Test Factor by Molecular Nutrition with RC Pensis and AcetoFIT is one of the strongest testosterone support supplements available. RC Pensis is a patented formula that helps to increase the total free or bioavailable testosterone in your body. Test Factor will increase serum testosterone levels, but also is powerful enough to support a full spectrum of androgen action including increased protein synthesis rates, improved energy & vitality, extended muscle endurance, enhanced nutrient delivery, and increased libido or sexual energy.
ActeoFIT is a new & unique form of herbal extracts standardized for the natural high-affinity Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulator (SERM) ligand acteoside. There are dozens of studies supporting the use of acteoside and its source herbs in the field of sports nutrition. For example, one series of preliminary experiments with mice have demonstrated an increase in endurance during exercise, along with inhibited creatine kinase and improved glycogen stores. This may translate to better performance; along with preserved muscle mass and energy (glycogen is the primary source of fuel during exercise). Further still, hyperplasia and hypertrophy of muscle cell mitochondria were observed without damage to the myofibril. This supports muscle fiber growth (size and number), along with a significant anti-catabolic (protein sparing) effects.
There is presently no other testosterone supplement combinations like RC Pensis & ActeoFIT available that have been shown to produce such strong increases in testosterone levels as Test Factor can.

OVERVIEW:
RC Pensis is an herbal extract of the medicinal plant Ruta Chalepensis, a new patent pending nutraceutical for sports nutrition and male hormone support applications.
One primary use for RC Pensis is to increase testosterone levels in men. Studies have shown oral administration of ruta chalepensis extract to increase testosterone levels in male rats by 365-476%. Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH) was also increased by approximately 400%. Supplementation was associated with an increase in testicular weight and volume, and a doubling of the live sperm count. Sperm mobility also doubled, and total sperm abnormalities dropped by 45%. There is presently no other dietary supplement ingredient available in this category that is backed by such strong figures in a peer-reviewed study.
Additional peer-reviewed studies suggest ruta chalepensis has strong insulinomimetic (mimics/copies insulin's action) activity. Supplementation of ruta chalepensis extract for 15 days improved the insulin secreting capacity of the pancreatic beta cells, and also enhanced the overall biological action of insulin. Insulin is a powerful anabolic hormone in humans. It is responsible for transporting amino acids and glucose into the muscles, and exerts both direct anabolic and anti-catabolic action on muscle protein. Liver glycogen also increased by nearly 70% with ruta chalepensis administration, and skeletal muscle glycogen (a primary fuel source for a workout or athletic endeavor) increased by 18%.
Ruta chalepensis extract has also been shown to increase nitric oxide (NO) production via a cGMP mechanism. The enhancement of NO was associated with a clear increase in vasodilation, or increased blood flow to the extremities due to relaxation of the arteries. In addition to producing an enhanced “pump” effect during exercise, enhanced nitric oxide and vasodilation in men may be associated with an increase in the girth, length and duration of erections. Note that phosphodiesterase (PDE) inhibitors such as sildenafil and vardenafil work by decreasing the degradation of cGMP. This mechanism of action represents a second distinct pathway in which RC Pensis may support both sports performance and male libido/sexual functioning.
FUNCTIONAL CATEGORIES:
Sports Nutrition (muscle mass, strength, endurance, performance), Libido Enhancement, Insulin Support
ACTION:
° Stimulation of testosterone, FSH
° Increased insulin synthesis/activity
° Enhanced NO synthesis via cGMP
BENEFITS:
° Increased muscle mass and strength
° Increased pump, vascularity
° Support of male libido, sexual functioning
° Greater endurance, sports performance
SUGGESTED DOSAGE:
500 – 1,500 mg per day
SAFETY:
RC Pensis is obtained by proprietary extraction of ruta chalepensis, an herb with a long history of safe use in traditional Ayurvedic medicine. Ruta chalepensis is currently included on the FDA's list of GRAS (Generally Recognized as Safe) herbs (www.ars-grin.gov/duke/syllabus/gras.htm).
