I recently gave Sustain Alpha a go for about 3 weeks alongside akarkara, which is a staple for me. It did indeed give an alpha feeling and a calm confidence, which I really liked. Libido started to pick up on the 6th day, but unfortunately, never developed further and that effect went away from that point. In my case, I tend to not respond to many supplements in the same manner as others, so no fault of the product there.
I'm 42 and recently had a few labs done, although not as comprehensive as I would have liked, as my GP is very difficult that way, but that is another story. My overall testosterone was mid range, but my SHBG was above the top of the range, which is not ideal, even though I take boron daily. My urea was elevated as well, so perhaps I need to back down on the protein intake.
I am 2 weeks into a Dermacrine run. Straight away, I experienced an almost stimulant type effect from the Dermacrine at 3 pumps a day. During the first week and a half in particular, it was a bit rocky, as I had some days where anxiety was rising and I had to take a few day long breaks from dosing. Now past 2 weeks, however, I am liking it overall and am experimenting with additonal pumps to gauge response.
1. Appetite is increased dramatically. I almost can't stop eating, which is way out of character for me. Good thing I am not doing a recomp.
2. Application to my arms almost seems to have a slight site enhancement, or at least gives that appearance, perhaps in part due to more vascularity.
3. Slight strength increase noted on all lifts.
4. Very slight uptick in libido, which I am hoping becomes more pronounced and sustained.
5. Much more persistent sustained energy throughout the day.
Depending on the results I get, I'll decide how long to run it. As someone over 40, if it works really well, I'd ideally like to structure a way to take it without having to go off for too long, but not risk getting shut down.
