With every book on herbal therapy I'm able to learn something new. Stephen Buhner's book not only refreshed what I may have forgotten, but introduced me to some enlightening efficacious therapies which may profoundly enable me to assist the many men, that seek my naturopathic service, who are afflicted with loss of virility and sexual vitality as well as those who have compromises in prostate health.

Additionally, Buhner backs up his research with credible scientific data, in a concise and understandable manner, that any reasonably intelligent person could comprehend.

The Natural Testosterone Plan: For Sexual Health and Energy
By Stephen Harrod Buhner
Let's face it; we no longer live in the same world our parents did. Food additives and preservatives, environmental pollutants, pharmaceuticals--the list seems to go on forever with things that affect our natural balance. It was encouraging to see that there are naturally occurring phytoandrogens (plant medicines that contain male hormones) that counteract the effects of testosterone depletion. This book is superbly laid out in easy-to-understand language to get you back on track, complete with dosages, possible herb/drug interactions, and availability.Rahasya Poe, Lotus Guide, www.lotusguide.com

This was a well written book by an established expert on natural remedies for encreasing male sexual health, and general energy levels.

I was impresed by the factual information and test reports, on the benefits of various natural products, and that of his own personal use.

More importantly I have used his protocol and remedy, for increasing male sexual health and energy, for the last three weeks, and can testify that they work.

I would recommend this book to any man with similiar problems.

Nothing better than natural! I'm 73 now, so I can tell you that it's never too late. After reading books like Seasoned Romance, Book One and Dr. Ruth's Sex After 50: Revving up the Romance, Passion & Excitement! (The Best Half of Life), it seemed absolutely necessary, if I wanted to become a better man and lover, that I had to attack the problems that seem to come with aging. Fitness is such a huge part of what has happened to me. Eating better is another major component. The Natural Testosterone Plan: For Sexual Health and Energy has added another big piece of the puzzle. I'm glad I made the decision to get started. In so many ways, my life is better now than it was six months ago when I started making the right choices. I can't tell you what it does to be able to look in the mirror and see the difference!

For those who are interested in Alternative Medicine and facilitating the bodies own healing mechanism, this is an excellent book. It is full of nutritional information which build and strengthen a man's chemistry without resorting to drugs. I highly recommend it.

if you want to know how to increase and maintain your testosterone levels and understand the functions and properties of the supplements including proper dosages, contraindications and sources to purchase from this is the best publication that i've read. the information is accurate and the writing style is easy to read and understand.

I am a 59 year old male that has read a lot about hormones. I thought the book by Eugene Shippen "The Testosterone Syndrome" was the best so far, but this book surpassed my expectations. It would be nice to see another update from Shippen, since it has been many years since it was written. I was curious as to why no references were made to Shippen from Morgentaler? Having said that, it was easy to read and was fascinating in that he was there where the research was done that had been accepted fact for so many years. He clearly refuted the old theory and I salute him for having the guts to do so. Many doctors are opening their eyes now to a new frontier in treating middle aged men. Any guy that is thinking of feeling better and adding life to his years, it is a must read.

This book is not what I thought it was. All it tells is how to raise your T levels by herbs and supplements not what I was looking for.

Every once in a while as a resident of the NW I give in to the notion that alternative this or herbal that might make sense. I got this thinking that perhaps there was some herbal or alternative approach to speeding up recovery after workouts and such.
The book is decent enough in going over supplements and what sort of boost they might provide. The problem is that the central premise of all supplement use is just wrong, and the book does nothing to show that things might be different with testosterone.
The body maintains equilibrium levels of hormones. If you increase your intake of them the body simply breaks it down and excretes it. If you increase your intake of precursors, the body simply doesn't use them and they are quickly broken down and excreted as they build up. In short you can have an effect on levels in the body over the very short run and thats it.
