About the Product
Evolus-95 from HSN's SportSeries line is a dietary supplement in vegetable capsules based on dry extract of Tribulus terrestris L. fruit with a 20:1 extraction ratio and standardized to 95% steroidal saponins, supplemented with Zinc (zinc citrate), Selenium (L-selenomethionine) and Vitamin B6 (pyridoxine hydrochloride). Tribulus terrestris is a herbaceous plant with a wide geographical distribution, with a history of secular use in Ayurvedic medicine, traditional Chinese medicine, and in Middle Eastern and North African cultures to support physical vigor, sexual function, and hormonal balance. Each daily dose of 2 capsules provides 2000 mg of Tribulus 20:1 fruit extract (equivalent to 40 g of native fruit), of which 1900 mg are active steroidal saponins, making Evolus-95 one of the Tribulus products with the highest concentration of saponins available on the market. Vegan, gluten-free, and non-GMO. Manufactured in Spain in an IFS certified laboratory.
Benefits
Exclusive Tribulus terrestris fruit extract: the part of the plant with the highest concentration of saponins: HSN exclusively uses Tribulus terrestris fruit extract (not from other parts of the plant such as leaves, stem, or root), as the fruit is the structure with the highest concentration of steroidal saponins, the active phytochemical compounds to which Tribulus' functional properties are attributed. Tribulus steroidal saponins include protodioscin, gitonin, tribulosaponins A and B, tribulosin, and terrestrosins A to K, among others. Protodioscin is considered the most bioactive compound, being primarily responsible for Tribulus' documented properties in hormonal support and sexual function.
95% standardized saponins: the highest quality standard on the market: The vast majority of Tribulus terrestris supplements available on the market have a highly variable and typically lower saponin content, with standardizations between 20% and 60%, which makes it impossible to compare the effectiveness of products with different standardizations by simply comparing the declared dose. Evolus-95 is standardized to 95% saponins, meaning that 95% of the extract mass is specific active compound (saponins), with only 5% of other plant components. With 1000 mg of extract per capsule, each daily dose of 2 capsules provides 1900 mg of pure saponins. This exceptional standardization is the main differentiator of Evolus-95 compared to most competitors.
20:1 extraction ratio for maximum potency and dosing convenience: The 20:1 extraction ratio of Evolus-95 means that 20 g of native Tribulus fruit were needed to produce each gram of extract. With 1000 mg of extract per capsule and a daily dose of 2 capsules (2000 mg of extract), Evolus-95 is equivalent to a dose of 40 g of native fruit per day, far exceeding what would be practically possible to ingest in powder or raw root form. This concentration ratio is the same as that used in most reference clinical studies on Tribulus terrestris, ensuring the scientific relevance of the dose provided by the product.
Support for muscle tone and energy levels: Tribulus terrestris has a tradition of use as a general tonic and physical invigorator in multiple cultures. The steroidal saponins of Tribulus, especially protodioscin, have a chemical structure with similarities to hormonal precursors, which is believed to be the molecular basis for the properties of support for body and muscle tone and physical vigor associated with this plant. HSN positions Evolus-95 as a support for body and muscle tone and energy levels for men and women, without the stimulating properties of conventional adrenergic stimulants.
Support for sexual desire and sexual function: Tribulus terrestris has one of the most extensive traditional evidence bases of any plant for supporting libido and sexual function in both genders. Clinical studies with standardized Tribulus extracts document improvements in sexual desire, sexual satisfaction, and sexual function parameters in men and women. The proposed mechanism involves the modulation of the hormonal system, possibly through the action of saponins on the endogenous production of hormones or neuroendocrine mediators.
Zinc for fertility, testosterone, and the immune system: The Zinc included in the formula as zinc citrate (one of the most bioavailable forms) has multiple functions documented by EFSA: it demonstrably contributes to the maintenance of normal testosterone levels in the blood, to normal fertility and reproduction (including normal spermatogenesis), to the normal functioning of the immune system, and to normal protein synthesis. The combination of Tribulus terrestris with Zinc creates a synergy of support for male hormonal balance that is greater than each ingredient acting in isolation.
Selenium for spermatogenesis and antioxidant protection: Selenium (L-selenomethionine) demonstrably contributes to normal spermatogenesis (as recognized by EFSA) and to the protection of cells from oxidative stress. For athletes with a high training volume, the antioxidant protection of Selenium is especially relevant for maintaining reproductive function and hormonal balance in contexts of high systemic oxidative stress.
Vitamin B6 for hormonal and protein metabolism: Vitamin B6 (pyridoxine) is an essential cofactor in numerous reactions of amino acid and steroid hormone metabolism. As recognized by EFSA, Vitamin B6 contributes to the normal regulation of hormonal activity, to the normal metabolism of proteins and glycogen, and to the normal functioning of the nervous system, complementing the properties of Tribulus in supporting hormonal balance.
Clean label, vegan, gluten-free, non-GMO formula: Evolus-95 is manufactured in Spain in an IFS (International Featured Standards) certified laboratory, with high-quality controlled raw materials and non-GMO. The formula is vegan, gluten-free, and without any declared food allergens (no gluten, fish, lactose, dairy, soy, nuts, or eggs).
Uses
Recommended dose: Take 1 capsule 2 times a day with meals (total: 2 capsules/day = 2000 mg Tribulus 20:1 extract = 1900 mg saponins). Taking it with food improves gastrointestinal tolerance.
Usage cycles: Tribulus can be used continuously or in cycles of 8 to 12 weeks with a 4-week break, depending on the individual protocol. The effects tend to be more pronounced after 4 to 8 weeks of regular use.
Synergistic combinations: For more comprehensive hormonal support, Evolus-95 can be combined with HSN Black Maca Extract (20:1), Ashwagandha KSM-66®, and Zinc. For male fertility support, combine with additional Selenium and Coenzyme Q10.
