Nice. I really like 6-paradol and it is a compound where increasing dose = increased effects
would this result in increased urination? just seems like something I've noticed since I began taking epilogue. Usually at night. I also have a late eating window, which may be another reason.Okay, so you guys are all aware of the 17a-methyl modification to prevent metabolism in steroids on first pass. But I'm willing to bet most of you don't know there are two separate and distinct types of metabolism possible during first pass. Metabolism is broken up into two phases. Phase 1 is where changes like Ketone to Alcohol takes place; phase 2 is where something called conjugation happens. Conjugation is how our body gets things ready for excretion into urine, and usually happens with the second pass through the liver. In cases where the substrate (Urolithin B) doesnt have a moiety suitable for phase 1 metabolism, it skips phase 1 and goes directly to phase 2, conjugation.
The purpose of conjugation is to take substrates that are largely non-polar, i.e. steroids or Urolithin B, and make them polar so they can be excreted in urine. They do this by attaching a modified sugar or sulfate group to an alcohol or ketone, or similar group. This increases the polarity so they dont get reabsorbed once they are in the filtrate in the urine, which increases their excretion.
Urolithin B is not subject to any extensive phase 1 metabolism, BUT, it is subject to extensive phase 2 metabolism.
Phase-II metabolism limits the antiproliferative activity of urolithins in human colon cancer cells.

To quote for those who don't want/have time to read the study, "We also report here, for the first time, the role of ABC transporters and Phase-II metabolism in HT-29 cells as a mechanism of cancer resistance against urolithins due to their conversion to glucuronide conjugates that exerted lower antiproliferative activity"
The underlined portion is key. The limiting factor in the activity of the Urolithins and their multitude of species is their conjugation. The only way to limit exposure to conjugation is to skip the first exposure to it all together. The only way to skip the first exposure is to use a non-oral route, like IM, SC, or TD.
Here, the authors report that while Urolithin B is amazing on paper, the phase 2 exposure nullifies the effects to a point at which they are no longer relevant.
"Therefore, phase-II metabolism limits the antiproliferative, estrogenic, and antiestrogenic activities of dietary polyphenols on BC cells. Likewise, as a call of caution, enthusiasm should be limited for publishing effects that are not physiologically relevant."

Lastly, the urine excretion. (This study also showed that gut microbiology also deactivates it via phase 2 metablism)
" However, the microbial metabolite 3,8-dihydroxy-6H-dibenzo[b,d]pyran-6-one (urolithin B) conjugated with glucuronic acid was detected [in the urine] along the fractions F3-F5 in all of the subjects, independently of the consumed foodstuff."

In summary, the effects of Urolithin B are limited due to phase 2 metabolism. Upon oral ingestion, this occurs in (1) gut microbes (2) hepatic first-pass (3) target tissue cells. TD bypasses 2 out of the 3 phase 2 metabolic routes, meaning TD Urolithin B has only one third the exposure to metabolic deactivation as oral Urolithin B.
This seems like a good move. Can't wait for your review!Rule 1 getting into the cereal game too

Last ingredient is PegaPump here’s the write up on it because I’ve never heard of it
PegaPumpis another breakthrough pump and performance ingredient included in NovaPump
.
PegaPumpis an aqueous extract of Peganum Harmala standardized for the specific alkaloids that promote vasorelaxant and cardiovascular benefits, including the beta-carbolines Harmine, Harmaline and Harmalol.
Peganum Harmala is used extensively around the world in the treatment of a number of cardiovascular disorders including hypertension and heart disease.[8] In fact, various studies have noted that the alkaloids present in PegaPump[9,10,11,12]:

I have a ton of BCAA's in my stash once they are used up I need to up grade to EAA's

Or you could start mixing them with an EAA formula![]()

Man cookie butter sounds like a tasty flavor!Invalid Link Removed
its sooo good bros, waited until I killed the whole tub just to make sure it was as good consistently as first try
probably my favorite peanut butter currently

"Man cookie butter".... I dont think that sounds remotely "tasty" or anything I'd want to try for that matter.Man cookie butter sounds like a tasty flavor!![]()
