Nelson Montana said:The effects of the nutrients, of course, are well documented. The D arginine malate is the most absorbable form of NO2 which works on most guys as a nice pre-workout surge. We found that a little caffeine makes NO2 even more effective so we put a little guarana in it. There are plenty of studies on that.
But the most interesting ingredient is the Cassia Grandis -- also known as Carao. The studies done on it have been mostly by foreign sources with pretty informal testing but it's also used by the local doctors as a surefire cure for anemia -- yet it contains no iron. It's also used as an aphodesiac. Very interesting. (Then again, more blood where it's needed?) A few years back alot of the bros right here on EF were swearing by the stuff (some of the vets may remember) but it fell out of favor for one major reason. It came in a messy thick liquid and it smelled like a cancerous racoon's asshole! I mean, REALLY, REALLY nasty. It was not acceptable by any means. (Though some of the hardcore guys toughed it out).
What we used in the pills is a powedered extract which is more potent and less odorously offensive. Yeah, if you opened the pills and stuck your nose in it, it wouldn't be pleasant but you won't have to deal with that. Blood tests show an increase in RBC in most everyone who uses it. I'd be thrilled and honored in some of the bros here reported their results pre and post bloodtest. (And if anyone wants free samples to do such a test, call the factory! That ain't up to me.)
I wish I was still at the university with access to the phys lab. I was able to do my own hematocrit!
