i dont think i said kelp but i did say seawead, namelly bladderwack, the kind on the beach (in so cal) that has the little poppy things lol.

I also did say clary sage...

the best way to find out what others have guessed is to put your idea into the search this thread tool at the top of the thread (different then the normal search feature) and then youll know if someone else guessed it if it pulls up a post, if not then its yours to post..

We did not test for ORAC it already existed

Forgive me for my ignorance but I'm having a hard time understanding this. The testing of your product's actual ORAC value already existed prior to it's introduction on the market? That isn't ringing too clearly in my mind...could you elaborate a bit more as to how you know the ORAC value of your product if you've never tested it?

The orac of the ingredient was already known.

If you put vitamin E in your supplement you already know the ORAC value of vitamin E so your supplement will be similar.
 
So from another thread we've learned there's at least 4 ingredients in Recreate:

Compound 1 New to the industry mechanism of action:

Again, a very precise extract of this substance has been shown to inhibit the enzyme 11-B-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1, both selectively and very potently (4). In addition, it was shown to do so in muscle and adipose cells. Why is this good? 11beta-HSD1 is an enzyme responsible for converting the very weak glucocorticoid, cortisone, into the much more powerful, cortisol. We all know that excess cortisol can hamper your progress in the gym, and with the stress of living in our modern world, it’s certain that few people don’t have elevated cortisol levels. Unfortunately, this particular enzyme works against what we all as athletes and bodybuilders would like and works to increase cortisol levels. In addition, another sad bit of news is that activity of this enzyme only seems to increase as we get older (5).
By inhibiting 11beta-HSD1, it is thought that it could be used to treat obesity (reduce body fat) and improve insulin sensitivity. Additionally, a beneficial effect upon muscle mass would be expected (6).

Compound 2 New to the industry mechanism of action:

A compound found in a certain cactus plant, has a structural similarity to norepinephrine. It has both alpha and beta-adrenergic activity (9). Additionally, it directly stimulates postsynaptic receptors while enhancing the physiological effects of norepinephrine via increasing synthesis of it and inhibiting its’ reabsorption. The end result is a stimulant effect similar to ephedrine, without the “all over the place” behavior. In fact, it produces a great deal of focus.

Compound 3
Forskolin

Compound 4
Caffeine

So is compound 2 the anti-ox? Any guesses to what compounds 1 or 2 are?
 
I understand the buzz with this stuff but it has come to the point where all this hype is not exciting. It has actually starting to be annoying. All of these monkeys and guesses seem like a big joke.

I'm not saying they won't deliver on their claims but only the future will tell. These seem like pretty big claims. The last time I saw this much excitement was DS's Melting Point. Which turned out to be an average supplement. I think I will wait for a completed log as people have had this supp for awhile now and everyone seems to quit taking it after a few days. One would think that some beta testing feedback would be circulating by now considering the estimated release date is 2-3 weeks away according to Jacob.

I have to hand it to USP considering the lack of user feedback and hype you've created.:clap2:

srry im just a little confused on what you are saying. and i understand what you mean about hype...but idk i don't think this as hyped as some things on this board have been, but most of this is all in good fun the monkey thread is really just monkeys lol

OH YEAH? Well YOU SKUNKMAN ARE A SMELLY MONKEY!! HA TAKE THAT!!!..............:rasp:! Ok, joking aside now. We the users of Am are the ones who in essence make up the hype. Of course when a company comes out with something new, they say it is the latest and greatest. Should they say it is the old and defunct? We sometimes chose to get excited over it, and create the buzz ourselves. Anywho, we are just having fun with this thread, trying to guess what the ingredients are, so relax a bit, take a guess , and have fun! USP labs is a company that is very respected, because they put out products that work. Let everyone create the hype, and have fun, and don't try it until it is out and proven! Don't have to get wound up about it me thinks. Just sit back, read, and wait.
 
yea i remember how much fun it was with some of those AN contests....thats how i got started here :)

As far a I have read no one has taken the product for more than a week. Mullet, Ziricote, and one other I can't think of. I am sure there are others.

As far as being necessary goes I was merely mentioning my point of view. According to your logic your reply and swole210's reply isn't warrented either. Because you believe something different than the mentioned does not entail that the mentioned isn't important. Just a matter of opinion my man.
 
In all reality if I wasn't broke I would be brave enough to try it without some feedback. I don't make a lot at the moment so my supplements chosen tend to have good reviews.

If you end up with the product Easy you should log it! I have enjoyed the logs you put on here.
 
I perpetually log. I do it for myself as much as for anything else. If I want to know what I weiged in july, and how much progress I made in the last 6 months, I can just hunt thru threads I started to see. Plus I can see progress on specific exercises. I think thats really important for everyone in the long term, having a way to track progress.

I see your point of view. I t is a valid point, and one to use for your own jusdgement which is a good thing, but noe need to start imposing that the product is bunk, it is all hype, and that everyone on this thread is.........a monkey:think:?! No bad blood here, as I am not trying to start anything or get on anyones bad side. Just saying that one can ask honest and legit questions about something(as we should!), and keep the pessimistic assumptions and bashing/name calling out of it.:cheers: -The End-

My guess is yes, 2 is the anti-ox we are trying to guess. I think 1 is a good GA extract of licorice.

You know by responding you are participating in the hype.

To be fair, USPLabs always releases innovative supplements that work really well so there should be excitment. If our last product was Green tea and vitamin C than we have no business in hyping,.

I like to believe we earned respect in this regard. There are some Recreate testers on AM posting great feedback.

I agree with everything you mentioned. You guys are truly innovative. In all my years seeing supps come and go your company has created the most novel and effective supps I have ever seen. Your company has become, in my mind, the ideal that other companies strive to be. Almost all the new things coming out from my old favorites seem to be reformulations of preexisting products.

I suppose I was caught up in the moment and wanted you to release your product on my time line. I apologize.
 
I was wondering if it was an ecdysterone extract as a few have been shown to have anti-ox activity and also inhibit 11beta-HSD1 while not binding to the AR and thus no worries about HPTA suppression.
