Common questions we came across whilst researching our Mdrive Reviews
Mdrive prime has a good ingredients list for a $30 supplement, so let's break it down.
Vitamin D - 10mcg - We like Vitamin D, fixing a deficiency, which almost half of all adults in the USA have, will result in raised testosterone. Up to about 40% increases in overall testosterone have been shown [4]. Vitamin D has also been shown to improve athletic performance across the board in higher doses. However, this amount of Vit D3 is more likely to simply help avoid a deficiency than bolster performance which is helpful for maintaining and building lean muscle.
Vitamin B3, B6 & B12 - (190mg combined) - Much like vitamin D3 treating deficiencies can boost testosterone, as these vitamins are instrumental in its production. All good inclusions, no issues here.
Chromium - 200mg - Chromium is again beneficial if it's dealing with a deficiency, so all in all a perfectly acceptable inclusion from M drive.
Ashwagandha - 600mg - 600mg is in line with the ideal dosage range for Ashwagandha, which has been shown to boost testosterone levels in healthy men as well as having been shown to reduce cortisol levels as a result makes it into a lot of stress relief supplements as well. All in all this is a good ingredient Mdrive Prime gets this completely right and it's something that we expect to see in a lot of the best testosterone support supplements.
Tongkat Ali - 200mg - Tongkat Ali is a decent ingredient, it's not always a favorite of the best testosterone boosters as it often makes way for other more effective ingredients like ginseng. That said Tongkat Ali is an effective testosterone support supplement. And similiarly to ashwagandha has stress relief benefits to boot. [5]
Green Tea Extract, Coffee Bean and some filler - 50mg - So, there's nothing wrong with green tea extract or coffee bean in a supplement overall. It's just not really got much point in a testosterone support supplement, especially in such small doses. And as for the berry filler, this is all pretty pointless. We'd have rather seen some boron as this only requires 10mg to be effective. It would have added in an effective ingredient and still kept the price and amount of capsules that you have to take down.
DHEA - 5mg - The ingredient is totally fine, the only issue is that studies that show it as being effective dosed 10X as much as is included in the m drive prime formula. [6]
Bioperine - 5mg - This is common in a lot of supplements, it helps your body process nutrients more effectively. Nothing much to say about this one.
