In Reply to: Lori--read this for info on Chrysin/Ipriflavone posted by Unique on February 05, 1997 at 01:16:31:
: Lori,
: There seems to be some confusion here that chrysin and Ipriflavone work via the same mode of action. Chrysin (5,7 dihydroxyflavone)
: and 7-hydroxyflavone inhibit aromatase--thus an increase in testosterone. Sorry, but neither of these would have a great deal
: of bodybuilding applications. However, both would still be great for you to take as they are highly antiviral and hit the
: benzodiazapine receptor in the brain. I am presently doing research--in vitro--on ipriflavone because I think it works by inhibiting
: a calcium dependent protease throughout the body. If this is the case, it is revolutionary. I mean truly revolutionary like Nobel
: prize stuff. Flavonoids for some reason have the uncanny ability to inhibit various enzyme systems in the body--phosphodiesterase, aromatase,
: 5-alpha reductase, etc. I am hoping this is true for the above with Ipriflavone. The great thing is--ipriflavone is also great for you--every
: study has shown remarkably positive results. Very soon, I will be reviewing translated Hungarian research on ipriflavone. I will probably be one
: of a very few Americans which have done this (the company that makes it is doing this for me specially). By the way, I can get Ipriflavone in bulk!
: Keep up the fight!

It is too bad that people can't contribute more constructively.
My only feedback using Osteofix is that using 6-7 tabs daily, it reminded me of using a mild AS such as primo.
I unfortunately didn't get any blood work done during this time.
I can only say from personal experience that I had increased strength and hardness.
Just an overall good feeling like I was in the groove all the time.
I used it for a duration of 6 weeks. I felt that the gains were solid but in total
a gain a few lbs, keeping in mind that food intake was low to moderate with low glycemic index carbs
and prot. intake was 1.5g x lean body mass in lbs.
I know that Osteofix was designed for osteoporetic women so I though that since it was designed for geriatric usage
not too many side effects were possible.
Perhaps there is a correlation in muscle mass increase and bone density ?
I'll be interested to find out more about your research.
Keep me updated..and I'm still looking for a better source.
Could always call up a small company and have them contract out a large scale synth.
