TRIBULUS 250 is a non-hormonal dietary supplement for men and women. The herb Tribulus Terrestris
has been found to be beneficial in providing balance and support of the physiology and function of both sexes.
Tribulus, traditionally used as a liver tonic, also helps by providing stamina and improving general endurance and well being.

TRIBULUS 250 is now listed on the Australian Register of Therapeutic Goods.
The listing is for the relief of MENOPAUSAL and PMT (Pre-menstrual tension) symptoms. 
TRIBULUS 250 provides a normal balance for the hormonal system resulting in optimum function. This is far more preferable to the intake of hormones from an outside source (natural or artificial), which further erodes the function of the hormonal system. The great benefit of assisting a return to balance for women with premenstrual or menopausal symptoms is that these symptoms are indicative of imbalance in the system. When the hormonal system is nourished to balance, symptoms of imbalance disappear.
Many products, natural or chemical, have been offered for the relief of these symptoms but only those that restore the natural balance of the body address the cause of the problem rather than the symptoms. Products that do not promote the natural balance should be viewed cautiously. Using products that impact on your hormonal system to reduce symptoms but not balance, actually exacerbate the problem, especially over the long term. Your body has very sensitive feedback loops by which it controls precise levels of hormones in the body.
If, for example, the body determines the level of  certain hormones are to high it will not produce that hormone until the correct balance is attained. Weak function or a weak system results. Using TRIBULUS 250 assists hormonal function and promotes natural balance in the system.

REVOLUTIONARY HERB - TRIBULUS TERRESTRIS
Written by Dr. Robert Fraser, Researcher and Herbalist
TRIBULUS TERRESTRIS, commonly known as "Puncture Vine" or Caltrop Fruit, is a herb that has been used for centuries in Europe for hormone insufficiency in men and women. It has been used in the treatment of liver, kidney and urinary tract disease and all types of skin disorders by Chinese herbalists.
TRIBULUS TERRESTRIS is the closest and strongest natural alternative to synthetic anabolic hormones. This non-hormonal dietary supplement has been used by athletic, sporting and weightlifting teams around the world in the past ten years with apparent great effect.
When scientists began studying the remarkable curative power of TRIBULUS TERRESTRIS, they discovered that it significantly elevates the level of several hormone: Testosterone, Luteinizing Hormone,
(LH is a gonad stimulating hormone produced in the pituitary gland) Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH) and Estradiol.
Clinical studies on Tribulus, conducted at the Chemical Pharmaceutical Institute in Sofia, Bulgaria, showed improved reproductive functions, including increased sperm production and Testosterone levels in men.
Among women, Tribulus increased the concentration of hormones including Estradiol, With testosterone being very slightly influenced, thereby improving reproduction function, libido and ovulation. A significant benefit of Tribulus is the stimulation of hormone production to a balanced level, without over stimulating the secretion of hormones.
The fruit and root of TRIBULUS TERRESTRIS contain pharmacologically important metabolites like phytosteroids, flavonoids, alkaloids and glycosides. These active components have a stimulating effect on the immune, sexual and reproductive systems, with improved muscle building, stamina and endurance.
Other positive changes observed in a number of cases were a reduction in cholesterol, enhanced mood and well being. Tribulus exhibits a mild diuretic effect.
The liver is a major synthesizer of hormones. They are synthesized from cholesterol, so a herb such as Tribulus that has a stimulating effect on the liver, will have a major influence on cholesterol and other products of the liver. Tribulus's role as a liver tonic is very important - Breaking down the cholesterol and fats that inhibit healthy liver function. The cholesterol and fats are converted to hormones and energy resulting in increased performance and stamina. This role of improving liver function, stamina and endurance is particularly beneficial to athletes and bodybuilders. No longer do they have to look to synthetic steroids  for increased performance.
No adverse effects to the central nervous system or cardiovascular systems were noted in any of the clinical studies, no toxicity and no deviations in blood count occurred. No known negative effects presently exist when Tribulus is used as a dietary supplement.
For male athletes and bodybuilders, an increase in testosterone levels by Tribulus will promote protein synthesis and positive nitrogen balance as well as faster recuperation and recovery from muscular stress.
TRIBULUS therefore has a positive effect on strength and stamina.
