    NO2

    hemodilation, nitric oxide - sorta like Viagra, then, but whole body? If it really works I wonder if it pumps up the old Love Pump as well!  ;) "Viagra works by inhibiting the degradation of a similar second messenger called cyclic GMP (caused by the production of nitric oxide) that also...

    HS:CRE

    woohoo! mine too. This will be an interesting experiment. I'm on my 12's this week (10's next week) so I guess it's good enough time to start taking it as soon as it arrives

    How much EPA per day

    fyi, keep in mind that a given amount of oil does NOT contain just EPA and DHA. There are other fats in the oil besides EPA and DHA. For example, the concentrated fish oil I take - one teaspoon is 4.5 grams of fat, 1.8g of that is EPA and 0.9g of it is DHA. So you have to check the...

    Fish Oil

    the ratio of EPA to DHA is important. As I understand it, the body can readily convert DHA to EPA if needed, however converting EPA to DHA is much more difficult. One recommendation was to look for a ratio of around 2:1 of EPA to DHA. NOW looks like it has a very good ratio

    AST VP2 Whey Isolate protein

    the research study they show is for whey vs casein. VP2 is whey just like Primer is whey. There's no magic in VP2, it's just AST marketing hype. And casein has it's place in protein supplementation too, which is why there is Driver

    Fish Oil vs. Flax Oil

    the omega-3 in fish oil is long-chain (EPA and DHA) which is the form your body uses and what you're trying to get from these oils in the first place. The omega-3 in flaxseed oil is short-chain (ALA) and your body has to process it into a long-chain before it can be used. Fish oil saves your...

    Fish Oil

    Steve, it's $70 for a 53 serving bottle (1 teaspoon per serving) of the liquid form. Capsules are a little more. I order it from www.searslabs.com. The price doesn't look quite so bad if you break it down by cost per gram of EFA's and compare to others, but still costs more than...

    Fish Oil

    I use Sears Labs pharmaceutical-grade since the PCB's and mercury are lower than the healthfood-grade fish oils. 1 teaspoon (or 4 capsules)  has 1800mg EPA and 900mg DHA. Keep capsules in the fridge and keep liquid form in the freezer to prevent/slow oxidation of the oil. Only buy fish oil...

    HS-CRE

    pre-ordered mine too to have it in time for the start of my second cycle. Compared to most supps it looks to have some proven science behind it and it's relatively cheap. Hard to pass up at least trying it for a cycle. As for minimum maintenance dose, one of Blade's posts suggested 3 to 5 grams...

    Enteric Coated Fish oil caps

    I'm taking the capsules from that Zone diet guy - Dr Barry Sears. They're pharmaceutical grade. Higher concentration of EPA and DHA (400mg/capsule 200mg/capsule respectively).And supposed to have have much lower concentrations of mercury, PCB's, and DDT, and lack of gastric distress. Of course...
