Testosterone Boosters

What is a testosterone booster?

A testosterone booster is a supplement used to promote the production of natural testosterone. This is achieved primarily through various herbs, minerals and vitamins. Certain testosterone boosters are often also used for post-cycle therapy (PCT) for athletes who have come off of the use of anabolics.

Supplementing with testosterone boosters

Testosterone boosters are primarily used in a recommended 8-week cycle, followed by 1 month off to maintain optimal results. Testosterone boosters are primarily in capsule form with on average, a 6 pill dosing, the time of this dosing will vary between each product, so be sure to follow the instructions before beginning supplementation.

If you are a competitive athlete who is drug tested, check the ingredients to make sure there are no banned substances that could cause a failed test result in a Drug-Free Sport New Zealand test. Even though some of these ingredients may provoke a failed result, it does not mean that said result is for steroids.
