What is Tribulus Terrestris Powdered Extract (PE) 40%?

Tribulus Terrestris, also known as “puncture vine,” is a plant that can be found in moderate and tropical climates in the US, Mexico, India, China, and other countries in Eastern Europe. It grows in tropical environments around the world, and is particularly abundant in India, Pakistan, and Sri Lanka. Tribulus is extracted from the plant and becomes Tribulus Terrestris Powdered Extract to make nutritional supplements. People from the Middle East and India have been using Tribulus for centuries to cure conditions like dizziness, erectile dysfunction, and headaches, among others.

Tribulus has had a history of medicinal use in Europe, India, and China for thousands of years. Its traditional usages are as rich and varied as the cultures that employ them; it has been recommended for treatment of water retention, depression, liver, kidney, and heart disease, and is reported to have antiseptic and anti-inflammatory properties. Tribulus terrestris has also long been valued for its ability to stimulate libido and treat infertility in both men and women, and modern research indicates that this belief may be well founded.

What is Tribulus Terrestris PE used for and who uses it?

Tribulus has earned its popularity among athletes and people who train everywhere because it has been shown in clinical studies to significantly increase both strength and stamina. Tribulus indirectly increases testosterone levels by raising blood levels of another hormone, LH or luteinizing hormone, a hormone produced by the pituitary gland which plays a critical role in regulating natural testosterone production.

Terrestris increases production of luteinizing hormone (LH), a hormone produced naturally in the body that has a direct effect on testrosterone levels and sex drive. Laboratory studies reported that Tribulus terrestris increased sexual activity as well as sperm count and motility in animals. Athletes that wish to increase strength and build muscle mass often combine Tribulus terrestris with DHEA and adrostenedione supplements, a method known as “stacking.” Studies have shown that taking these three substances together is an effective means of raising testosterone levels. Tribulus Terrestris has long been used to treat a variety of serious and non-serious medical conditions, so all persons in good health may benefit from using Tribulus Terrestris as a dietary supplement.

Sexual effects of puncturevine (Tribulus terrestris) extract (protodioscin): an evaluation using a rat model
Apart from its claims for improvement of sexual functions in men, the puncturevine plant (Tribulus terrestris: TT) has long been considered as an energizer and vitalizer in the indigenous system of medicine. Sexual behavior and intracavernous pressure (ICP) measurements were taken in rats to scientifically validate the claim of TT [containing protodioscin (PTN)] as an aphrodisiac. The weight gain and improvement in sexual behavior parameters observed in rats could be secondary to the androgen increasing property of TT (PTN) that was observed in our earlier study on primates. The increase in ICP which confirms the proerectile aphrodisiac property of TT could possibly be the result of an increase in androgen and subsequent release of nitric oxide from the nerve endings innervating the corpus cavernosum.

Aphrodisiac properties of Tribulus Terrestris extract (Protodioscin) in normal and castrated rats
Tribulus terrestris (TT) has long been used in the traditional Chinese and Indian systems of medicine for the treatment of various ailments and is popularly claimed to improve sexual functions in man. Sexual behaviour and intracavernous pressure (ICP) were studied in both normal and castrated rats to further understand the role of TT containing protodioscin (PTN) as an aphrodisiac. Adult Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into five groups of 8 each that included distilled water treated (normal and castrated), testosterone treated (normal and castrated, 10 mg/kg body weight, subcutaneously, bi-weekly) and TT treated (castrated, 5 mg/kg body weight, orally once daily). Compared to the castrated control, treatment of castrated rats (with either testosterone or TT extract) showed increase in prostate weight and ICP that were statistically significant. There was also a mild to moderate improvement of the sexual behavior parameters.These results were statistically significant. It is concluded that TT extract appears to possess aphrodisiac activity probably due to androgen increasing property of TT (observed in our earlier study on primates).

Thehormonal effects of Tribulus terrestris and its role in the management of male erectile dysfunction – an evaluation using primates, rabbit and rat
Hormonal effects of Tribulus terrestris (TT) were evaluated in primates, rabbit and rat to identify its usefulness in the management of erectile dysfunction (ED). TT extract was administered intravenously, and blood samples were analyzed for testosterone (T), dihydrotestosterone (DHT) and dehydroepiandrosterone sulphate (DHEAS) levels using radioimmunoassay. In primates, the increases in T (52%), DHT (31%) and DHEAS (29%) at 7.5 mg/kg were statistically significant. In rabbits, both T and DHT were increased compared to control. In castrated rats, increases in T levels by 51% and 25% were observed with T and TT extract respectively that were statistically significant. TT increases some of the sex hormones, possibly due to the presence of protodioscin in the extract. TT may be useful in mild to moderate cases of ED.
