Yeah I know, you've seen this type of title many times over. Here we go again, right? Well, wait. Muscletech's Anotest has created a supplement to support testosterone production from a four pronged approach and this one has real human science and bro science behind it. Not just rat studies. First the real science.

D-Aspartic Acid
In a 2009 study researchers found the study participants who supplemented with 3 grams of d-aspartic acid along with B6, B12 and Folic Acido increased LH levels by 30% and testosterone levels by 40%.
L-Carnitine Tartrate
In a 2003 study researchers showed that a 2 g dose of l-carnitine tartrate results in greater uptake of testosterone into muscle tissue. Resulting in greater recovery. This form of carnitine increased androgen receptors in muscle tissue.
Boron Citrate
In order testosterone to enter muscle tissue it must be free testosterone. In a 2011 study, researchers found that 10 g of boron at breakfast increased free testosterone by 28% and lowered their estradiol level by 39%.
Glutamine, BCAAs
Cortisol and testosterone have an inverse relationship. Lower cortisol equals higher testosterone. A 2010 study featured in the Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research showed that supplementation of 2 g glutamine, 1.8 g leucine, .75 g valine and .75 g isoleucine lowered cortisol levels in strength trained athletes. Lower C, Higher T.
Muscletech combines all of these ingredients in one tasty punch. Along with 15mg of testes supporting Zinc, B6, Folic Acid, and B12.
Now for the "Bro Science".
I'm 46 years old. I wonder why I don't have the energy, mood and sex drive I used to have. After a week on this, I have more energy, a better mood and I am waking my wife up regularly. I love this stuff. I was previously buying separately B-vitamins, ZMA, D-aspartic acid, L-carnitine tartrate, Boron, glutamine and BCAAs.
