Just want to add a little more for anyone interested in tongkat ali. It's very popular in Malaysia and has been used for centuries there to help support healthy testosterone levels and overall sexual performance. It's even been featured on the Dr. Oz Show.

However, there are a lot of bad products out there, so do your research before you buy anything. Look for products with Physta, which is a patented form of tongkat ali that was developed by Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT).
