It has been suggested that high amounts of total serum testosterone levels correlate with higher lean body mass, lowered fat mass, greater muscle strength, and faster recovery. These suggestions drive athletes and body builders to find ways to raise their testosterone levels. Many athletes and bodybuilders look to alternative methods to anabolic steroids in order increase their testosterone levels without legal repercussions or physiological side effects. Herbs and other plant extracts have been introduced as a possible source to naturally boost testosterone levels. Research supporting the use of herbs and plant extracts has been shown to be equivocal. However, evidence in studies with hypogonadal men suggests that longjack root may naturally boost testosterone levels.
