Tribulus for boosting Testosterone
Testosterone deficiency, is also known as hypogonadism, is quickly emerging as a medical concern. Epidemiologic studies demonstrate an association between low levels of testosterone and a variety of cardiovascular, metabolic and cognitive disorders including genetic abnormalities.
Tribulus Terrestris is a traditional herb that has been used in India and China for centuries in the treatment of erectile dysfunction and associated problems. Tribulus Terrestris stimulates the body to release lutenizing hormone, which then prompts the testes to produce more testosterone.
A mild degree of nausea and stomach pain (and someone may experience one or the other of these side effects, or both together) is the most commonly reported side effect experienced after taking Tribulus extract. If you experience this side effect, it can in most cases be prevented in the future by taking the extract along with food.
Another potential side effect which has been documented is gynaecomastia. This is an exceedingly rare side effect which involves an enlargement of the breasts in men and could be due to some sort of hormone-regulating function of either Tribulus or another ingredient in the supplement that the man who reported this side effect happened to be taking. There is no data available on what, if any, other supplements the man used regularly, so this may or may not have been due to this particular extract. All the same, men should be aware of this possible side effect as unlikely as it may be to occur
