    Does V12 include this dangerous substances?

    Im running low on creatine and researching to either buy swole or V12. I heard that Swole has Guanidinopropionic Acid (GPA) and according to this article http://www.t-mag.com/nation_articles/295naked.jsp its very dangerous.

    Does anyone that is using V12 or V12 turbo know if it is included?

    hmm what makes you say that? I read it and found it very informative and kinda scary. But then again I would like to hear the "other" side.

    So why do you think its full of shit?

    I heard that t-mag is in with biotest(?) a major competitor of syntrax. So basically it is trying to deface a competitors product. Something like that.

    T-mag IS Biotest

    There is still a lot of debate over GPA. If I remember correctly, there was a thread over at Avant where Par and others were debating it.

    Biotest seems like a lot of overpriced hype to me, but I love their articles.

    Hmm interesting, I didnt know that they are a competitor. That kinda makes sense why he said some of that stuff then...

    but does V12 include that substance in my original post? I know that Swole does.

    I cant remember if V12 has GPA or not. Check the write up on it at bulknutrition. I've used Swole and V12...V12 worked far better for me. Now I use Vitalstate Creatine Actijubes. They sent me some samples and its all Ive bought since. I love the stuff

    It might have something to do with the fact that the company just got delisted from the stock market and is now a penny stock... Not that this has anything to do with how good their product is, but it might explain why the "free sample" link doesnt work.

    premier,

    where did you see these product reviews for BioTest that you mentioned? or is it that you have never seen any review of their products? just wondering.

    We had discussion on both the Syntrax board and our own.

    Since then, Spook has designed a product that includes GPA, and his write-up covers the major concerns as well:

    V12 doesn't contain Guanidinopropionic Acid (GPA), BUT, it does contain Glycocyamine(G-amine) which the article says that it decreases the creatine intake to the muscles(G-amine may also decrease its uptake by muscles (Zugno et al., 2003).

    Ive had great success with it, can't complain yet.
