For ALL oral AS users: Must Read!

If the active ingredient of grapefruit juice can be identified and isolated, drugs might be made more effective--and less expensive per useful dose. Adding grapefruit's CYP3A4 blocker to a pill could also assure a set dosage, an advantage, because people naturally vary 10-fold in how much of a drug they absorb. "It will make a lot of difference in the way people take drugs," predicts Raymond Woosley, a pharmacologist at Georgetown University Medical Center

I can see the drug companies lining up to buy the patent on this. They'll stash it away in a drawer somewhere to ensure a continued higher than necessary consumption of their products.

Such a breakthrough is clearly a threat to their bottom line.

now i dont even swollow my orals like that i usually put them under my tongue and let them desolve is this ok or would i be better of taking down with juice???

80% of drugs taken sublingually actually end up being swallowed anyway.

Is there a set amount needed? Would eating half a grapefruit work?

From what I've been reading 2-4 ounces with your oral will do the job quite nicely.

I am trying to loacate a product called "Narginin" which is the extract in tablet form. When I do, I will post it here.

About two years ago I read a good article about that same subject. There was a study done with patients going under anesthesia. They studied people who drank grapefruit juice on a regular basis and those that did not. They found that the people that drank grapefruit juice on a regular basis needed much less medication to be put to sleep and much less medication to wake up. It was a great article.

KICK-ASS!

Thanx for whomever made this a sticky!

Hey bro's....GREAT NEWS for the time-being. I found out that a supplement called "bioperine" increases oral absorption of "drugs/other supplements" when taken at the same time!!! Bioperine comes from "black pepper extract".

From Beyond-A-Century: BIOPERINE(r) is a 95% piperine extract from the black pepper plant that is thermogenic and enhances the absorption of nutrients from the gastrointestinal tract. In 5mg doses, Bioperine enhanced the blood levels and bioavailability of a wide range of nutrients, both fat & water soluble. Powder should be mixed with other nutrients. 1 gram, $2.00. Code 866.0

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

BIOPERINE(r) 10mg tablets, 120 tabs, $7.20 Code 866.5

CHeap-as-hell !!! Until I find out more about "grapefruit" extract, this seems like a great find! Hell, all the cash we spend on orals (especially anavar/primobolan)...how could you NOT want to use this in conjunction???

Let's keep this rolloin'....maybe we will be able to find the grapefruit extract as well! This DOES sound very promissing though!

I dont use ROIDS yet based on advise I receved in this here forum but I do take Myoplex. Is it going to be better if I take Myoplex with Grapefurit Juice or OJ or something?
