Recipes: 0 Rep Power: 5 | Red Acid™: Fat Incineration Matrix (180 Capsules) Red Acid™ is the most advanced fat incineration matrix ever to reach the market. It combines a synergistic blend of naturally occurring fatty acids and fatty acid analogues that serve as endogenous agonists of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-alpha (PPAR-alpha) and help to modulate ghrelin levels, producing a hunger satisfaction that effectively lowers your food intake. The fatty acid blend also helps stimulate glycerol and fatty acid release from adipocytes throughout the body. Key Attributes: Body Fat Reduction via Lipolysis Increased Energy Help Activate PPAR- alpha Potent and effective Decreased Appetite Greater Focus Enhanced Blood Flow Insulin Regulation Ephedra Free Yohimbe Free Helps potentiate other stimulants Designed to stack VERY well with Blue Rhino Designed to stack VERY well with Sesamin Designed to stack VERY well with Synephrine Designed to stack VERY well with Yohimbine Designed to stack VERY well with Ephedrine Maximize fat loss results without nausea Red Acid™ Write-Up: Most people have trouble losing their fat stores because they cannot control their food intake while on a cutting or maintenance phase. Even with proper diet and cardio, many individuals will eventually experience problems losing fat at an "optimal" rate. Now we have the answer: Red Acid™. Red Acid™ is the most advanced fat incineration matrix ever to reach the market. Unlike other fat loss products, Red Acid™ helps you to achieve fat loss via several different pathways. It combines a synergistic blend of naturally occurring fatty acids and fatty acid analogues that serve as endogenous agonists of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-alpha (PPAR-alpha) and help to modulate ghrelin levels, producing a hunger satisfaction that effectively lowers your food intake. The fatty acid blend also helps stimulate glycerol and fatty acid release from adipocytes throughout the body. Herbal appetite suppressants that work via the CNS rather than the digestive tract, like our fatty acid blend does, were included to address the same appetite problem, but via a different pathway, the brain. Natural energizers and thermogenics have also been added to increase activity in the gym, which leads to calorie use. Enhanced focus is also attained by the addition of some of the most thoroughly researched nootropics. The REDuction Complex™ (Fatty Acids and PPAR-alpha): Red Acid™ contains a fatty acid matrix that includes Oleoylethanolamide (OEA) and Tetradecylthioacetic Acid. OEA is a fatty acid that is anaturally occurring amide of ethanolamine and oleic acid. It starts working once it reaches the duodenum (the upper 1/3 of the small intestine) and is normally synthesized there by your body. It serves as an endogenous agonist of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-alpha (PPAR-alpha) and regulates lipid metabolism. OEA also activates vagal sensory afferent neurons and excites nodose ganglion neurons, which leads to decreased appetite and satiety. This naturally occurring fatty acid therefore inhibits food cravings and helps release fat from its stores in the body. Tetradecylthioacetic acid is a fatty acid that reduces total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, triglycerides and LDL/HDL cholesterol when used in combination with a good diet and also exhibits anti-inflammatory effects. Tetradecylthioacetic acid, like OEA, is an agonist of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-alpha (PPAR-alpha). Tetradecylthioacetic acid has been shown to increase catabolism of fatty acids and exhibit antiadiposity effects. Tetradecylthioacetic acid will help to effectively remove fat from its body stores and without forcing your body to effectively use it for energy. This allows you to “burn” fat at a much higher level than by simply exercising. The Transport Mechanism: A few hundred milligrams of flaxseed oil powder has also been added to aid in the transport of these two fatty acids into the duodenum and other necessary areas, so that they can be utilized completely. The Red Sweat Complex™ (Thermogenics, Nootropics, and Appetite Suppression via CNS): We have combined the most effective and potent thermonutrients to increase the utilization of energy in your body. The most potent extracts of energizing ingredients were included to make your trip to the gym one you would not forget. If you do not work out with intensity you cannot realize your true potential for fat loss and lean body mass accumulation. Intensity in the gym cannot be accomplished without focus either; you need the mental acuity that only our top of the line nootropics can provide in order to excel at your fat loss goals. The Red Slob Complex™ (Herbal Appetite Suppression, Thyroid Support, and Digestion Aids): Lastly, we added a proprietary blend of potent herbal appetite suppressants, digestion aids, thyroid support and stomach soothing compounds that work in synergy to target one of the hardest parts of fat loss: eating right. This blend effectively targets the central nervous system (CNS) to control your desire for food (without nausea or discomfort) and when combined with the anorexic effects of OEA you are in for a powerful combination. If you want to decrease your appetite, get rid of unwanted body fat, ramp up your endurance and enhance your focus in the gym, then Red Acid™ is the right choice for you. Red Acid™ makes an excellent stack when used in conjunction with Blue Rhino™. Together they will help you lose body fat and maintain your testosterone levels during a cutting (fat loss) phase.

