Ultimate? Maybe not. Energy booster? Definitely.
Dymetadrine Xtreme from AST is being touted as a "potent pre-workout
energy enhancer and metabolic synergist." So exactly what is
Dymetadrine Extreme? It sounds like a energy booster, and a fat
burner. It's actually a little of both. Take a look at what Dymetadrine
can do - as claimed by the manufacturer:
- Increase Energy
- Increase Fat Metabolism
- Increase Mental Focus
- Increase Muscle Strength
- Enhance Intensity
So is Dymetadrine as good as it sounds? Let's
find out.
The Dymetadrine Extreme Formula's Success "Secret"
Well, actually, it's no secret. Wanna know why
so many users have had great results with Dymetadrine Xtreme? It's
quite simple - what makes Dymetadrine tick is that it "taps
into your adrenaline pathways, and provides precursor substrates
for epinephrine production." If you're not sure what the heck
this means, keep reading, and we'll get to the bottom of this. :)
If you didn't know what epinephrine is, it's same
as adrenaline, which controls the fight or flight in humans, and
is the reason behind those super feats of strength that we hear
about - I'm sure you know what adrenaline is.
Inside Dymetadrine Xtreme - A Review Of The Ingredients
Let's take a look at the ingredients. Here are
the supplement facts:
Amount Per Capsule:
Ephedra Extract
(standardized for 20 mg ephedra alkaloids) 300 g
L-Phenylalanine 150 mg
L-Tyrosine 150 mg
Caffeine 100 mg
Willow Bark Extract 50 mg
Other ingredients: Magnesium Stearate, silica, gelatin.
Doesn't look that special huh? Looks like another
fat burner based on the good ol' ECA stack. You'll get a little
energy boost from the ephedrine. Let's forget about ECA stack here,
I've talked enough about it in other articles. Instead, let's take
a look at some of the other key ingredients, which are important
precursors to epinephrine:
L-phenylalanine - is a building
block for the various proteins that are produced in the body. L-phenylalanine
can be converted to L-tyrosine and subsequently to L-dopa, norepinephrine,
and epinephrine. It can also convert (through a separate pathway)
to phenylethylamine, a substance that occurs naturally in the brain
and can elevate mood.
L-tyrosine - is a another nonessential
amino acid (protein building block) that the body synthesizes from
phenylalanine. It's the precursor of several neurotransmitters,
including L-dopa, dopamine, norepinephrine, and epinephrine. Tyrosine
can help relief depression, and ease the effects of stress. Tyrosine
is also important to the structure of almost all proteins in the
body.
With this said, now you can see how Dymetadrine
Xtreme works to boost epinephrine productions and give you the energy
boost during workout. Once Dymetadrine does its job, let take a
quick look how epinephrine works to boost your energy.
Among the many different effects epinephrine has
on your body, one I found particularly interesting: Epinephrine
stimulates reactions in skeletal muscles. It binds to beta-adrenergic
receptors of skeletal muscle. This will stimulate adenylate cyclase
to produce cAMP. This, in turn, activates glycogen phosphorylase
and inactivates 6-phosphate for glycolysis. The stressful demands
imposed upon the body during the fight or flight response requires
ATP. This process of glycolysis generates the ATP.
Why I find this interesting? Simply because ATP
is the fuel that powers your muscle contractions. This is part of
the reason why Creatine is so important. Is it all coming together
for you now? Do you now see how L-phenylalanine and L-tyrosine in
Dymetadrine Xtreme help stimulate epinephrine, which in turn generates
ATP? Of course there's a lot more involved than what's listed here,
but I'm no scientist. :)
AST Dymetadrine Xtreme does hold up to its claims,
and many users have reported very positive results from using Dymetadrine
Xtreme.
A bottle of 100 capsules of Dymetadrine Xtreme
will cost you around $30 bucks. If you buy it online, you can get
it for around $22 bucks. Quite some savings.
