History and Uses:
Puncture Vine, also known as Tribulus Terrestris, has been used as a general tonic and as an herbal remedy for impotence. In recent years, Puncture Vine has developed a following among body builders and exercise enthusiasts. It is believed that Puncture Vine increases testosterone, which may be accomplished by raising the amount of LH (luteinizing hormone) that is produced by the pituitary gland. LH plays a significant role in regulating testosterone production. Puncture Vine has been used in some cultures to increase libido, especially in men, and to treat sexual dysfunction. It has also been used as a tonic to increase energy levels. Puncture Vine has been used in combination with Yohimbe Bark as an enhancer of male performance, both sexually and athletically. Puncture Vine is said to be especially effective for maintaining testosterone in individuals who are dieting or engaged in regular, strenuous exercise.
