related at all. AST is also found in skeletal muscle and other tissues thus can be elevated post heavy workout.
is kingmaker supplement a steroid?
Nice work buddy
Definitely got irritability from tongkat+fadogia+boron. Also sometimes messed up my stomach. I did a baseline test before hand with no variables changed besides the pills and I had a huge drop in free test.
Going to try again with different sourcing soon.
I am very optimized from a health perspective and my baseline was just under 800 total and 21 free at 33 yrs old.
Cool to see someone actually take a proper baseline. So many Reddit people add in other things or start weight training for the first time or something.
You got some amazing test levels already
I tried it, it did absolutely nothing. Completely useless supplement imho
@@jonconnelly483 Surprised it worked so well for Shervin, it seems like it's hit and miss for people. He's the first i've seen it work for someone who already had great levels. I am excited to try it one more time just to see if my results were a fluke and tied to other factors. Waiting until i'm done losing weight from marathon training though.
@@jonconnelly483 I also feel like unless you are getting like a 200-300 T bump along with a similar bump in Free T, that it wouldnt' be worth it if you are getting any of the sides.
Mate. Just f*cking stop. Natty test boosters DO NOT WORK. You are wasting your time and your money.

Thank you so much 😀
Love your videos man... Im happy i discovered your channel because of Andrew huberman routine videos❤️
Awesome! Thank you! What kind of video should I make next??
These results are insane. How much were you training over the 30 days?
bro, not even trenbolone will give you results in 30 days, trust me, i'm on it right now.

I hope your iPhone is working 💪
Great video! Do you know if it's better to take at night or morning?
Great video man. I’ve taken tongut Ali. But not fadocia. I want to try both like you did now.
That’s interesting… I’d like to hear more about how your dieting, workload, and sleep changed, as well as any other changes in your lifestyle that might’ve affected your testosterone levels. I mean a 30% increase from a pill is huge, if true

@@rahmannanees Can't speak for other folks. I took it every other day, and I completely skipped weekends. But I didn't notice that much of a difference, except an increase in hair loss, but I think that was more due to creatine overall.

