Who it is intended for:
- Those who practise sport

The product is a mixture of dry extracts of Tribulus terrestris, Lepidium meyeneii and zinc citrate. These substances belong to the 'Testosterone Boosters', which directly or indirectly support the physiological action of this hormone.
Extracts of Tribulus Terrestris (dry extract from the fruit, 90% w/w saponin content) are used in traditional medicine in some Middle and Far Eastern countries for their diuretic effects, to combat urinary tract stones, as antihypertensive, anti-cholesterolaemic agents and to combat angina pectoris. To these effects must be added certain actions on the sexual sphere (aphrodisiac action, increased fertility, increased spermatogenesis and libido) due to the enhanced action of testosterone by certain substances contained in Tribulus Terrestris (steroidal saponins). The increased action of testosterone, at least in males, would depend on an increase in luteinising hormone (LH) released by the pituitary gland (pituitary gland) and capable of controlling the formation of testosterone especially in the testes.
From what has been mentioned, the use of Tribulus Terrestris can support the increase in muscle mass in sport by enhancing the action of testosterone produced endogenously by the human body.
Tribulus terrestris is an important antioxidant, especially indicated for women, as it contributes to the normal functioning of the female reproductive system, in particular by normalising hormone production in the ovaries, as well as alleviating symptoms related to the polycystic ovary, increasing sexual desire in women and alleviating post-menopausal symptoms.
Zinc is an element capable of supporting the action of testosterone and insulin (as well as having an antioxidant and immune system-supporting action). Recent studies have shown a close correlation between blood levels of zinc and testosterone. The anabolic action of testosterone would depend on good zinc availability.
To support the synergy between the various components in Triboost, the root of a Peruvian plant was selected: Maca (Lepidium meyenii Walp), which only grows wild at altitudes above 3500 m. In Peru it is well known for its nutritional properties and the improvement it gives to mental and physical faculties; some studies show an aphrodisiac effect.
