A Promising Ingredient to Increase Free Testosterone Levels
Curculigo orchioides is a medicinal plant used for diverse medicinal purposes including impotency, aphrodisiac, diuretic, tonic, jaundice, and skin ailments for centuries. We developed a novel extract of Curculigo orchioides (RhizomK®, standardized to 30% curculigosides) and assessed its dose- and time-dependent efficacy (0, 10, 25 and 50 mg/kg body weight p.o.) in male rats.
The present study demonstrates that RhizomK® may serve as a safe and novel, natural free testosterone booster and provide broad spectrum applications in sports nutrition, muscle building and exercise pathophysiology.
