Tribulus Terrestris is nature’s best-known and best selling testosterone booster. Tribulus Terrestris is based on an extract bearing the same name, and optimized with zinc.
The male sex hormone testosterone is one of the most important hormones used in body building. A high level of testosterone is associated with an improvement in regeneration, reduction of fat, and with increased sexual desire, drive, stamina and strength, all of which can be easily achieved with Tribulus Terrestris.
The combination of Tribulus Terrestris has great effects on hormone and especially testosterone levels, depending on individual characteristics of the athlete but generally more effective than with FenuPlast or Testo Stack.
What can I expect from Tribulus Terrestris?
Tribulus Terrestris may, among other things, improve regeneration, training, fat reduction and help strengthen muscle.
Tribulus Terrestris is not a Createston all-in-one muscle builder and does not provide significant amounts of protein, carbohydrates and other essential building substrates (creatine, free amino acids, etc.), so the overall effects depend on your eating habits and the use of additional supplements. Take pre-and probiotic diet supplements to stimulate the effects of Tribulus Terrestris.
Muscle growth is possible only with an adequate and constant supply of amino acids. So stock up with fast proteins (especially in the morning and before and/or after training) and slow proteins and with further supplements to support Tribulus Terrestris and avoid muscle degradation.
Function and Impact:
Tribulus Terrestris is extracted from herbal plants, which includes steroidal saponins. In contrast to products from fenugreek extracts, Tribulus Terrestris contains less of the testosterone precursor, diosgenin and more of protodioscin, which is one of the reasons why it has different properties to the other two supplements.
Saponins in Tribulus Terrestris, especially protodioscin strengthen the immune system and stimulate secretion of luteinizing hormone (LH), which in turn stimulates the testosterone synthesis. In men, saponins in Tribullus Terrestris increase the amount of free testosterone, which stimulates muscle growth and fat loss, increases spermatogenesis (power) and improves strength, endurance and drive. In women, the hormonal system is optimized with regard to the ratio of estrogen to testosterone. So women who take Tribullus Terrestris benefit from female-slim figure and heightened sexual pleasure.
For a healthy hormonal balance we added trace elements of zinc and extracts from saw palmetto to even more stimulate the effect of Tribullus Terrestris.
Scientific studies have shown that some effects of Tribulus Terrestris are contradictory. Although they observed great results in some cases (41% more free testosterone in 5 days in a Bulgarian study), others observed no significant effects of Tribulus Terrestris. Recent theoretical and practical findings indicate that the success rate varies from individual to individual, depending heavily on the quality of the human intestinal flora – i.e. the activity of intestinal bacteria, since different bacteria work differently with saponins from Tribulus Terrestris, you get different results. The good results in the Bulgarian study could be due to the popular non-processed supermarket yoghurts, containing “Bulgarian” bacteria which improve the intestinal flora.
