Scivation Fenotest
Testofen is a Fenugreek Extract standardized for Fenuside. Testofen
works by increasing androgen production for the adrenal cortex.
Testofen stimulates the Hypothalamus to produce Corticotropin Releasing
Hormone (CRH), which then acts on the Anterior Pituitary Gland causing
it to produce Adrenocorticotrophin Hormone (ACTH). ACTH then acts on
the Adrenal Cortex causing it to produce androgens, such as
Androstenedione, which can be converted to testosterone.
Interestingly, Testofen seems to have testosterone-like properties on
its own as it can bind to the androgen receptor. Initial studies done
on castrated Swiss Winstar rats have shown Testofen to have similar
anabolic and androgenic activity as testosterone. So not only does
Testofen work by increasing your natural production of testosterone, it
can also activate the androgen receptor itself and produce
testosterone-like effects.
Safed Musli
Safed Musli belongs to the plant family Liliaceae. Safed Musli’s
tuberous roots have been used in ayurvedic medicine (ancient Hindu
science of health and medicine) to treat sexual weakness and impotency
for centuries and it is often referred to as a “Sex Tonic” due to its
saponin content (Stigmasterol and
Hecogenin) which has been shown to increase sexual desire and semen
volume [1]. Some have referred to Safed Musli as an “herbal Viagra”
without any side effects.
Other health benefits of Safed Musli include:
Strengthens the immune system
Improves arthritis
Anti-diabetic properties
Increases physical stamina
Rhodiola Rosea
Rhodiola Rosea belongs to the plant family Crassulaceae and has
been used for centuries in Russia, Scandinavia, and other eastern
countries in traditional medicine. Rhodiola Rosea is known as an
adatogen, a substance that increases an organism’s resistance to
homeostatic disturbances. Rhodiola Rosea has been shown to:
Increase physical working capacity [4]
Improve endurance exercise performance [5]
Antidepressant, anticancer, cardio-protective, and central
nervous system enhancement [6]
Decrease mental fatigue [7]
Of importance to FenoTest’s main mode of action, in a study done on men
suffering from erectile dysfunction, subjects were given 150-200 mg
Rhodiola Rosea per day for three months. 26 of the 35 subjects showed
improved sexual function and 17-ketosteroids in urine (a sign of
increased androgen levels) [2,3]
Bacopa Monnieri
Bacopa Monnieri, an adaptogen like Rhodiola, is also a traditional
Ayurvedic medicine used for centuries as an analgesic (pain reliever),
memory enhancing, anti-inflammatory, antipyretic (fever reducer), and
antiepileptic (prevent convulsions) agent [9]. Recent research shows
bacopa monnieri to have anti-stress properties [8] and antioxidant
properties [10].
Summary

for increased testosterone production and growth. Testofen will
increase androgen production as well as activate the androgen receptor.
Safed Musli will provide potent saponins for sexual health and increase
