It is a plant sterol that sucks your money out of your wallet. Everything I am seeing on it tags it as a do nothing supplement.

Hi

I have to disagree with you, I have tried it.

It was discovered by farmers so I have heard, they gave it to cattle to improve lean mass (more meat) in the cows.

Its supposed to put the body into an anabolic state like a steroid but WITHOUT any side effects.

I had no side effects.

I took 600mg (3 caps daily) for 2 months and after about 2 weeks noticed a definate improvement in my size, its difficult to say for sure, but I will use it again. I have another bottle to use yet, I will wait a couple more months and repeat it again.

Methoxyisoflavone was originally discovered by a Hungarian company about 30 yrs ago. In animal studies, it supposedly increased lean muscle tissue mass, endurance factors, and anti-cortisol effects. The serving amounts ranged from 2000mg and on up, with no toxcity or side effects.

It doesn't say if it was orally ingested (powder,tablets) or subcutaneous (injection). Also, remember these were animal studies. There was the famous leptin study a couple of years ago where mice lost 20% body weight in 2 weeks. Lots of press and bru-hah-hah abouth the ultimate weight loss drug. Later, they found in human studies.....ready for this?.....nothing happened. Not an ounce of weigth was lost. Animal studies don't always match human results.

Does it work? In the form that reaches the store shelf, I really don't know myself.

Any other people tried this stuff yet?

I have tried it for three months. Didn't get anything out of it. But learned a valuable lesson on marketing, hehehe.

It was that stuff from Bio-Test and I think it was 200 or 400 mgs per tablespoon. Took three per day.

nothing will give u steroid results except steroids. i've found u cant expect much from things that do

i took 750 - 1000mg of Methoxy, via MethoxyPro, for one month, and saw no results. what it did do is make me feel ill almost every time i took it. once i became physically ill.

i've heard that it works well, and just as many times that it does nothing. its a toss up, and that was my experience w/ it
