However there are so many products out there in the marketplace that either are too low dosed or do not contain the required ingredients that are proven to stimulate more testosterone production.
My BioXgenic High Test Testosterone Booster Review First Look:
As a fan of the weight lifting and playing rugby I want to maximize my output in the gym and I want to create a stronger me.
I also want to shed a bit more fat and increase my libido while also feeling better within.
It’s essentially what every guy wants and it is what draws so many people in to buy testosterone boosters because they can help with all of the aforementioned points.
However there are so many products out there in the marketplace that either are too low dosed or do not contain the required ingredients that are proven to stimulate more testosterone production.
I currently use TestoFuel on a regular basis because it works well for me, it helps me lift more, get bigger so I have more of an impact on the rugby field and ensure that I can have lots of sex with my girlfriend. Because who doesn’t want lots of sex with their girlfriend? That’s your girlfriend, hands off mine.
However, we are here to look at this little number from BioXgenic to see how well it can perform.
My initial thoughts are that it looks cluttered and as much as I hate products with graphs and ‘studies’ referenced on the package this does seem to almost pull it off as a quality product.
However, the ‘physician approved’ moniker is galling.
Yet, it has stirred up quite a bit of discussion with the lads down the rugby club who seem to think this is the next big test booster!
Let’s take a look!
Ingredients: The Science
Zinc Oxide
This mineral is great for boosting testosterone, it is necessary for reactions in your brain and promotes the production of both testosterone and growth hormone.
The amount here is about half of that found in a good ZMA product.
What is strange here is that they use Zinc Oxide, I have looked at some research on rats which would suggest that supplementation of Zinc Oxide can cause immune toxicity.
Green Tea
Well known to have many powerful health benefits.
Clinical studies suggest that green tea extract may boost metabolism and help burn fat.
One study found that the combination of green tea and caffeine improved weight loss and maintenance in people who were overweight and moderately obese.
Some researchers think that substances in green tea known as catechins are responsible for the herb’s fat-burning effect. Green tea extract is found in many a good fat burning supplement.
Coconut Water
Low in carbohydrates and sodium and rich in potassium, which is not exactly what athletes need when exercising rigorously
Hormone Releasing Complex 
L-Arginine
This is found in many pre workout supplements or products designed to make you more vascular.
L-Arginine opens up the blood vessels and arteries to assist with blood flow, nothing really to do with testosterone but may assist with any impotency issues that are not helping you attain that hot chick in the gym who is 15 years your junior.
However, you will require 5g per day alone!
Testosterone Boosting Complex – Testofen
Testofen
Testofen is a Fenugreek extract formula; Fenugreek is a proven ingredient as found in our #3 Testosterone Booster, Testo+ and our benchmark product; Testofuel.
Natural Factors Complex – Tribulus
Tribulus
Once marveled, now known to have no effect on testosterone levels, by now supplement manufacturers should really let go.
Avoid like a medieval plague if you are looking for muscular gainz.
Prostate Safety Complex – Saw Palmetto, Beta Sitosterol, Bioperine
Saw Palmetto
This fatty acid was long touted to help boost testosterone levels, but those claims turned out to be false.
It is effective in suppressing prostate growth though. So could help if you are taking steroids or Prohormones.
BioPerine
The extract of piperine, called BioPerine® in the patented form, has been clinically tested in the United States.
BioPerine® significantly enhances the bioavailability of various supplement nutrients through increased absorption.
Btea-Sitosterols
Research supports the fact that phytosterols, including beta-sitosterol, can reduce cholesterol levels.
Some studies suggest that phytosterols may reduce the risk of some cancers, but more research is needed to know how well they really work.
We’re instructed to take 1 pill three times per day.
We prefer 4 pills spread across the day to evenly spread the nutrients out and prevent massive peaks and troughs.
A daily serving is 2045mg.
This a bit of a mixed bag and certainly not a hardcore, focused testosterone booster. Whilst most of the ingredients are effective at what they do, they’re all doing something different and not particularly working in conjunction with each other for one big effect.
For instance The L-Arginine will help with blood flow but not really effective to stimulate testosterone levels.
The coconut water powder will increase potassium but for long bouts of exercise an isotonic drink is better, tribulus…well it is just bullshit and testofen is great.
Zinc would be too but we’re concerned about the oxide cause immune toxicity.
Tribulus for me is a stand out problem, as is the oxidized zinc, zinc by itself would be much better.
I don’t understand the saw palmetto because there’s hardly a danger of prostate growth unless you are hitting the steroids.
However, the biggest issue is the real lack of cohesion.
