In this review, we take a look at KRK Supplements Tribulus Terrestris. Made with 100% pure and natural ingredients, this product contains Tribulus terrestris in order to increase energy and stamina, as well as to speed up muscle recovery post-exercise. We were interested to see whether this formula contained the amount of Tribulus necessary to deliver its claims.
When we analyzed the ingredients in these Tribulus pills, we found many positive aspects. This product contains 1000 mg of Tribulus terrestris and does not contain a proprietary blend. This is crucial for a pure, effective Tribulus product.
We noted that while this dose is high compared to some Tribulus supplements which only contain 750 mg, it is not as high as others which contain up to 1500 mg of Tribulus terrestris.
Additionally, the Tribulus terrestris in this formula is standardized to 45% Saponins. While this is standard in many Tribulus products, it is not as high as we would have liked to see. We found other products that had double this amount.
Furthermore, there is no mention of the source of the Tribulus terrestris found in KRK Supplements Tribulus Terrestris. The superior source is widely known to be when it is extracted from the stem, leaf and fruit of the Tribulus terrestris plant. We would have liked to see what the source is for this product.
Finally, we noted that this product contains gelatin in its capsules. While this is hardly shocking, it is a deal breaker for those on vegetarian or vegan diets. One of the benefits of taking an all-natural supplement is knowing that it is sourced from plants and therefore does not contain any animal products. So it was slightly disappointing to see the presence of gelatin here.
This combination is a great start for a good formula, however, we definitely feel that it could be much better if there was a bit of a larger dose of Tribulus terrestris as well as higher standardization and a clear source in order to boost the efficacy of the product. If these are aspects that don’t bother you, then keep reading to find out more.
Is KRK Supplements Tribulus Terrestris Effective?
The manufacturer is very careful to state on its website that Tribulus terrestris is responsible for testosterone-boosting benefits, but it doesn’t say that this product actually delivers said benefits. One of the best indicators of how well this will work is the feedback from people who have used it so we turned to actual customer reviews to see what people really think about it and how well (or not) it worked for them and whether they would recommend it. Unfortunately, there are no reviews on the product site. When we looked at the Amazon reviews, we could find only 4 ratings and no written reviews.
This was not exactly what we expected to find, especially in this day and age where potential consumers rely on feedback and reviews before making a significant health purchase. It is definitely disappointing.
Is KRK Supplements Tribulus Terrestris Safe?
In general, this product is marketed as natural and safe. As always, we would advise consulting with your health care provider starting on any new health supplement.
Summary
KRK Supplements Tribulus Terrestris had the right idea by using only pure ingredients and not containing a proprietary blend in its formula. These are two aspects we look for in effective health supplements.
We like that this formula contains 1000 mg of Tribulus terrestris. Even though there are products that contain up to 1500 mg, there are many products with only 750 mg, so this is definitely on the higher end when it comes to dosages. However, for maximum potency, we would have liked to see a higher dose.
Another aspect we would have liked to see is a higher standardization of Tribulus terrestris in this formula. The amount found here is 45% which is comparable to most Tribulus supplements, however, we have seen that in the highest quality supplements, there is double this amount.
We were also searching to find the source of this supplement on the KRK Supplements’ website but to no avail. Was this product sourced from the entire plant or only part of the plant? It is unclear.
Because there are aspects of this formula that have remained questionable for us, we expected that reading reviews from consumers would alleviate our worries. Unfortunately, it leads us to more questions as there are no reviews listed anywhere. This is quite concerning and more than a little disappointing.
We do like that there is a money-back guarantee on KRK Supplements Tribulus Terrestris, however, it is only for 30 days. We usually look for a longer return period as it may take a month in order to see if a Tribulus supplement works. Additionally, returns are only valid on unopened bottles. This means consumers cannot try this product to see if it works first, which doesn’t inspire a great confidence in the manufacturer. We would have hoped to have a stronger guarantee on this product.
The final point we noticed is that this company follows the international Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) and it is manufactured in the USA. We feel that this product was almost there but would need a few tweaks to reach our prime position.
