3,4-divanillyltetrahydrofuran

I'm only interested in boosting my free-T(my total testosterone is quite high). Is there a source of 3.4-divanillytetrahydrofuran(divanil in original Activate) available if one is not interested in taking all the ingredients in AE. I searched online and haven't really found it as a stand alone product. I just started using Activate a few weeks ago, and am dissapointed the original Activate is being discontinued.

It may still be around for now, however I was informed that it was no longer in production. Is that correct?

Not sure. However it will raise your free test but likely lower your total test. More free test means more aromitization, which means more feedback to lower test production. If you don't take it in conjunction with an AI of some sort your total test production will drop even though your free test will be up.

The original Activate has just been released at GNC in Australia, for the low low price of $110. I'll grab some and send it over.

Yes that is how long it takes things to come out here and how expensive they are.

Yes. I've used both original Activate and bulk extract from Nutra in the same cycle even...no difference...works well.

Bulk seems like the best option if you only want the divanil.

I think it's close enough. Not totally sure if DS extraction process is different than what you find in the bulk nettle..but both work well at the end of the day.

If their extract is different, then they wouldn't call it 3,4-divanil...etc. The standardization of the extract may be different - ours is 95%. I would guess there's is also.

No such thing as max dose really. There is just the point of diminishing returns. I know a lot of people who got up to 8 caps per day of the original activate (400mg per serving).

Space the doses out as even as you can.

By the way, good luck with the Divanil. It tastes like charred flesh (don't ask how i know) and is a nightmare to pack.
