Tribulus Terrestris Stacks and Tribulus Side Effects

Tribulus Terrestris - Testosterone's Best Friend

If you've read our other Tribulus Terrestris article, you'll know that Tribulus is not a hormone, but rather, it boosts your testosterone by increasin the level of luteinizing hormones (LH) in your system. LH stimulates the secretion of sex steroids from the gonads for both males and females. In males testes, LH binds to receptors stimulating synthesis and secretion of testosterone. In females, theca cells in the ovary are stimulated by LH and secrete estrogen.

With this in mind, should you supplement Tribulus? The simple answer is, yes. Tribulus Terrestris is not a hormone, and does not directly affect the hormones in your body. By this, Tribulus works within your body's natural limits helping you maximize your muscle and strength gains.

There are varieties of Tribulus Terrestris available.

Tribulus Stacks

Because Tribulus Terrestris is such a neutral and beneficial supplement, it's often stacked with other supplements - mostly prohormones to maximize results. One of the most popular stacks: Tribulus, DHEA, and Androstenedione. This stack has been popularized by the exceptional results users experience.

Androstenedione is a prohormone that directly converts into testosterone, and DHEA is 2 steps away from testosterone. Read about prohormones here.

In fact, this Tribulus-DHEA-Androstenedione stack has become so popular that Optimum Nutrition developed its Andro Stack 850, which is one of the more popular prohormone -Tribulus supplements. Read our Andro Stack 850 review here.

Tribulus Side Effects

Tribulus has been used for quite a long time, and no studies have found any adverse side effects of Tribulus. Again, one of the major benefits of Tribulus is that it's not a hormone and only helps increase testosterone by increasing the level of Luteinizing Hormones (LH). The only adverse side effect experienced is an upset stomach, which can be helped if taken with food.

Update:

Although the above listed stack of Tribulus, DHEA, and andro was a popular stack, (while this article has been written for quite some time). There are better stacks you can get, and better prohormone solutions like Ergopharm 1AD.

A very nice all natural stack is using a Tribulus Terrestris with a ZMA supplement. I've used this stack many cycles with nice results, and no side effects - other than some increased acne. Read about tribulus and ZMA stack here.
