Men's Health & Vitality

Reviewed by the Nimbera editorial team · Last updated May 2026

Men's vitality encompasses testosterone levels, sexual health, urinary function, and energy. Natural supplements have been studied for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), libido, testosterone support, and general vitality with varying degrees of evidence. Lifestyle factors remain the most evidence-backed approach.

When to see a doctor

Difficulty urinating, blood in urine or semen, unexplained fatigue, sudden changes in libido, testicular lumps, or significantly low testosterone confirmed by blood test all warrant medical evaluation.

Ashwagandha

ingestible
A 16-week double-blind, placebo-controlled crossover RCT (PMC6438434, n=57) found ashwagandha supplementation produced a 14.7% greater increase in testosterone compared to placebo (p=0.010). NCCIH confirms limited evidence that ashwagandha for 2-4 months may increase testosterone and sperm quality.

Saw Palmetto

ingestible
A 2023 systematic review of 27 studies found saw palmetto provides little or no benefit for BPH symptoms when administered alone. Two NIH-funded clinical trials testing both standard and elevated doses showed no improvement in urinary symptoms.

Maca Root

ingestible
A 12-week double-blind, placebo-controlled RCT (PubMed 12472620) in healthy men aged 21-56 found improvement in sexual desire beginning at 8 weeks with both 1500 mg and 3000 mg doses. Critically, this effect was independent of testosterone or oestradiol levels, suggesting a non-hormonal mechanism for libido enhancement.

Zinc

ingestible
A systematic review of 38 papers (8 clinical + 30 animal studies; PMID 36577241) concluded that zinc deficiency reduces testosterone levels and zinc supplementation improves testosterone in deficient individuals, with a positive correlation between serum zinc and total testosterone in males.
