That would be a good experiment lol we should start a thread and have people give gym noobs vitamins saying they are juice then post their experiences.Genuinely considering giving my friend bcaa tablets nd telling him its a test / tren mix and see what happens xd
Fyi he doesnt know anything about anabolics bit wants to take them
We dont want them getting too big lolThat would be a good experiment lol we should start a thread and have people give gym noobs vitamins saying they are juice then post their experiences.
Hey Danes, you ever heard of plant sterols? https://www.supplementsource.ca/product_p/universal-natural-sterol-180.htmExactly and 120% agree.
It would be damn lie if I said high dose of Epi didnt gave me better pumps and endurance, but it would be also big lie if I said it was the best pump and endurance I have experienced from a supplement.
So yes, there are MUCH cheaper ingredients which works better than Epicatechin
I love (-)epi and I'll never stop taking it.its funny how everyone is down on epi now but a month or two ago it was the exact opposite
Yes I have heard. I would rather go for Plant steroids such as turkesteroneHey Danes, you ever heard of plant sterols? https://www.supplementsource.ca/product_p/universal-natural-sterol-180.htm
No one is down on epi. Are you in the right thread?its funny how everyone is down on epi now but a month or two ago it was the exact opposite
I enjoy (-)Epi as much as I enjoy big booties in leggings.its funny how everyone is down on epi now but a month or two ago it was the exact opposite
In a rat with metabolic syndrome does not mean in a healthy humanAnti-Hyperleptinemia and anti- inflammation
In the exploring the effects of sardine protein on insulin resistance, plasma lipid profile, as well as oxidative and inflammatory status in rats with fructose-induced metabolic syndrome found that Sardine protein diets also prevented hyperleptinemia and reduced inflammatory status in comparison with rats fed casein diets, according to “Dietary sardine protein lowers insulin resistance, leptin and TNF-α and beneficially affects adipose tissue oxidative stress in rats with fructose-induced metabolic syndrome” by Madani Z, Louchami K, Sener A, Malaisse WJ, Ait Yahia D.(d)
have you actually tried the sardine diet, or are you just quoting studies?Anti-Hyperleptinemia and anti- inflammation

