If you are a man and noticed that you do not feel the way you did 10 years ago, as men so often do, we tend to shrug it off and say it’s nothing.
However, little do millions of men know that low testosterone is an extremely common, yet manageable condition that can have profound effects on all aspects of male health. Addressing this is often easier said than done, as the hundreds of all-natural testosterone boosting supplements on the market is sure to confuse even the most savvy label reader.
This is exactly why I decided to conduct my unbiased Testo Lab Pro review. Will this supplement stand up to scientific scrutiny, or will it be brushed to the wayside like dozens of others? Let’s explore all that the supplement claims it can do for you.

What Exactly Is Testo Lab Pro?
Testo Lab Pro is an all-natural supplement which takes pride in offering you a multi-pathway testosterone support system that is ideal for male performance.
It claims to be able to increase testosterone synthesis, and support healthy levels, keeping testosterone circulating for a longer time, due to their unique formulation. It also claims to be designed for performance, although the type of performance they are talking about is anyone’s guess.
Among its claimed benefits are:
- Supporting the compounds that stimulates luteinizing hormone and follicle hormone signaling, which in turn then increases testosterone production in the testes.
- Improves muscle growth, athletic potential and overall masculine virility.
- Counteracts effects of the female hormone estrogen, the stress hormone cortisol, and free radicals which all can adversely affect testosterone production and levels.
Pros Of The Supplement
- All-natural formula makes it suitable for consumption by anyone concerned about using synthetic supplements.
- Reasonably priced for a bottle, and cheaper if purchased in bulk.
- Safe for vegetarian and vegan use; capsules are claimed to be probiotic friendly (probably being used for nourishment by probiotic bacteria in the gut)
- Product is made in certified GMP facility that ensures product purity.
- Can easily be purchased from the official manufacturer’s website
Cons Of The Supplements
- No publicly available feedback from consumers (as yet).
- The manufacturer’s website does not clearly disclose how the supplement should be taken, which could mislead you into thinking that the 60 capsule bottle is enough to last a month.
Who Is Testo Lab Pro For?
While it does not explicitly state it, the name of the supplement would indicate that it is mostly for sportsmen and athletes seeking performance enhancement naturally, or for bodybuilders looking to improve the rate of muscle protein synthesis, while at the same time controlling the effect of the hormone estrogen on the body.
Looking at the product label, at first glance I was impressed by it, which is why I decided to undertake this detailed unbiased review. For one, the manufacturer does not mask their ingredient dosages by listing them in a proprietary blend, but clearly indicates how much of each is contained per serving.
This is great in the effort of transparency, and is only likely to translate to good customer feedback as the product becomes more recognized.
Even though I believe this is a relatively new supplement on the market, it needs to develop a more pronounced reputation on various marketplaces. The lack of customer testimonials is a bit worrying, and something we usually factor into determining how well a supplement is likely to perform overall.
The only exception to this are cases where the ingredients are proven to be effective and some of the gold standards of testosterone boosting supplements, and the supplement is new- as is the case this time.
It’s time we take a deeper look at the ingredient profile of the supplement now.
Testo Lab Pro Ingredients And Dosage
The manufacturer clearly provides its ingredient label on the website, which lists serving size as two capsules. This is great, but is likely to confuse people who would naturally think that two capsules are the daily serving size.
However, after further research, I found that the actual dose is four capsules per day, splitting doses of 1 to 2 capsules with breakfast, and 1 to 2 capsules with the last meal of the day. So, some people are likely to take as little as two capsules per day, while orders may end up taking four.
What determines how much should I take exactly? I didn’t like this one bit, as it leaves to chance you deciding on your own optimal dosage.
Let’s check out its actual ingredients now:
D-Aspartic Acid Calcium Chelate (D-AA-CC)
We have long been strong advocates of D-Aspartic Acid, as in our opinion it is the number one effective testosterone booster that you can find in a supplement. Testo Lab Pro gets full points here, but you may be wondering what is this strange calcium chelate about?
According to the manufacturer, the inclusion of calcium chelate with the D-Aspartic Acid translates to improved absorption, and reduced gastric discomfort that is sometimes experienced following the consumption of a product with this ingredient.
They also claim that the chelated form also improves bioavailability, which means that you can use less of the D-Aspartic Acid, and experience the same results as a greater dose.
D-Aspartic Acid has been proven in studies to result in significant improvements in testosterone levels, with a study demonstrating an increase of 42% over the course of just 12 days [1]. Testo Lab Pro contains 1000 mg of the D-Aspartic Acid per two capsules size serving, while the study used a dose of3.2g (3200mg).
