With the onset of new designer steroids
such as Superdrol and Halodrol, people are having larger and larger
problems to deal with that range from a decreasing lipid profile to
heightened blood pressure. Although these new drugs are great, they
often take such a toll on your body that they must be severely limited
in use until certain bodily profiles are improved. Often sifting through
the forums proves tedious in that supplement after supplement must be
bought in order to improve these various profiles, often costing you as
much as $80 to recover fully from a cycle that only cost you $80 in the
first place.
The ingredients in Anabolic Innovations Life Support have been
carefully reviewed and backed up by countless studies (which will be
added to the bottom of this writeup). Instead of putting in only basic
ingredients we have taken it to the next level and gone above and beyond
what is added by most supplement companies offering only minor
protection/support and put in large doses and special ingredients that
other companies don't offer. The best part about Anabolic Innovation's
Support? It will cost you as little as $1 per day with effective
dosages.
Milk Thistle Extract (standardized 80% Silymarin)
Milk thistle nutritionally supports the liver's ability to maintain
normal liver function. It has shown positive effects in treating nearly
every known form of liver disease, including cirrhosis, hepatitis,
necroses, and liver damage due to drug and alcohol abuse. Milk thistle
works due to its ability to inhibit the factors responsible for liver
damage, coupled with the fact it stimulates production of new liver
cells to replace old damaged ones.
Milk thistle has been proven to protect the liver from damage. The
detrimental effects of environmental toxins, alcohol, drugs and
chemotherapy may be countered with this valuable herb. The active
chemical component in the herb is silybin, which functions as an
antioxidant and is one of the most potent liver protective agents known.
Clinical trials have proven silybin to be effective in treating chronic
liver diseases and in protecting the liver from toxic chemicals. An
injection of silybin is a proven antidote for poisoning with the
Deathcap mushroom (Amanita phalloides).
Silybin is a part of the chemical structure of the flavoligan
silymarine. Milk thistle's hepatoprotective effects may be explained by
its function of altering the liver cell membrane structure, blocking the
absorption of toxins into the cells. Hepatoprotection by silymarin can
also be attributed to its ability to increase the intracellular
concentration of glutathione, a substance required for detoxicating
reactions in liver cells. Milk thistle is also an antioxidant that is
more potent than vitamins C and E.
One animal study found that silymarin (an active compound in milk
thistle) worked as effectively as the cholesterol-lowering drug
probucol, with the additional benefit of substantially increasing HDL
("good") cholesterol. Further studies in people are needed.
NAC
Produced by the body, N-acetylcysteine (commonly called NAC) is a form
of the amino acid cysteine. Because it enhances the production of the
enzyme glutathione, one of the body's powerhouse antioxidants, NAC can
both stave off disease and play an important role in boosting the immune
system. Studies have shown that glutathione levels are often reduced in
people with certain conditions related to the immune system.
For more than three decades, NAC has been used as a mucolytic ("mucus
dissolving") agent to help break up the thick mucus often present in
people suffering from chronic respiratory ailments. When administered
intravenously, NAC has also proved invaluable in the treatment of
acetaminophen overdose; it appears to protect the liver from this
potentially toxic substance. Now widely available in supplement form,
NAC is currently being recommended for preventing and treating a wide
variety of ailments that may respond to its antioxidant properties. 3
Hawthorn Berry Extract (2% cratagic acid, 5% flavonoid glycosides)
Hawthorne Berries have been used since the 19th century to support the
heart, and to normalize cardiovascular functions. Today, Hawthorne
Berries are one of the most popular herbs used in Europe, and gaining
wider acceptance in the United States. Primary chemical constituents of
this herb include Vitamin C, flavonoids (quercetin, quercetrin),
glycosides, proanthocyanidins, anthocynaidins, saponins, tannins, and
cratetegin (most prevalent in the flowers, then leaves, then berries).
Hawthorne Berries appear to work best when taken as a preventative
herb, possibly helping reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease. With
its high content of bioflavonoids, Hawthorne Berries best support the
heart. Hawthorne increases the body's ability to utilize oxygen, and the
heart's ability to utilize calcium. This herb can actually help
regulate both high and low blood pressure, in addition to slowly
breaking down cholesterol and fat deposits in the body. The
bioflavonoids help strengthen the contractive force of the heart, and
gently dilate & relax the coronary blood vessels, improving overall
circulation. For this reason, Hawthorne Berries have been used to lower
high blood pressure & high cholesterol, as well as increase low
blood pressure.
When used to support weight loss programs, Hawthorne Berries help
reduce water retention by expelling excess salt from the body. This
botanical has also been known to reduce nervous tension, alleviate
insomnia and aid digestion. Hawthorne can also be used to strengthen
joint lining, collagen and spinal discs. 4
Policosonol
Heart attack and stroke have been associated with high levels of a type
of cholesterol known as low-density lipoprotein (LDL) ("bad"
cholesterol) and low levels of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) ("good"
cholesterol). Reversing these trends can lower the risk for these and
other artery-related diseases.
