Tribulus Terrestris Supplement Review and Information

What is Tribulus Terrestris?

Tribulus Terrestris is a vine plant that grows in moderate and tropical climates in certain parts of North America, South America, Eastern Europe, India and China.

So it’s just a plant?? Well…yeah! – But the Tribulus plant has historically been used by people from around the world to promote health, increase muscle size and strength as well as supporting a healthy libido.

Not bad for just a simple plant eh?

How Does Tribulus Terrestris Work?

Tribulus Terrestris is known for being a natural Testosterone booster.

Testosterone is obviously a highly anabolic (muscle building) hormone so if we can increase it’s production naturally, this can only be a good thing for our muscle building and muscle sparing efforts.

It’s still unclear exactly how Tribulus Terrestris extract exerts its effects. However, scientific research has suggested several possible mechanisms of action.

The most popular conclusion is that it works indirectly by stimulating LH (leutinizing homone) which basically ‘tells’ the Leydig cells in the testes to produce more testosterone.

Supplemental Tribulus Terrestris products contain steroidal saponins, alkaloids, and flavanoids – its protodioscins (This is starting to sound more like an episode of Star Trek than a supplement!) content is believed to be responsible for its effects on hormone, muscle building / fat loss and sex drive.

Clinical research suggests that Tribulus may also support healthy blood pressure and healthy cholesterol profiles that are already in the normal ranges.

Who Would Benefit Most From Tribulus Terrestris?

Due to this plants reported benefits, bodybuilders and athletes have used Tribulus Terrestris dietary supplements to boost energy and performance levels. This is achieved through its ability to promote healthy hormone function.

This natural enhancement in hormone levels would also equate to increased muscle mass and ability to burn fat for those looking to build muscle fast or those who want to alter their body composition.

Having said that, anybody could benefit from supplementing with Tribulus – I can think of worse things than having an increased sex drive and ability to more efficiently build muscle + burn fat!

What Are the Recommended Doses?

No optimal dosing protocols have been established or advised. The product label can provide directions on dose.

Doses usually range from around 250mg – 1500mg though. Be sure that your product contains at least 10% or more Protodioscin (the active part that raises testosterone).

Any Side Effects?

Whey protein is safe – We consume protein on a daily basis

Human research has established that Tribulus Terrestris is safe and free of side-effects, however, it should be noted that the common side effects of having increased testosterone levels are things like acne and for those prone to it, slight aggression.
