Someone mentioned this supplement to last month on babble. I've been looking into it and I see some bottles online costing between $100-200 while others costing like $15.
Is the cheap kind actually any good for libido?

Tongkat ali seems to get marked up quite a bit and is often sold in very low dosages for high prices. You have to shop around.The kind I like is 1:200 root extract. For 100 capsules of 300 mg each of this potency, I pay about $60 online. It comes from Indonesia since it can no longer be exported from Malaysia. The Indonesian name for this herb is Pasak Bumi.

UD Sumatra Pasak Bumi is the producer.
The "recommended dose" on the bottle is 4 capsules a day. I would start with one a day and see how it goes for awhile. Also you are supposed to cycle, two weeks on and one week off, you aren't supposed to take it continuously.
