Does anyone else get cold with (the new) Alpha T2? Not that I mind - I know its working in more ways than one...
It's like a much stronger Vanilean effect....

Yes their is - at least a couple of coffees and then more (pre-workout) on workout days. Was prompted tonight to post - took my evening single cap dose and had a strong black coffee not long after. The caffeine seems to really bring Aplaha's effect. Tell me more...Is there any caffeine or any stimulants in your day? Through supplements or food (like coffee)
You're definitely a good reactor
........This is interesting. I noticed that you mentioned Alpha I love that stuff it works super well. I also enjoy DAA and bcaas. What protein do you use?
Caffeine synergizes with the yohimbe extract we use. When you couple this with the pro-thyroidals at full doses, there's a reason we didn't put caffeine in AT2: it would be too strong for most.Yes their is - at least a couple of coffees and then more (pre-workout) on workout days.

Nice, I like it. Most noticeable is the additional energy that is unleashed when caffeine is added....Caffeine synergizes with the yohimbe extract we use. When you couple this with the pro-thyroidals at full doses, there's a reason we didn't put caffeine in AT2: it would be too strong for most.

It what respects would it be too strong for individuals? The stimulant components, caffeine and yohimbe. aren't particularly strong, so what effect do the pro-thyroidals have when combined that causes this?Caffeine synergizes with the yohimbe extract we use.

Unleashing is exactly what it does!Nice, I like it. Most noticeable is the additional energy that is unleashed when caffeine is added....
Caffeine, yohimbe, and higenamine are all thermogenics. And thyroidals are also thermogenic. In short, you will sweat.It what respects would it be too strong for individuals?

Those thyroidals may cause one to become cold because they are anti thyrotrophic.Caffeine synergizes with the yohimbe extract we use. When you couple this with the pro-thyroidals at full doses, there's a reason we didn't put caffeine in AT2: it would be too strong for most.

Reduced TSH from oleuropein was secondary to basic feedback inhibition from T3 (increased peripheral T4 to T3 turnover). I think you may be looking at the older Alpha-T2.Those thyroidals may cause one to become cold because they are anti thyrotrophic.
And furthermore, a thermogenic causes one to become warm, not cold.
If you activate the SNS with VR-type compounds then you would stimulate sweating in the absence of thermogenesis.
This is one of the dumbest threads I've ever read.

No. It's working cause I can see changes Bud. I just noticed that I get cold if caffeine is present in the equation...and my energy level also sky rockets. Nice little discovery. One or 2 T2's and have a cup of black coffee 1/2 hour later and you have big time energy for many hours or have a pre-workout with 400-500mg caffeine (up to hours after you took the T2 dose) and you have crazy energy for the rest of the day - I am talking 8-10 hours. And the energy is in addition to what would normally be experienced from the coffee or pre-workout..You think it's working because you get cold?
Please shoot me.
Not sure, but while cutting I eat a few tabs of Dexaprine with E and take many scoops of Alphamine.....I find the T2 / caffeine effect pretty wild - so the average Joe might overwhelmed. I would recommend taking two T2's (after using them for a week) and having a cup of black coffee 1/2 hour later before introducing any more caffeine.It what respects would it be too strong for individuals?

Why do you think the compound responsible for increasing T3 in rats is oleuropein? Furthermore, the evidence that olive leaf extract effects thyroid metabolism in humans is lacking (unless you have evidence that I am not pivy to).Reduced TSH from oleuropein was secondary to basic feedback inhibition from T3 (increased peripheral T4 to T3 turnover). I think you may be looking at the older Alpha-T2.
I was referring to the thermogenic response generating heat. In OP's case, my best guess is peripheral vasoconstriction from yohimbinoids creating the sensation of cold without actually dropping core temperature.
There isn't a human study on oleuropein's effects on T3, and while I can't say for certain that it is the responsible bioactive, the compound/plant does have human studies to various other ends, which at the minimum indicates sufficient bioavailability to elicit physiological effects.Why do you think the compound responsible for increasing T3 in rats is oleuropein?

Furthermore, yohimbine doesn't cause peripheral vasoconstriction. It might, if it didn't have access to the CNS, but it does.
Even if we surmise that oleuropein is the active constituent, the results achieved in the rat study are absolutely below the threshold for contributing to active fat loss. Thyrotoxicity resulting in substantial weight loss occurs over the course of weeks-to-months in the setting of a T4/T3 10-100x's above baseline.There isn't a human study on oleuropein's effects on T3, and while I can't say for certain that it is the responsible bioactive, the compound/plant does have human studies to various other ends, which at the minimum indicates sufficient bioavailability to elicit physiological effects.
As for yohimbine, it does seem to increase diastolic blood pressure (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/10949101). Due to heavy selectivity for the alpha 2 over the alpha 1 receptor, we are presumably looking at increased vasoconstriction, probably mediated by a variety of factors, both in the vasculature and centrally.
Oh, so you mean to say that you have not tried Enhanced yet? Or Alphamine? You shall shiver and sweat like no tomorrow. Sadly that intensity does tend to taper off after awhile, now I just sweat a good amount.It what respects would it be too strong for individuals?

Oleuropein/olive leaf extract is but an ingredient in the formula. It wasn't included with the intention of mimicking supraphysiological levels of T4/T3. Rather, it has beneficial effects on metabolism in the murine model (the HED for increased peripheral deiodinase activity, even at ~60%, is very low), blood glucose, and the cardiovascular system.Even if we surmise that oleuropein is the active constituent, the results achieved in the rat study are absolutely below the threshold for contributing to active fat loss.

I would advise that you look into the older veterinary literature on yohimbine for its peripheral systemic effects.

Olive leaf is becoming very popular for multiple benefits.

I'll look into the old veterinary research for sure, I'm assuming in dogs? Anecdotally, caffeine + yohimbine makes my extremeties cold, which can give the illusion of a lowered overall body temperature.
It increases central SNS tone which also happens to increase sweating and subsequent evaporative cooling. Ascribing thermogenesis to feeling cold is moronic.Never heard of cold sweats?
A quick google search of "yohimbe cold sweats" sure does give a lot of hits...
I could really care less about its "multiple benefits." This thread is about thermogenesis, of which olive leaf does not modulate.Olive leaf is becoming very popular for multiple benefits. As we discussed before, one of the more frequently studied extracts the past 2-3 years
