Cyclists & Asthma? ~20% Increased Protein Synthesis W/ Salbutamol, Another Reason its Abuse Cannot be Ignored

Image
Even if it is medically indicated, there's more and more evidence that using beta-2-agonists (esp. but not exclusively orally) could provide an unfair advantage to athletes: increased protein synthesis, increased mitochondrial neogenesis, established ergogenic effects,... If you've been following the news, you will be aware that the Tour de France Champion, Chris Froome, has been busted with elevated levels of the beta-2-agonists  Salbutamol  in his blood ( learn more ). Now, we could debate forever about whether the green light Froome just got is a case of double-standards or not, but that's not the purpose of this article, anyway. Rather, I want to explain why the claim that salbutamol, officially an asthma medication, wouldn't be a worthwhile doping agent is bullshit.

Albuterol + Caffeine May be a Promising and Safe (?) Anti-Obesity Stack!? 13% Acute Increase Energy Expenditure in Humans, Long-Term Muscle Gains & Fat Loss in Rodents

Image
You won't be able to peel off the fat in days on the "AC stack", but it's ability to help you burn 13% extra energy and ramp up protein synthesis will help. No, Ann G. Liu and her colleagues from the  Pennington Biomedical Research Center  and the  Louisiana State  University Health Sciences Center  are not totally out of their mind and after reading today's SuppVersity article you may even think that the idea of using prescription drug fat burners in children is odd, but not totally insane (considering the number of kids on Adderall & co). After all, the scientists latest study shows that albuterol with caffeine in dosages similar to those that have been previously approved for the treatment of asthma in children and adolescents, can safely increase thermogenesis in adults and will - at least in the rodent model - produce significant increases in lean body mass and reductions in fat mass without caloric restriction and on obesogenic (=fattening) ba...

Higenamine: PES Introduces New "Fat Burner" to the Market. Potent Thermogenic or Dangerous Stimulant?

Image
Image 1: The reformulated PES Alpha T2 contains higenamine , alpha yohimbine and 3.3-diiodo-l-thyronine I just received an advertisement email containing some information about the reformulation of PES popular fatburner Alpha T2 (make sure to read " T2 a Fat Burner for Bulking? " for some details on the thyroid stimulating properties of 3.5-diiodo-l-tyronine the metabolically more active "brother" of the 3.3.-diiodo-l-tyronine in PES Alpha T2) mentioning a compound that is advertised as "an all new beta-agonist", that would have been found to be "more effective" than synephrine. While this claim did not impress me at all, I took the time and dug up some information about "higenamine"... The adrenergic effects of higenamine ( Hig. demethylcoclaurine ) have been well established since the 1980s ( Park. 1984 ). In fact, the cardioactive benzylisoquinoline alkaloid isolated from Aconiti tuber has long been used as a cardiotoni...