Oh, the icing on the cake is that this is also a proprietary blend and you only get 2 weeks supply for $69.99 – that’s $139.98 per month!
BioXgenic High Test Testosterone Booster Review Conclusion:
This product is trying to cover too many bases with too little and isn’t a real specialist at either.
A mismatch of ingredients, very expensive price, a proprietary blend and the embarrassing tribulus all make for a product I would rather avoid.
The lads down the rugby club clearly need to do a bit more research rather than just relying on gossip.
Take a look at what works to maximize your workouts at a reasonable price and safely.
But we’ll save that for the next section. First, we’ll try and find out more about the company behind BioXgenic high test.
BioXGenic Ingredients Explained
Now, here’s where things get a bit messy in our honest opinion. We don’t really like consuming unknown dosages of ingredients, so naturally, we’re not fans of proprietary blends being added to supplements.
So what are proprietary blends? Well, they are a mixture of several ingredients usually under a fancy title; you’re only shown the overall dosage of the whole blend, instead of the individual nutrients. Ultimately, this is a bad thing in our opinion.
Why are proprietary blends bad? Well, this is because consuming big dosages of certain ingredients can cause side effects. So it’s always better to know exactly how much you’re putting into your body – to stay safe.
Anyway, we’ll take you through each ingredient in BioXgenic in this section. By the end of this review, you’ll have a good idea of how safe and effective this test booster really is.
Here’s Everything You Need To Know:
Hormone Releasing X Complex
This is the first proprietary blend in BioxGenic. It consists of 6 ingredients overall; L-Glutamine, L-Arginine, L-Lysine, L-Tyrosine, GABA, and L-Ornithine.
The strange thing is that none of these ingredients aren’t mainly known for being capable of raising your testosterone levels. So we’re a little confused as to why this is called a ‘hormone releasing X complex’.
If anything, this should be a ‘nitric oxide boosting complex’ because that’s what L-Arginine and L-Ornithine are believed to do.
L-Tyrosine is useful at improving your focus while working out. But there’s no studies to show that it’s able to improve your T levels. As a result, we don’t think that this proprietary blend is very effective in BioXgenic.
Testosterone Boosting X Complex
This seems to be the main part of BioxGenic that’s designed to raise your T levels. So let’s hope that it can get the job done…
However, while it’s been titled like a proprietary blend, there is only one ingredient in here; Fenugreek Seed Extract.
In fairness, this is definitely the best ingredient in BioxGenic as Fenugreek Seed Extract has proven to raise T levels in numerous studies. Even more good news is that it’s been dosed well here too.
For this reason, we have no problem with Fenugreek Seed Extract in this test booster supplement. Good job by BioXgenic here.
Natural Factors X Complex
In our honest opinion, this is the proprietary blend that contains the worst ingredient in BioxGenic (Tribulus Terrestris). It also contains Eurycoma Longifolia, and Avena Sativa.
So why is Tribulus Terrestris so bad? Well, it’s been linked with increases prostate weight (prostate enlargement) in the past.
Not only that, Tribulus Terrestris hasn’t shown to actually boost your T levels either.
For this reason, Tribulus Terrestris is an ineffective addition to BioXgenic in our honest opinion.
If you’re wondering about Eurycoma Longifolia and Avena Sativa; these 2 nutrients aren’t able to raise your T levels either, although they might benefit your cholesterol (due to Avena Sativa being oats) and your libido slightly.
In our honest opinion, instead of consuming oats extract, you might as well enjoy some porridge with some peanut butter…at least this will fuel your workout with some healthy fats and protein.
Prostate Safety Complex
This is the final proprietary blend in BioXgenic. It contains three ingredients; Saw Palmetto Extract, Beta Sitosterol, and BioPerine.
Basically, Saw Palmetto is a common addition in supplements alongside Tribulus Terrestris. Why? Because Saw Palmetto has shown to potentially improve your prostate health.
However, we don’t believe that there’s anything to prove that it can counteract the effects of Tribulus Terrestris directly. So we would rather not consume Tribulus Terrestris in the first place.
In case you’re wondering, BioPerine is basically Black Pepper Extract; this has shown to improve the absorption rate of ingredients due to containing concentrated amounts of piperine.
In terms of Beta Sisterol, the only benefit that this might deliver is improved cholesterol levels. BioXgenic High Test has these ingredients in these forms, which are not in Test X180 Alpha:
Formula Comparison
Test X180 Alpha and BioXgenic High Test are both testosterone boosters with multiple modes of action to give you more health benefits.
Test X180 Alpha is a free testosterone booster for elite men, and it can:
- Enhance sexual performance
- Build lean muscle mass
BioXgenic High Test is a physician-approved male performance enhancer, and it can:
How are the formulas of Test X180 Alpha and BioXgenic High Test similar?
