 From my experience, did it build muscle? Was it very, very effective? Hey, what's up guys, it's Josh here. We're gonna do a little review today on this laxogenin. I think that's how you pronounce it. I'm not sure. Now I actually had seen this around. I'd heard this name for a while, but I really didn't know what it was. I thought it was just some random supplement out there. It turns out this is technically an insect steroid and it's something you could find all natural in plants. Very, very similar to Turkestero. Now I just tried Turkestero for the first time. Very, very recently, I had never really heard about these plant steroids, these natural steroids and I really didn't think they were gonna work, especially because they said that it doesn't match up with our bodies, like insects and things like that. It's very similar, but it doesn't match up with ours, things like that. So I was actually blown away by Turkestero and I found it to be very, very potent, very, very strong. If you look at the chemical structure, it's pretty much very, very similar to testosterone, which is kind of the main thing they're going for here. This one is also very, very similar. Now I've taken this for about a week and a half, maybe two weeks and again, I'm coming off a little bit of that Turkestero and for me, I kind of hit a little bit of a plateau. I was doing some really heavy weights, but all my stuff was kind of like maxed out. I kind of have a little bit of an injury right here. So there's certain things that I can't push past a certain point. So once I jumped on the Turkestero, I really did notice it. I'm somebody who's actually very sensitive at looking little changes in my body. I mean, if I have alcohol, I can tell the change for even three or four days. It takes a long time for it to get away. So I noticed that Turkestero, it was very, very strong. It was very, very potent. I was kind of blown away that I'd been out of the natural steroids or whatever, kind of muscle building compounds people are using nowadays. I just kind of was sticking to the proteins and just the natural stuff, but I had no idea that there was this whole realm of really, really potent, natural plant steroids. So apparently there is laxogenin and that's like the original. This is supposed to be five alpha hydroxy laxogenin. So it's supposed to be a little bit more potent. I think that some steroids are like five methylated. So there's something really strong about using something at that five alpha point right there. This serving is very, very small. It's only like 50 milligrams. Now Turkestero, no, that was supposed to be an extract and those pills came in like a 500 milligram pills. So that would mean that if they were to do the same effects, this is 10 times more potent, like milligram for milligram. Usually that means it's a much stronger product, a much more potent product. Like if somebody were to take testosterone, I think like a medium dose for testosterone is like 400 or 500 milligrams for the week. That's about how much this is. It's like it's gonna be way more potent than Turkestero. So from my experience, did it build muscle? Was it very, very effective? Yes, very, very noticeable. I would notice it almost felt like it worked for like a half the day or most of one day. Again, this is one scoop and this is a very small scoop. I'm like 220 pounds. So maybe I needed a little bit more or maybe this has a short half life and you need to take it once in the morning, once in the end, I don't know. Every time I took this, I had extra strength. My visually, just my muscles looked better, more bigger and more stronger. The more that I would consistently take it, the more that I could see it. I would get in the gym and I would constantly be surprised. I would go put my normal weight on and then I would feel like, I kind of want to go a little heavier, kind of want to go a little heavier, kind of getting surprised about my strength increases. Now, it's not something like insane, but I mean really it was about 20 to 30% as far as strength gains, as far as everything in the gym. I was just really, really impressed by it and I think this is about $50. Do you get tons and tons of servings here? I mean for $50, this is great. It says 200, it might be a little bit more. You have to do the math, but this is a lot, a lot of servings here. For comparison, the Turkestrone per bottle would have 60 pills and you're supposed to take one a day. So basically 60 servings for one bottle and I think one bottle was about 40 bucks. This is 50 bucks, this has 200 servings. So in comparison to Turkestrone, I gotta say that I probably had a slight, slight better experience with the Turkestrone. But then again, like I don't know if it's because of the dosage. Again, I was taking 500 milligrams of Turkestrone and I'm only taking 50 milligrams of this. I don't know if I need to up the dose or maybe this is something that's a little bit shorter acting so I take it once in the morning and once at the end. The only reason I said that I feel like this is short acting is because I would take it, I would look better and then I felt like when I'd wake up the next day or get into the next day and I wouldn't have it, you could see a little bit of the depletion. Like I felt like just a little bit less pump like when I would look at myself. Not really noticing the strength of it and going off the look. Turkestrone, it seemed like I didn't really have that issue. Like I could take the pill anytime in the day and it always had a little bit of pump. And I don't really, couldn't really put my finger on why I would slowly prefer Turkestrone. Maybe if I were to try back to back, maybe I would end up liking this one. And this is definitely one that I will use 100% and I'm not just gonna only use the Turkestrone. I'm totally gonna use this stuff and it's kind of nice having a mix. Anyways guys, I'm really blown away by these natural plant steroids. I do wanna say be careful though because this is a plant steroid. You look at the chemical structure, it's very, very similar to testosterone. So if it does build muscle, if it does do all these things, it's pretty much going to act a little bit like a steroid in your body. And so you might have a little bit of testosterone depletion. That's what happens when you normally take testosterone. I mean, it just makes sense. Like if it looks like testosterone and it performs like testosterone, why wouldn't it deplete your natural one? I don't know. So I just be very careful with that. I haven't seen too much of it, but I've just used steroids in the past and pro hormones in the past. And you always need a PCT. If the more it works, the more you need a PCT. So just be careful with this stuff. I think they say you don't need one, but I would just have something around. I wouldn't expect to just come off this stuff and keep all your gains. I mean, you probably keep most of them. Probably not gonna be harsh on your body, but it just, I think it performs like a steroid. So anyways guys, five alpha hydroxy. Lots of servings. I'm really liking it. What's your favorite plant steroid? Have you tried the original laxogenin? Have you tried this? Have you tried Turkesterone? Have you tried Ectosterone? I'd be very interested to see.
