Cycle Support FAQ
Q. What is cycle support?
A. In an effort to bring to the consumer a quality, effective, and good tasting cycle support supplement, Anabolic Innovations has Cycle Support.

Q. What is so special about Cycle Support?
A. It really is a total cycle support formula, addressing on cycle needs such as lipid values, liver function, DHT issues, blood pressure, et al.

Q. What ingredients does Cycle Support contain?
A. The Chocolate and Peanut butter flavored Cycle Supports contain Red Yeast Rice, NAC, Silymarin, Hawthorn Berry, Saw Palmetto, Nettle Root, Celery Seed extract, Idebenone, and Policosanol. The new Orange flavor contains the same ingredients except for Red Yeast Rice, we replaced it with Grape Seed extract.

Q. What do all those ingredients do?
A. Combined together they provide on cycle support, preventing and lessoning the damage done by some anabolics of today. There will be detailed ingredient descriptions now.

Q. What is Red Yeast Rice?

Q. What is NAC (N-acetylcysteine)?
A. We included this for its effects on keeping your liver healthy. It is used clinically to tread Acetominophen overdoses, proving its nephroprotective abilities. It also has many other uses, such as increasing intra-cellular glutathione expression, as well as being a potent anti-oxidant.

Q. What is silymarin?

A. Idebenone is a synthetic analogue of CoEnzyme Q10. It has cardiovascular benefits due to its similarity with CoQ10.

Q. What is Policosanol?
A. Policosanol was included for its ability to lower total and LDL cholesterol.

Q. What is Grape Seed extract?
A. It was included for its many cardiovascular benefits.

Q. Now that I know what is in it, how much do I take?
A. Adhere to the directions on the bottle. 1 serving in the AM, and another in the PM.

Q. Can I mix this with a protein shake?
A. Yes you can. It mixes quite well with a lot of protein flavors out right now.

Q. Do I need to take it with/without food?
A. Whatever method you prefer is fine. Like mentioned, a protein shake is a good idea, and really easy to do. Most of us are using multiple protein shakes per day anyway.

Q. I missed a dose. What do I do?
A. There is no need in trying to “make up for” a dose. If you missed a dose just make sure to take the next one.

Q. Can I take this while not on cycle for general health purposes?
A. Yes you can. It is a great idea.

Q. If I take it late in the PM will it keep me awake?
A. No. Taking it before bed will be fine.

Q. How long can I take it for?
A. Due to its effects as a general health supplement, this can be taken for periods longer than most supplements. We would still suggest a break every 3-4 months.

I've been using it almost year around for the past four years. I've recently started mixing it with Toco-8 for a very potent natural "tonic."

Life Support has become very popular for everyday health and not just during a cycle.

I have everything I need lined up for my first cycle and am quite excited.

I do have a question though. I have Cycle Support (Chocolate) and have began taking it this morning. Is there a "loading" phase to have the ingrediants in your system before jumping into cycle?

I have heard everything from 2 weeks, 1 week, just start taking with cycle.... I want to do it right and that means starting it off right.

Give me the low down so I can keep my old body safe while I push it to do what it is fighting me to achieve.

Thanks Don and others.

7-10 days before you start the cycle is usually enough to get the hawthorne berry in your system so it is effective at BP control.:)

For Mdrol, I personally would take one scoop a day for two weeks before cycle, two scoops (taken separately) a day while on cycle, and one a day during PCT.

I am currently using cycle support for the first time, and I was wondering whether I need to fill the scooper all the way to the top or only up to the little line? Thanks in advance...

I loved mixing in a serving with my protein shakes for a little extra support

I figured I would use the cycle support as opposed to the life support for the quicker absorption... however, I think i am still going to add some life support caps to change it up

I've recently stocked up on Life Support for the same reason. Sometimes it's just easier to pop a few capsules, especially on the run.
