History
In ancient Greece
and
India, Tribulus Terrestris was used as a physical rejuvenation tonic. In China, it is widely used, to this day, as a component of therapy for a number of
conditions affecting the liver and kidney as well as the cardiovascular and immune systems. The role of Tribulus Terrestris in Easter 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 culminating in the 1980s with a formula for improving physical and sexual performance. The most
noted outcome of this research was the success of the Bulgarian weight lifting team which stunned the world in Olympic competition.
The development of a proven formula for Tribulus Terrestris, along with the rise of a market economy in Eastern Europe, has rapidly expanded the use of
this herb over the last decade. Tribulus Terrestris is now sold as a standardized pharmaceutical preparation for muscle strength and sexual potency
throughout Europe, the Middle East, and Asia. |
