Before you buy
- Sleep, training, a balanced diet and a healthy body weight have the biggest effect on hormone health.
- Zinc, magnesium and vitamin D are common nutrients; a blood test from your GP shows whether you are low.
- Herbal formulas vary widely, so compare ingredients and doses on the label.
- If you have symptoms of low testosterone, see your doctor rather than self-treating.
Order online with Australia-wide delivery, free on orders of $100 or more, or visit a Supps247 store in Melbourne, regional Victoria or Brisbane to compare tubs in person and taste flavours before you buy. Members can use our price match guarantee on full-priced items.
Supplements should not replace a balanced diet. Always read the label and use only as directed. If symptoms persist, or if you are pregnant, take medication or have a medical condition, talk to your doctor or pharmacist.
Do testosterone boosters work?
Evidence varies by ingredient and is often limited. Correcting a genuine deficiency, for example in zinc or vitamin D, is where supplements are most likely to matter. Talk to your GP if you are concerned about your hormone levels.
What is tongkat ali, and how do I choose one in Australia?
Tongkat ali (Eurycoma longifolia) is a herbal root extract. A 2022 meta-analysis of five small trials found a rise in total testosterone, clearest in men whose levels were low to begin with, and the authors said more research is needed, so see any benefit as possible rather than proven. If you are new to it, pick a single-ingredient extract that states its strength, such as
Beast Labs Nutrition Tongkat Ali 500 mg (200:1 extract) or
Allmax LongJack Tongkat Ali (325 mg per capsule). Buy tongkat ali online with Australia-wide delivery, and read our
tongkat ali guide.

What is the best testosterone booster in Australia?
There is no single best natural testosterone booster, because most ingredients have not been shown to raise testosterone. A 2024 systematic review of 27 ingredients found most failed to increase total testosterone, with tongkat ali and ashwagandha rated only possibly effective in healthy men. Australia's Healthy Male says these supplements are likely to be unhelpful. If you still want to try one, choose a label that shows the dose of each ingredient rather than a long blend, such as a single tongkat ali extract or our
ashwagandha range. See your GP for a blood test if you think your levels are low.
Are testosterone boosters safe, and how much should I take per day?
Take no more than the label dose of one product, and do not stack boosters. Side effects depend on the ingredients: tongkat ali trials have reported gut symptoms and itching, and ashwagandha can cause stomach upset and drowsiness. A 2020 study of 50 boosters found many held several times the daily needs for zinc and B vitamins, and 13 went over upper limits, so keep your total zinc at or below 40 mg a day. The AIS lists testosterone boosters in Group D, not for use by drug-tested athletes. Talk to your GP first if you take medication or have a medical condition.
Should men over 40 take a testosterone booster?
Not as a first step. Healthdirect says testosterone gradually falls with age, and lower levels in healthy older men are generally not a medical concern. Bigger drops are more often linked to obesity or long-term health conditions. Low testosterone is diagnosed by a GP, usually with an early-morning fasting blood test that is repeated to confirm the result. Regular exercise, a healthy diet, weight loss if needed and managing stress can all help. If your levels are normal, a supplement is unlikely to add much. Browse our
men's range and ask your pharmacist to check it against your medicines.
What is D-aspartic acid, and does it raise testosterone?
D-aspartic acid (DAA) is a form of the amino acid aspartic acid. A 2017 systematic review found it raised testosterone in animal studies, but the four human studies gave inconsistent results and were small and of poor quality. A 2024 review of testosterone boosters did not rate DAA as effective. If you still want to try it, we stock
Allmax D-Aspartic Acid,
Switch D-Aspartic Acid and
EVL D-Aspartic Acid Powder (3,120 mg per serve). Follow the label, and see your GP if you have symptoms of low testosterone.
