Testosterone everyone has it, but gender assigned at birth men have quite a higher level of it in their systems. It is responsible for deeper voices, facial hair, but most importantly to our endeavor, muscle building. Often today a lot of people throw around phrases like ‘too much’ or ‘too little.’ Most often these phrases are without an explanation of what should be an appropriate amount. That is because men are expected to measure between three hundred and one thousand nanograms per deciliter. Only a medical professional can diagnose what ‘low’ and ‘high’ truly mean.
However, as we get older our bodies change. Men will start to see a decline in testosterone production. Gaining weight, lower energy, hair loss, and less interest in sexual activity are all signs that the decline has begun. Speaking in broad strokes this is expected, and can begin as early as man’s thirties. Staying active and making dietary changes can help. You may still feel like you need a little more jack in the hammer, and Redcon1 is here to help.
Boomstick is comprised of nine ingredients that range from common sense to ancient medicine. Nine ingredients, nine capsules ingested daily, and you might be getting back on track to reclaiming some of the fire of your younger days. It all starts with some D, Vitamin D.
Vitamin D deficiency is a common issue here in the United States, more and more of my friends, family, and coworkers come home from a trip to the doctors telling me how they have been told to start taking vitamin D daily. Its no secret the issues that low vitamin D can spell for you, but did you know it can be robbing you of your manhood as well?
Deficiency in vitamin D is combated by Boom Stick with four hundred percent of your daily required dosage. Excess vitamin D is something to be concerned with so make sure you are comparing what you are taking with your doctor’s recommendations.
Magnesium and Zinc are the next ingredients to work a one two punch of low levels of testosterone. A study almost a decade old showed that in as little as four weeks the two minerals could jump start levels in men who were sedentary. Taking just a month has been shown to improve even more significantly among men who are active as well!
Now we come to the building blocks of protein, amino acids. Specific to Boom Stick is D Aspartic acid. Aspartic acid in its natural form in the body is L Aspartic Acid, but the mirror image D Aspartic does not play a role in protein synthesis. Instead it tells the brain to produce chemicals, specifically testosterone. Sounding the alarm to remind the factory of that product it maybe decided wasn’t a hot seller anymore is back in fashion.
Stress is a serious issue when it comes to testosterone production. A healthy nervous system can help to better manage stress. That brings us to Ashwagandha Root, or Indian Ginseng. By maintaining stress levels they body can better focus on the task at hand, producing that man making testosterone.
Following up with Tribulus Terrest, a spiny plant from the Mediterranean. This has been used for years for enhancing circulation. Some studies have shown that it may also limit angina symptoms. There is limited research done on this the majority shows that it could be harmful if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, two things that you probably wouldn’t be doing if on testosterone support.
Fenugreek Seed Extract, not to be confused with the Ferengi race from Star Trek, slows the absorption of sugar! It has also been shown to stimulate insulin! For further reading on the effects of carbohydrates in weightlifting check out our article on Cluster Bomb!
Diindolymenthane. One of my favorite ingredients. It does not increase testosterone levels in your body, instead it supports them. Primarily it will take effect on estrogen metabolism to support free testosterone.
Rounding out the pack is Stinging Nettle Extract. This plant has been used for years for the treatment of Diabetes, but also shows to help reduce inflammation. Less inflammation is less irritation, and getting you back to feeling like your younger self again!
Overall Boom Stick is a safe and effective tool for guys who are starting to feel that slump. As with any supplement, check with your doctor before you begin a regiment!
