I would have made the joke but our politics will not match up i.e. English stereotypes and American stereotypes will not match.

There was a strong chance I would make a joke which wasn't funny or understood as well as a very possible chance I would offend someone lol.

Blake talks weird.

True enough, you know I'm just messing with yah bennifer. You are free to purchase the actual combo at Nutraplanet, ship it to me and you know I don't mind forwarding it to you my cheeky friend.

Abstract

Purple sweet potato color (PSPC), a class of naturally occurring anthocyanins, has been reported to possess a variety of health-promoting properties. Emerging evidence indicates that PSPC can suppress postprandial hyperglycemia via inhibition of α-glucosidases. However, the protective effects of PSPC on hepatic insulin resistance and the precise mechanisms underlying these protective effects have never been investigated. In this study, our data showed that PSPC effectively improved the fasting blood glucose level, glucose and insulin tolerance by suppressing reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and by restoring glutathione (GSH) content and antioxidant enzymes' activities. PSPC further prevented the oxidative-stress-mediated endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress in the livers of high-fat-diet (HFD)-treated mice. Moreover, PSPC dramatically suppressed the c-Jun-N-terminal kinase 1 and I kappa B kinase β activation and nuclear factor-kappa B p65 nuclear translocation caused by oxidative and ER stress in the livers of HFD-treated mice. Ultimately, PSPC notably restored the impairment of the insulin receptor substrate-1/phosphoinositide 3 kinase/protein kinase B (Akt) insulin signaling in the livers of HFD-treated mice. In conclusion, our findings indicate that PSPC protected against HFD-induced hepatic insulin resistance via decreasing ROS level and blocking ROS-mediated ER stress.

Abstract

The purpose of the current study was to determine the anti-obesity and anti-inflammatory effects of an extract of purple sweet potatoes (PSPs) on 3T3-L1 adipocytes. For this purpose, differentiated 3T3-L1 adipocytes were treated with a PSP extract at concentrations of 1,000, 2,000, and 3,000 μg/mL for 24 hours. Then, we measured the changes in the sizes of the adipocytes, the secretion of leptin, and the mRNA/protein expression of lipogenic, inflammatory, and lipolytic factors after the treatment with the PSP extract. The PSP extract diminished leptin secretion, indicating that growth of fat droplets was suppressed. The extract also suppressed the expression of mRNAs of lipogenic and inflammatory factors and promoted lipolytic action. The antioxidative activity of the PSP extract was also measured using three different in vitro methods: 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl free radical scavenging activity, ferric reducing ability potential assay, and chelating activity of transition metal ions. Taken together, our study shows that PSP extract has antilipogenic, anti-inflammatory, and lipolytic effects on adipocytes and has radical scavenging and reducing activity.

There is something really wrong when you get the product before I do.

haha I can't argue with that. Did you still want to do that intra-workout idea you briefly mentioned before?

What is this idea you speak of?

[dsade]

What is this idea you speak of?

We're looking at the interactions between PPAR-delta and GLUT-4 activation in muscle by coadministration of Slintensity, BCAA, GlycoMyx, and some simple sugars (to guard against hypoglycemia) pre and during workout.

Sadly, yes....

I'm planning on using intra for my TKD, good to see a protocol already laid out, I'll probably piggyback off that.

Great pubmed links, Matt.

Science arouses me...

[edsmithers]

Is this a slin-sane replacement. HERE's why I'm asking...

I've been told to get some slin-sane v2 and stack it with agmatine for my vacation so I could keep somewhat of a pumped look most of the day even while not training. I said I'd be eating lots of carbs and so someone said slin-sane would be my best bet for the pump along with the agmatine.

Should I get slintensity instead? Would it provide me with the same pump/full muscles, or should I stick to slin-sane for THIS purpose currently.

Thanks!

Personally, getting a GDA because it 'provides a pump' is a silly reason, but to each his own. I understand what you're saying and would go with the suggestion of agmatine + glycerol monostearate (glycergrow) for a cosmetic pump look (albeit agmatine also has other functions).

I can't recommend slintensity personally, as I haven't used it, but yes it is a similar product as slin sane v2.

I won't comment on the Slin Sanev2 formula.

Scan the writeup really quick and you will see why SLintensity is a GROUND BREAKING new formula. The interaction between PPAR-delta, and the very potent muscle GLUT-4 activation, along with the inclusion of norvaline (which was my innovation for a nutrient partitioner) will not only give you unbeatable nutrient partitioning effect, but an incredible and long lasting pump....especially when combined with the GlycoMyx.

Meh, this really has no relevance unless you plan on bathing your fat cells with fully-intact purple sweet potato extract for 24 hours straight (this will never occur physiologically). That said, it's a better carb product than anything else out there.

CAN you? If your diet supports it, sure. Would it be wise? I don't know.
