How would you mix this to make either a solution or a suspension. I was thinking of mixing it w/ an EFA oil.
Final MP release is actually 180 caps, which are actually slightly more potent than the beta (ever so slightly though).This is all speculation, but here is my guess: Recommended dosage for MP is 6-8 caps per day(3-4 grams of lipidAce), divided between two doses (3-4 in am and pm(1.5-2 grams LipidAce in am and pm)), correct?
Matt has a recomended dosage of 2-3 grams per day, which is 1-1.5 grams in the am/pm.
So DS recommends 3-4 grams of LipidAce per day, and matt recommends 2-3 grams of TTA per day.
So a logical estimate would be that LipidAce is about 70% TTA.
120 caps MP = 60g LipidAce = 42g TTA
@ $40 per bottle, we are paying $95 for 100g of TTA.
Matt is selling 100g of TTA for $37.50.
Of course, all of this hinges on the speculation that Matt is recommending about the same TTA per day that DS is recommending. It is entirely possible that he is recommending more or less per day. But even if DS was 100% TTA (which it isn't), we would still be paying $66 per 100 grams of TTA. So even given the near best case scenario for DS, Matt's is still almost half price. I guess I'll just have to experiment and find the right daily dose for me.
I tried MP, but couldn't afford it so I only made it through one bottle at 6 per day. Wasn't that impressed, but we will see what a higher maintained dose dose for me.:twisted:
If you guys would listen to my suggestions from Dr.D you'd have more ideas to enhance MP than you'd know what to do withFinal MP release is actually 180 caps, which are actually slightly more potent than the beta (ever so slightly though).
i just checked out a list of your posts and couldnt find anything. if you have a link or just want to repost that would be great.If you guys would listen to my suggestions from Dr.D you'd have more ideas to enhance MP than you'd know what to do with
I would also like to see this.i just checked out a list of your posts and couldnt find anything. if you have a link or just want to repost that would be great.
thanks
OK, fixed. Its tough to speculate on this. The only way we could really estimate the proper dosage would be to experiment with MP and CNW's TTA, and try to get a roughly equivalent dosage. Like I said, it's all speculation based on recommended dosages. For the hell of it, I also listed a price comparison assuming MP was 100% TTA.Final MP release is actually 180 caps, which are actually slightly more potent than the beta (ever so slightly though).
I'd love to see it too.Very Interesting! It wuld be great if someone could test these ideas out, ecpsecially the forskolin...I'm thinking that could make a big difference the way you describe it.
I'm really busy as of now...could you elaborate on the ALCAR/ephedrine for me? I'm assuming the ephedrine due to the release of fatty acids due to increases in norepinephrine (I think this is right)? This would be along the same thinking as using forskolin to liberate adipocyte stored fatty acids, no?from studies, it also seems that ALCAR would be synergystic as well as ephedrine......also one who is on a ketogenic diet would probably see some really dramatic results taking tta
I was making the assessment purely because it seems that most (myself included) dont use antioxidents year-round; most use them only when using methyls or for recovery from something that is potentially hepatotoxic.also, I think antioxidants should be a staple regardless, but I see your point
I believe I remember seeing it B-A-C.any suggestions on as to where to buy forskholin? (other than the small amount in thermos)
I think also vitamen shoppe's sell a specific brand name "Forslean", its the highest patented extract of forskolin from coleus...all forskolin products should use the forslean extract for optimal amounts of forskolin.any suggestions on as to where to buy forskholin? (other than the small amount in thermos)
Fish oils really shoudl always be taken, not only for their PPARa activation but also their myriad other health benefits.i have yet to see it actually put in a post.. would TTA be better taken WITH EPA/DHA fish oils much like sesamin products
Being done as we speakFish oils really shoudl always be taken, not only for their PPARa activation but also their myriad other health benefits.
TTA is a very potent activator of PPARa, but also an activator of delta and gamma (to a much lesser extent). EPA/DHA probably wouldnt cause any appreciable result over TTA.
Something else I found while researching...http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?cmd=Retrieve&db=pubmed&dopt=Abstract&list_uids=15825830&query_hl=1
alpha-methylated fatty acids activate PPARa better than non-alpha-methylated. That goes for EPA/DHA/TTA/palmitic acid/CLA, etc etc.
Maybe we should look into an alpha-methylated version of TTA?
Also, I thought this was an interesting study. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?cmd=Retrieve&db=pubmed&dopt=Abstract&list_uids=11071041&query_hl=1
Showing that TTA actually increases the size of mitochondria (energy producing organelles) in both Type I and II muscle fibers.
I don't think it will make a difference one way or the other. The two compliment each other, but TTA is a much more potent activator.just curious, what dose do you guys take of EPA/DHA...I take 3g/day total, but I'm not sure if I should bump this up or down with the TTA?
I figured that alpha-methyl TTA might have been one of the things you were discussing with Dr. D that you coudlnt say...figured the people asking about it would want to know.Being done as we speak
