Phosphatidyl Serine (ps)?

[MonStar1023]

Has anyone heard anything about this product? From what I understand it's a cortisol lowering type supplement that should be taken preworkout and before bed. I understand that its in the product Cort-Bloc but I am just now trying it out for myself.

Supposedly a few hundred milligrams should lower cortisol levels but because of the price I am only able to take 100 mg. of PS before training and before bed. Its actually a GNC product that contains 500 mg. of a phosphatidyl serine complex, but it only have 100 mg. of actual PS.

Anyone tried this product or heard anything about it? I really need the supplement gurus to help me out.

I am following a CKD and hopefully it will help me hold onto, or add some muscle.

Hey Mon.PS is definitely a useful supplement,especially for natural bodybuilders.However,100mg of PS will not get the job done.Studies have shown 800mg is the efficacious dose pre-workout.Perhaps 400mg would be ample before bed.Most companies don't include enough PS in their products rendering them somewhat useless,unless you have a ton of $.However,there is a brand that contains 550mg per tab.It comes in a bottle of 60 caps for about $34.It is from PRO SOURCE and is called Super PS.Call 1-800-310-1555.I'm not sure if they have a website or not.Good luck.

See bro thats the thing I cant take that much of it I mean I am taking $30 bucks a bottle for like 30 capsules or something in each bottle. 100 mg. caps too!! Its such a rip-off I am going to post the ingredients if I can find them.

GNC PS 100

Phosphatidylserine 100 mg.
Phosphatidylcholine 45 mg.
Phosphatidyethanolamine 10 mg.
Phosphatidylinositol 5 mg.

Thats all thats in this product for $29.99. I am probably getting ripped off. Does anyone know anything about hte other products.. from searches on the internet it seems like PS in general is used for stress-relieve and mind/memory enhancement.

Get the one from ProSource.PS has been shown in studies to lower exercise induced cortisol up to 30%.But it must be taken about an hour b4 a workout at 800mg.With 2 caps from ProSource you will get 1100mg!!Before bed you can cut the amount in half,about 400mg,to keep cortisol lower while asleep which will enhance the work of GH secreted naturally while getting some shut eye.The product you have now is a waste.

 

[MonStar1023]

Are you serious you really think its a waste? What the fuck!!?? I spent $60 for nothing!!??
FUCK!

Sorry Mon...but yes,100mg per cap ain't gonna do much to suppress cortisol unless you take 6-8 at a time.Can you bring it back?

Looks promising....

Back in 1993 I read several studies on the above. It really looked like a promising compound, but the amount need to produce a desired effect is HUGE. I was surprised when Champion Nutrition came out with it back in 1996.

I agree with bodyfx, 100 mg will not do shit (unless you eat half the bottle a day).
