Tribulus Terrestris

What Huberman said

Huberman reviews studies of tribulus for libido: in one study of post-menopausal women libido did not increase although free testosterone did, while another study reported a significant increase in libido. He says more studies are certainly needed.

Doses, as he worded them

  • “750 milligrams per day divided into three equal doses”[1]

    regimen used in studies he describes (120 days)

Quoted, not prescribed. Talk to a doctor or pharmacist first if you take medication, are pregnant or have a health condition.

Cautions he mentions

  • Whether or not it actually raises libido to a meaningful degree isn't clear.[1]
  • General caution he gives before these libido supplements: you absolutely have to check with your physician.[1]
