Long Jack Root, also known as Tongkat Ali, is an herbal supplement that comes from the roots of the green shrub tree Eurycoma longifolia, which is native to Southeast Asia. It has been suggested to improve low testosterone, male fertility, anxiety, athletic performance, and muscle mass.

Here are some benefits of Long Jack Root:
  • Boosts testosterone levels: Long Jack Root may boost low testosterone levels in men.
  • Improves sexual desire: Taking Long Jack Root by mouth seems to improve sexual desire.
  • Reduces stress and anxiety: Long Jack Root supplement is helpful in easing stress by lowering stress hormones, reducing anxiety, and uplifting mood.
  • Enhances muscle mass and strength gains: Long Jack Root extract is able to enhance muscle mass and strength gains while accelerating fat loss in healthy individuals.

The recommended dosage of Long Jack Root varies depending on the intended use. For testosterone boosting, the standard dosage is 100–600 mg/day. For sexual health and libido, a daily dose of 200–400 mg seems to be effective. It’s unclear whether taking the supplements over longer periods is beneficial and safe.

Long Jack Root is generally considered safe when taken in recommended doses. However, some people may experience side effects such as insomnia, restlessness, and increased heart rate. Additionally, keep in mind that some supplements may be contaminated with mercury. Plus, they’re not well regulated and may contain more or less Long Jack Root than listed on the label. Look for a reputable brand that has been tested by a third party.

There are several case studies regarding the benefits of Long Jack Root. A study found that supplementation of water-soluble extracts of Long Jack Root at a dosage of 100 mg/day for 5 weeks increased fat-free mass. Another study found that Long Jack Root extract supplementation in moderately stressed subjects improved psychological vigor.
