tribulus

Sorry don't know about the 'best' brand , but well I'm fascinated by Tribulus as absolutely nobody seems to know exactly what it's doing other than it's doing something for some people.

The science on it as a test booster seems not be not positive according to couple of studies, a couple of other studies suggest there could be something going on. But this can be the case with a lot dietary supplements and even nutrition, and contradictory results are not that unusual.

Some people have suggested Tribulus may raise DHT and or estrogen or increase DHEA, but nobody knows for sure.

What we do know is this. As a libido boost it works strongly for some people. And some people (including myself) get other symptoms well above placebo with it even at fairly modest doses as well as increased libido: acne, oily skin etc. It can also cause prostate irritation in some men too. And there was some medical case of a kid getting gyno off of it. So it's doing something, the question is what ?

The other thing is the actual constituency of the product and the dose. I tried a popular brand of Bulgarian Tribulus once aimed at bodybuilders, did absolutely nothing, and this was so called big number Protodioscins', recently I tried an over the counter one from a well known health chain in Europe sold as an aphrodisiac with '40% steroidal saponins" it worked very strongly.

British gear writer Mick Hart did write an article suggesting Tribulus could be a replacement for Clomid as a PCT. I wish it were true. One of the big things that put me off serious cycles is the PCT, and there's just a few too many horror stories about Clomid and Nolva if you scratch the surface, and some articles like on this site even question whether they even do anything for restoring testicular function and testosterone and ONLY HCG is the way to go.

If tribulus worked for this it would be awesome, although the doses Hart suggests are way too high if the tribulus you get actually works.

There's also the different supplement 'Tongkat Ali' aka Longjack, which does seem to boost test as far as I know.

Sorry it's a little off topic to what you asked, but I think Tribulus is a really interesting herb that which we just don't know that much about.
 
What you're saying is unheard of, really. I always loved to stack zma with 6-oxo or nolvedex xt and around 1-1,5mg of tribulus. Take some good old creatine monohydrate, ribose, hmb and beta methoxy and get yourself ready for some serious muscle growth. ;)

Ive always seen good results from a ZMA stack. a little cheaper if you buy them seperately and take them that way.
