The science of 6-OXO

Muscle & Fitness, July, 2004

It's The Scientific Results That Go Beyond the Expectations of Every Serious Bodybuilder ...

When advanced bodybuilders think of ErgoPharm, they think of state-of-the-art prohormones--like the revolutionary product 1-AD. Most recently, ErgoPharm developed 6-OXO[TM]--a unique compound that has been shown in scientific literature to be a "suicide" inhibitor of the estrogen producing enzyme aromatase. In addition, it was believed that 6-OXO would also increase testosterone levels through manipulation of the body's natural hormonal feedback system. This was great news for bodybuilders who desired in-cycle and post-cycle estrogen management.

However, new research has revealed that the power of 6-OXO is even greater than had been anticipated, and therefore has even more to offer the competitive or serious bodybuilder. With the advent of 6-OXO, ErgoPharm founder, Patrick Arnold, has once again delivered a compound to the sport that is destined to become a staple in every bodybuilder's arsenal. In fact, no matter what level of development you've attained, it just might be the most effective supplement for maximizing your anabolic environment. Here's the deal ...

Science Serious Bodybuilders Can Use

A study on 6-OXO was recently completed by a prestigious clinical research organization. This study examined the blood hormone responses over a 3-week cycle of 600mg per day of 6-OXO. The study used 6 normal men aged 32-40, and in addition to tracking changes in sex hormone levels it also looked at common indicators of toxicity.

The results were very impressive. Total testosterone levels rose an average of 188%, while free testosterone levels rose an average of 226% over the course of the three weeks. The variability among the 6 subjects was quite low, and majority of the testosterone increase was acheived after only the first week. Not only that, but there was NO indication of acute toxicity and in some areas (cholesterol, liver function) health and function even improved!! Results from two of the six subjects are demonstrated below:

An Advanced Look At The Estrogen/Testosterone Connection

A decrease in estradiol (the bioactive form of estrogen) was seen, but unlike testosterone the change was not drastic--levels still remained within the low end of normal. The explanation for this is simple; 6-OXO acts to inhibit the aromatase enzyme and block the conversion of testosterone to estradiol. A consequence of this is a signal from the brain to increase production of testosterone to compensate for the blocked estradiol production. As testosterone levels increase, so do estradiol levels since more substrate has now become available for the aromatase enzyme. Basically, what has occurred is the establishment of a new baseline level of testosterone to maintain the body's normal levels of estradiol. This sort of hormonal response is in fact very desirable, as decreasing estradiol levels below normal can be detrimental.

The Clinically Proven Supplement For Serious Results

Finally, 6-OXO is the first and only product that is both an effective estrogen inhibitor AND a non-hormonal testosterone trigger. It's the product with the science everserious bodybuilder has been waiting for.

RELATED ARTICLE

* What: 6-OXO contains a natural compound that helps trigger the release of Luteinizing Hormone (LH). Recent data by a prestigious clinical research organization has shown that after 3 weeks of 600mg/day, test subjects averaged a 226% increase in free testosterone! 6-OXO also combats estrogen formation by inhibiting aromatase.

* Why: Having increased testosterone is a nobrainer--train harder and recover faster. But estrogen contributes to a host of unwanted side effects--water retention, gyno (bitch tits), testicular shutdown, and an overall smooth, soft look.

* Who: Any athlete interested in achieving a hard, lean physique. 6-OXO is for those that have been predictably disappointed by the hype promised by Tribulus and other non-hormonal testosterone boosters.

* When: Use between cycles as a "reset" button for your hormonal environment.
