Tribulus Terrestris

Tribulus Terrestris is a highly potent plant that is often used in many domains, from medicine to body building. As with every supplement, we need to get the effects of Tribulus inserted in the general context of all the other supplements and we must deal with its properties considering all the conditions from below. First, we have to consider each individual’s bio-type (corresponding to the four main bio-types and their main combinations). Secondly, we need to have a look at real feeding (that one currently adopted and the ideal one for those bio-types). The third step is to consider the psycho-physical attributes of the subject (under real "or" imaginary "stress"...) Last but not least, each good fitness program should look at the construction of the psycho-neuro-endocrine system of immunity and energetic mosaic of the subject.

Only after having considered the four base points, can we begin to formulate true and efficient training and supplement needs and possibilities. These should be highly personalized so that they function seriously and they do not disappoint. An example: the cerebral bio-type has a higher necessity, more than high bio-types, of personalized dosages of Tribulus Terrestris and also needs numerous supplements of volume enhancing, hydrating and anti-catabolic aid. For other body types, the liquid stasis with high dosages of glutamine and creatine will prove less beneficial. Adding the Tribulus Terrestris supplements has to be applied progressively.

One of the other effects of Tribulus Terrestris is that it increases male libido. The plant has been used as a libido enhancer for hundreds of years, and Tribulus Terrestris still works today! However, the main usage of the plant is that of a fitness supplement, so we will insist mostly on this part. Getting back to the different body type responses to Tribulus Terrestris supplements, we will stop on its effects on the hard gainer (the ectomorph). The hard gainer can see some of the best benefits of Tribulus Terrestris as it helps him or her burn energy more efficiently while developing muscle cells at a higher rate of speed.

Every plant has one season, a timetable of collection and one suitable zone of very precise cultivation in order to raise the content of "the" active principle to the maximum. That discovery was made by mistake in India, when it was also found out that the conservation of Tribulus Terrestris demands specific techniques; if they are not respected, the active principles of the plant can deteriorate. The standardized modern extract of Tribulus Terrestris "guarantees" that the content of the active principle is homogenous in all the produced supplements.

The Tribulus Terrestris can be standardized, to 20%, 28% or to 40%. The main active elements are enhancers for sexual and muscular purposes, and the most powerful element of Tribulus seems to be the protodioscina. Currently, protodioscina is not standardized and guaranteed, but most body building supplements do contain this active substance. It is known that it favors the true digestion or the absorption of other nutrients that are essential for the body. All in all, Tribulus Terrestris is a useful addition to any diet. However, the ones that benefit most from it are those active and engaged in demanding physical activities.
