OSTA Rx – COMING SOON!

What I find shady is the change from 30mg to 20mg, which wasn't apparent until after the product was released.

It was done because they had to add other "extracts" to make it a blend and thus make it easier to sell as a "dietary supplement". If they kept it at 30 mg per day and added the extras that would have raised the price higher and sales would have gone down as a result.

True. There's also the fact that they decided to pack extra stuff in the ostarine tabs to make sure it made it to the shelves, so plans overall were changed. I don't think it's unusual for that to happen. Can you elaborate on what you think is shady about the change from 30mg to 20mg? Is it the rep changing what he said to make it seem like he meant 20mg the whole time? I can't comment on his intentions.

Guys, I feel like this whole situation is being blown out of proportion. Let us take a step back and look at it again.

1) If a rep did make a mistake in saying the recommended dosage is 30mg, then it was simply mistake--or possibly a reflection of his personal dosing protocol, a misunderstanding, or something of that nature.

2) If IML was initially going to role out the product at 30mg (I AM NOT SAYING THIS IS THE CASE) and later changed it to 20mg then there is nothing shady about that. There could have been a multitude of reasons for such a change. Furthermore this could have been a move to limit side effects. To quote an IM article which refers to Osta:
"SARM’s (selective androgen receptor modulators). SARMS were designed to provide steroid-like effects without the side effects found in AAS, but the true value of this compound (for PCT purposes) is found in the fact that it does not lead to suppression of natural testosterone production when administered at dosages of 25 mg per day or less (or at least not to any significant degree)." http://www.ironmagazine.com/2012/is-...-pct-obsolete/

3) As someone else mentioned there is no one stopping you from running it at a higher dosage, however this could lead to suppression and more side effects.

As I mentioned before I am running this product, and am keeping a journal as well if anyone is interested:

Is Traditional PCT Obsolete?

Agreed. Didn't know you were running it, btw. I have been following your journal, just not for the past 5 days. Guess I'll have to check it out again!
