Enhanced Athlete Black Ox is perhaps the most powerful testosterone booster ever developed. Black Ox's comprehensive two-in-one formula uses 11 scientifically proven ingredients in full clinical doses to naturally increase testosterone and regulate estrogen to remove the metabolites that can cause health problems such as water retention and gynecomastia.
What is Black Ox?
With a completely transparent label and a huge 8-capsule serving, the Enhanced Labs formulation team messed around with serious ingredients when they designed Black Ox. The final product is a masterpiece.
TESTOSTERONE BOOSTING BLEND
Akarkara 10:1 extract(Anacyclus pyrethrum) (root) - 1,500 mg
Akarkara (Anacyclus Pyrethrum) is widely used in Ayurvedic medicine for its testosterone-enhancing effects. Clinical studies show that it is a fertility and testosterone enhancing herb with neuro-protective effects on the brain. Use of Akarkara (Anacyclus Pyrethrum) at 50-150 mg/kg for 28 days increased testosterone and luteinising hormone to approximately double the baseline value.
Fenugreek extract (50% steroid saponins) - 1,000 mg
Clinical studies show that fenugreek supplementation increases testosterone levels and enhances libido. Fenugreek is so effective at increasing testosterone levels because it inhibits the enzymes in the body that break down testosterone. Another benefit of taking fenugreek is that it increases insulin sensitivity in the muscles. Dr Wilborn found that when trained athletes consumed 500 mg of fenugreek extract per day for 8 weeks, they saw an improvement in blood sugar levels, an increase in lean muscle mass and strength and a reduction in body fat.
Fadogia Agrestis - 1,000 mg
dogia Agrestis is a Nigerian shrub that has been used in traditional African medicine for thousands of years as a pro-erectile agent. A study conducted for the Asian Journal of Andrology showed that supplementation with Fadogia Agrestis increased testosterone production up to 100%!
Bulbine Natalensis - 500 mg
Bulbine Natalensis is part of the Asphodelaceae plant family; the same plant family as the popular Aloe Vera plant. Bulbine Natalensis increases the signalling of Gonadotropin-Releasing Hormone (GnRH) to stimulate the release of luteinising hormone (LH), which directly increases the natural production of testosterone.
Longjack extract (Eurycoma longifolia) (root) - 300 mg
Tongkat ali, or longjack, comes from the roots of the green shrub Eurycoma longifolia. It is used in traditional medicine in Malaysia, Indonesia, Vietnam and other Asian countries to treat male infertility and erectile dysfunction. A study published in the British Journal of Sports Medicine found that men who used longjack for 5 weeks saw a significant increase in muscle mass, strength and arm circumference.
Mucuna Pruriens extract (20% L-Dopa) - 200 mg
Mucuna pruriens is a legume cultivated in tropical regions of Asia and Africa. The main active ingredient in mucuna pruriens is Levodopa (L-DOPA). A mucuna pruriens extract is much more effective than synthetic L-DOPA because it is released steadily into the body and remains active in the blood much longer than the synthetic version.
Supplementing with mucuna pruriens has several scientifically proven benefits, such as:
- An increase in sperm volume and quality
- Reduced cortisol mirrors
- Activation of androgen receptors
- A boost in dopamine production, increasing focus, alertness and cognitive function.
- Increased testosterone levels
- Increased release of human growth hormone
- Reduced prolactin levels
Dehydroepiandrosterone(DHEA) - 100 mg
Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) is a hormone that occurs naturally in your body and is produced in the adrenal glands. In your body DHEA is converted into male sex hormones such as testosterone. Taking DHEA in supplement form can protect against health problems associated with low hormonal imbalances and / or aging related decrease in hormone levels.
BioPerine Black Pepper Extract - 10 mg
Black pepper contains the active substance piperine. Piperine is used to improve digestion, relieve stomach pain. Where piperine really shines, however, is in its ability to stimulate nutrient absorption. Piperine increases the bioavailability and absorption rate of any supplement you take with it.
ANTI-ESTROGEN BLEND
Calcium (as dicalcium phosphate, calcium d-gluconate) - 138 mg
Calcium D-Glucarate is a substance made by combining calcium and glucaric acid, a chemical compound found naturally in the body and in foods such as oranges, grapefruit, apples and broccoli. Clinical studies show that oral calcium D-glucarate inhibits beta-glucuronidase, enhancing the process of glucuronidation, which detoxifies fat-soluble toxins and excess oestrogen and excretes them from our bodies.
DIM (diindolylmethane) - 100 mg
Diindolylmethane (DIM) is a plant-derived compound found in cruciferous vegetables such as kale, broccoli, Brussels sprouts and cauliflower. DIM balances hormonal activity contributing to improved metabolism and increased free testosterone levels. It is clinically proven that supplementation with DIM:
Free bound testosterone - DIM releases metabolites that prevent testosterone from binding to sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG).
Acts as an aromatase inhibitor - Aromatase is an enzyme that converts testosterone into estrogen. DIM suppresses aromatase activity and protects testosterone from conversion into estrogen.
Regulate hormone levels - DIM regulates the metabolism of 'bad' metabolized estrogens into 'good' 2-hydroxy estrogen metabolites that help maintain a healthy level of active testosterone, provide antioxidant protection and increase bone strength.
Indole-3-carbinol - 100 mg
Indole-3-carbinol is a potent anti-estrogen similar to SERMs (selective oestrogen receptor modulator). IC3 prevents testosterone from aromatising into estrogen, increases free testosterone levels and prevents estrogen-related side effects.
Elimistane(Luteolin) - 50 mg
Elimistane (Luteolin) is a naturally occurring flavonoid that regulates estrogen levels and improves cholesterol levels. Aromatase inhibitors such as Elimistane prevent the conversion of testosterone, an androgen, into estradiol, an estrogen. Elimistane inhibits the biosynthesis of estrogen by reducing aromatase expression and destabilizing the aromatase protein.
