    Hat down to you for intelligent response.



    As for "psychocarryyougotsyouburrito" - by some research it does not really raise serum testosterone but it seems that it helps with some other parameters and does have some other benefits.

    You guys ever play Street Fighter 2 back in the day? When Ken or Ryu does the crazy spin kick move they yell "psycho carry you got's you burrito!"

    Interesting for sure but I feel like I've heard this all before.

    In the first abstract I'm basically seeing that there is an herb, that when given in high doses to mice, "multiple measures of sexual behavior were enhanced" and "the expression of StAR was also increased"

    Cool.

    I like the second abstract if just for the reason the study was conducted with eugonadal patients over 40. Although I am not very familiar with the Aging Males' Symptoms (AMS) scale, Self-rated Depression Scale (SDS), International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS), and King's Health Questionnaire (KHQ), what intrigues me the most is: "The serum concentrations of testosterone fractions did not change with treatment" but improved symptoms? Quality of life? I'll have to read up on the different scales scores and questionnaires.

    Now the third study seems to reinforce the second one posted in the fact that "In the SKRBT group, although the total AMS score was significantly decreased, testosterone did not change". But.. the increase in cytokines improves symptoms of late-onset hypogonadism. Hmm. Would def like to see more studies.

    Once again mice and rats seem to have a leg up on humans when given exotic herbs. If only..


    Thanks for posting!
