    The ingredients for Tribestan include 250mgs of tribulus, but also lots of other stuff in there too. But the regular tribulus teres. has 500mgs per capsul... hmmm, I guess i'd rather take the regular tribulus since i'd take less pills per day... anyone alse know about or tried Tribestan ?

    Tribestan is a concentrated form of Tribulus...
    It is much stronger then Tribulus... Not even
    close to the same thing...

    Like comparing straight Ephedrine vs. Ephedra...

    Tribestan is non-hormonal drug of plant origin with a stimulating effect on sexual function. Its active components are steroid saponins of furostanol type, isolated from the plant Tribulus terestris L. It restores and improves the male libido sexualis, improves and prolongs erection. It has a stimulating effect on spermatogenesis by increasing the number of spermatozoa and by improving their motility. Elevates the testosterone level.
    It improves libido sexualis in females, has a slight stimulating effect on ovulation, a favourable effect on vasomotor symptoms in natural and postcastration climacterium, as well as on subjective complaints of insomnia, general anxiety, irritability and apathy.

    Females - the treatment is strictly individual and depends on the severity of the disease. The dose is usually 1-2 tablets, 3 times daily, during meals.

    Thanks bro...

    I love this stuff so I had to post it...
    I'd use it year round if I could afford
    going through a box every 2 weeks...

    Gets costly after awhile at $32-$35 per box...

    NICE, thanks fellas, Tribestan it is then........ how about both ?? Tribestan has 250mgs of Tribulus per tab, or I could get regular tribulus that contains 1000mgs tribulus per tab.... But I have a feeling that I'll be better off with Tribestan because it is more known and used, rather than some unknown company with high dosages. Good posts again fellas.

    I am aware that most GNC's just got in Tongkat Ali which is sold as a box labeled as Red Kat.

    Well the chinese say this stuff generates so much natural testosterone in your body that if you take the Tongkat Ali and tribulus at the same time, you will need to also take Nolva, Clomid or Arimidex because the Tongkat/tribulus combination can cause you to have 10 times your natural levels of testosterone in your body and its more then enough to cause profound amounts of estrogen production.

    Test patients that took Tongkat Ali, exhibited gynomastia, night sweats, oily skin, however some side effects like disruptions to your cholesterol levels, liver damage and high blood pressure are much less effected as compared to injected testosterone. ALso even though people on tongkat Ali have shown blood levels of testosterone ranging from 1200 to 2400 (imagine I come in with test levels at 230) there is no shut down to the HTPA because the HTPA is actually producing all this testosterone, and there is no post cycle therapy needed. When discontinuing tongkat ali, within 5 days testosterone levels drop back to normal and continue at these levels.

    Essentially Tongkat Ali is believed to be nearly as effective as HCG , taken orally, it does not cause desensativity to LH, but it fools your HTPA into thinking massive amounts of testosterone is needed and therefore begins producing test like crazy. It is also believed tongkat also fools the liver into NOT removing excess testosterone from the system which sometimes allows your testosterone levels to increase higher then possible on 600 mg testosterone cypionate injections.
