AlphaSteel Official Website › AlphaSteel Ingredients
Ingredients, from the labelAlphaSteel names seven actives and prints a milligram figure for each, per two-capsule serving: saw palmetto berry, wild yam root, sarsaparilla root, nettle leaf and boron chelate at 20 mg apiece, tongkat ali at 10 mg of a 100:1 extract and horny goat weed at 8 mg of a 10:1 extract. No caffeine or other stimulant is on the panel.
Below: each active, the extract ratios, the research amounts and the capsule itself.
Each card carries the amount exactly as the Supplement Facts panel prints it for one serving of two capsules, the part of the plant it comes from, and one line on why it is in a men’s formula.
Serenoa repens, berry
20mg
A palm-berry extract, studied mostly for urinary symptoms in older men.
The berry of the American dwarf palm, long used in men’s formulas. A safety review of 40 reports found its side effects mild and similar to placebo.
Dioscorea villosa, root
20mg
A root extract carrying diosgenin, a plant steroid-like compound.
Dioscorea villosa root carries diosgenin, a plant steroidal saponin, which is why it turns up in hormone-balance formulas.
Smilax glabra, root
20mg
A traditional root tonic with a long history and a short clinical record.
Smilax glabra, the Chinese sarsaparilla root, has a long record in traditional Chinese medicine that two recent reviews catalogue.
Urtica dioica, leaf
20mg
Stinging-nettle LEAF, not the root most prostate studies use.
Urtica dioica, printed with its plant part. Naming the part lets a reader match the ingredient to the research on that same part of the plant.
amino acid chelate
20mg
A trace mineral, printed as the weight of its amino acid chelate.
A trace mineral. In eight healthy men, a week of daily boron raised free testosterone and lowered estradiol in blood samples.
Eurycoma longifolia, root
10mg
The headline root, and the most concentrated extract on the panel.
From 100:1 extract, equivalent to approximately 1000mg of dry Tongkat Ali powder. A 2022 meta-analysis of five randomised trials found higher total testosterone in men taking Eurycoma longifolia extracts.
Epimedium sagittatum, herb
8mg
The icariin herb: a PDE5 finding in the lab and a heart-rhythm case report.
From 10:1 extract, equivalent to approximately 80mg of dry Horny Goat Weed powder. Known for icariin; single doses of a standardised extract were well tolerated in 30 healthy men.
Two capsules deliver all seven: 30 servings to a 60-capsule bottle, so one bottle is a month of the full formula.
The seller’s listing art and the printed panel agree on the formula. Every name drawn around the bottle is a row on the AlphaSteel Supplement Facts panel, and every row on the panel appears in the art, so a buyer never has to reconcile two different ingredient lists.
Read the art for the names and the panel for the numbers. The capsules in the picture are drawn red to match the label.
One milligram of this extract stands for about 100 mg of dried root. That is how the label turns 10 mg into “approximately 1000mg of dry Tongkat Ali powder”. It is a statement about the raw material that went in.
One milligram stands for about 10 mg of dried herb, so 8 mg becomes “approximately 80mg of dry Horny Goat Weed powder”. Epimedium is valued for its prenylflavonoids, of which icariin is the best known.
How much of a plant’s active compounds survived extraction. Two 100:1 extracts made by different methods can differ, so the extract weight is the fair number to compare with research.
The tongkat ali trials in men used standardised root water extracts and reported the extract weight taken each day. That makes the 10 mg figure, not the dry-root equivalent, the one to set beside them, and the dose analysis on this page does exactly that.
