Gluthatione TAD 600

I was in Greece for a few days and spoke with a trainer, he told me TAD was used by many pro's to protect their liver and kidneys, improve the immune system and improve skin texture (androgenic compounds are very harsh on the skin as most will know) It also helps 

protect the hair (androgenic compounds and hair loss same story). It was a nice discussion. Most bodybuilders want to discuss topics about muscle grow, training, steroids and anti-estrogens, but taking injectable vitamin B12, Silymarin, Ketotifen, TAD, Selegiline etc is a bit unusual.

But how much we hate it, we will get older... a Muay Thai fighter once told me in the sauna, it doesn't matter if you smoke a package of cigarettes and drink a crate of beer every day when your 18, you'll have to pay your dues after your 40st year, when you are getting older. The same is true for many things that can wreck your body. Your body is your temple, and you never can get a new one. Regrets are a useless emotion. You should protect your body now!!

While most people just stick by using traditional cycles and compounds, competing athletes are trying new products. Of course the compounds that are being used change from country to country and depend on which nutritionist is advising you.

In the past I have posted some blogposts on topicals and this time I would like to examine an old French product called : Percutacrine Thyroxinique it was made by Laboratoires BESINS INTERNATIONAL and contains 10 ampoules of 2 ml with a percutaneous solution.

It was indicated for the symptomatic treatment of subcutaneous adipose tissue. Composition of the cutaneous solution. Dextrothyroxine sodium: 4 MG / 2ML

  • BENZYL SALICYLATE
  • GLYCEROL
  • ETHANOL
  • EUCALYPTUS ESSENCE
  • PROPYLENE GLYCOL
  • CAMPHOR

This French laboratory also markets other products for percutaneous absorption Percutacrine Androgenique (Andro Gel) and Progestogel and many others.

They are two big American brothers, Peter and David Paul called “The Barbarian Brothers” - Big, strong guys completely mad and full of steroids and being the first bodybuilders to workout wearing construction boots, tied on bandanas and torn tank tops or flannel shirts both inside and outside the gym.

Nowadays their haircuts, clothing, feather earrings and other jewelry, looks somewhat ridiculous and outdated, but in those years they were tough and trendsetting. But the real trend the Barbarians popularized was not one of trendy clothing or social posturing, but one of lifestyle and attitude.

When in the early eighties of the last century it became known that recombinant HGH would become available on the market, the expectations of athletes were high. Dan Duchaine had in his book Underground Steroids written an attractive description of the progress that could be achieved with recombinant human growth hormone (rhGH). No steroids were able to match that. This was also pretty much the general belief. Understandably, the release of the biosynthetic form of this hormone was eagerly awaited.

Ok, human growth hormone was already circulating on the [black] market, but that was hGH from the pituitary glands of deceased donors, also called cadaveric hGH. Now the real, identical biosynthetic growth hormone would be made available. Although the donor hGH is also identical, it has to be of course, but from the new recombinant product was expected a lot more.
