Huntington Labs Tribulus Terrestris First Look:

We came across a product from Huntington Labs not too long ago which was packed full of ingredients including the Tribulus as seen here in this solitary ingredient testosterone booster.

However, that ‘Male Enhancement’ product didn’t work too well due to a number of factors but mainly ineffective ingredients and a proprietary blend which concealed the real breakdown of how much of most of the ingredients were included.

This meant that trace amounts could have been included while the rest being bulked up with a nondescript agent.

So what is different about this supplement?

Well, instead of a plethora of ingredients and a proprietary blend we have just one, well known and often touted ingredient known as Tribulus.

The overall look of the product does look like that found in a traditional health store that would offer natural remedies alongside organic nuts.

This is because it comes in a brown colored bottle as seen in apothecary stores of ye olden days.

However, people trust products that look like this and as a result, buy them.

SKIP TO THE END: Take a look at our Top 3 boosters for something effective.

Ingredients:

Tribulus – Once again, the old tribulus raises its ugly head. The problem is that because this has been touted about for so long as a bit of a miracle plant extract used by the mysterious Eastern Bloc Olympic Athletes during the Cold War people have started to believe the hype and it is an easily recognizable ingredient the ill informed will have heard about down the gym.

The issue is that it has not been scientifically proven to raise testosterone levels in any shape or form.

In fact, in studies using elite professional Australian rugby players as participants Tribulus did not produce the large gains in strength or lean muscle mass that many manufacturers claim can be experienced.

Avoid like a medieval plague if you are looking for muscular gainz.

Dose:

Up to 2 caps per day which will provide a dose of ineffective and unproven Tribulus which is not ideal.

This provides 1300mg which is a considerable amount of nothingness.

4 pills per day are what is recommended by the best testosterone boosters as it prevents peaks and troughs of the ingredients being utilized by the body.

Not that it matters with this product, you may as well stick the caps in your ears down the gun range.

Effects:

I think the study on the elite Australian professional rugby players tells all of the effects we need to know.

Yes, if you have not read the piece above regarding the test of Tribulus on professional athletes let me tell you now and to just reiterate it offered no benefit whatsoever.

Those pesky Russians were lying to us then and the lie continues many years after the Cold War. Who would have thought it, eh?

Negatives:

Let me be blunt.

The studies confirm that Tribulus does not affect hormone levels when it has been tested on sports players.

There’s is little else you or I needs to know.

It doesn’t work. Yet the product is still being sold.

I’m not sure you would buy a boat if it continually sank and the studies proved it was no better at floating that a brick..?

Huntington Labs Tribulus Terrestris Conclusion:

This does not have any proven ingredients that you need in a testosterone booster, such as Zinc, B6, B12, D-Aspartic Acid, D3, Fenugreek, K2 or Oyster.

So what does it offer to the wise sports supplement consumer?

Well I guess the bottle is great for keeping shirt buttons in, or a small collection of screws but overall at $15 it is an expensive and not entirely practical storage solution.

The scientific studies also prove that it is not an effective nor practical way of heightening your levels of testosterone either.