Test X180 Alpha and BioXgenic High Test both contain proprietary blends for maximum masculinity and performance enhancement. Hence, they use similar ingredients which we listed below:
| Ingredient | Test X180 Alpha | BioXgenic High Test |
| Zinc | Zinc (as Zinc Oxide) 8 mg (53% DV) | Zinc (as Zinc Oxide) 30 mg (200% RDA) |
| Fenugreek | Testofen® Fenugreek Seed Extract (standardized to contain min. 50% Fenuside™) unknown quantity | Testofen® (Fenugreek Extract standardized for Fenuside™) 600 mg |
Testofen® is a potent and branded form of fenugreek extract. It is a standardized herbal extract with science-backed effects. Fenugreek is great for libido and muscle performance. Test X180 Alpha and BioXgenic High Test have similar benefits. Fenugreek produces these benefits effectively.
In addition, the body easily absorbs this form of standardized fenugreek extract. Testofen® is a great ingredient for both of these supplements because of its awesome health benefits:
- Balances cholesterol
- Wards off muscular discomfort
- Boosts renal function
- Suppresses appetite
- Improves digestion
However, fenugreek is an overrated testsoterone-boosting ingredient since the manufacturers themselves funded the research supporting this particular benefit.
How are the formulas of Test X180 Alpha and BioXgenic High Test different?
Test X180 Alpha and BioXgenic High Test both offer the same form of zinc (a mineral which also helps strengthen bones, improve sleep quality, boost immunity, and keep free radicals at bay), which is zinc oxide. The body doesn’t easily absorb this form of zinc. Zinc oxide is the cheapest form of this mineral. However, it is not the best because of its poor bioavailability.
Nevertheless, BioXgenic High Test offers a higher dosage which significantly increases the amount of bioavailable zinc in the body.
Segue, these 2 formulas have different ingredients, too.
Test X180 Alpha has these ingredients, which are not in BioXgenic High Test:
- Thiamin (Vitamin B1) (as Thiamin Mononitrate)
- Riboflavin (Vitamin B2)
- Vitamin B6 (as Pyridoxine Hydrochloride)
- Vitamin B12 (as Cyanocobalamin)
- Selenium (as Selenium Amino Acid Chelate)
- Copper (as Copper Oxide)
- Manganese (as Amino Acid Chelate) (a powerful vasodilator you can find in many pre-workout formulas)
- Catuaba Bark Extract
- Damiana Leaf Extract
- Muira Puama Root Extract
- White Mushroom
- Stinging Nettle Extract
- Diindolylmethane (DIM)
BioXgenic High Test has these ingredients in these forms, which are not in Test X180 Alpha:
- L-Glutamine (as free form amino acid)
- L-Arginine as HCL
- L-Lysine as HCL
- L-Tyrosine (as free form amino acid)
- GABA (Gamma-aminobutyric acid)
- Eurycoma longifolia (20:1 extract)
- Avena sativa (10:1 Extract)
- Saw Palmetto (50% sterols and free fatty acids)
- BioPerine®
Which is the better formula?
Test X180 Alpha has a lot of ingredients which can potentially deliver good results. However, the ingredients in Test X180 Alpha come in mediocre dosages; thus, they affect the potency and overall effectiveness of the entire formula. The proprietary blend hid the dosages of some ingredients probably because they aren’t of much significance.
In addition, fenugreek is the only standardized herb the formula has. The rest come in plain powder form which isn’t really that potent at all. Test X180 Alpha contains a lot of good ingredients, but they lack potency due to the forms the manufacturer offers.
BioXgenic High Test has a four-prong plan for muscles, testosterone, sex, and prostate. This formula seems it has everything that you need in a male performance enhancer. Look no further than the superb forms of ingredients it offers.
However, despite the superb standardized herbs and amino acids of the proprietary blends of BioXgenic High Test, it still hides the dosages of most of its ingredients. Knowing the dosage of each ingredient is important especially if you plan to take other dietary supplements with the same ingredients (but for a different purpose).
Test X180 Alpha and BioXgenic High Test both contain proprietary blends which hide the dosages of some of the ingredients. The nutrient combinations and forms of ingredients of BioXgenic High Test are superior to that of Test X180 Alpha.
In addition, the standardized herbs and BioPerine® (black pepper fruit extract) of BioXgenic High Test almost guarantees maximum absorption and effectiveness of the entire formula. Therefore, the four-prong plan of BioXgenic High Test emerges as the better formula in this showdown.
