19-Norandrostenedione
Information
1. What is it and where does it come
from?
19-Norandrostenedione is basically an androstene molecule
with a carbon atom missing in the 19th position. I know, I know you’d have to be
a chemistry major to figure that out. Well, to save you the trouble it’s
basically this: 19-norandrostenedione is converted by an enzyme (17-beta
hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase) into nandrolone in the body’s liver.
So, in essence, 19-norandrostenedione does not convert directly to
testosterone as androstenedione and androstenediol do. Instead it converts
directly to nandrolone, which is moderately anabolic. Anabolic properties can
help you gain muscle quick.
2. What does it do and what scientific studies give evidence to
support this?
Working much like its cousin, testosterone,
19-norandrostenedione studies show that 19-norandrostene may be even better than
any other legal testosterone precursor because it does not carry the same side
effects as more highly anabolic hormones. Some of the benefits of supplementing
with 19-norandrostenedione include avoiding the effects of DHT problems (male
pattern balding and prostate enlargement). This is great news for those who want
the muscle gains without the hormonal side effects!!! This is because of the
conversion to nandrolone instead of testosterone directly. Also, since
19-norandrostenedione uses the same enzyme to convert as androstenedione, they
work very well together which conserves your body’s enzyme use and maximizes
your hormonal conversion efficiency. Studies conducted on nandrolone show that
it is highly efficient compared to testosterone because it attaches to steroid
receptors easier and stays attached longer. The conversion rate (to testosterone
effects) is 5.61%, the same as androstenedione, but less than pure testosterone
(illegal). So, the trade-offs are: getting a little less anabolic steroid,
19-norandrostendione, but still getting awesome results with a much much lower
chance of side effects such as DHT problems, as compared to direct precursor.
3. Who needs it and what are some symptoms of deficiency?
You know who needs it bodybuilders, muscle men, and all out normal
dudes who want to experience HUGE gains, BIG results, and AWESOME power!
Seriously, this is a supplement that works. It’s chemically proven (as
testosterone’s cousin) to increase muscle mass and overall size of muscles very
quickly and effectively. Because it is not an essential nutrient, deficiency is
not an associated problem.
4. How much should be taken? Are there any side effects?
Androgenic products should only be supplemented by healthy males 21 years
old or older. Because women may be sensitive to androgens, it is not recommended
for women. Anyone with pre-existing hormonal dependencies (breast, prostate,
etc.) should check with a physician before supplementing with
19-norandrostendione. Research indicates that best results are observed with 100
mg twice per day (not to exceed). Because this is such new territory, no
long-term studies have been conducted on
19-norandrostendione.
