Label math
How much of each ingredient is in SodaPeak?
The label does not say. It prints one total, 1,200 mg per 2 capsules, and no single weights. FDA labeling rules list blend ingredients from most to least by weight (FDA labeling guide ch. IV (blends)). So ingredient number k can weigh at most 1,200 mg divided by k.
These are ceilings, not real amounts. Eight ingredients share 1,200 mg, so most of them must sit well below their ceiling. Horny goat weed is first, so it also has a floor: at least an even share, 150 mg. At one capsule a day, halve every figure: tongkat ali drops to at most 300 mg.

At a glance
What stands out in the SodaPeak formula?
The blend name
Is the Test Boost blend a testosterone treatment?
No, and there is no evidence it changes hormone levels. The words "Test Boost" name the blend; they are not a promise. Nowhere does the bottle mention testosterone, and the red badge's "Supports healthy muscle" is the sole claim. No study of SodaPeak exists.
Low testosterone is a medical diagnosis. The Urology Care Foundation says it takes two morning blood tests under 300 ng/dL plus symptoms (Urology Care: Low testosterone). If you have low energy, low sex drive or weaker erections, a blood test tells you more than any capsule. Our low testosterone guide explains the tests.
The evidence
What does research say about SodaPeak's ingredients?
The support is thin. A 2020 review of 50 "testosterone booster" products found only about a quarter of their ingredients had data showing a testosterone increase (Clemesha 2020: T-booster claims).
Saw palmetto failed to beat placebo for prostate symptoms in two NIH-funded trials (NCCIH: Saw palmetto). The body does not turn wild yam into hormones (RxList: Wild yam). Tongkat ali has the best data: small gains in one 12-week trial of standardized extract (LiverTox: Tongkat ali).
The seller's brief named six ingredients. The label lists eight, adding orchic substance and boron chelate.
Safety
Which SodaPeak ingredients need a doctor's check first?
Four stand out, mostly because of medicines.
- Horny goat weed: may lower blood pressure and slow clotting, and has heart-rhythm case reports (RxList: Horny goat weed) (MSK: Epimedium).
- Saw palmetto: not with warfarin or other blood thinners (MSK: Saw palmetto).
- Nettle root: may lower blood sugar and blood pressure and raise lithium levels (RxList: Stinging nettle).
- Wild yam and horny goat weed: estrogen-like effects matter with hormone-sensitive cancers (MSK: Wild yam).

Our take
Are the SodaPeak ingredients worth it?
They are a mixed bag. The label is complete and honest about order, but it hides every amount, so you cannot match any ingredient to a studied dose.
Strengths
- All eight ingredients printed in weight order
- A modest claim: "Supports healthy muscle"
- About $0.57 a day at 2 capsules from one bottle
Weak spots
- No amount for any ingredient
- Saw palmetto and wild yam do not do what they are often sold for
- Orchic substance is unexplained
- Not vegetarian: gelatin capsule and a glandular ingredient
FAQ
SodaPeak ingredients FAQ
What is in SodaPeak?
SodaPeak contains a 1,200 mg blend of eight ingredients per 2 capsules: horny goat weed, tongkat ali, saw palmetto, nettle root, wild yam, sarsaparilla, orchic substance and boron amino acid chelate. The capsule shell is gelatin.
Which SodaPeak ingredient is listed first?
Horny goat weed leaf extract is listed first in SodaPeak, so it is the heaviest of the eight. By label math it weighs between 150 and 1,200 mg per 2 capsules. Tongkat ali root powder comes second and can weigh at most 600 mg.
Why doesn't SodaPeak list the amount of each ingredient?
SodaPeak uses a proprietary blend, which FDA rules let a maker label with one total weight. The ingredients must still appear from most to least by weight. That order lets you work out a ceiling for each one, but not its real amount.
Which SodaPeak ingredients have the weakest evidence?
Orchic substance, wild yam and sarsaparilla have the weakest evidence in SodaPeak. The label gives no source for the orchic substance, the body does not turn wild yam into hormones, and RxList calls the idea that sarsaparilla holds testosterone a false claim.
Are the herbs in the SodaPeak infographic on the label?
Not all of them. Ashwagandha, shatavari, safed musli and black pepper are not on the SodaPeak Supplement Facts label. A brand graphic shows ashwagandha, shatavari, safed musli and black pepper, but none of the four appears in the printed blend.
Is the boron in SodaPeak over the safe limit?
The boron chelate is at most 150 mg, and the label does not say how much of that is boron itself. The NIH adult upper limit is 20 mg of boron a day. Ask a pharmacist if you take other boron.
