What is Testosterone Support or a “Testo Booster”?
Testosterone was ‘discovered’ by Dr. Charles Brown-Sequard in 1889, but it wasn’t actually named until 1935. The scientists involved, Ruzicka and Butenandt, won a Nobel Prize that same year for making the hormone suitable for commercial use. 7
Men experience a natural decline in the amount of testosterone produced by our bodies over time. Hypogonadism is the term which indicates that a man is producing either a low amount of or no testosterone. This is obviously significant in a number of ways, since the hormone plays a key role in sexual libido, muscle and bone development, immune system functioning, and red blood cell reproduction, among other things. 3 As you get older you may notice a decline in your sex drive, a decrease in your muscle strength, and a shortage of energy. 11
One possibility for dealing with these symptoms is testosterone therapy. This involves administering testosterone directly, for example, via a gel or powder. 11 However, there’s solid research showing that men over 65 who use testosterone gel have a higher risk of developing heart disease. 1 A 2014 study using rats showed that testosterone therapy can have a negative impact on the prostate. 2 There are other known potential symptoms of this type of supplementation including sleep apnea, acne, breast swelling, and high red blood cell count. 3

You probably have noticed most people going for collagen injections and supplements as a way to fight aging effects. This makes you wonder: What’s so special about it? For starters, collagen is a complex protein that exists almost everywhere in the body. It’s present in the blood, in the bones, and under the skin among other parts.
It’s basically what holds your body together. So, being insufficient means the likelihood of aging effects and other complications. Though the protein is naturally produced in your body, the levels drop gradually as you age. This is why you should consider its supplementation. Generally, collagen supplementation comes with the following 10 benefits:

Overview: What is creatine and how does it work?
Creatine is an organic compound primarily found in vertebrates, which is an overwhelming biological division that comprises close to 70,000 species, humans included. The reason why creatine is mostly found in these animals is because the substance is crucial to the recycling of energy at a molecular level, especially when it comes to muscle and brain tissue. Despite the fact that we have known about the compound’s beneficial effect on physical performance for over a century, creatine only came to our attention in the 1990s, when several Olympic medallists disclosed that creatine loading was part of their dietary protocol.

Veda Soothe Review: Does This Supplement Really Work?
Joint pain has been an issue for humankind since the dawn of time, especially as the means of comfort advanced and people switched from hunters and gatherers to couch sitters and television channel surfers. The lack of motion and the decreased amounts of physical exercise people have been getting has caused a decline in the efficiency of the parts in our body responsible for lubricating the space between joints. Since joints have to move regardless of whether or not they are lubricated, the absence of a lubricant subjects the bones to an increased level of friction that eventually leads to the inflammation of those bones.
Needless to mention, inflammation causes pain; in addition, it also shuts down the bones’ healing process before it even begins. When joints are inflamed, the chance of friction and its intensity increase by a long shot so, any movement would be like taking three steps back in the healing process. Now, because it is quite the challenge to stay completely still for enough time for your joints to heal since life is a fast-paced game where everyone constantly has something to do or somewhere to be, Clarity Nutrition has come up with Veda Soothe that is claimed to be able to help speed up the recovery process among a number of other benefits that it provides for our health and physical well-being.

For decades, Fish Oil rich in omega-3 fatty acids has been revered as the best fat for building health and healing properties. Many of us take omega-3 supplements to ensure our intake of the all-important DHA (docosahexaenoic) and EPA (eicosapentaenoic) acids while eliminating the dangers of consuming too many heavy metals and contaminants.
With a direct impact on reducing LDL (the bad-guy cholesterol) and preventing heart disease and stroke, the omega-3’s that abound in Fish oil are genuinely great wonders of nature when it comes to maintaining our overall health and well being. Surprisingly though, only 90% of the omega-3’s we ingest from Fish Oil are absorbed by our bodies. Enter Krill Oil (ClevelandLeader Krill Oil), the ultra-talented new kid on the block who’s already outshining his very successful predecessor. (more…)

Nootropics are supplements or drugs that enhance memory and cognitive development. They are also known as the smart drugs. The mechanism and actions involve increasing the number of neurochemicals present in the body that will cause the increase of oxygen supply and stimulate good nerve function.
This memory-enhancing supplement is often prescribed to dementia patients and individuals that are known to have a below average IQ. In some cases, this drug is also taken by gym buffs who want to give their mental focus a boost. But, contrary to the belief that this will make people intelligent, Neurohacks.co says these supplements serve as stimulators or a nourishment that bridge the gap in the synapse and, therefore, cause an increase in the mental and intellectual function of an individual.

Kratom is becoming a widely popular herbal remedy among the health-conscious around the globe because it is said to provide many health benefits. This herbal product is actually made from the leaves of Mitragyna Speciosa, a tree that belongs to the species of coffee found in the South Pacific regions, particularly in the countries of South-East Asia like Thailand, Myanmar, Malaysia, and their neighboring countries.
Processed leaves are available in local markets and online stores in the forms of powder, capsules, tablets, resins, and raw dried leaves that could be prepared as a tea or brewed like coffee. Although this product has been branded as a medicinal wonder, it is prohibited in some countries like Thailand, Malaysia, Myanmar, Australia, New Zealand, and others that have made the product either illegal or needing prescription from health professionals prior to consumption.

Hair loss is not an alien phenomenon to us humans, as everyone loses hair at different degrees every day. As strands of hair fall out, new ones grow back to replace them, and the cycle continues.
However, in some men, these hair strands fall out, and none sprouts to replace them. As many as 85% of men will have a kind of hair loss at least once in their lifetime. Hair loss affects both men and women and the older we get, the higher our risk of developing it.
Recent studies have shown that hair loss affects 40% of men by the age of 35, 60% of men at 60, and 80% of men at the age of 80.
Hair loss may just be a physical symptom, but it may lead to emotional and psychological problems such as reduced self-esteem, depression, and social anxiety. That’s why it is a serious issue to men. (more…)

A human body is made up of different physical parts that come together to form a complex system. All these body parts will not be able to function if they are not facilitated by certain chemical bodies such as enzymes and hormones. These chemical bodies exist both in males and females and allow the body to perform various different functions. There are growth hormones, sexual hormones, and reproductive hormones among many others. The hormonal activity in a human body within itself is a very complicated one. It is important that the hormone level is maintained at a certain level in order for your body to be able to perform its functions normally.