Policosanol is a dietary supplement that can normalize cholesterol as
well or better than drugs, without side effects. Efficacy and safety
have been proven in numerous clinical trials, and it has been used by
millions of people in other countries. Policosanol lowers
LDL-cholesterol and raises protective HDL-cholesterol. This compares
favorably with cholesterol-lowering drugs which have the drawback of
side effects such as liver dysfunction and muscle atrophy. Policosanol
is free of these side effects.
What makes policosanol exciting is that it has other actions against
heart disease in addition to lowering cholesterol. Like statin drugs,
policosanol helps stop the formation of artery lesions. This was proven
in studies on rabbits fed a diet designed to create high cholesterol.
One of policosanol's important actions is to inhibit the oxidation of
LDL. Oxidized LDL is dangerous. It promotes the destruction of blood
vessels by creating a chronic inflammatory response. Oxidized LDL can
also provoke metalloproteinase enzymes. These enzymes promote blood
vessel destruction, partly by interfering with HDL's protective effect.
Studies show that rats treated with policosanol have fewer foam cells,
reflecting less inflammatory response causing less blood vessel
destruction.
Another action of policosanol is to reduce the proliferation of cells
on the lining of the arteries. Healthy arteries are lined with a smooth
layer of cells so that blood can race through with no resistance. One of
the features of diseased arteries is that this layer becomes thick and
overgrown with cells. As the artery narrows, blood flow slows down or is
blocked completely. Policosanol was tested for its ability to stop the
proliferation of these cells. According to the results, policosanol's
ability to stop cell overgrowth "is in agreement with the
antiproliferative effects reported for other lipid-lowering drugs, such
as most of the statins."
Policosanol also inhibits the formation of clots, and may work
synergistically with aspirin in this respect. In a comparison of aspirin
and policosanol, aspirin was better at reducing one type of platelet
aggregation (clumping together of blood cells). But policosanol was
better at inhibiting another type. Together, policosanol and aspirin
worked better than either alone. A related effect is that significant
reductions in the level of thromboxane occur in humans after two weeks
of policosanol. Thromboxane is a blood vessel-constricting agent that
contributes to abnormal platelet aggregation that can cause a heart
attack or stroke. 5
Celery Seed Extract (Standardized 3nB)
Throughout much of history, celery and celery seed has been used
primarily as a homeopathic and medicinal herbs. Not until relatively
recent history has celery been used for culinary purposes. The flavor of
celery is somewhat herbal and astringent, but it has a succulent, crisp
texture. Because of its low-calorie count, celery is a favorite diet
food
Celery seeds are mainly used in connection with rheumatism, arthritis,
and gout. They are especially useful in rheumatoid arthritis where there
is an associated mental depression. Additional benefits of celery seed
may include the following:
Lowers Blood Pressure and Cholesterol?- In one study, at the University
of Chicago, lab animals who were given a daily dose of a compound
extracted from celery seed experienced a 12 percent reduction in their
blood pressure over a four-week period. The same study indicated it may
reduce artery-clogging cholesterol. A traditional Vietnamese remedy for
high blood pressure.
Healthy Joints? - celery has been used and suggested as an alternative
therapy for arthritis, rheumatism, and gout. Celery seed is most often
taken to aid in the maintenance of healthy joints. Celery seeds have
been found to have anti-inflammatory properties that reduce swelling and
pain around the joints. It is suitable for anyone who wishes to reduce
the degeneration of body joints that commonly occurs with age. Celery
seed can also ease joint discomfort that occurs due to inflammation and
is, in fact, used for the relief of symptoms of conditions such as
arthritis.
Antiseptic Properties? - Celery seed has an antiseptic property that
makes it useful to the health of the urinary tract and a diuretic
property to help relieve fluid retention. Celery seed aids in the
elimination of uric acid. These properties can prove useful in cases of
bladder disorders, cystitis, and kidney disorders. Celery seed helps
with urinary tract infection in women.
Acts as A Diuretic? - The herb contains a diuretic substance that also
benefits arthritis and gout patients, as it helps to flush away the uric
acid crystals that build up around the joints. Celery helps shed water
weight.
Anxiety?- Celery seed can help soothe the nerves and relieve pain.
Aids Digestion? - Consuming celery seed in food also aids in the digestion of protein.
Cancer Agents? - Contains eight different families of anti-cancer
compounds, such as phthalides and polyacetylenes, that detoxify
carcinogens, present in high concentrations in cigarette smoke. 6
Idebenone
Idebenone is an analog of the very popular CoQ10. In most respects,
Idebenone shares its traits with Coenzyme Q10 and like Coenzyme Q10 is
might be useful for aging. It differs from it in some important ways,
which may make it more useful. Under certain circumstances, Coenzyme Q10
(CoQ10) may become a pro-oxidant. These circumstances are conditions in
which hypoxia or lack of oxygen occurs.
