What does Tribulus do?
Tribulus is used by bodybuilders and athletes to raise testosterone levels. Although the pharmacodynamics of Tribulus have not been established in human subjects, Tribulus is thought to support healthy hormone profile by boosting testosterone levels via stimulation of the anterior pituitary gland. This stimulation is thought to promote the production and secretion of Leutinizing Hormone (LH)[5], which can lead to increases in unbound, free-testosterone levels.
Tribulus contains steroidal saponins, alkaloids, and flavanoids[8], but it is the protodioscins content of Tribulus that is believed to be responsible for its apparent ability to boost testosterone levels and support health hormone profile function. Research has shown that
Tribulus extract, standardized for 20% protodioscins, was effective at stimulating testosterone increases in study subjects.
In addition to stimulating LH and possibly increasing testosterone levels in some subjects, Tribulus may be an effective treatment for male and female impotence, as well as promoting healthy blood pressure and healthy cholesterol profile.[7]
