19-norandrostenediol
Information
What is it and where does it come
from?
19-norandrostenediol (19-diol) is the moderately anabolic base
of the steroid Deca-Durabolin. In many countries around the world, 19-diol has
been sold to athletes as a indictable steroid.
It was only allowed to be sold in the United States after new legislation
made it legal to sell it as a nutritional supplement, along with DHEA,
androstenedione, and others. 19-diol is a long-acting and potent muscle builder
that produces rapid recovery.
2. What does it do and what scientific studies give evidence to
support this?
19-diol latches onto steroid receptors longer than testosterone does. It
is frequently preferred over testosterones because it does not have as many
androgenic side effects, such as increased body hair growth, deepened voice, and
male pattern baldness. Studies show that one can sustain nortestosterone levels
for up to ten times longer with 19-diol versus some previous products that
enhanced testosterone levels. It is also expected to convert to nandrolone at a
rate three times greater than norandrostendione. Nandrolene does not convert to
testosterone as androstenedione does. What does all this mean? Basically,
19-norandrostendiol has been reported to increase strength, initiate rapid and
massive muscle growth, and allow for faster recovery after working out. It is so
new that no human studies exist yet.
3. Who needs it and what are some symptoms of
deficiency?
Bodybuilders, athletes, weight-trainers, and those who work out off and
on could benefit from the positive effects attributed to 19-norandrostenediol.
Since 19-diol is not an essential nutrient, deficiency is not associated with
it.
4. How much should be taken? Are there any side effects?
Most athletes who supplement with 19-norandrostenediol consume between
100 and 200 mg per day. Usually they take it in one large dose 45 minutes before
working out or training with a large glass of water. Do not exceed the
recommended dose. Pregnant or lactating women should not take 19-diol, nor
should individuals with an enlarged prostate. If you have a medical condition,
consult your physician before supplementing with 19-diol.
Target Hormone: 19Nortestosterone (nandrolone)
Molecular name of target
hormone: 17ß-hydroxy-19-nor-4-andro-sten-3-one
Target conversion: High
(15.76 %)
Conversion enzyme: 3-ß-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (3HSD)
DHT
conversion: none
Estrogenic effects: none
The advantages include no estrogen or DHT prior to conversion on the basis of
it being a diol version, and only a fifth the DHT conversion afterwards because
it has nandrolone as a target hormone. It's almost twice as anabolic as its
dione counterpart and in terms of gains can match 4-diol milligram for
milligram. It is of more use to the young bodybuilder because it converts to
nandrolone via the 3-beta enzyme assuring high conversion and not interfering
with testosterone production other than by negative feedback. Meaning in
moderate doses it will not stunt your natural testosterone too much and ensure a
faster recovery afterwards. That makes it definitely the most potent prohormone
to use by itself, but obviously the stacking is limited. If you were willing to
take the risk of mega-dosing and reach enzyme saturation, 19Nor is a
possibility, but since most of the questions weget about prohormones have a
severe undertone of fear where side effects are concerned, I don't think that
will be a popular stack. With 4-diol you have too strong of a competition, vying
for the same receptor enzyme. 5-diol is your best bet because of strong
anabolism despite low conversion and the fact that it can upgrade the 3-beta
enzyme assuring greater conversion.
