Tribulus Terresteris is ecologically pure.

Tribulus is a natural aid to help impotence, low libido, and male infertility.

Clinically proven effective in enhancing energy and vitality.

Helps build muscle and strength.

Tribulus Terrestris is safe to use and it's not a hormone.

In bodybuilding, Tribulus is used for its testosterone boosting properties more than anything else. Studies have shown over 50% increase in testosterone levels when taking Tribulus Terresteris. We all know testosterone helps build muscle and strength, that's why some pro athletes use steroids and other prohormones to enhance performance.

You'll be happy to hear that Tribulus Terrestris is NOT a hormone! It works completely different from Andro and DHEA. Tribulus increases testosterone through increasing lutenizing hormone (LH) in your body. LH tells your body to produce testosterone. Why is this beneficial? Simply because Tribulus is not a hormone supplement, it merely works within the body's natural limits helping you achieve muscle and strength.

Much tribulus research and studies have been conducted, and all have shown positive benefits of supplementing Tribulus Terrestris, and almost no adverse effects. Here are some findings on Tribulus supplementation:

A study done with healthy individuals taking 750mg of tribulus per day showed a 72% LH increase, and a 41% increase in testosterone.

In a study conducted with 20 males and females, 75% of the participants had increased endurance, 80% had increased libido and sexual performance, and 95% of the females reported no PMS symptoms.

A study conducted with 200 males suffering from impotence showed increase in LH and testosterone levels after supplementing Tribulus. The study also found a increase in sperm production.

Tribulus terrestris is a plant that grows in many tropical and moderate areas of the world. Many different cultures have used it for a number of conditions. For example, the Greeks used Tribulus terrestris as a diuretic and a mood-enhancer.

Indians used it as a diuretic, antiseptic, and anti-inflammatory. The Chinese used it for a variety of liver, kidney, and cardiovascular diseases. The people of Bulgaria used Tribulus terrestris as a sex enhancer and to treat infertility. Recently, eastern European athletes and strength champions have used it as well. High quality, nutrient rich Tribulus terrestris is available from Intimate Attitudes.

Tribulus terrestris is a testosterone enhancer. Studies show that it works very well when used with DHEA* and androstenedione.** It increased testosterone levels in a different way, however, than either DHEA or andro do. Instead of being a testosterone precursor, it leads to the production of the luteinizing hormone (LH). When LH levels are increased, the natural production of testosterone also increases. LH is a hormone that also deals with sex drive. Now one can understand why it has been used to increase fertility and help with impotence. Laboratory animal studies found that Tribulus terrestris increased sperm count as well as motility levels after taking it for 30 days.

*DHEA is an acronym for the hormone dehydroepiandrosterone (now you know why people use the acronym.) It is the most plentiful androgenic hormone produced by the adrenal glands and it is quite important to body builders and athletes because in men, around 50% of all testosterone is derived from it, while women derive over 75% of their estrogen from it and nearly 100% after menopause. Levels of DHEA are quite high at birth, drop during childhood, and peak during young adulthood. The levels continue to drop throughout life.

**Androstenedione (Andro), pronounced andro-steen-dee-own, is a direct precursor to the hormone testosterone. It was the first prohormone to really break into the sports nutrition industry. Although andro was discovered in 1935, it wasn’t until scientists learned that it became testosterone in the body in the 1950’s that it was seriously considered. Androstenedione is naturally produced in men and women, and is found in Scotch pine trees. What? Scotch pine trees? Yes, and this simple fact classifies it as a dietary supplement.

This is a good supplement for men and women to increase their sex drive. According to Bill Phillips, editor of Muscle Media, "...Tribulus terrestris can significantly "lift" performance in the bedroom." Anyone who wants to increase muscle growth (bodybuilders, athletes, etc.) would be wise to try stacking Tribulus terrestris with DHEA and andro. Since Tribulus terrestris is not an essential nutrient, it is not associated with deficiency.

Most experts recommend experimenting with 750 to 1,250 mg per day, divided among meals, As for side effects, about one in ten people have associated some gastrointestinal upset with taking Tribulus terrestris. Taking food with it can minimize these effects if you are that one in ten.
