NOW Sports Tribulus Review

The answer is, we really are not sure if it is effective or not. The daily serving of the Tribulus in this supplement is less than what we believe to be effective or at least, effective enough to see amazing results. In our opinion, you would have to take 3 capsules daily to reach the recommended daily serving of an effective dose which is 1500 mg (500mg x3). On a positive note, we liked that the Tribulus is derived from the fruit and aerial parts of the plant, so we would like to believe that is referring to the leaves and stem as well (even though this is not stated by the manufacturer). Research shows that utilizing the entire plant to create a formula is essential for efficacy.

Apart from the low dosage of the Tribulus per daily serving, another point that we were disappointed with is the purity of the saponins. The saponins are standardized to only 45% in this supplement, which is significantly lower than our top choice. Whilst you may see some results, it is likely to be much slower than a product that contains saponins standardized to 95% given that this is the'active' ingredient in Tribulus. Moreover, there is no addition of BioPerine^® which to us is a lost opportunity and may mean you would need to wait longer to see any real positive benefits.

Bottom Line: With so many options for consumers out there on the market, we would love to have seen these guys try a little harder. It doesn't take a lot to increase the standardization of the saponins, or to add BioPerine^®, and we are left wondering why they didn't? Could it be a cost issue? Or did they simply not do their homework about what makes a great Tribulus product versus an incredible one? Who knows. Either way, we feel that they could have invested much more in what we would call a mediocre product.

Is NOW Sports Tribulus Safe?

There’s no reason this product wouldn’t be safe to use. It contains Tribulus derived from the aerial parts of the plant and is all natural. We found no evidence of any reported side effects, but you should always consult with a healthcare professional to be sure.

NOW Sports Tribulus Review Summary

This product has the beginnings of a promising product as suggested by its many positive reviews. However, when we dug under the surface into the actual formula we found a few anomalies that disappointed us. Starting positively, we liked that they used Tribulus that has been derived from all the aerial parts of the plant (stem, leaves and fruit), which we know to be the most effective. However, the daily serving is quite low (500 mg per capsule) so you would need to take 2-3 capsules a day for it to achieve an effective dose. Another disappointment was that the saponins are standardized to only 45% which is super low compared to other products on the market. When relying on just one ingredient to be effective, we feel you would want to make it as effective as possible which leaves us wondering why the manufacturer wouldn’t add in an ingredient such as BioPerine^®. Such a simple ingredient with tremendous potential to help the main ingredient optimally absorb and bring about results faster. The last point that we found amis was that there is no money-back guarantee which is a red flag for us in terms of confidence this manufacturer has in their products' ability. Taking all these into account, we had to place this product in our #2 spot.
