Yall know that 750mg CRYSTAL is like 1000-1100mg powder DNP? Crystal is much more dangerous.....not liking the questions im reading, sounding like people didnt research this stuff enough before using.
YOu need to know this shit well before you take it, trust me, ive had a bad allergic reaction to it, only from jumping from 400mg to 600mg powder ED.
It seems that this idea is highly debated. Some say crystal is stronger than powder and some say powder is stronger than crystal. A discussion on this issue took place on another board and in response a supplier increased the dosage of their crystal caps to 250mg from 200, because it was said that crystal was
weaker than powder and they offered to up the dosage.
Here is a copy paste of the start of the convo. Its an old ass study sited here, but I cannot find anything else contary to the info presented other than conjecture based on personal belief.
Crystal DNP is also called the "sodium salt" of DNP since the DNP in it is attached to sodium. One quarter of the weight of crystal DNP is the salt. Back in 1933, Tainter ML, Stockton AB, and Cutting WC researched DNP at Stanford University. In one of their studies entitled "Use of dinitrophenol in obesity and related conditions: a progress report" (J Am Med Assoc 1933; 101: 1472?1475) they state that "The drug was used in the form of dinitrophenol itself or as the sodium salt. Capsules containing 100mg. of the sodium salt, or its equivalent of 75 mg. of the acid [powder], were used throughout. The two forms were therapeutically indistinguishable, as was to be expected." Not only were no differences noted by these top researchers after the doses of the two kinds were adjusted for equivalency, but they didn't expect a difference either. Consider the myth dispelled. As many of us who have taken both kinds know, there is NO difference once you adjust the dose. For the same effect, you have to take more of the crystal or less of the powder, since the powder is stronger (pure DNP).
Thus, the amount in crystal DNP is only 75% of the amount in pure DNP (400mg in crystal is only 300mg of actual DNP). Crystal will result in less weight loss mg per mg than the powder form of DNP simply because it contains less DNP for uncoupling oxidative phosphylation. Claims about crystal DNP being "better" are just marketing dribble. As the study explains, the two forms are therapeutically indistinguishable. Similarly, when people claim that the crystal form has less side effects it's simply because less DNP is being ingested, not because the crystal is somehow special.
