This is a little excerpt from my research into the various applications of DNP. One of the main problems that affect post-cycle muscle catabolism is T3(thyroxine) levels within the blood-stream. As we all well know T3 works through PROTEOLYTIC pathways. Steroids suppress TSH which in turn lowers T3 and T4 production in the thyroid gland. This reduction in TSH is one of the reasons why steroids are such efficient muscle builders. What happens POST-CYCLE??? TSH up-regulates, which in turn super-stimulates the thyroid into producing above normal levels of T3 and T4. This increase in thyroid hormones is VERY catabolic and is the main reason why people lose muscle post-cycle. What to do then? Simple. 200mg DNP/day will literally correct the problem. Symptom: Excessive production of T3 and T4 from the thyroid gland. Note: 80% of the bodies endogeneous T3 is produced from the conversion of the metabolically inactive T4 to the metabolically active T3 via the de-iodinase enzyme which basically "cleaves" off an iodine molecule. THIS IS KEY!!! DNP on the other hand DIRECTLY BLOCKS the production of T3 from T4 via the de-iodinase enzyme. Ingestion of 200mg DNP day will then SUPPRESS the OVER-STIMULATED thyroid gland back to normal physiological levels, therefore DRASTICALLY reducing thyroid hormone induced post-cycle muscle catabolism because T3 levels have been REDUCED to normal physiological levels. As a bonus, the reduction in your ATP stores because of the DNP is COUNTER-ACTED by an increase in the oxidation of triglycerides as an energy source, therefore eliminating any potential fat-gain from low post-cycle testosterone levels. DNP is also NON-HORMONAL, therefore it has no effect on HPTA recovery. Fact is, after cessation of DNP use post-cycle you will also reap the benefits of the "Anabolic Rebound Effect" which further lends credence to the use of DNp as a post-cycle ancilliary for the elimination of any post-cycle muscular losses.
