Product Description:
Tribulus (Tribulus terrestris) is a plant that grows in the Mediterranean and in subtropical and desert regions around the world, including India, Vietnam, China, Spain, Mexico, and Bulgaria. This is particularly well-adapted to warm, dry regions. It got its nicknames "puncture vine" and "devil's thorn" from the spikes that cover its fruits.
Active Components
Scientists believe that saponins and flavonoids in tribulus are responsible for the effects of this plant. Of these, the steroidal saponin protodioscin is the most important one. Extracts of tribulus are usually standardized to contain a certain percentage of saponins in the form of protodioscin.
Other active components found in the tribulus plant include:
