Now, why would someone consider drinking black any power?
What are the benefits and what does it do?

I had read that Black Any Powder had some amazing benefits such as
High in absorbable protein
Rich source of Zinc
Aids in the production of energy especially before exercise

So after doing some research though I might consider Black Ant a try.
But before I did I told some others that I’m going to start to drink black ant powder before my workout

Without too much support I thought I’d do some more research:

Now I wasn’t able to find too much conventional research on Black Ant Powder.
However, what I did find seem intriguing

Polyrhachis vicina. These ants live up high in the mountains and are often found among ginseng roots.

The premiere Qi tonic of Chinese herbalism.* While ginseng is the most well-known, and a premiere Qi tonic by itself, Ant is known to be even stronger and more effective.

The nutritional consistency is that Black Ant is
A good source of Vitamins B1, B2, B12, D and E
Complete Protein Source (42-67% by mass) Contains all 9-EAA and 17 of 22 total AA
A rich source of Calcium, Phosphorus, Iron, Manganese, Selenium, Zinc and other trace elements In fact, it’s considered by some the highest amount of zinc
Naturally contains ecdysterone which is interesting.

Ecdysterone is the growth hormone of insects which is suspected to play a role in its anabolic effects.* Some research indicates that in rat studies it even acts as a muscle enhancer. Although, I was not able to find anything regarding human studies https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/arti...

Purported Benefits of Black Ant Powder Include:
Premiere energy tonic (provides direct ATP)*
Strength builder*
Double direction immune system modulation*
May build stress resistance*
Superior Liver and Kidney tonic in Chinese Medicine*
I heard it works best as a pre-workout, early in the AM. So I thought I’d give it a go.

Once again, the anecdotal stories of black ant powder are amazing. I figured it was worth dealing with the taste.

Polyrachis Black Ant becomes the # 1 Highest Bio-Available source of Zinc in the natural kingdom when concentrated in an extract form

Zinc:Benefits:
Boosts Your Immune System
Accelerates Wound Healing
May Reduce the Risk of Certain Age-Related Diseases
Zinc may significantly reduce your risk of diseases, such as pneumonia, infection and macular degeneration
Decreases Inflammation
In a study in 40 older adults, those who took 45 mg of zinc per day experienced greater reductions in inflammatory markers than a placebo group.

Let’s look at good sources of Zinc

https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/...
Alaskan crab contains 7.6 mg per 100 grams (3.5 ounces),

Oysters contain particularly high amounts, with 6 medium oysters providing 32 mg, or 291% of the DV.

One cup of sliced raw mushrooms contains about 3 percent (0.4 mg) of the daily value of zinc, according to the USDA. Kale offers roughly the same amount (0.3 mg) in 1 cooked cup.

Raw black ant powder contains 120mg-180mg of zinc per 1000 grams. Which is the highest of any food!

Ending: What does all this mean?

I’m not sure.

In full transparency, I have not taken Black Ant powder for more than three days.

In fact, I’m on my second bag and have been taking it for almost a month.

Does it make me feel better? Maybe. I certainly don’t feel worse.

Has it made me stronger?

Hard to tell. But my strength is at a high point right now.

Has it helped me with zinc?

Once again, hard to tell. Since I eat grass-fed beef at least once a week, along with shellfish and take other zinc supplements, I don't think I was in a deficient state to notice.

But for the average guys, looking to feel better, be healthier and strong - it doesn't hurt.

Now I would start with just black ant. It doesn’t work in a vacuum.

I would start with weight training and proper diet and sleep - the right supplements and then, add the Black Ant Pwd.

I hope this helps!
