OXYSTORM® N.O. Explosion -Red Spinach 9% Extract! No Oxalates!


NEW! Barlowe's Herbal Elixirs now proudly offers OXYSTORM® N.O. EXPLOSION, a high potency standardized extract of Red Spinach (Amaranthus Dubius) which contains fifty (50) times the nitrate in Beet Juice and no Oxalates. This product greatly increases N.O. (Nitric Oxide) production, greatly increasing blood flow to all parts of the body! Bottled in Glass! No Stearates! No Fillers! No Junk! The certificate of analysis (COA) of N.O. Explosion is shown above.
OXYSTORM® N.O. EXPLOSION is one of the richest sources of nitrate there is. A patent-pending production process delivers the highest nitrate content ingredient from the leaves of red spinach, 9% or 9000 mg per 100 g, with more than five times the amount of nitrate as beetroot powder and more than 50 times that in beet juice. This product is 100% water-soluble, Oxalate free, sugar free and has a neutral pH. Additionally, it is an excellent source of potassium while being non-GMO and Kosher and Halal certified.
***These vegetable-derived capsules (Vegan, Kosher and Halal certified) are filled on slow speed equipment and only pure, unadulterated herbal extract is contained in the capsules. There are no magnesium stearates, fillers, gelatin, silicates, gluten, corn, wheat, rice, yeast, starch, titanium dioxide, artificial colors, artificial flavors or preservatives. Capsules produced with high speed equipment in herbal and dietary supplement "factories" generally contain several other ingredients, including powdered lubricants called STEARATES (which can greatly diminish an herb or supplement's absorption into the body). Check their labels! Barlowe also bottles his products in glass as he believes chemical vapors can vent from plastic containers and contaminate the contents and that glass is better for the environment.
CAUTION: This extract is generally safe, but it is potent and should be utilized with care. This product is for dietary use. If unexpected side-effects occur, discontinue use immediately! The above statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). This product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.
DIRECTIONS FOR USE: Take two or three capsules an hour before activity without food. Blood levels of N.O. Explosion are highest approximately one hour after ingestion, but it does stay in the bloodstream for up to 8 hours. If taken on a daily basis, take one capsule in the morning and two capsules in the evening. For some people, dosage may need to be increased as results and usage amounts vary based on body type and weight.

Dosing L-Citrulline for Circulation Support, Erectile Dysfunction and Sports Performance




To supplement L-citrulline for circulatory health or to alleviate erectile dysfunction, take 1,000 mg of citrulline, three times a day with meals, for a total daily dose of 3,000 mg. L-citrulline does not need to be taken with meals, however.

To supplement for circulatory health with a citrulline malate supplement, take 1.76 g of citrulline malate for every 1 gram of citrulline you would normally take.

To supplement L-citrulline to enhance sports performance, take 6,000 – 8,000 mg of citrulline malate about an hour before exercise.

Ergo-Log Excerpt: Mix of propionyl-L-carnitine and L-arginine improves erection




Give men with erection problems 250 mg daily of propionyl-L-carnitine [structural formula shown below] together with 2500 mg L-arginine and their sex life will improve. Researchers at the Sapienza University of Rome discovered this when they did experiments with 54 men aged between 35 and 75.


Most of the test subjects indicated that they would like to continue using the supplement. Few side effects were observed.


"In addition to first-line treatment in selected patients, the formulation tested may have a role as adjuvant therapy", the researchers conclude.

Ergo-Log Excerpt: How cacao helps heart and blood vessels function better




More endurance athletes than you'd think use phenol-rich cacao as an effective performance enhancer. A Japanese animal study, published recently in PLoS One, shows how cacao works. The flavan-3-ols in cacao boost the activity of nitrogen monoxide or NO in the blood vessels, and as a result improve the blood's ability to transport oxygen and nutrients to the muscles. The ergogenic effect of cacao probably reaches its maximum 1-2 hours after intake.

Combined L-citrulline and glutathione supplementation increases the concentration of markers indicative of nitric oxide synthesis



. 2015; 12: 27.
Published online 2015 Jun 10. doi:  10.1186/s12970-015-0086-7
PMCID: PMC4472409
PMID: 26097441

Combined L-citrulline and glutathione supplementation increases the concentration of markers indicative of nitric oxide synthesis

Abstract


Background

Nitric oxide (NO) is endogenously synthesized from L-arginine and L-citrulline. Due to its effects on nitric oxide synthase (NOS), reduced glutathione (GSH) may protect against the oxidative reduction of NO. The present study determined the effectiveness of L-citrulline and/or GSH on markers indicative of NO synthesis in in vivo conditions with rodents and humans and also in an in vitro condition.

