Tribulus terrestris extracts alleviate muscle damage and promote anaerobic performance of trained male boxers and its mechanisms: Roles of androgen, IGF-1 and IGF binding protein-3



5. Conclusion

Taking 1,250 mg capsules containing TT extracts did not change muscle mass and plasma levels of testosterone, DHT, and IGF-1, but significantly alleviated muscle damage and promoted anaerobic performance of trained male boxers, which may be associated with the decrease of IGFBP-3 rather than androgen in plasma.