What was the update on your balls growth?
First time seeing your stuff. I liked and subscribed.
Mate you should get another blood test done to see how long it takes for your test level to return to what it was, that'd be interesting to see if it last longer or back to normal in like a couple of days 😅
I want to! So expensive tho - plan to do one few months later so we’ll see
for my experience, they go below the normal range e stays there for a few weeks.
The first time I tried turkesterone which I don't use now I also got an immediate 10kg extra on my pulldowns. But it seemed to taper off so I stopped.
Great video!! I hope you post back here in a couple of months to let us know how you have changed. Please do that! It's important to know.
Subscribed. Great Content. 👍
I really appreciate the content in your videos. I haven’t done the research fully yet but curious what these supplements might do for female gains or if even recommended.
hmmm interesting! now sure how these hormone supplements would impact females
@@ShervinShares I did natural pro female bb for 10 years. Couldn’t use any enhancements. In my 40s now and kind of curious how these would impact current hormone levels with pre menopause. Be nice to see my lifts increase and bike efforts as well.
@ShervinShares did banana or grapes change at all?
remember folks always go to your dedicated physician and ask about testosterone supplements/injections.... as every body is individual in reaction to it, there can be all sorts of dangerous side effects, like infertility, high blood pressure, heart attack, stroke, liver disease etc. Always, ALWAYS be safe first.
Good content bro. Keep it up man, way to make people live a healthier lifestyle
thank you Cristhian! won't stop!
Thank you for a very well documented run.
I wonder if there is any metabolic lag after the herbs are stopped? Did your testosterone levels go back to the baseline numbers? Or did they drop below those numbers for a time. And if so did you then lose the gains you made on the herbs? It would be interesting to understand the benefits and consequences. Thanks, excellent video.
i would love to know this too its the whole reason not to take them if they have negative rebound, we need someone to show blood work 1 week and 1 month after stopping
I was thinking exactly the same and would love to see the results of another blood test after you stopped. How about your sleep, has it improved since you stopped taking them? Great video btw, very interesting.
ive been taking ashwagonda and i for sure notice the diffrence I stopped for a month or two and didn't lose any gains. I just didn't feel as good working out, or as horny.
@zachemorgan lucky you, for me no difference
I've tried Ashwaganda, Tongat Ali, Fadogia Agrestis, Red Ginseng.. and a few other testosterone supplements that I don't remember the name of, for at least a month each, and all of them had a negative rebound. Even the ones that didn't have very noticeable effects on me resulted in some degree of lethargy for a while after I stopped taking them.
The Fadogia and Tongat Ali combo completely killed my sex drive for at least a week after I stopped. I can't confirm whether or not it's true, but I've definitely heard more than once that supplements related to boosting testosterone or Melatonin all have negative rebounds. This doesn't apply to all types of supplements, but it seems to be common for the ones that promote sleep and testosterone increases in particular.
Really enjoying your videos. The increase you saw may not be sustainable. The body will usually adjust down its own production to mitigate the influence of the supplement. That takes a while. Furthermore, usually there is also a rebound, when you remove the supplement, a severe drop will result, before, over time, returning to normal levels.
There is no way that a 35% boost in testosterone levels is responsible for his muscle mass increase when both of his levels were within the normal range. You need to be far outside of the normal range to see such significant effects due to the extra testosterone.
All of this IS the body's 'own production' as you put it, he is not introducing any exogenous androgens.
Great Job bro...💪
Finally a REAL GUY with REAL reviews good job thanks
curious - did you track your DHT levels before and after? Did you notice any changes in your hair? extra shedding or fall perhaps? thanks for the video btw!
Do you think this could cause hair loss?
This is an important question because some substances simply increase T by inhibiting its conversion to DHT (which would probably lower libido).
Hi! I’m particularly interested in your expierence after you stopped taking the two herbs. Does it give a crash? Going up is always nice, but if the comedown is nasty, it may be better not to start with them in the first place
There is absolutely no calm down in no side effects from these 2. As I have taken them for years on it off. With no side effects, accept the gains.... I will add that. I take it for about one month duration on and then 1 month off.
Personally, I took it for 6 months. Started to have terrible joint pain so I stopped. Once I stopped I felt like complete crap for about 3 months.
@@noopklu I got joint pain which I think is from Tongkat. But I think it’s because I didn’t cycle it enough . It lowers estrogen which can cause osteoporosis
Great Video as always Shervin! Keep up doing your work 😈
Thank you Patrick!!!
GOOD VIDEO ! THANK YOU FROM GERMANY !
FYI,Fadogia agrestis is similar to the luthenizing hormone so taking it will increase the signal for the testes to produce more testosterone
Tongkat ali releases more free testosterone from shbg so its gonna increase the usable testosterone for the body (only 2% of the total testosterone produced by the body is useable for muscle growth as most is binded by the shbg's)
Ps. What was your dht levels?....did it increase, stayed the same because usually excess test is converted to dht by the body... *also after stopping taking both the herbs did the test levels stay at 800 or did it decrease to baseline levels? Also how long were you able to hold on to that lean muscle mass after you stopped?
Without a doubt, exposure to 30% more androgens would have a significant effect on body composition and strength over an extended period. Though I'd have liked to have seen a few blood tests done at either end of the study to rule out anomalies.
don't get to excited it isn't that significant. the discipline and diet is most important over time, not these pills.
The tradeoff of constantly taking these pills for a supposedly 30% increase of T isn't too appealing for me. Not to say we are not even sure that after some time the body gets used to it and the T gets back to baseline (as in other marketed testosterone supplements).
Hey Shervin, can you please make a video about your food habits, also what you eat for workout gains?:)
Thanks + i love your content dude. :)
Thanks for a great video
It would be interesting to see your testosterone level 20 days after stopped taking them. Have they plummeted below your 600 mark?
Thanks Shervin for the video and the analytics proof. I've had tongkat ali a few times years ago and it does work. When i am stuck at loosing fat and i have this stuff I begin to lose fat and gain lean muscle at the same time. I don't take it more frequenty because where i live (in Spain) is not a common supplement, you have to buy it from other countries, pay taxes, whait for a long delibery and getting the risk of being scammed. Once i bought one from ebay and I swear the pills were full of sawdust. It is very easy to make sure the product is legit because it tastes like hell (extremely bitter).
Did you notice any side effects and how long did you take it?
@@Insp.CountMortisWinshipKlaw my 🍆were on fire 🤣🙈🙈no bad sides, at least in my case. I've usually take it for 6 or 8 weeks
Took them for 6 months, and saw no increase in test, tho my SHBG went down about 30%. But noticed no change in mood or drive or libido what so ever. Great video.
Such small changes in testosterone are not going to be noticeably impactful. If you’re already within the normal range, these supplements aren’t taking you out of that range. Even though 35% seems like a lot, our body already fluctuates by that amount daily for a lot of men and still puts you within the normal, typical range. To see actionable effects of any testosterone booster, you either need to have low testosterone or increase your normal amount by multiple times. Guys who abuse TRT are using up to 50+ times the natural levels.
@@TheHeadincharge agree! That's why measured my test with bloodwork to be sure!
wow awesome video🎉
Interesting video! Herbs can be as potent as chemicals - nature holds a lot potent plants and roots - and what not.
It was an impressive effect for 30 days. An interesting perspective would be to learn if the effect is while supplementing or if the natural production of testosterone would remain higher, scale back to “normal” or decrease over time.
Thanks again!
"if the natural production of testosterone would remain higher"
That would be best.
Herbs are chemicals. Everything is chemicals. Do you mean natural vs. synthetic?
@@Adaephonable I was thinking herbs are not controlled (e.g. by the FDA) vs other drugs.
I’m a little over a week into this same experiment and I think it might be giving me some gastrointestinal issues. Almost feel like I have a minor flu. Could be unrelated but curious if others experience something similar.
All supplements, herbs, and drugs can cause gastrointestinal issues. A week is a short time though. If you are still experiencing this after a month or two, I would say stop taking it. Sometimes it takes time for your system to adjust to new supplements.
any updates? I got diarrhea from taking 2nd day right now
Gr8 video, I think tongkat ali is the safer option rn?
Great video sir. Your experience with these supplements mirrored mine. I would like to know what supplement you have taken that increased your libido and sex drive significantly. Thanks.
Let us know if the gains in focus and strength drop after you have stopped taking the supplements. Btw one side effect associated with testosterone supplements long term is accelerated organ aging.
uh oh i will need to measure my organ aging then. i've stopped and the subtle boost is gone, but the benefit was so much it's not a big difference
I took TRT 75ml a week and my free testosterone went from 6.9 to 51 within 6 months! I lowered my dose to 50 ml and now it is 32. My total testosterone level is around 1500.
Man that’s incredible, so how do you feel? Any negatives?
Hair loss?