Methods

In phase one, human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) were treated with either 0.3 mM L-citrulline, 1 mM GSH (Setria®) or a combination of each at 0.3 mM. In phase two, Sprague–Dawley rats (8 weeks old) were randomly assigned to 3 groups and received either purified water, L-citrulline (500 mg/kg/day), or a combination of L-citrulline (500 mg/kg/day) and GSH (50 mg/kg/day) by oral gavage for 3 days. Blood samples were collected and plasma NOx (nitrite + nitrate) assessed. In phase three, resistance-trained males were randomly assigned to orally ingest either cellulose placebo (2.52 g/day), L-citrulline (2 g/day), GSH (1 g/day), or L-citrulline (2 g/day) + GSH (200 mg/day) for 7 days, and then perform a resistance exercise session involving 3 sets of 10-RM involving the elbow flexors. Venous blood was obtained and used to assess plasma cGMP, nitrite, and NOx.

Results

In phase one, nitrite levels in cells treated with L-citrulline and GSH were significantly greater than control (p < 0.05). In phase two, plasma NOx with L-citrulline + GSH was significantly greater than control and L-citrulline (p < 0.05). In phase three, plasma cGMP was increased, but not significantly (p > 0.05). However, nitrite and NOx for L-citrulline + GSH were significantly greater at 30 min post-exercise when compared to placebo (p < 0.05).

Conclusions

Combining L-citrulline with GSH augments increases in nitrite and NOx levels during in vitro and in vivo conditions.

Guns of Steel Hot Action Pre-Training Liquid with D3PA Advanced Muscle Activator - Mind Blowing Pump - Made in USA


From the manufacturer:

HOT ACTION PRE-TRAINING LIQUID WITH D3PA

ADVANCED MUSCLE ACTIVATOR

GET READY TO BLAST YOUR ARMS LIKE NEVER BEFORE!

Guns of Steel® Hot Action Pre-Training Liquid, formulated with D3PA, Caffeine and Arginine instantly primes your muscles for the ultimate pump. A powerful surge of heat immediately activates muscle responsiveness, fueling the most intense workouts with an unbelievable blast of power like nothing you’ve ever felt before. Your Pump Will Never Be the Same!

HOW TOPICAL PRODUCTS WORK

Your skin is the largest organ of your body, designed to protect against external harms, regulate body heat, and manage nutrient levels and water loss. It’s composed of 3 layers:
  • The epidermis, the outermost layer, provides a waterproof barrier and creates our skin tone.
  • The dermis, beneath the epidermis, contains tough connective tissue, hair follicles, and sweat glands.
  • The deeper subcutaneous tissue (hypodermis) is made of fat and connective tissue.
For a topical product to work it not only has to penetrate the skin but get absorbed too.
Skin Penetration represents the amount of a topically applied ingredient that exists between the top layer and bottom layer of your skin, during penetration the body does not yet absorb the ingredient, and it cannot affect the body systems.
Skin Absorption occurs when the topically applied ingredient penetrates the skin barrier.
The active ingredients in SteelFit® products are permeable, meaning they both penetrate and are absorbed by skin cells where they are processed and circulated.
That heat and tingle when you apply the products is actually the active ingredients increasing energy to the topical area, allowing the ingredients to absorb more efficiently and also sending signals to that area, hence spot reduction.

PROVEN ACTIVE INGREDIENTS

Dithiolane-3-Pentanoic Acid (D3PA): A powerful Antioxidant, D3PA is a vasodilator that stimulates skin cells to produce Nitric Oxide, increasing blood flow and bringing nutrients to the applied area.
Resistem: Helps metabolism and fast cell regeneration by maintaining Creatine Kinase Activity.
L-Citrulline: A naturally occurring Amino Acid that helps increase the supply of ingredients the body needs to make certain proteins and helps open veins and arteries to improve blood flow.
L-Arginine: An Amino Acid that is converted in the body into Nitric Oxide. Nitric Oxide causes blood vessels to open wider for improved blood flow. L-arginine also stimulates the release of growth hormone, insulin, and other substances in the body.
INGREDIENTS:      
Aqua (Water/Eau), Glycine Soja (Soybean) Oil, Methyl Salicylate, PEG-40 Stearate, Propylene Glycol, Glyceryl Stearate, PEG-400, Methyl Nicotinate, PEG-100 Stearate, Alcohol Denat.
