Axis Labs Myodex Review

|

Considering Testosterone Boosters only became a popular gym supplement over the past 5 years, the market is filled with them. There’s hundreds, but we know that many are ineffective – so we’re always looking for the next big thing.

Claimed to promote:

  • Test levels
  • Strength
  • Estrogen balance

We like products that do what they’re advertised to do, so we’ll take a close look at Myodex’s nutrient profile to see whether it can deliver the goods, in this review.

Take a look:

About The Company

On their ‘about us’ section, Axis Labs claim to be “one of the most reliable names in sports nutrition supplementation”. But we hadn’t heard of them before…and there’s no way Axis Labs is more established than some of the big boys like Optimum Nutrition or MusclePharm.

Anway, this company was founded in 2006 and to be fair, this testosterone booster is advertised on bodybuilding.com as a ‘best-seller’ – but it’s strange that we’ve never heard of the company or product before.

The Ingredients and How They Work

After looking at Myodex’s nutrient profile, we were surprised to only see 3 ingredients on there. From experience, we know that the best testosterone boosters on the market contain around 8-9 ingredients overall – so it’ll be interesting to see how Myodex compares.

But we’ve spotted something we don’t like in this test booster; Myodex contains a proprietary blend.

What’s a proprietary blend? Well, these blends are mixtures of numerous nutrients that are shown to you as 1 quantity – so you don’t know the exact dosages of each nutrient inside.

Why’s this bad? Well, some ingredients can be harmful in large dosages. So if you don’t know the exact dosage, you’re putting yourself at risk by consuming products containing proprietary blends.

Anyway, we’re here to examine the ingredients inside Myodex – so let’s get started:

myodex-nutrient-profile

Saw Palmetto Extract 

This is a the extract from the Serenoa Repends plant that’s believed to positively affect your testosterone levels (as well as surpress prostate growth).

However, Saw Palmetto Extract hasn’t actually shown to improve your test levels in any studies – meaning it’s not a reliable ingredient in a test booster supplement.

As a result, we don’t consider this worth consuming. Not only that, Saw Palmetto Extract has been reported to cause numerous side effects – so we recommend avoiding it.

3-diindolylmethane 

Also known simply as DIM, we always try to avoid this ingredient – it’s on our list of ingredients for one reason – it’s not needed in a test booster, and can cause a side effect.

What side effect? Well, DIM can increase your estrogen levels when consumed in large dosages (as it’s part of a proprietary blend, no-one knows the exact dosage inside Myodex (which puts you at risk of this side effect).

Why’s it not needed? Well, no natural testosterone booster can put you at risk from suffering raised estrogen levels.

The bottom line is that DIM isn’t needed and can cause an unwanted side effect.

Quercetin Dihydrate 

This is a bioflavanoid that’s not very reliable when consumed separately. But it’s believed to improve the absorption of such things as Resveratrol (the compound in wine believed to improve your lifespan) and Green Tea Catechins).

Anyway, all you need to know is that Quercetin Dihydrate hasn’t shown to have any effect on testosterone levels. As a result, this is a useless ingredient inside Myodex.

Quick Summary of Ingredients 

It’s worrying that none of the ingredients inside Myodex are proven to raise your testosterone levels…as it’s a test booster supplement.

Not only that, there are ingredients in proprietary blends that have been reported to cause numerous side effects. Ultimately, this makes Myodex an ineffective product that has a high risk of causing side effects – not something you want to pay for.

How To Take

The instructions on the box of Myodex states that its serving size is 1 capsule per day. This isn’t good.

Why? Because 1 capsule will only stay in your system for a short time; this is why products that come with 3-4 capsule serving sizes are the best (they ensure you’re body is constantly fuelled with test boosting nutrients, making it more likely for you to get results).

As a result, the 1 capsule serving size of Myodex makes it even more likely not to work.

Review Conclusion

We realize this review looks very harsh. But after reading about the ingredients inside Myodex, can you really blame us? No.

We’re surprised that a company marketing themselves as “one of the most reliable names in sports nutrition supplementation” have failed to add any nutrients shown to raise your testosterone levels – into their testosterone booster supplement!

This shows a complete lack of research and testing on their behalf. In fact, Myodex is more likely to cause side effects than boost your T levels.

As a result, you should look at the best test boosters available, rather than waste your money on Myodex. We call a spade “a spade” – and this test booster certainly is a waste of money.
