Let’s get scammed!
-or-
Let’s get yoked!
That’s essentially the decision here between Nugenix vs. Ageless Male.
Tough decision, right? Unfortunately, considering that over 2 million+ bottles of Ageless Male, the notorious T-booster scammers of the Interwebs, have been sold, too many bros are still being tricked by these bastards.
That’s why we organized this match-up, to show how badly scammers get their ass beat when pitted against worthy opponent.
Let’s get down on it:

Round 1: Formulas
This round would be like David vs. Goliath if David were a jerkwad jagaloon and God liked Goliath instead. Substitute David with Ageless Male and Goliath with Nugenix.
Nugenix targets Mature Man T-Drops.
Have you checked out our 2016 ed. Best5 T-Booster Supplements, doods? Because Nugenix damn near tops the list, nearly sharing the top spot with an undefeated B5 T-boosting warrior.
Regardless, the reason Nugenix earns your attention can be summed up in two basic bulletin points:
- D-double-A, baby. Marching in with a heavy dose of our #1 T-booster, D-Aspartic Acid, Nugenix hits hard—and follows up that hit with a couple more B5 favorites: Mucuna Pruriens & Boron.
- Potent-Ass Sex-Enhancers. The remaining herbal extracts are some of the best for enhancing sex & performance and potentially offer additional male hormone support.
All-in-all, Nugenix is a mature formula for mature men. It’s no secret that as men get older, their T levels drop. Many T-boosters claim to remedy the situation; Only a few actually follow through with that claim.
Nugenix reverses age-related T-drops successfully, which is made all the more impressive when you consider its modest 8 ingredient formula. This formula is jam-packed (which we’ll explore further in the next 2 rounds), giving each serving of Nugenix a massive blow to the nuts.
And we mean that in the best way possible.
Ageless Male hits your nuts in the worst way possible.
And by “nuts” we mean your wallet.
Which, in this day and age, is almost the same thing for many men…
Products like Ageless Male and people like the manufacturers who craft products like Ageless Male give the T-boosting industry a bad name. Odds are if you’re already familiar with this formula, then you’ve had to deal with some dickhead customer service reps and possibly cancel a credit card.
Ageless Male has a bad rap of scamming its customers—using autoship tactics to make unauthorized charges, dishonoring satisfaction guarantees. The complaints against this company go on, and we haven’t even gotten to the formula, yet.
It’s bad.
For the record: Ageless Male’s formula doesn’t have bad ingredients.
But it very well might have one of the worst T-boosting formulas on the market.
What you get in an Ageless Male pill is ZMA + Fenugreek, two bona fide athletic-enhancing T-boosters backed by fairly credible science, drowned in a ton of filler ingredients: calcium carbonate, microcrystalline cellulose, stearic acid, croscarmellose sodium, etc. etc.
When you compare the scam reports with the small amounts of potential T-boosts, this formula just doesn’t seem worth it—and it definitely doesn’t stack up to the likes of Nugenix.
Round 1… Nugenix Ultimate Testosterone Wins.
Round 2: Dosages
Credit where credit’s due: Ageless Male shows its dosages and so does Nugenix.
None of that prop blend BS here.
But here’s where our biggest concern with Ageless Male comes from: The dosages suck.
All of them, from each individual dosage of the ZMA (Zinc-Magnesium-B6) ingredients to the 300 mg Fenugreek, which is half the clinically-supported dosage found to “maintain” testosterone levels.
In other words, if you want boost T with Ageless Male, you’ll have to double down on the daily dosage—which will run you double the cost.
Compared that with Nugenix, which supplies top-notch dosages across the board (check out that phat phunkin’ 3,000 mg DAA, baby). The only questionable dosages are the ones for Mucuna Pruriens & Tongkat Ali, but their high-potent extract forms make this not an issue.
The judgment call is easy here.
Round 2… Nugenix Ultimate Testosterone Wins.
Round 3: Ingredient Quality
Alright, we see you there, Ageless Male, picking your shit up with that premium branded Testofen Fenugreek extract. Basically, if you’re going to supplement Fenugreek, then you’ll want something along the lines of Testofen, which supplies 50% Fenuside™ branded saponins. Ageless Male has this qualified brand of Fenugreek.
Yet, Nugenix also supplies Fenugreek standardized to 50% saponins (and its Fenugreek dosage is more than double that of Ageless Male’s).
Additionally, Nugenix’s other ingredients are looking pretty solid, with only 3 that could be improved: DAA, Nettle Leaf, & Maca Root. But they’d only be minor improvements. Ageless Male also only has 3 ingredients that could be improved, but these are 3 of a total of 4 ingredients… That’s not good.
Round 3… Nugenix Wins.
Round 4: Price
Ageless Male | VS. | Nugenix | ||
1 Bottle (30-day supply) | $49.95 | 1 Bottle (30-day supply) | $89.99 | |
Price Per Capsule | $0.83 | Price Per Capsule | $0.75 | |
Price Per Serving | $1.66 | Price Per Serving | $3.00 |
Round 4… Ageless Male Wins.
Round 5: JUDGEMENT
The only reason to choose Ageless Male over Nugenix: It’s cheaper.
And we say that never-minding the fact Ageless Male is surrounded by countless reports of screwing over its customers, costing its fanbase upwards of hundreds of dollars per consumer, and being dicks about it over the phone whenever some calls in to get their money back.
Honestly, if it weren’t for that, we’d probably be more lenient on Ageless Male here, considering that at least their ingredient choices aren’t bad (we said “choices”; not “quality”). But no, they have to go along and be dicks while selling a sub-par formula, so whatever. Sucks to suck.
Regardless: Nugenix wins because Nugenix is a winner. It kicks ass and shits money. That’s why it has earned a place on our Best 5 Testosterone Supplements list for both 2016 and 2017. We give it a full recommendation to all you T-seeking doods.
In the Ageless Male vs. Nugenix fight, the winner by freaking KO is…
NUGENIX ULTIMATE TESTOSTERONE
Darrell says
what if i take two regular nugenix free testosterone booster and one ageless male in the morning the one ageless male in the evening?
Ryan says
All I can say is: Prepare for that Fenugreeky smell coming out of your sweat.
As far as stacking the formulas go, I don’t see any major overlap between these supplements, so you’re likely fine to go by that schedule. Having said that, we’ve never concurrently supplemented these formulas, so we can’t say for sure. Either way, best of luck.
