Cistanche Tubulosa, also known as desert ginseng, is a holoparasitic plant which completely lacks chlorophyll and survives by growing on and absorbing nutrients from a host plant. Cictanche Extract has a long history of use in traditional Chinese medicine and has recently gained popularity in the west for its beneficial properties to testosterone levels and cognitive function.

Cistanche Tubulosa is an especially rich source of echinacosides and acteosides which both support both BDNF and healthy testosterone levels. Our Cistanche Extract is standardized to 10% echinacodises and 1% acteosides.

For use as a supplement for testosterone or cognitive function, we recommend taking two capsules (500 mg) per day with or without food. While higher doses can be taken safely, side effects are more likely at high dosages. We don’t recommend exceeding four capsules (1000 mg) per day.

Cistanche Tubulosa is safe and well tolerated with side effects being rarely reported, although they are more common at higher doses. Reported side effects include abdominal pain, nausea, dizziness, and a mild laxative effect.

Cistanche Extract should also not be taken in combination with barbituates as one study found that it may potentiate the effect of these drugs.
