If you are trying to improve your fertility and take charge of your overall health, then hardwood is definitely for you, as it supports sperm concentration, motility and sexual performance (check out the research backing this in our 'Learn' section of the website). Male fertility isn’t just an important factor in the conception process, since the state of your sperm health is a key indicator of your overall health.
Carob trees are native to the Mediterranean region and its fruits are made up of broad pods filled with seeds and pulp, all used in the production of carob extract. Carob is available in many forms, including carob powder and carob molasses, however, the cold-extracted carob is the most nutrient-filled form, used for hardwood. Carob fruit contains dietary fiber and antioxidants and is considered to be a low glycemic index food (GI of 15).
At Sloone we are obsessed with the quality and transparency of our ingredients and doing the right thing for our customers, which means third-party-testing our product and ensuring that what’s on the label is in the bottle, and nothing else. Our carob partner in Turkey is compliant with FDA’s established Good Manufacturing Practices. All that to say you won’t find a more responsible carob extract brand on the market.
On average, it takes around 74 days to regenerate new sperm from start to finish, although the actual time frame for an individual can vary. We therefore recommend taking carob for a minimum of 3 months to allow for the regeneration process to take place, and longer to maintain the overall health and vitality.
Hardwood is third-party tested for heavy metals, pesticides and additives. We are committed to creating clean products with transparency so you can rest assured only the cleanest ingredients enter your body.
While some experience physical effects of Hardwood like morning arousal, some may not. And that’s ok, because what matters is how Hardwood supports you on the inside in the process of sperm regeneration.
You can also expect a boost of energy thanks to the antioxidant-rich nature of carob.
Hardwood is made of 100% cold-extracted carob - fruit from the Mediterranean-native tree, so your body recognizes it as food, making it easier to absorb, as opposed to many synthetic supplements on the market.
Carob naturally has a strong smell, just like you'd expect from real fruit. While there are plenty of supplements with perfect colouring and smell, that's simply not us, since we do not use synthetic nutrients or a chemical process.
While we recommend taking a tablespoon of hardwood in the morning before food, you can also ease into it and add it to your morning coffee, tea or smoothie.
