    Then the formula as a whole.

    Doses, ratios, and how the ingredients work together. That assessment is the verdict above: "Strong evidence, strong dose".

  4. 04
    Earned, not bought.

    The verdict is public and identical whether or not a brand pays. A formula that does not clear the bar gets nothing.

What the trials show

What the trials show about timing.

Time-to-effect windows the engine read from the trial record. Each is a window a named study measured, cited and dated, never written by the brand.

  • Boronabout one week of daily useBuilds with daily use

    The same eight healthy men then took 10 mg of boron daily with breakfast for seven days, with an 8 a.m. blood draw on day seven. Mean plasma free testosterone increased and mean plasma estradiol decreased significantly, while dihydrotestosterone, cortisol and vitamin D were elevated and all three inflammatory markers fell. The authors describe this as the first human report of a rise in free testosterone after boron intake. There is no placebo arm across the seven days and the sample is eight men, so the one-week figure rests on a single small study.