Recipes: 0 Rep Power: 5 | Day 1: November 8 (yesterday) Weight: 294.6 Dose and time:2 pills 6:00am, 2 pills Noon Food and water consumption: 46/34/20 pro/cho/fat 4122 cal. Lifting: n/a Cardio: Practice, 25 periods 4:30 each Effects: --pros: NO appetite, have to stuff the food down. Thinking about lowering the total cals to 3800...not really sure. Nice energy boost, a little bit jittery, but I have no previous stimulant usage. No cramping, mild energy...I'll be able to tell more about the weight loss capabilities as the log goes on. --cons: Like I said, a little bit jittery, that's all. Nothing much else to report. |

Recipes: 0 Rep Power: 5 | The first dose was 4 pills 2x a day, not 2 pills. I copied it from the other site and forgot to fix the mistake. Day 2: November 9 Weight: 294.1 (294.6) -.5lbs Dose and time:4 pills 5:22am, 4 pills Noon Food and water consumption: 3854 cal. 254grams protein, 1+ gallon water (always outside of what I consume during practice) Lifting: Legs (ain't posting routine, it's the schools and we do a lot of stuff and I don't write it down for personal use. I will keep track of PR's though) Cardio: Practice, 24 periods 4:30 each Effects: NO appetite, have to stuff the food down yet again. This is a very nice appetite suppressant. As far as energy and focus/drive, it's slightly above normal...but I'm operating on less than 4 hours of sleep each of the last two nights and usually I would nap throughout the day in this case. I haven't had a single nap, and I actually have above-average energy. Tommorrow I'll be able to tell it's energizing effects even better as I plan on getting a good 7-9 hours of sleep tonight. A slight jittery feeling, but not bad at all. Half a pound of weight is obviously just water from the new stim. |

Recipes: 0 Rep Power: 5 | Alright, I'm still getting used to this site...so I guess I can't edit posts for a very long time here. Oh well, just discount the post above. Day 3: November 10 Weight: 293.9 (294.6) -.7lbs Dose and time:4 pills 6:13am, 4 pills 12:03pm Food and water consumption: 289grams protein, 3892 cals, 1+ gallons water Lifting: n/a Cardio: practice, no pads, 25 periods 4:30 each. 20 play fully-padded scrimmage Effects: After getting a solid 7 hours last night, the first dose showed how good it was at focus/energy. I felt very energetic and EXTREMELY focused...even through English class, which is usually a huge snooze-fest. Getting ready to take my second dose soon, so will update then. After my second dose, I felt a nice little kick after about 30-45minutes. I can tell right now this is a nice little neurostimulator...at least for someone who hasn't taken very many. I was able to make it through practice fine, no cramping or anything as of yet. Sides: Wierd side this morning when I took my first dose on an empty stomach. When I took the pills, I got this weird "warm pressure" sensation in my stomach and in the back of my throat. It's hard to explain, the feeling is kinda like when you burp up a little stomach acid...except without the burning...it's just kinda warm. Didn't get it with the second dose at all. |