In cases of shock, heart attack, stroke, or poor circulation, CoQ10
auto-oxidizes and unleashes massive amounts of various free radicals
that damage delicate tissues and because CoQ10 is necessary for electron
transport and ATP (chemical energy) production, cellular death may
ensue. Idebenone, on the other hand, suppresses free radicals and
continues ATP production in hypoxic situations. This may make it a
useful supplement for individuals at risk for those conditions.
Other important traits of Idebenone not shared by CoQ10 include the
ability to raise the brain's serotonin levels like the SSRI
antidepressants (Prozac) and it also increases the brain levels of nerve
growth factor. Another trait is to protect the myelin sheath from
damage as well as the mitochondria that has important implications in
Multiple Sclerosis.
The ability to enhance serotonin production occurs even under less than
optimal conditions such as those whose diet contains little
L-Tryptophan.
Naturally, nerve growth is a desired result in many conditions. In
Alzheimer's Disease, for example, several studies show dose dependent
improvements when compared to placebo as measured by different tests
when taking Idebenone. An abstract said, "Treatment with idebenone was
found effective on memory, attention, and orientation and in slowing
down the natural progressive worsening of the disease."
The following conditions may benefit from Idebenone: Brain enhancement
as a nootropic, stroke, Alzheimer's, dementia, surgical candidates,
cardiovascular, MS, other demyelination conditions, aging, depression,
Friedreich's Ataxia, and liver problems.7
Saw Palmetto Extract (>45% fatty acid European pharmaceutical grade powder)
Saw Palmetto is a small, palm-like plant native to North America.
Native Americans and early American settlers used the berries to treat
problems associated with the genitals, urinary tract and reproductive
system. This herb is called the "plant catheter" due to its therapeutic
effect on the neck of the bladder and the prostate in men. Saw Palmetto
is widely used in Germany, Canada, the United Kingdom and now the U.S.
for nutritionally benefiting the prostate and urinary tract. It has been
marketed as an aphrodisiac for both men and women.
The active constituents are volatile oil, steroidal saponin, tannins,
and polysaccharides. Saw Palmetto is a tonic, and is one of the few
herbal remedies that are considered to be anabolic - it strengthens and
builds body tissues.
For men it treats an enlarged and weakened prostate gland. It has shown
significant action in treatment of conditions associated with benign
prostatic hypertrophy (BPH). Saw palmetto extract works to prevent
testosterone from converting into dihydrotestosterone, the hormone
thought to cause prostrate cells to multiply, leading to an enlarged
prostate. It is chiefly used as a diuretic and to tone the bladder by
improving urinary flow, and relieving strain. Regular use of saw
palmetto may decrease urinary frequency, especially during the night, by
allowing complete bladder expulsion and reducing inflammation of the
bladder and enlarged prostrate.
Saw palmetto inhibits androgen and estrogen receptor activity and may
be beneficial for both sexes in balancing the hormones. Because of it
hormonal effects it can aid the thyroid in regulating sexual development
and normalizing activity of those glands and organs.
Women have used the herb to stimulate breast enlargement and lactation
as well as treating ovarian and uterine irritability. It has been
prescribed for reduced or absent sex drive, impotence and frigidity.
Because of its potential hormonal effects, pregnant women should not use
it.
The berries have been recommended in treatment of diseases that deprive
the body of strength and growth. Preliminary evidence exists to also
suggest saw palmetto may also aid those suffering from thyroid
deficiency. Saw palmetto is a good expectorant for use in clearing chest
congestion and can be used to treat coughs, asthma, and bronchitis.
It has also been used to stimulate appetite, improve digestion, nourish
the nervous system and increase the assimilation of nutrients to the
body. The berries have long held a reputation as sexual stimulants and
aphrodisiacs. The largest use today is as a supplement for reducing
enlarged prostate glands, treating urinary tract problems and for
improving body strength.8
Nettle Root (10:1 Urtica dioica)
The roots of stinging nettle may be used to relieve the symptoms of
benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) -- a non-cancerous enlargement of the
prostate gland. The prostate is part of the male reproductive system.
The urethra, the tube that carries urine out of the body, passes through
the prostate gland. For most men, BPH is a normal part of aging. An
enlarged prostate may cause men to have trouble starting or maintaining
urination, need to urinate more often, have urine leaks, or need to
urinate during the night. Stinging nettle root contains chemicals that
may prevent or delay the growth of prostate cells by interfering with an
enzyme. In several studies, nettle root products have shown general
effectiveness for relieving the symptoms of BPH. Frequently, it is
included with other herbals such as pygeum and saw palmetto in "Prostate
Formulas". It has also been known to reduce the levels of serum Sex
Hormone Binding Globulin, which binds to testosterone in the blood and
renders it inactive.
Nettle root is also being studied for potential anti-inflammatory and
blood pressure lowering effects. In studies of laboratory animals,
nettle root extract seemed to reduce artificially-produced inflammation.
How it worked is not known. Results from other laboratory studies may
show that nettle root may relax blood vessels and stabilize the force of
heartbeats. Both of these effects may contribute to lowering blood
pressure.
