Tribulus
Terrestris : "An Ayurvedic Diuretic and Aphrodisiac"
|
|
| |
| |
One
of the most important nutrients our bodies seem to need
a lot of is potassium. Much is lost through daily work
and exercise - two hours worth of physical labor will
cause the body to sweat off about 600 milligrams of
this mineral. And the high salt content in many of our
foods - the typical American diet contains about 5,000
milligrams of sodium every day depletes even greater
amounts of potassium. It is a well established medical
fact that we need more of this nutrient than we may
realize.
This is where Tribulus terrestris, or
small caltrops root, comes in. This perennial trailing
vine is native to India and parts of the African continent.
The ancient Greeks recognized it as a useful diuretic,
while the Chinese understood that its aphrodisiac
properties nearly equated those of ginseng. Tribulus
root has large quantities of potassium in it.
Potassium's role in the body isn't to
be taken lightly. It promotes a regular heartbeat;
assists in muscle contraction; regulates the transfer
of nutrients to cells, such as oxygen to the brain
and calcium to the nervous system; and, along with
sodium, regulates water balance in the body.
The advantages to using Tribulus terrestris
on a regular basis are these: (1) It is readily available
and inexpensive; (2) It is safe to use; and (3) You
only need one supplement to accomplish a number of
biological functions: strengthen kidneys; improve
sex drive; reduce hypertension; remove cramps; and
prevent stroke. Tribulus terrestris has become a commonly
used herbal supplement by professional and amateur
body builders.
