USN has launched two products that can boost your testosterone naturally—Anabolic Turk Test 1200 and Tongkat Ali. But how does it work, and can these products be used in conjunction?

What is turkesterone?

Turkesterone is a concentrated form of a type of ecdysteroid—a hormonal steroid that is naturally found in plants. Due to their abilities to induce growth, ecdysteroids are often compared to testosterone.

Turkesterone has anabolic (muscle building) and adaptogenic (helps your body respond to stress, anxiety, fatigue, and overall wellbeing) effects, which benefit muscle growth and performance. It is essential to note that natural turkesterone sources from plants pose little risk. 

Anabolic Turk Test 1200 is USN’s 1200 mg turkesterone extract.

The benefits of turkesterone

• Turkesterone can increase muscle mass and muscle-to-fat ratio by lowering lipid absorption and supporting muscle synthesis in several ways, including increasing protein synthesis and leucine uptake in muscle cells.
• This natural form of testosterone can enhance muscle and exercise performance by possibly increasing adenosine triphosphate (ATP) production, which powers the muscle.
• Turkesterone can accelerate recovery by assisting with repairing muscle fibres after exercise and increasing glycogen concentrations in the muscle.
• It has stress-fighting effects by assisting with neurotransmitter production and gut health, which helps promote a healthy gut-brain connection.

The significance of the 10% extract used in USN Anabolic Test Turk 1200

It is critical to mention that not all turkesterone supplements are created equal. Studies report that for the best results, the ideal dosage is 500–1000 mg taken for 8–12 weeks.

While other products that use the 2% turkesterone extract are available, it is essential to note that the 10% extract is the superior ingredient as it yields five times more turkesterone than the 2% per 100 g. This significantly increases the potency of the active ingredient in the product.

What is Tongkat Ali?

Tongkat Ali (Eurycoma longifolia) is an extract from a shrubby tree found in Southeast Asia. Also known as Long Jack, Malaysian Ginseng, and Ali’s Umbrella, the roots, bark, and fruits are used to produce a variety of herbal medicines and substances.

The plant is regarded as an adaptogen (helps your body respond to stress, anxiety, fatigue and overall wellbeing). Tongkat Ali is also highly regarded in the training and exercise community as it has been shown to effectively increase strength and energy while also increasing appetite and libido.

The benefits of Tongkat Ali 

• Tongkat Ali enhances exercise capabilities and promotes the growth of muscle tissue.
• Tongkat Ali's effectiveness is attributed to the presence of quassinoids, such as eurycomaoside, eurycolactone, and eurycomanone. These compounds have the potential to enhance energy utilisation, alleviate fatigue, and enhance overall endurance.
• Increased testosterone levels in males will also lead to reduced body fat, accelerated recovery and increased muscle mass.

Can you use Anabolic Turk Test 1200 and Tongkat Ali together?

USN’s Anabolic Turk Test 1200 and Tongkat Ali can be used simultaneously. Tongkat Ali’s ability to increase testosterone levels can work with turkesterone’s anabolic effects, encouraging muscle growth and overall wellbeing. The ingredients in these testosterone enhancement supplements are also associated with faster muscle recovery after intense exercise, making it possible to train more frequently and intensely.

It is, however, essential to take these supplements at the recommended daily dosage of between 200 mg and 400 mg a day.
