HOW AND WHY IT WORKS
Dry extract from Bulgarian Tribulus terrestris
The most potent Tribulus extract standardized to 60% furostanol saponins (protodioscin) > 1800 % general saponins. The properties of the genuine Bulgarian Тribulus extract are due to the presence of steroidal saponins of furostanol type (60% determined as protodioscin). [1, 2] The steroidal saponins are active substances, which support the natural production of sexual hormones (androgens and estrogens),[3, 4, 5] influence positively the normal function of central nervous system [6, 7], and are defined as active components with anabolic character.* They work on the normal testosterone levels in the male organism, naturally supporting the hormonal balance and the normal function of prostate, without affecting their functional mechanism and without side effects.* [2, 3, 4, 8, 9, 10]
In women they work on the normal levels of pregnenolone, progesterone, estrogens, which may help support the physical and psycho-emotional health of a woman. * [5, 11, 12]
The protodioscin [1, 2, 13] supports the natural production of luteinizing hormone from the adenohypophysis and the normal sex hormones levels.*[3, 4, 14] It helps support a positive nitrogen balance and improves the protein synthesis, including the one in the muscles.* This supports the body’s abilities and endurance in cases of physical and mental overwork.* [2, 15]
The genuine Bulgarian Тribulus extract is very suitable for bodybuilders and athletes in the preparatory and the active period, as well as in the period of recovery after physical exhaustion from exercise. * [15, 16, 17]
Dry extract from Leuzea Carthamoides
The properties of the Leuzea extract are due to the purified active ingredient – 95% beta-ecdysterone. [18] Ecdysones show muscle growth properties and help the body resist the damaging effect of stress. * [18 – 24]
Phytoecdysteroids stimulate protein synthesis [18, 19, 22, 24, 25], and in doses of 5-10 mg per kg body weight, they are considered protein stimulants, promoting fast muscle growth and strength.* [19, 21, 22,24, 26, 27] As polyhydroxy sterols, they naturally affect the metabolism of carbohydrates and nucleic acids, help the normal glycogen synthesis and increase the content of high energy phosphate compounds.* [25, 27] This promotes the growth of the skeleton muscles, positively influencing the endurance, reflexes and physical condition of the athletes.* [19, 21, 22, 24, 25, 27]
A number of studies show the anabolic activity of beta-ecdysterone, as well as its harmlessness and safety for use during hard training or physical overwork.* [20 – 23, 28, 29] The beta-ecdysterone positively influences the normal function of the central nervous system.* [18, 25, 30] In professional sport it is used for achieving physical and psychical stability, without any side effects on the cardiovascular and the immune systems.* [18, 25, 30]
Dry extract from Ginkgo biloba
Our extremely effective and concentrated extract from the leaves of Ginkgo biloba is standardized at 24% ginkgo flavone glycosides. The extract has become highly popular among the sports fields, due to its outstanding benefits [31 – 39]:
- it is beneficial for blood and oxygen flow in the body and can thus support concentration and sports performance*
- its antioxidant activity aids for removing the free radicals from the muscles, that will otherwise break them down*
- increases muscle growth and supports recovery after intense exercise*
- naturally supports the metabolism*
Plenty of studies also suggest that Ginkgo biloba extract works on the normal cortisol levels, and supports the normal blood pressure levels, especially during workouts.* [31, 32] The combination of Ginkgo biloba extract and L-arginine boosts its action even more, promoting fast muscle growth and strength, as a result of the supported blood flow to the muscles.* [40]
Dry extract from Piper nigrum
The Piper nigrum extract in VemoHerb® Muscle Kick is standardized to the active ingredient piperine (min. 95%). Numerous studies suggest that when only 5 mg of such concentrated Piper nigrum extract is combined with the other ingredients, it can increase the absorption of those ingredients by 30-2000%! * [41]
L-Arginine
L-Arginine is considered a semi-essential amino acid, which means that the body produces it naturally but in limited quantities, and it can be supplemented additionally through the diet.* L-Arginine is very popular in sports nutrition due to its nitrogen retention properties, because nitrogen is a key factor in the muscle protein synthesis.* L-Arginine is a precursor of nitric oxide, and it is known that nitric oxide participates in the vasodilation (the dilation of blood vessels).* Nitric oxide helps to increase blood flow into the muscles which is the main factor that produces pumps during exercise.* Recent research suggests that nitric oxide is directly connected with muscle building.* Latest data also suggests that L-arginine supports the natural production of Creatine in the body.* It is also shown to support the utilization of oxygen in the body, due to the increased vasodilation.* [42, 43]
