    Help... Tribulus products!!

    I am trying to bulk up and also trying to stay away from steroids coz I think it's still too early for me ( starting lifting 8 months ago ) and all I am using is ptn. , creatine and multi V...

    My question is : WILL TRIBULUS HELP ME TO PUT SOME GOOD MUSCLES ON ???

    And also I think I am prone to gyno .. Will it worsen that ??

    And what is the best brand ?? Some say Vitrix , Tribosten , Tripix ... etc.

    Could anyone help me here ?? Does it worth a try??

    Thank you guys.

    I took Vitrix after taking Haladrol-50 to try and get my body making its own testosterone agian. I thought it works pretty well. I really didn't lose any mass after coming off the Haladrol-50. Plus I felt it help get me a little more amped before my workout when I took it with 200mg Caffiene or any other common energy stack. So I'd say it's worth it if you absolutly dead set on staying away from all the pro-hormone type supplements. But only if you already have all the protien, and creatine you need and you have the money to blow. You might want to look into an NO type product for packing on a couple of pounds. No2 worrks well and NO Xplode is awsome. They will pump all that protien and creatine into your muscles, plus you diffenetly notice increased muscle size after about 6 days. They call it the perpetual pump or something like that. Holy s**t I'm long winded. Hope I helped.

    tribulus will not raise test or LH levels.

    It can improve libido and erectile response (NO effects and dopaminergic binding)

    The aphrodisiac herb Tribulus terrestris does not influence the androgen production in young men.Neychev VK, Mitev VI.
    Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry, Medical University, 2 Zdrave str., Sofia-1431, Bulgaria. [email protected]

    OBJECTIVE: The aim of the current study is to investigate the influence of Tribulus terrestris extract on androgen metabolism in young males. DESIGN AND METHODS: Twenty-one healthy young 20-36 years old men with body weight ranging from 60 to 125 kg were randomly separated into three groups-two experimental (each n=7) and a control (placebo) one (n=7). The experimental groups were named TT1 and TT2 and the subjects were assigned to consume 20 and 10 mg/kg body weight per day of Tribulus terrestris extract, respectively, separated into three daily intakes for 4 weeks. Testosterone , androstenedione and luteinizing hormone levels in the serum were measured 24 h before supplementation (clear probe), and at 24, 72, 240, 408 and 576 h from the beginning of the supplementation. RESULTS: There was no significant difference between Tribulus terrestris supplemented groups and controls in the serum testosterone (TT1 (mean+/-S.D.: 15.75+/-1.75 nmol/l); TT2 (mean+/-S.D.: 16.32+/-1.57 nmol/l); controls (mean+/-S.D.: 17.74+/-1.09 nmol/l) (p>0.05)), androstenedione (TT1 (mean+/-S.D.: 1.927+/-0.126 ng/ml); TT2 (mean+/-S.D.: 2.026+/-0.256 ng/ml); controls (mean+/-S.D.: 1.952+/-0.236 ng/ml) (p>0.05)) or luteinizing hormone (TT1 (mean+/-S.D.: 4.662+/-0.274U/l); TT2 (mean+/-S.D.: 4.103+/-0.869U/l); controls (mean+/-S.D.: 4.170+/-0.406U/l) (p>0.05)) levels. All results were within the normal range. The findings in the current study anticipate that Tribulus terrestris steroid saponins possess neither direct nor indirect androgen-increasing properties. The study will be extended in the clarifying the probable mode of action of Tribulus terrestris steroid saponins.
