After reading the "dissolved in oil equates to magic WRT 1-test THP", one can easily deduce that the powdered hormones (Sauce, etc) can be broken apart and dissolved into oil and then ingested. Or did you have a more feasible argument for your supplement than "it has to be dissolved completely, not just taken with fat to get into the 'lymph' system"?
Certainly.
First your belief that the powdered cap will burst open and the steroid will separate out and meet perfectly with fat in your stomach to be absorbed by the lymph system is tremendously unrealistic to say the least. Look at the cited references. There were significant differences in the lymph absorption when different oils were used as vehicles, and this is when administered directly to the small intestine. Sesame oil was tremendously better than oelic acid (olive oil is 80% OA) for example. Take with food is just laughable.
Also, having the steroid dissolved in oil seems to offer a protective effect against metabolism. This was shown in a study where an ether-modified steroid was dissolved in sesame oil and incubated with fresh bile. After 1 hour about 94% of the hormone was unchanged in sesame oil. This was far better than the 54%when dissolved in oleic acid. Obviously you do not have this benefit when the steroid spends a large amount of time floating freely around your innards, before it meets with fat, now do you?
The relatively thick softgel also takes a significantly longer time to break open than a regular gelatin capsule. Since lymphatic absorption takes place in the upper small intestine, any time not exposed to the stomach the better.
Methinks the ethergel "science" is about as sound as alchemy. I guarantee you that the 15lbs in 4 weeks on ethergel gains are either coincidental or 1 in a million (or even possibly falsified).
I do not operate like that, and take personal offense to this suggestion. Look around the boards, Blackdream is not the only extremely satisfied customer.
1AD still kicks the ass of all of the 1-test orals out there, anyway, considering the bioavailability of 1-test is piss poor when taken orally. Unless it is dissolved in oil and allowed to enter the lymphatic system (sarcasm).
And on what to you base that clearly sound and reliable judgment? Have you used my product? I hate it when people talk out of their ass. Plus, the oral bioavailability of 1-AD is the same, if not slightly lower than that of 1-Test. You are an idiot LS.
Isn't that the same 'technology' that was behind Andriol? What, did the bioavailability increase from 5 percent to 8 percent when using a dissolved-in-fat delivery system? Andriol was a bust, we shall see with the ethergels.
Yes, and Andriol I will remind you is an effective oral testosterone replacement, sold in many countries. No drug company to my knowledge has ever sold powdered testosterone capsules. In the worst case study, with women, Andriol doubled the oral bioavailability of free T. I don’t know if it was taken with meals, which would greatly improve it. Women also get much better oral bioavailability from free testosterone than men do anyway, so it will be significantly more than doubled with males. Andriol was show repeatedly to be an effective T replacement in men, while T is known to be utterly useless. In fact,
the practice of oral dosing with testosterone was pretty much excluded in the late 1930’s. How come they just didn’t increase the cap dose as you suggest solves things? Andriol was not sold until the 80’s, and the whole time before that scientists were searching for an oral testosterone replacement. That is the technology you are holding on to with the powder-filled caps.
I am willing to bet that they won't knock 1AD or Mag10 off of the shelves-- not by a longshot.
I’m betting against you.
BTW, how does one end a cycle after a 8 week course of 1-test that results in near-total HTPA shutdown? You don't like clomid or nolvadex or anastrazole, you only seem to advocate HCG (which necessitates the use of an anti-e such as nolva/clomid/anastrazole, btw) which is a scheduled drug.
I suggest both HCG and an antiestrogen dipship. This point of view in several posts of mine, in my book, and in an article in next month’s Mind and Muscle (formerly BigMotherF*cker). Try reading before you speak.
And HCG is not a scheduled drug you moron. It is no different that the three other drugs in your post.