If you’re feeling as though you have low energy or are having sexual problems, don’t assume that low testosterone is the cause or that a testosterone booster is the solution.
What to Do Instead
If you’re feeling as though you have low energy or are having sexual problems, don’t assume that low testosterone is the cause or that a testosterone booster is the solution.
Stress, lack of sleep or exercise, and feelings about your partner can also sap your vim and vigor. Plus, diabetes, obesity, and pituitary tumors can contribute to low testosterone, as can some drugs. So they should be ruled out first.
“There’s nothing romantic or age-defying about a drug that comes with long-term risks to you and the people you live with,” says Marvin M. Lipman, M.D., Consumer Reports’ chief medical adviser.
Instead, try safer ways to bring back that lovin’ feeling: Eat right, exercise, reduce stress, and have a long talk with your partner and your doctor. If you start treatment, reassess after a few months and watch for worrisome side effects in you and those around you.
One customer was offered with a trial bottle. However, when he checked his credit card, he found that the company deducted the amount of the supplement from it. This is not justified on the part of the company. It cannot simply deduct the amount without the permission of the customer and force them to the purchase. Such indirect strategies do not work at all. – Harry W Brisbane, Australia
BioXgenic High Test Review: Ingredients, Side Effects & Results
User Rating
2.5/5 (10 Reviewer)
What are the traits of a perfect masculine man? Hey no, it does not count which type of shirt he wears and the type of cologne he smells? Masculinity of man is not determined by how he smells and with respect to his outer clothes. It depends indirectly on his hormones.
The way he enters the gym in pride, the way he blasts out in a workout session, the way he talks diligently and humbly to people and the way he is happy in his intimate life with his partner – All these things really count in determining the masculinity of a man. All these aspects are influenced largely by the hormonal balance in a man.
Oftentimes, people tend to neglect the hormonal balance in a man’s body. Most of the attention is given to the hormones in females, saying that her biological clock is ticking off. But what about a man’s biological clock? Yes, he too has one apart from his usual wristwatch. As many supplements claim to state the benefits of raising testosterone, we will learn more about this one – BioXgenic High Test. We will know whether it is truly beneficial or else, we will discuss about some other substitutes.
What Is BioXgenic High Test?
BioXgenic High Test is the advanced formulation created by GNC that provides the customers with a three pronged testosterone-formation. It also consists of the fourth prong that is full of prostate support elements.
Thus, this product has unique elements in its working such as the four prongs that fortifies and nurtures the significant organs in a man.
Manufacturer Information And Claims About Bioxgenic High Test
The manufacturer claims can be listed out as below:
Promotion of lean body mass in the form of stronger and bigger muscles
Acceleration of the testosterone levels in a natural manner
Improvement in the libido and energy levels
Protection of the prostate organs
As men enter their 30s or 40s, some of their organs began to become weak, particularly the prostate organs. Other supplements mainly take care of the testosterone levels but they do not protect the health of the prostate organs. However, this supplement is an exception which protects your prostate and helps you to stay away from some of the hazardous diseases.
Features and Specifications
It is an advanced and testosterone boosting formulation.
It is comprised of four pronged formulation that nurtures various organs of our body.
How Does BioXgenic High Test Work?
This supplement works in the form of four prongs. Let us study each of these prongs in detail for clear understanding.
Prong 1: Release of necessary hormones in the body – Research shows that some kind of amino acids are helpful in releasing the growth hormone. L-Arginine is an ingredient that stimulates this growth hormone and speeds up the tissue repair process. As a result, the recovery time needed after an injury is lesser than earlier. Another ingredient, L-Ornithing improves the levels of human growth hormone and reduces tiredness and fatigue resulting out of exercise regime.
Prong 2: Formation of testosterone – As per the clinical research undertaken, Testofen is useful in supporting the levels of free testosterone, maintaining muscle mass and in reducing the nasty layers of body fat.
Prong 3: Natural Factors – You can find the use of tribulus terrestris in the Indian Ayurveda and Chinese medicine. This ingredient helps in acquiring better and stronger erections in men during sexual intercourse, more amounts of ejaculation and enhances muscular density. Hence, along with stronger muscles, your sexual drive and your sexual performance is also improved to a great extent.
Prong 4: Protection of Prostate organs – As you increase levels of testosterone, the prostate also gets strengthened. Hence, men above the age of 40 can seek a sigh of relief with this supplement. Saw palmetto is an important ingredient that protects prostate and urinary organ health. It also reduces inflammation. Bioperine is an ingredient that absorbs and increases the bioavailability of other ingredients contained in this supplement.
Hence, you get a power-packed formulation in the form of this supplement.
