What happened to Agmatine as a staple?

[dacowboy76]

I remember a few years ago when agmatine was considered a staple by many. I don’t see it mentioned as much anymore. Did something better come along? Iirc potential GDA properties, nootropic benefits, heart health, and a few more thing were cited as benefits.

its still around .. i have bulk to last me years and i love the stuff

you have stated all the benefits .. i love it pre workout as well

SNS glycophase - includes it in their GDA as well.

I use bulk agmatine as a staple, as well of GlycoPhase that was mentioned above. I have done so for a while, I just don’t post about it. I imagine that is similar for others as well.

Old is gold

I do love new s7, vaso6 but if given choice for one ingrident .. I would pick agmatine.

Yeah…

It was basically swapped out of all PWOs and replaced with Beta-Alanine.

And people noticed..

Europe banned it some years back and most brands that wants to sell internationally removed it from their products. It sucks as I love it.

Was it due to availability and cost of it?

i think SNS touched on this .. i think cost and fda eyes on it

cit & BA are cheap as it gets so they get thrown in all of them .. cit for me is up there as well, not a fan of BA mainly bc i cant handle the tingles plus doesnt help when your water intake suxs

I've read that agmatine does not function well with arginine. Any truth to this?

I use bulk agmatine in my homemade pre workout along with a bcaa, bulk citrullline mallate, glycerpump and sea salt. The odd time I will throw in potassium nitrate.

So why has agmatine become less popular over the years? Fantastic ingredient.

People always just like shiny new things.

I think it’s more advantageous for its multitude of benefits throughout the day than a strict pre workout pump ingredient.

I prefer it to start the day, but I’ve been taking it like that when I use it since it was released in Blueprint.

if we all stick to old stuff that works .. can you imagine what would happen to this billion $ industry ?

harsh truth .. and stuff that really works always gets put on fda watchlist

 

[mastah]

didnt Nitrosigine replace it? I still use agmatine, love it.. around 1500mg to workouts

Why is the FDA eyeing it?