Some of us are Most of the stuff listed above is so subjective - fuller muscles? Quantify that, and tell me how you measured it, LOL! Strength? Really? How much over and above natural progression? It's good for you, but some of this stuff is too much. The funny thing is, in the ONE study that looked at the effect on lean body mass, it actually had a teeny effect - yet now, the -epi crowd poo-poos the one thing it actually did (Folli/Myo ratio) and instead extolls the virtues in 72 other (unproven) areas - gotta love itNo one is down on epi. Are you in the right thread?
I have yet to try it but it is on my short list to take soon.I love (-)epi and I'll never stop taking it.
The plethora of health benefits alone are enough to keep me going.
Improved:
- BP
- lipids
- endothelial function
- insulin sensitivity
- strength
- endurance
- etc etc etc
Add to that the arguable benefits from myostatin inhibition and it's a no brainier.
If I had to try one, I'd go with the TD of Ep1c. Really blew my mind.I have yet to try it but it is on my short list to take soon.
Just finished a log with it actually if you wanna check it out under my profile. Had a very good run while on it and certainly on par with Ep1c Unleashed.how do you guys feel about optimum alpha epi- i just finished two bottles of ep1c unleashed and have 1 bottle left but i want to try another type of epi product before the third bottle of Ep1c unleashed
just want to find a different one to prolong the Ep1c and use between bottles
Thats trueI cannot but think this seems strangely familiar to things of the past like 3-4 Divanil and DAA. Came on like crazy, everywhere there were logs and PR's being made. Practically overnight everyone was recommending them in a stack.. and then well ya know.......
Not being neg just providing a counterpoint. Them items still have merit albeit not so much as originally publicized so somewhere the Epi has its place just, I don't think its the wonder its being pimped out as \
cautiously posting
Fair enough, but there is HUGE difference from Actuall/real effect of a compound and Placebo-Effect. I mean, if you write a review about a supp, we are interested in a real effect of compound and not the placebo effect you got from itIf its gives the person a placebo effect so what.
Gains are gains!
Who is actually bashing Epi? I dont see anyone bashing Epicatechin in this thread.Same two guys bashing epi again. nothing new here.
I am!!! I don't get what the big deal is for something so overpriced!!! it's like paying Mercedes prices for a volkswagon.Who is actually bashing Epi? I dont see anyone bashing Epicatechin in this thread.
This.the pumps on td ep1c unleash last a good 5+ hrs
HahaaI am!!! I don't get what the big deal is for something so overpriced!!! it's like paying Mercedes prices for a volkswagon.
I loved the smell of Ep1c TD. Loved the Lemon smell. Wanted to drink it lolThis.
I hate the inconvenience of transdermals, but Ep1c TD is on another level.
I think the added laxogenin and D3 in it might help as wellI think Epi is legit. I have noticed an increased ability for knocking out a few more reps per set, where normally I'd drop the weights. Wasn't 100% sold after reading about it on here, but I'm just over a month in using it...well using Anafuse... and I am Sold!
I really liked GET DIESEL DTP and NOS ETHER....I had amazing results. blew epi out of the water like a 10 ton torpedo.what would be the really better alts for strength and size??
Creatine as example. Proven, cheap and its effectivewhat would be the really better alts for strength and size??
The D3 sure but laxogenin is just a joke.I think the added laxogenin and D3 in it might help as well
Creatine mono.what would be the really better alts for strength and size??
COPwhat would be the really better alts for strength and size??
What are the so called better (natty) alternatives for endurance?Hahaa
But that is not bashing
Epicatechin is healthy and I would recommend it for many healthy properties.
For N.O boosting , there are better alternatives (cheaper too).
For Endurance, there are better alternatives (cheaper too)
For strength gains, there are REALLY better and proven alternatives (cheaper too).
For size gains, there are REALLY better and proven alternatives (cheaper too).
Is this bashing? It is not. It is the truth and we need to be real. It is just funny how some break PRs after just 1 week on Epicatechin..it sounds like Epicatechin is Dianabol × 10 !
Epicatechin has its own place in supplement industry but the hype (Overhype) need to land
In my experience with Lax and D3 I can say they do not boost performance. They do not really aid in pounding out a few extra reps. Lax has a place in the supplement (as in recovery benefits) industry, but it isn't really a performance enhancer. What he is describing definitely sounds like the -epi to me.I think the added laxogenin and D3 in it might help as well
In that case, out of the -epi products that I have tried, products that I responded best to were Anafuse and Magnitropin.In my experience with Lax and D3 I can say they do not boost performance.

Let's include Myosynergy please since I've tried several bottles of both Magnitropin & Myo (og), which by the way are a combination of stuff which includes EpiIn that case, out of the -epi products that I have tried, products that I responded best to were Anafuse and Magnitropin.
Pssst.... this makes two things we agree onI am!!! I don't get what the big deal is for something so overpriced!!! it's like paying Mercedes prices for a volkswagon.
But it's not being promoted (or priced) like Vitamin D or Green Tea Extract. Anyway, want some bang for the buck rep increases? Check Suppversity for p-Synephrine @ 170mg+ pre-workout. Some good data on the performance front. But yes if you can afford it, -epi IS HEALTHY.Aren't there legit health benefits to Epi?
So, if a product gives good strength gains and LBM, but is hell on hormones and organs. YAY WOOHOO LETS SNORT IT!!!!!
But if a product may or may not provide strength benefits but provides real health benefits. BOO GARBAGE GTFO POSER.
Interesting.
That is because most epi companies and placebo feelers claim strength, size, Recomp, myostatin inhibition, etc from it.Aren't there legit health benefits to Epi?

That is because it does help with strength, size, and recomp. The few that don't understand that endurance and strength are not exclusive of one another are generally the ones nay saying the loudest. Epi is wonderful for increased endurance and work capacity, which in turn can and usually does lead to increase in strength because of the ability to train in working sets longer. Obviously there is a balance because you don't want to continually work for endurance without suffering impact to strength, but there is definite benefit.That is because most epi companies and placebo feelers claim strength, size, Recomp, myostatin inhibition, etc from it.
If they just claimed it had health benefits and could possibly boost endurance they wouldn't be getting so much ****
