[Pumping Iron]

METHOXYISOFLAVONE


Can you think of any supplement other than Creatine that dramatically increases muscle mass, enhances strength, energy, and produces a leaner more muscular body? Such a quest has been going on for quite some time now. For some, anabolic steroids was the answer. These "miracle substances" inserted the super-potent male hormone testosterone into the body and the body reacted by recovering faster from workouts, building more quality muscle than previously thought possible, and causing fat to burn quicker. Wow! Great, perfect???until the side effects came to light. This artificial testosterone caused more than just the muscles to grow. All the inner organs of the body also grew, causing "turtle belly". Not to mention other possible androgenic side-effects like sodium retention, acne, gynecomastia, aggression, hypertension, cardiovascular disease, palpitations, enlarged heart, virilization, cancer, decreased blood clotting ability, headaches, anxiety, depression, impotence, stomach aches, jaundice, muscle tears, enlarged prostate, premature hair loss, stunted growth, immune system suppression, insomnia, sterility, and anaphylactic shock???just to name a few. Well, maybe anabolic steroids aren't the best idea after all. Darn???what else?



The search for a supplement that would produce the highly anabolic and sought-after steroid-like effects of faster muscle growth, recovery, and fat-burning, yet avoid the androgenic steroid-like side effects (acne, male-pattern baldness, prostate enlargement, etc.) has been an impossible feat???until now! Meet the Flavone family: 7-Isopropoxyisoflavone (Ipriflavone) and 5-methyl-7-methoxy-isoflavone (Methoxyisoflavone). These powerful anabolic compounds have just been brought to market by several pioneering companies. The results thus far are highly impressive to say the least. In fact, they may just be the sports supplements that everyone's been looking for!


These flavones were originally discovered and patented by a Hungarian company, which we'll discuss further in a minute. The funny thing is, other than researching the compounds and becoming very impressed by them, they just sat on them and did???well, pretty much nothing as far as marketing and making them available to the population. This mysterious compound that could have revolutionized bodybuilding over 30 years ago, instead was locked up with a patent that wouldn't expire until 1997. Luckily the work they did laid the foundation for what we have today! When the patent expired and researchers read the paperwork-what they found out was shocking! Not only did 5-methyl-7-methoxy-isoflavone and 7-Isopropoxyisoflavone increase protein synthesis and increase lean mass, but they also reduced body fat, lowered cholesterol levels, promoted endurance, an increased state of vitality, and increased the body's ability to use oxygen! In other words, these are the perfect anabolic supplements???without the negatives of steroids!


How much should be taken? Are there any side effects?



The recommended serving size of 5-methyl-7-methoxy-isoflavone so far is anywhere from 400mg to 800mg taken in a split dosage twice throughout the day (200mg - 400mg twice daily). Ipriflavone is recommended to be taken in the range of 250mg to 1250mg per day in divided doses.


What are some Awesome Supplements to Stack with these Flavones?



Methoxyisoflavone and/or ipriflavone work very well by themselves. However, if you really want to peak out your gains try stacking Methoxyisoflavone with Protein. Methoxy works incredibly well with protein because forces nutrients such as glycogen and protein into muscle cells. If there is no protein to use, it will not be as effective. So remember to take your Methoxy with protein for best results. A recent breakthrough that is similar to Methoxyisoflavone has just been released to the market by several pioneering supplement companies. The compound? Ecdysterone! Ecdysterone works synergistically with methoxyisoflavone to increase protein synthesis, maintain a positive nitrogen balance and keep your body in an anabolic state with no hormonal interactions whatsoever. Also, if you want to increase your testosterone levels naturally to the max, then try stacking them with ZMA. Make great gains!

i have yet to try this, i dont think this is a great choice IMHO.

Thanks tank..
so it should be taken with ecdyvonne? i going to try the methoxy pretty soon, and i'll post the results...anyone else have an opinion or info, anything is appreciated....

I think you are wasting your money. The last sentence about ZMA increasing testosterone is proof positive.

Agree with TP. Methoxy was dropped by most good companies. It proved to be expensive. Later stuidies showed (can't give details as I'm clueless) that you'd need quite a lot of Methoxy to make any differences.

You can find some discounted products out there because it just didn't sell well.

What I did find out was the protein quality in the Methoxy products was pretty good.

So forgetting the Methoxy thing, you can get some good quality protein at a discounted price.

That seems to be the only truth behind the whole Methoxy debate.

Dunno about ZMA. I took it for 2 month solid. It did nothing for me. Or at least nothing for me that I noticed.

I found the methoxy worked good on a cut. I never tried it during a bulk though. I have no idea how much it costs since I got mine for free.

Thanks for the info...
I got some off ebay for real cheap, 5 twinlab bottles for $10, so i figured what the hell you know...
