Plant Description

Folklore, Myths and Legends
History and Traditions
historyNative to India, the role of Tribulus Terrestris in Eastern European folk medicine for muscle strength and sexual potency led to two decades of formal (though secret) government-sponsored studies at the Chemical Pharmaceutical Research Institute in Sofia, Bulgaria. According to these studies, the herb seems to encourage the production and recepion of androgens including testosterone, which plays an important part in increasing libido. The hormone balancing effects of Bulgarian Tribulus Terrestris for women makes this herb suitable for premenstrual syndrome and menopausal syndrome. Tribulus Terrestris has been also been used as an effective anabolic product in athletic training and development. Another noted outcome of this research was the success of the Bulgarian weight lifting team which stunned the world in Olympic competition. They have been demonstrated to possess anti-bacterial and anti-viral effects. Bulgarian Tribulus Terrestris may be used internally and externally to treat herpes, and virus infections such as influenza and the common cold.