first video I saw - instant subscribe hit
I literally wanted to see someone try this.. here's to help cover some of those expenses!
Dan you're amazing!! TY SO MUCH. WOW I'm honored. What do you want to see me try next for a video??
@@ShervinShares You deserve it! I love the videos you make, no matter what topic you cover.. Some other ideas for videos would be different protocols from Huberman to try or maybe even some of Bryan Johnson's Blueprint.. although Bryan's are extreme! You're the man Shervin! Keep up the great work brother!
I use Sigma from Gorilla Mind to get those ingredients and effects for myself - they have a cycle protocol on the bottle, so each one lasts like 3 1/2 months, making the price pretty great. I was paying for them separately before and it was far more expensive.
interesting, I'll have to check it out!
sigma says "sold out"
I got tongkat and fadogia 200 pills each for $5

Watching this video on silent with subs because my kid is sleeping next to me. 1st video i ever saw of you, susbcribed 😊
Great stuff bro. Very cool channel.
Thank you!!!
I started Tongkat Ali, Creatine and Ecdysterone not long ago. Within a week I was doing lat pull downs 15kg higher. Not sure if it was one or all but it's all worth a shot. I don't know if I was taking the right amount of tongkat or Ecdysterone as I bought powder and use about half of the scoop that came with them but I can assure something if not all of them are working. More sets were easier also and usually when I would fatigue I was still kicking on. Great stuff .... but not sure if it was one or all of them doing it.
I had similar 15kg increase after week of loading of only creatine, and +10kgs on bench.
Yup all of your effects are basically well known effects of creatine alone.
Wow, would love to see a follow up 30 days off of the two to see what your levels are at.
Great question!! I’ll have to update in future video
@@ShervinShares what an incredible testament to these two supplements though… I’ve had similar results. My total T is currently around 700-going to take 600mg of tongkat daily for 30 days and draw it again.

Shervin, your channel is awesome! I’d love to see a collaboration video with you and Will Tennyson one day. I did see the video where you went to one of his challenges in Central Park. Keep up the good work brother!
Yes me too!! Haha I’m a itty bitty channel so maybe one day when I get close to his level
I think it would've been valuable to see the results after stopping the supplements after a month or two, but keeping the same workout habits.
I can do an update later!
@@ShervinSharesplease do it will be interesting
