Orchic Extract Explained: What It Is, What RxList Says and What SodaPeak's Label Lists
Orchic extract is made from cattle testicles. RxList says marketers imply it is a source of testosterone but there is no evidence to support the claim, that evidence is insufficient to rate effectiveness and that there is not enough reliable information to know if it is safe. SodaPeak lists orchic substance seventh, with no amount.

What it is01
What is orchic extract?
An extract made from cattle testicles, used by some men to maintain testicular function.
RxList says marketers imply it is a source of testosterone, and that there is no evidence to support this claim (RxList, Orchic Extract). SodaPeak's panel says orchic substance. It does not say the animal source, the part or an amount.
RxList notes02
What else does RxList say?
That evidence is too thin to rate and safety is not known.
| Topic | Note |
|---|---|
| Testosterone claim | No evidence to support it |
| Effectiveness | Insufficient evidence to rate |
| Safety | Not enough reliable information |
| Contamination | Concern about diseased animal parts; no reported transmission |
| Pregnancy, breastfeeding | Avoid |
| Dose | None established |

Where does it sit on the label?
Seventh, with a ceiling of 171.4 mg per serving and no stated amount.
The ceiling is arithmetic (21 CFR 101.36 (eCFR)). The orchic substance page has the detail. With no dose established and no source named, a lab report matters more here than for the plant names.

- Heart and chestChest pain, shortness of breath, a racing or irregular heartbeat, or fainting. Call 911 for chest pain with trouble breathing.
- Allergic reactionHives, swelling of the face or throat, or trouble breathing after a capsule: call 911.

Why does sourcing matter?
Because contamination is the concern RxList names, and FDA warns that supplements can hide unlisted drugs.
FDA's pages on tainted sexual enhancement and bodybuilding products explain the wider risk (FDA, Tainted Sexual Enhancement). This site has no test that finds a problem with SodaPeak, and no test that rules one out.
