You may have heard recently about a new substance causing a real buzz in the sports nutrition industry called 5-Methyl-7-Methoxy-Isoflavone (or Methoxy for short).
Being touted as the biggest supplement discovery since Creatine, along with the amazing claims that go with it, Methoxy has a lot to live up to. Is it all just hype? Or has a natural supplement that produces highly anabolic effects finally arrived? Well, if reports from Methoxy users are any indication this “miracle flavone” is definitely going to establish a new standard in performance enhancement.
So, what is Methoxy and where does it come from? Funnily enough this new compound is actually not that new at all, in fact it’s origins date back a couple of decades. Back in 1977 a flavonoid research company called Chinoin (based in Hungary) developed a highly anabolic synthetic isoflavone to be used in the pharmaceutical and livestock industry. It showed great promise and a patent was filed, however the availability of anabolic steroids at the time sent the compound into obscurity.
It wasn’t until the early eighties that Methoxy re-emerged where it was extensively used with livestock (probably because it is virtually undetectable). Test results on animals were impressive to say the least, with increases in lean body weight ranging from 7-20% (with no change in feed composition). That takes us to the next question. How does Methoxy work? Scientists aren’t 100% sure but do know it revolves around protein utilization (it achieves this in half the usual time!), increased calcium, potassium and nitrogen retention, and it’s ability to lower that nasty hormone cortisol.
Because Methoxy effectively puts the body into an anabolic state you’re probably thinking side effects, right? Wrong! Tests have concluded the compound is totally non-hormonal in it’s actions, produces no androgenic side effects and has actually been shown to reduce body fat and cholesterol. So that means Methoxy increases muscle mass, reduces body fat and makes us healthier. What more could we wish for? ….. Quick results come to mind; no one likes to sweat it out for months and months before noticing any “significant” changes but you guessed it Methoxy’s got that covered too. It starts working immediately, in human studies 2-3kg increases in lean muscle were reported in just a few weeks.
Now you have the opportunity to experience these results for yourself. Methoxy is the latest (and maybe greatest) addition to the Syn-Tec range. Syn-Tec products are renown for quality and potency and Methoxy is no exception, in fact Syn-Tec have made a real effort to achieve the best results possible from this amazing substance by incorporating a specially manufactured softgel capsule with a unique high absorption delivery system.The Methoxy isoflavone is actually dispersed in rapid absorbing MCT Oil and contains the essential co-factors Taurine and Vitamins B6 and C to ensure complete and fast absorption.