Five of the seven actives sit at 20 mg each, against research amounts that run into the hundreds of milligrams. Here is every row, side by side.
| Ingredient | What studies used | What the AlphaSteel label prints |
|---|---|---|
| Tongkat ali | 100 to 400 mg a day of a standardised root water extract, for 5 to 12 weeks (Henkel 2014; Ismail 2012; Chinnappan 2021) | 10 mg of a 100:1 extract, which the label equates to about 1,000 mg of dry root |
| Horny goat weed | Single doses of 370, 740 and 1,110 mg of a standardised Epimedium extract in a safety and absorption study of 30 healthy men (Teo 2019) | 8 mg of a 10:1 extract, which the label equates to about 80 mg of dry herb |
| Saw palmetto | 320 mg a day of berry extract for a year (Bent 2006), and up to 960 mg a day for 72 weeks (Barry 2011), in men with urinary symptoms | 20 mg of berry extract |
| Nettle | The prostate research is on nettle ROOT (Chrubasik 2007); the one controlled trial of a freeze-dried nettle preparation found here ran for one week, in hay fever (Mittman 1990) | 20 mg of leaf extract |
| Wild yam | The one controlled trial found applied a wild yam cream to the skin for 3 months in menopausal women (Komesaroff 2001) | 20 mg of root extract, taken by mouth |
| Sarsaparilla | No controlled trial of the root extract in men was found; the reviews cover traditional use and laboratory work (Wu 2022) | 20 mg of root extract |
| Boron | 10 mg of elemental boron a day for one week in eight healthy men (Naghii 2011); the adult upper intake level is 20 mg of boron a day (NIH ODS) | 20 mg of boron amino acid chelate, the weight of the chelate rather than of the boron in it |
Research figures come from each paper’s own abstract, re-read on 22 September 2026: Henkel 2014, Ismail 2012, Chinnappan 2021, Teo 2019, Bent 2006, Barry 2011, Chrubasik 2007, Mittman 1990, Komesaroff 2001, Wu 2022, Naghii 2011, NIH ODS. Label figures are the panel’s. The two columns are different kinds of fact and are never added together.
“Boron Amino Acid Chelate 20 mg” is the weight of the whole compound. The boron inside it is a fraction of 20 mg, and the panel gives no elemental figure. Either way it sits under the adult upper intake level for boron set by the NIH Office of Dietary Supplements, which is counted as elemental boron.
The prostate research on stinging nettle is on the root, as the Chrubasik 2007 review sets out. AlphaSteel uses a leaf extract, so that body of work describes a different part of the plant.
The vendor’s hero scene sets the bottle among roots, fruit and spice. It is a mood picture: beetroot, grapes and cinnamon are not AlphaSteel ingredients, and the ginseng-style roots are not labelled as any of the seven. The panel is also worth reading for what it leaves out:
Below the seven actives the panel lists microcrystalline cellulose, gelatin, magnesium stearate. Microcrystalline cellulose is a plant-fibre filler that gives the capsule its fill, and magnesium stearate keeps the powder flowing on the machine.
Gelatin is the capsule shell, made from animal collagen, which matters to anyone who avoids animal ingredients. The testing and quality page reads each of the vendor’s marks against this panel.
The panel also carries the statement that the product was made in an FDA registered facility. Registration is a listing with the agency, not an approval of the product.
Seven actives per two-capsule serving: saw palmetto berry extract 20 mg, wild yam root extract 20 mg, sarsaparilla root extract 20 mg, nettle leaf extract 20 mg, boron amino acid chelate 20 mg, tongkat ali 10 mg of a 100:1 extract and horny goat weed 8 mg of a 10:1 extract. The other ingredients are microcrystalline cellulose, gelatin, magnesium stearate.
The label says the 10 mg comes from a 100:1 extract, equivalent to approximately 1,000 mg of dry tongkat ali powder. That describes how much dried root went into the extract. The trials measured extract weight, so 10 mg is the figure to compare with them.
No. The panel lists no caffeine, no guarana, no synephrine and no other stimulant. The energy claim on the label rests on the botanicals and the mineral, taken daily.
Tongkat ali. It is the most concentrated extract on the panel (100:1), and its energy and vitality research in men includes a 2022 meta-analysis of five randomised trials. Horny goat weed is the second concentrated extract; the other five round out a broad men’s blend.
The panel is the formula, so read it on the bottle you receive. The current lot is ALP-26/AL-7266, and if a panel ever differs from this one, the bottle in your hand wins.
