What does the Horsewood blog cover?
The Horsewood blog takes one hard question per post and answers it straight. Each post prints the doses people took and says where the label comes up short.
Tongkat Ali at 10 mg: What a 100:1 Extract Really Means
How 10 mg of a 100:1 extract becomes a 1,000 mg label figure, and how it compares with trial doses.
Saw Palmetto, Nettle and Wild Yam in Men’s Formulas: What the Evidence Says
Why prostate herbs sit in sex supplements, what saw palmetto trials found, and why wild yam is not DHEA.
Male Enhancement Ads: Lab Coats, Logos and Other Red Flags
Countdown timers, borrowed logos, unnamed doctors and paid press releases, and how to read past them.

How are Horsewood blog posts written?
The Horsewood Daily editorial team writes every post under one set of rules. The rules stay the same whether the answer helps Horsewood or hurts it.
- Every claim has a source. For example, the tongkat ali dose range comes from a published meta-analysis (Leisegang et al., 2022).
- Doses sit side by side. The label amount goes next to the amount studies used.
- Gaps get named. When a fact is missing, the post says “not published.”
- No cure talk. Horsewood is a supplement, not an ED or low-T treatment, and the posts never treat it as one.
Each post carries a medical-review slot that stays blank until a named, qualified person signs off. Read about our medical reviewer.
