Tribulus terrestris
Earns its inclusion in many Ayurvedic formulae for the unique protection it affords the Renal and urinary system and is effective for calculous and micturition problems. This relative of the Tumbleweed seen blowing along desolate roads in semi desert regions is also a cardiotonic, muscle relaxant and lowers cholesterol levels. It is a cooling tonic that increases the quality of semen and is indicated for impotence. Favoured by sportsmen and women involved in field athletics and other strength activities this tough wiry annual has recently gained considerable importance in muscle development and condition for competition. Tribulus is particularly good for gout a problem very much on the increase in the modern world. In folk medicine it is also used for rheumatism and bowel problems.