Recipes: 0 Rep Power: 5 | Day 4: November 11 Weight: 292.3 (294.6) -2.3lbs Dose and time:4 pills 5:30am, 4 pills Noon Food and water consumption: ~250grams protein, ~3600 cals, 1.5 gallons water Lifting: Fullbody Cardio: n/a Effects: Today was kinda weird. I got between 7-8 hours of sleep last night, and I felt tired all day even after my Red Acid doses. The other days it seemed to pick me up quite a bit, but not today. I didn't have as many carbs today as usual, and that may have played a role. Also, I don't know how appetite suppresants usually work, but with Red Acid I still get hungry like normal, it's just when I start eating about 2 bites in I don't feel like eating anymore. Big weight drop is expected in the first week, even though I "feel" leaner, LOL. Gotta love placebo, huh folks? Sides: The same "warm" feeling in my stomach and chest is felt, not like my bodytemp has risen, more like how I said yesterday, if you burped up some stomach acid. I've never had heartburn before, but I could imagine this being heartburn...not really sure to tell the truth. Also, last night I woke up with a wierd pain in my chest, not exactly where my heart is, more like right below it in my ribs. It was a very acute, yet dull pain. Don't know/think it's RA related, just thought I'd report it. |

Recipes: 0 Rep Power: 5 | Thanks john and peaked! Day 5: November 12 Weight: 292.8 (294.6) -1.8lbs Dose and time:4 pills 8am, 4 pills 1pm Food and water consumption: ~270grams protein, ~4100 cals, 2+ gallons water Lifting: n/a Cardio: ~1 hour of sprint/agility work Effects: Didn't really "feel" anything...a bit more energy than normal when doing my sprint work. It's hard to say much about a fat-loss product on Day 5. I feel RA does give a nice boost in general, just not a huge "jolt" of energy if you will. Also, my appetite is really wierd...I feel like eating just like normal, it's just when I start after about 2 bites I don't want anything anymore. I'm going to change to a 2-2-2-2 dosing schedule tommorrow. Sides: I felt the slight warmth in my throat/chest...nothing serious or even annoying. VERY slight nausea after the first dose, yet again nothing that is much of a problem. No real sides as of yet. |

Recipes: 0 Rep Power: 5 | Day 6: November 13 Weight: No access to scale on Sunday Dose and time:4 pills 8am, 2 pills 11am, 2 pills 2pm Food and water consumption: ~300grams protein, ~3600 cals, 1+ gallons water Lifting: n/a Cardio: ~1 hour of sprint/agility work Effects: I woke up to do the 2-2-2-2 dosing like I wanted to, but the 4-2-2 worked out pretty well. I felt focused, energetic and just good all day. Today was basically running in the morning, and then web surfing and homework all day...and I was focused through it all. The running went by relatively easily. I had a MUCH stronger feeling of well-being today than other days...hopefully I found my sweetspot with this product. The appetite is still quite strange...I get hungry but when I start eating I can't ever eat as much as I think. I'm happy so far...tommorrow will be a caliper/measurments day, so that should add a little bit of excitement. :bigthumbu Sides: None, I just feel a warming sensation whenever I take my first dose and not again. Not really a side, more of an observation. |

Recipes: 0 Rep Power: 5 | Sorry, but I haven't been able to get to a computer at all this week...a lot of crap going on. Here is a nice little update though... Day 11: November 18 Weight: 289.6 (294.6) -5lbs Dose and time:4 pills 5:30am, 2 pills 9am, 2 pills 12:20pm Food and water consumption: (plan on consuming) ~300grams protein, ~3800 cals, 1+ gallons water Lifting: fullbody Cardio: n/a Effects: I like the 4-2-2 dosing, I have felt good all day and have had no side effects. I'm sleeping fine and actually quite well/a lot, with the crash that comes around 8pm. I look a lot leaner and my roommate and my workout partner have both commented. My arms are quite vascular now and I can see some veins in my forearms that I've never seen before. I'm very happy up to this point and I'm going to stick to the 4-2-2 dosing and not go any higher. Sides: None |
