Testofen is a Fenugreek Extract standardized for Fenuside. Testofen works by increasing androgen production for the adrenal cortex. Testofen stimulates the Hypothalamus to produce Corticotropin Releasing Hormone (CRH), which then acts on the Anterior Pituitary Gland causing it to produce Adrenocorticotrophin Hormone (ACTH). ACTH then acts on the Adrenal Cortex causing it to produce androgens, such as Androstenedione, which can be converted to testosterone.

Interestingly, Testofen seems to have testosterone-like properties on its own as it can bind to the androgen receptor. Initial studies done on castrated Swiss Winstar rats have shown Testofen to have similar anabolic and androgenic activity as testosterone. So not only does Testofen work by increasing your natural production of testosterone, it can also activate the androgen receptor itself and produce testosterone-like effects.

Safed Musli

Safed Musli belongs to the plant family Liliaceae. Safed Musli’s tuberous roots have been used in ayurvedic medicine (ancient Hindu science of health and medicine) to treat sexual weakness and impotency for centuries and it is often referred to as a “Sex Tonic” due to its saponin content (Stigmasterol and
Hecogenin) which has been shown to increase sexual desire and semen volume [1]. Some have referred to Safed Musli as an “herbal Viagra” without any side effects.

Other health benefits of Safed Musli include:

• Strengthens the immune system
• Improves arthritis
• Anti-diabetic properties
• Increases physical stamina

   
Rhodiola Rosea

Rhodiola Rosea belongs to the plant family Crassulaceae and has been used for centuries in Russia, Scandinavia, and other eastern countries in traditional medicine. Rhodiola Rosea is known as an adatogen, a substance that increases an organism’s resistance to homeostatic disturbances. Rhodiola Rosea has been shown to:

• Increase physical working capacity [4]
• Improve endurance exercise performance [5]
• Antidepressant, anticancer, cardio-protective, and central nervous system enhancement [6]
• Decrease mental fatigue [7]

Of importance to FenoTest’s main mode of action, in a study done on men suffering from erectile dysfunction, subjects were given 150-200 mg Rhodiola Rosea per day for three months. 26 of the 35 subjects showed improved sexual function and 17-ketosteroids in urine (a sign of increased androgen levels) [2,3]

Bacopa Monnieri

Bacopa Monnieri, an adaptogen like Rhodiola, is also a traditional Ayurvedic medicine used for centuries as an analgesic (pain reliever), memory enhancing, anti-inflammatory, antipyretic (fever reducer), and antiepileptic (prevent convulsions) agent [9]. Recent research shows bacopa monnieri to have anti-stress properties [8] and antioxidant properties [10].
