That's correct. Alpha-linolenic acid in flax seed is hardly converted in men.

HCG only? HCG converts to estrogen too. HCG only --> no natural endogenous test

Milk thistle/ Silymarin/ Silybin CONTENT Milk thistle for liver protection Milk thistle is very effective in treating amatoxin poisoning. It seems to decrease liver-related mortality in alcoholic and hepatitis B or C liver diseases. Silybin+vitamin E+ phospholipids produces some therapeutic...

Very well possible. So will olive oil, fish oil and orange juice.

Even intravenous glutamine does not do anything. So i wouldn't. Not impressed. Just take 30-40 g whey 0.5-1 hour pre workout. Don't know em. Don't have em in Holland. What's their content?

May possibly make you loose some (but certainly not a lot of) bodyfat. Cut down a few calories (like 1 sandwich/day) and you get the same effect. If you have a libido problem. Not for raising free testosterone. I would only take these if you have joint problems allready or if you have a family...

Only the last study shows an effect from chromium picolinate on body weight in women but not men. Did this mean muscle or fat.........? REFERENCES CR101)http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?cmd=Retrieve&db=pubmed&dopt=Abstract&list_uids=15467101&query_hl=1...

Stick to protein + creatine. When cutting, add BCAAs.

Effects of EGCG + caffeine in humans are inconsistent:

For this post i collected as much human in vivo studies as i could. All positive and negative studies were collected to be able to show a relevant overview. Note that there's probably an effective difference in tea and green tea. Since there is such an amount of these human in vivo studies, i...

Protein/amino acids is the most important following workout. And immensely more important taken before workout! Amino acids increase protein synthesis independently of carbs/insulin, and sensitivity to protein synthesis is highly elevated during workout (also for 24 h following workout) When you...

Training increases your body's sensitivity to protein synthesis for at least 24 h. You never (even while cutting) want to miss this anabolic moment for muscle gain. I suggest taking 0.4 g/kg simple carbs before/during workout, this will effectively decrease protein breakdown during/and for the...

NOLVADEX The way nolvadex works: Nolvadex can activate neural timing mechanism(s) that govern the intermittent release of endogenous GnRH. 20 mg nolvadex/day for 7 days in 6 normal men attenuates the ability of exogenous GnRH to increase the bio/immuno LH ratio further, which suggests the...

Glutamine doesn't even play any role whatsoever in protein synthesis: http://www.pubmedcentral.gov/pagerender.fcgi?artid=436742&pageindex=1#page

Better at what? During a cycle estrogen levels can be decrease by arimidex/femara. But not only estrogen levels are changed while using AIs. IGF-1 levels drop, and test is elevated. The net effect on body composition, protein synthesis and metabolism are 0. Arimidex PCT will increase natural...
