Natural Testosterone Supplements VS TRT

There are 2 strategies to increasing your testosterone, naturally and artificially.  Naturally increasing your testosterone involves supplementing and making lifestyle changes whereas the artificial route usually consists of regularly injecting hormones routinely to boost levels.

Use of TRT (testosterone replacement therapy) should be a last resort reserved for those with low testosterone in later life who haven’t seen any success in natural methods.  Despite being extremely effective, TRT has many downsides that frequently go unmentioned.  TRT costs an average of £100 per month, and there are a variety of health problems and side effects that come with TRT but the main issue is that it prevents your body from producing its own testosterone naturally which can be an issue if the artificial injections ever stop, this means that the patient becomes somewhat dependent on injecting testosterone.

Unlike TRT, natural testosterone supplements are ingested orally as capsules and contain only natural ingredients.  They are less effective overall and less consistent than injecting testosterone but they are far healthier, safer, and significantly cheaper and more readily available and flexible than TRT.  In addition, correct use of a group of natural ingredients can prove to have a very powerful effect on an individual’s testosterone levels.

The most well-known ingredients that can be used in natural testosterone supplementation are: ashwagandha, d-aspartic acid, fenugreek, tribulus terrestris, and tongkat ali.  A combination of some or all of these substances will help to boost your testosterone regardless of your situation, whether you are older and looking to raise a beaten down T-level or a young athlete looking to break records and perform optimally.  The only supplement on the market that includes all of these testosterone enhancing extracts is our own OPTEST testosterone supplement.  You can find these on our website at www.optest.co.uk.
