TEST FACTOR™ is the result of a 2-year initiative by
the research and development team at Molecular Nutrition, aimed at identifying
the most efficacious natural hormone support ingredients, and synergizing them
into one complete formula for increasing total and free (bioavailable)
testosterone and regulating estrogen. The goal was not only to create a product
that would increase serum testosterone levels, but also one powerful enough to
support a full spectrum of androgen action including increased protein synthesis
rates (muscle mass), improved energy/vitality, extended muscle endurance,
enhanced nutrient delivery (vasodilation), and heightened libido/sexual potency.
While the resulting formula includes some of the most effective androgen support
supplements known to science, completion of the project was only possible with
the addition of two groundbreaking new ingredients (RC Pensis™ and
ActeoFIT™), introduced to sports nutrition here for the first time.
Introducing RC Pensis™
TEST FACTOR™ is the first testosterone-support
supplement in the world with RC Pensis™, patent-pending Ruta
Chalepensis extract. Studies administering ruta chalepensis orally to male mice
have demonstrated a 365-476% increase in serum testosterone levels. Follicle
Stimulating Hormone (FSH) was also increased by approximately 400%, while
supplementation significantly increased testicular weight/volume and sperm
count. There is presently no other dietary supplement ingredient available that
has been shown to produce such strong changes in testosterone. Additional
peer-reviewed studies suggest ruta chalepensis may improve the
anabolic/anti-catabolic action of insulin, increase liver and muscle glycogen
stores, and increase nitric oxide (NO) production for stronger erections and an
enhanced “pump” effect during exercise.
Introducing ActeoFIT™
ActeoFIT™is a new family of patent-pending herbal
extracts standardized for the natural high-affinity Selective Estrogen Receptor
Modulator (SERM) ligand acteoside. There are dozens of studies supporting the
use of acteoside and its source herbs in the field of sports nutrition. For
example, one series of preliminary experiments with mice have demonstrated an
increase in endurance during exercise, along with inhibited creatine kinase and
improved glycogen stores. This may translate to better performance, along with
preserved muscle mass and energy (glycogen is the primary source of fuel during
exercise). Further still, hyperplasia and hypertrophy of muscle cell
mitochondria were observed without damage to the myofibril. This may support
muscle fiber growth (size and number), along with a significant anti-catabolic
(protein sparing) effect.
TEST FACTOR™ Helps:
-
Increase testosterone, reduce estrogen
-
Increase muscle mass and strength
-
Improve muscle endurance
-
Speed recovery
-
Reduce reaction time
-
Improve libido
-
Increase vascularity
-
Improve memory and cognition
