What it is
A West African shrub in the Rubiaceae family. The stem extract is sold as a dietary supplement, often as a 10:1 extract.
How it works
Preclinical rat studies report increases in serum testosterone, hypothesized to involve LH-mimetic activity, though mechanisms in humans are not characterized.
Where it's used
Used as a dietary supplement marketed for male hormonal support. Human clinical data are limited; rodent toxicity findings (including testicular damage at higher doses) have been reported in preclinical literature.
FDA-approved use
Regulated as a dietary supplement; human safety data are limited.
Tracking it
Fadogia Agrestis is oral, which makes consistency the whole game — a simple daily check-off with a reminder beats memory every time.
