Deep dives
Overview of Tribugen
The episode focuses on Tribugen, a specialized tribulus terrestris stack developed by Nootropics Depot. It adds complementary ingredients to enhance the motivational and energy-boosting properties of tribulus terrestris. Emil shares insights on how they selected ingredients based on beta testing to ensure efficacy and balance. The podcast hosts demonstrate their experience by trying a megadose of the product, highlighting the stimulating effects that can arise from elevated dosages.
Fenugreek and Its Aroma
Fenugreek is featured as a notable ingredient in Tribugen due to its unique aroma and mood-enhancing properties. One compound in fenugreek, sotalon, is responsible for a maple syrup-like scent that can be detected in sweat and urine. The hosts emphasize that while some fenugreek supplements can produce an immediate and intense aroma, their formulation results in a more subdued scent over time. This addition is intended to boost motivation and enhance the overall experience of the tribulus stack.
Ingredient Selection Process
The development of Tribugen involved extensive testing of various tribulus terrestris extracts, including those from Bulgaria. The hosts recount their challenges in finding a balance between effectiveness and overly stimulating effects from high-quality extracts. They ultimately selected a blend aimed at providing motivational, energy-boosting benefits without the accompanying nausea or jitteriness. This process highlights their commitment to creating a product that caters not only to bodybuilders but also to a wider audience seeking enhanced energy for daily activities.
Combining Ingredients for Enhanced Effects
The podcast reveals how combining various ingredients such as dioscoria niponica and additional components helped to modulate the effects of the stack. Initially, the team thought increasing protodiosin content would intensify effects, but they found the combination actually led to a better balance of stimulating and calming properties. Their experimentation with fenugreek and dioscoria resulted in an appealing synergy that enhanced libido and energy levels while reducing aggressive stimulation. This thoughtful ingredient layering results in a product that is both energizing and suitable for diverse users.
Personal Experiences and Insights
Throughout the episode, the hosts share their personal experiences with Tribugen, noting how the product provides motivation and mental clarity. They discuss the importance of context and environment when taking stimulants, emphasizing that having an outlet for their extra energy can lead to positive outcomes. Despite initial concerns about overstimulation, the effects of Tribugen were described as pleasantly balanced, allowing them to engage in lively discussions. Overall, their insights reveal the nuanced nature of using such supplements for productivity and performance.
Tribugen | How We Took Tribulus To The Next Level
This month, Emiel and Erika discuss the benefits of Tribulus Terrestris for energy, motivation, focus, and hormonal health. Making an effective stack takes more than just scientific research - this podcast episode focuses on the human element of stack creation, and why we spent so much time refining Tribugen until we got the effects profile just right.

How Nootropics Depot creates synergistic stacks
Each ingredient in Tribugen was selected to compliment the stimulating and motivating effects of Tribulus, and in this episode Emiel discusses the mechanisms of action that are responsible for these effects.
Before Tribugen made it’s debut, the team at Nootropics Depot tried a variety of Tribulus Terrestris extracts to find the most motivating but smooth extract that would shine as a stand-alone product. When making Tribugen, we wanted to increase the motivation benefits of Tribulus, but to smooth out the stimulation and edginess of Tribulus when taken on its own. After a year of bioassaying Tribugen, adjusting the dosages of the synergistic ingredients, and sharing the pre-released stack with friends, family and colleagues, we arrived at the finished product. If you are interested in learning more about this process, and the ingredients that make up the Tribugen stack, tune into this podcast episode!
