Tribulus Terrestris is a Chinese herb also known as Gokshura and Burra Gokhru (Ayurveda) and Bai Ji Li, Ci Ji Li, or just Ji Li (Chinese), in the Far East. The name Tribulus comes from the Latin word for trouble and refers to the plant's spiky seed pods. Caltrop, Puncturevine, bullhead, goat head or goats head, puncture vine, Mexican sandbur, and Texas sandbur are among its other English names. Tribulus is the most common penis enlargement herbal ingredient and can be found in most enlargement products.

History about Tribulus Terrestris

The Greeks used the medicinal herb Tribulus terrestris as a diuretic and a mood-enhancer. Eastern Indians used it as a diuretic, antiseptic, and anti-inflammatory. Tribulus is mentioned in ancient China and Indian Ayurvedic texts dating back thousands of years. The Chinese have used Tribulus in their Materia Medica for over 400 years and have used it for a variety of liver, kidney, dizziness, psoriasis, eczema, premature ejaculation and cardiovascular diseases. The people of Bulgaria used Tribulus Terrestris as a sex enhancer and to treat infertility.

Tribulus Terrestris Extract Dosage
Dosage: A typical dosage of 80-150 mg of tribulus per day is fairly common. If used together with Tung Saw (Tongkat Ali), Krachaidam or Butea Superba. Daily dosage of 100mg of Namdin Extract is enough.

Uses of Tribulus Terrestris

Tribulus Terrestris is used in various herbal formulas to treat headaches, eye problems such as itching, conjunctivitis and weak vision, pain relief, enhancement of the immune system, improved mood and sense of well-being, cholesterol reduction, and relief of premenstrual (PMS), menopausal symptoms in women, and nervousness making it a great menopause herb. In women, hormonal imbalances can lead to the typical unpleasant symptoms associated with PMS and menopause. It is also used to treat high blood pressure and rib pain.

Recently, eastern European athletes and strength champions have used it as well. Many athletes and bodybuilders have found Tribulus a safe and natural alternative to anabolic steroids.

Tribulus is especially helpful given the typical western diet where the liver is overburdened by too much sugar and fat. The overall effect is that Tribulus Terrestris leads to a more balanced hormonal system in both men and women. Tribulus stimulates the bile flow and breakdown of fats in the liver thus contributing to a more regular bowel pattern and effective elimination of toxins from the liver. More efficient fat metabolism can make the blood less "sticky", consequently benefiting blood pressure. Improved fat metabolism also benefits oxygenation which creates energy within the cells for use in the body.

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. No known   negative effects presently exist when Tribulus is used as a dietary supplement. Tribulus exhibits a mild diuretic effect. Using Tribulus can help to counter the vasoconstricting effects of caffeine and nicotine.

How Tribulus Works

Tribulus Terrestris contains three groups of active phytochemicals: Dioscin, protodioscin, and diosgenin. These substances have effects on sexual performance and may treat various sexual disorders, they regulate sexual energy level and strength by increasing the percentage of free testosterone level for men and they effect pregnenolone, progesterone and estrogen for women. The hormone balancing effects of Bulgarian Tribulus Terrestris for women makes this herb suitable for premenstrual syndrome and menopausal syndrome. Sterols like sitosterols or stigma substances protect the prostate from swelling and in combination with the X steroidal saponins, protect the prostate from cancer.

Steroidal saponins are currently referred to as X steroidal saponins. These X steroidal saponins effect the immune system. They have been demonstrated to possess antibacterial and anti-viral effects. Bulgarian Tribulus Terrestris may be used internally and externally to treat herpes, and virus infections such as influenza and the common cold. Tribulus terristris was found to be a rich source of calcium (Duhan et al. 1992).

Studies have shown a better than 50% increase in testosterone levels when taking the Tribulus herb. Studies show that it works very well when stacked with DHEA and androstenedione. It increased testosterone levels in a different way than either DHEA or andro. 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. Tribulus terrestris increases sperm count as well as motility levels after taking it for 30 days. This is a good supplement for men and women to increase their sex drive. Most experts recommend experimenting with 750 to 1,250 mg per day, divided among meals. A significant benefit of Tribulus is the stimulation of hormone production to a balanced level, without over stimulating the secretion of hormones. Tribulus Terrestris works by stimulating the anterior pituitary gland to release luteinizing hormone (LH), which is responsible for stimulating the testes to produce testosterone.

