damnit! just before bulk x factor is supposed to be released this sh!t gets discovered! i wanted to try it too, oh well.
MN doesn't say cut the healthy fats. From what i've read it seems AA uptake is much preferable to other fatty acids in general, anyway.Yeah I agree. X-Factor says cut out healthy fats like fish oil. Hm, yeah GREAT idea. A pro-inflammatory is not good for the body. People take medication to get rid of the inflammation, not make it worse.
Please be careful now. AA is found high in unhealthy people. BUT, it doesn't mean it's bad. In fact, XF has been proven to reduce IL-6 which proves that inflammation is actually lowered while supplementing. Fish oils act via different pathways, and we are investigating the proper amount to be taken with it.Yeah I agree. X-Factor says cut out healthy fats like fish oil. Hm, yeah GREAT idea.

Well it isn't that simple, IL-6's inflammatory effects are from its role in energy homeostasis, it signals from the muscle to liver to break down glycogen and mediates other processes like lipid oxidation ... so lowering it would especially be beneficial to endurance athletes because it is directly linked to fatigueIn fact, XF has been proven to reduce IL-6 which proves that inflammation is actually lowered while supplementing.
So would it be safe to do a continuous 50 day ON of x-factor and 50 days off of x-factor for the rest of your life? or would this really have an effect? Is x-factor meant for only 1 or 2 cycles? What is the limit?Lets look at this logically (Reaper pay attention)-
Reducing Omega 3 for 50-60 days is not going to have life altering effects and supplementing with AA for the same time is not going to give you prostate cancer. Cancer is not an overnight mutation, just like any other alteration in someone. I can guarantee that everyone on this board has gone longer than 60 days w/o significant Omega 3 supplementation/ingestion.
Also, think of it in the same terms as fat gain. You will not gain a significant amount of adipose tissue if your diet becomes terrible, but if you continue to eat 2-3x your maintenance kcals for a very long time, then a fat gain will be substantial.
Oral steroids can effect the liver negatively, but, unless you are taking a moronic amount, one 60 day cycle is not going to give you hepatic cancer.
If you do not have cancer, AA will not cause it. This is like saying if you put gasoline in a bucket without a spark. There will be no fire...So would it be safe to do a continuous 50 day ON of x-factor and 50 days off of x-factor for the rest of your life? or would this really have an effect?

I'm just wondering how many times this can be cycled before it will start effecting something....or not effecting anything at all if cycled? I think these are all questions that need to be met. But again...I have heard this before when I researched x-factor countless times before I even considered the product: "x-factor does NOT cause cancer, but it may worsen it" (due to obvious inflammatory issues, which is no surprise to me).
I believe the 50 day cycle is in fact safe...but can we continue to cycle on and off x-factor for long periods of times without issues?
Thanks for clearing it up JJohn! No more worries from me!If you do not have cancer, AA will not cause it. This is like saying if you put gasoline in a bucket without a spark. There will be no fire...
So it is indeed safe and IMO there are no limits, as long as you take your 50 day break as stated on the product.
Enjoy!