I cannot draw conclusions of if the chelated form does indeed equate to a greater dose of pure D-Aspartic Acid based on my research, or exactly what is the bioequivalence, but it still gets a passing grade for inclusion of this ingredient.

Ashwagandha Root
Ashwagandha Root is one of the most promising ingredients to look for in testosterone boosters, owing to the fact that it works via numerous mechanisms that synergistically increase testosterone levels.
For example, Ashwagandha Root is an adaptogen, which helps the body to buffer the effects of stress. In fact, studies have demonstrated at Ashwagandha Root can help to reduce cortisol levels by as much as 30% after just 90 days of consumption[2]. Cortisol and testosterone share what is referred to as a negatively inverse connection; in the sense that as one decreases, the other increases.
Or consider the fact that supplementation can help to boost testosterone levels in both healthy and infertile men, by up to 16 and 40% respectively [3], as was demonstrated in a different study.
Last but not least is the fact that Ashwagandha Root consumption is associated with an improved sense of well-being, strongly associated with overall androgen levels.
Mucuna Pruriens
Also known as velvet bean, Mucuna Pruriens has been used in Indian Ayurvedic medicine for centuries as natural management for Parkinson’s disease, and as an effective aphrodisiac.
Although it’s true potency was not known, in past years this has been revealed as due to the presence of L-dopa, an amino acid precursor to the important neurotransmitter dopamine.
Most people don’t appreciate the effect that dopamine has on male hormonal health, even though studies have revealed that it helps to upregulate the androgen receptor[4](so that better binding of the hormones testosterone and DHT occur, and subsequently the effect they elicit), promote testosterone production[5], and even suppress prolactin, which can inhibit testosterone production signaling from the brain.
But this is not all it can do. Velvet bean also has an anti-catabolic effect, which suppresses cortisol, and has also been observed to increase the parameters of sperm health.
By now, this would be more than enough to convince anyone to try a supplement containing velvet been, but owing to the fact that it converts readily into dopamine, your motivation and sense of well-being is bound to skyrocket as well. Ever heard of a nootropic supplement? These increase brain function and are useful tools when studying or if your line of work involves a lot of mental and cognitive tasks.
Highly recommended and commended for its inclusion in Testo Lab Pro, with one major caveat- quite a number of the studies conducted were conducted on infertile men or those with subpar sexual function.
Luteolin
Luteolin is a natural flavonoid compound found in many plant-based foods that we consume, with common sources including celery and oranges. The manufacturer of this particular supplement makes use of an extract from orange fruit, which is proven to have anti-aromatase properties.
Aromatase is the name of the enzyme which converts testosterone into estrogens, which is generally undesirable in men, especially in abundance.
While most standard aromatase inhibitors work by binding to the enzyme and preventing testosterone from interacting with the enzyme, Luteolin works a bit differently, by preventing the production of the enzyme in the first place[6]. It still also binds to the enzyme that has been produced, and thus, can be considered to have a unique dual action aromatase inhibition mechanism.
It is not known as yet if these effects persist indefinitely, but keep in mind men also need small amounts of estrogen for overall health.
Testo Lab Pro Results From Users
As the product appears to be very new on the market, it has not had the chance to accumulate customer testimonial reviews as yet. However, I am confident that they will likely be favorable based on the ingredient list- stay tuned for an updated review as they become available.
Testo Lab Pro Side Effects
Being a new supplement, there haven’t been any reports of adverse effects from consumption as yet, and being all-natural there isn’t much that you will experience overall.
With the exception of possible stomach upset from the presence of the D-aspartic acid, it should be tolerated well by most of the men that use it.
Summary – Does Testo Lab Pro Really Work?
Going by my initial analysis of the ingredients listed in it, there appears to be promise in this supplement yet. It takes advantage of some proven effective ingredients, which will do a lot to translate to favorable customer testimonials.
But of course, we need to wait on feedback before definitely assigning it a grade. However, from the looks of it, it has already superseded many other supplements that include sheer garbage in their formulation.
The added fact that they do not hide the ingredient list in a propriety blend is also a good sign, and trait of a product that will be here for the long haul. Last, is its price; it does a good job of falling in the mid-range of the going price for similar supplements, and is likely to give you at least a fair return on your investment.
Where To Buy Testo Lab Pro
Being a new product in the market, for the time being it can only be purchased on the official manufacturer’s website. I have no doubt that as it becomes more popular and in higher demand that it will also spread to major retailers.