When scientists began studying the curative power of Tribulus, they discovered that it significantly elevates the level of several hormones: Testosterone; Luteinizing Hormone (LH) is a gonad stimulating hormone produced by the pituitary gland), Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH) and Estradiol. A significant benefit of Tribulus is the stimulation of hormone production to a balanced level, without over stimulating the secretion of hormones. When 750 mg per day of Tribulus extract was given to a total of 212 men in open clinical trials, 85% had increased libido after 30 days, and 94% after 60 days. Thus, Tribulus unquestionably stimulated sexual desire.

In another study, treatment with 750 mg per day for 60 days significantly increased sperm motility in 38 men with idiopathic oligospermia (low sperm count of unknown origin). In the same study, of 14 patients with reduced libido, 12 showed considerable improvement after 30 days (1500 mg/day), and one was slightly improved after 60 days' treatment. Libido was improved in 27 of 36 patients with chronic prostatitis. Patients who had suffered this condition for five years or more showed no improvement, yet in patients with shrunken testes and oligospermia, libido was apparently improved. A study involving healthy individuals taking 750 mg/day of tribulus terrestris evaluated hormonal responses and revealed LH increased in males from 14.38 ml/U/ml to 24.75 ml/U/ml (that s a 72% increase). The free testosterone in males went from 60 ng/dl to 84.5 ng/dl (an increase of 41%).

Trilovin

Studies have confirmed the safety and efficacy of Tribulus Terrestris, when taken as prescribed.  Case studies of Tribulus Terrestris and menopause formula, conducted over two months, involving 30 women, ages 17 to 42, had the following results: 28 of the 30 women who tested Tribulus Terrestris, using 2 to 3 tablets per day at the first indication of PMS symptoms (irritability, headaches, cramping, bloating, low back pain, etc.), found relief from most, if not all, symptoms. Relief was noted within a few hours to the end of the first day of usage. In some cases, relief of symptoms was noted by the second day.

With regular use of Tribulus Terrestris (no more than 200mg per day), the following additional benefits were reported:

• Mild to very noticeable increases in energy levels.
• Positive mood changes
• Increased libido

Those women who were involved in a regular exercise program reported significant increases in strength, endurance, and conversion of body fat to lean muscle mass.  Case studies on Tribulus Terrestris, regular formula, conducted over two months, involving 20 male and female students of a martial arts school, ages 24 to 41, had the following results:

• 75% of the test subjects noticed increases in endurance while performing push-ups and sit-ups, as well as participating in ground fight and sparring.
• 80% of the tests subjects noticed increases in libido and sexual performance.
• 95% of the women reported no PMS symptoms and an overall sense of well-being during the test period.

The recommended amount of the principal active components, the steroidal saponins, is about 115 mg (the equivalent of a 250-mg serving of a 45% Tribulus extract) two to three times a day.

Testosterone and Tribulus

Your testosterone levels begin to decline slowly but surely after the age of 35. Since testosterone plays a vital role in muscle growth, most men find that it gets more and more difficult to maintain muscle mass, let alone build it. Low levels of testosterone also make it more likely that you'll gain fat around your waist. Researchers from the University of Washington have shown that low testosterone levels are strongly linked to abdominal fat.

Not only does it affect the way you look, testosterone also affects the way you feel. Because the human brain is loaded with testosterone receptors (the parts of the brain that  respond to testosterone), your behavior is affected if testosterone levels drop too low.

Termed by some as "irritable male syndrome", the age-related decline in testosterone might explain why some men become grumpy and irritable the older they get.  When men who are unable to produce testosterone come off hormone replacement therapy, they become irritable and depressed. Their mood improves when they resume treatment. According to David Abbott, of the Wisconsin Regional Primate Research Center in Madison, "Testosterone effects have been missed. When someone gets grumpy and irritable, [researchers] try and explain it only in terms of cortisol levels and depression. They ignore the fact that their testosterone levels are probably low as well."

Although one mechanism by which Tribulus works is by stimulating LH, which in turn can elevate testosterone levels, the primary mechanism of Tribulus is to restore testosterone receptor sensitivity. In other words to enable your body to better and more efficiently utilize whatever testosterone is there. If Tribulus does elevate testosterone (in addition to making it work better), it will likely do so within physiological limits, it will not raise them to abnormal levels. Tribulus is not a prohormone but more of a secretagogue or a manager that helps with secretion.

Low testosterone levels may also be responsible for symptoms of sexual dysfunction such as premature ejaculation and low sex drive. Testosterone replacement therapy offers older men an opportunity to experience a sense of vitality and well being again.
