Pentagon Mandates Testosterone Screenings for Service Members

Delray Beach, Fla., On September 4, 2026, Nutronics Labs, a veteran-owned nutritional supplement company, hailed Secretary of War Pete Hegseth and the Pentagon for mandating annual testosterone deficiency screenings as part of the health assessments for America's service members.

Dr. Rick Lentini, the founder of Nutronics Labs, expressed approval, stating, "What the Secretary did was simple, and it was overdue, he made a man's testosterone something worth measuring." He elaborated on the issue, noting that over the past three decades, the company has received calls from men in their thirties and forties who described feeling "flat, soft, tired, and with no drive." Lentini explained, "Almost none of them had ever had the number checked."

According to an analysis of National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey data covering 4,045 American males aged 15 to 39, mean total testosterone levels declined from 605.39 ng/dL in 1999-2000 to 451.22 ng/dL in 2015-2016, a reduction of about 25% over 16 years (Lokeshwar et al., European Urology Focus, 2021). A 2007 study in the Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism documented an age-independent, population-level decline, indicating that today's 60-year-old starts from a lower baseline than his father did at the same age.

Lentini continued, "A man today is competing against a baseline that has been sliding for forty years. That is not a personal failure. But you cannot fix a number you have never seen, which is exactly why this order matters." The company is encouraging all men to follow the Pentagon's lead and ask their physicians for a testosterone panel, learn their numbers, and retest them.

Roy Jones Jr., boxing legend and Nutronics Labs brand ambassador since December 2025, agreed, stating, "A lot of people today feel tired, run-down, or not quite like themselves, and they don't realize there are powerful, natural ways to fight back and reclaim their youth. I've always looked for solutions that help me stay strong, stay sharp, and keep my edge. I stand by these world-class products by Nutronics Labs."

Nutronics Labs' men's line is built on a proprietary blend of clinically backed ingredients, including IGF-1, fenugreek, NO2, tribulus terrestris, and longjack. Fenugreek, one of the few botanicals proven in randomized placebo-controlled trials to significantly increase total testosterone, is enhanced by pairing it with the company's refined IGF-1 line for comprehensive support. These ingredients are not delivered via standard pills or powders but through the company's advanced Liposome Delivery system, which shields them from digestive acids and enzymes, achieving an absorption efficiency of 98.6%. This is a stark contrast to the 20-30% typical of traditional pills and powders.

Lentini emphasized, "Everybody in this category sells one half of the equation. They sell you something for testosterone and stop there. We spent thirty years perfecting the other half. Put our IGF-1 line together with Man's Edge® and you have the ultimate natural stack for testosterone support on the market, no needles, no prescriptions, no clinic."
