**MASSIVE** · 12-11-2005, 12:49 AM

I want to give a very special thanks to Jkeith who is the board rep for Scivation/Primaforce and I feel greatful to have been selected to be his product tester. I also thank Derek, Marc and Chuck(Team Scivation) for creating a product that so far shows great potential.

This log will be 100% biased proof, no BS! If I don't like the effects of this product you'll know it and if I love it and it becomes a staple in my diet, you will definitely hear about it across the boards
My plan is to bring the best and worst, pros and cons on Scivation's Lipid FX. I will be unbiased, honest and informative with this product. I will keep a frequent and detailed status of any updates and conclusions with Scivation's Lipid FX. .

Note: As most of you know, I am in a bulking phase and on cycle at the moment, I was chosen to see the reactions of Lipid FX under my circumstances. I eat plenty throughout the day and Lipid FX supports appetite control, the effects will be interesting.

Scivation LipidFX - Makes Losing Fat Easy
By: Derek Charlebois, Chuck Rudolph and Marc Lobliner—Team Scivation

As anyone who has ever dieted for an extended period time can tell you, the hardest part about dieting is controlling your appetite. There are products on the market today that aim to decrease appetite, such as hoodia, but for most these simply do not work well enough. Losing weight is governed by calories in vs. calories out. If you eat more calories than you burn you are not going to lose weight.

In addition to controlling one’s appetite, bodybuilders and fitness enthusiast must worry about preserving muscle tissue and losing only fat. Nobody wants to work hard to gain muscle only to lose it when dieting to lose weight.

After extensive research, Scivation has created Lipid FX, a supplement that activates PPARalpha causing an increase in fat oxidation, along with decreasing appetite and improving insulin sensitivity. LipidFX is comprised of three fatty acids: Oleoylethanolamide, Stearoylethanolamide, TetradecylThioacetic Acid as well as EGCG. These ingredients have been shown to help:

Maximize Fat Burn*
Support Appetite Control*
Promote Optimal Cardiovascular Health*

LipidFX—The Future in Fat Loss Has Arrived!

Scivation LipidFX™ is a precise, scientifically advanced blend of Lipolytic Lipids™. Lipolytic Lipids™ are fatty acids that can increase metabolic rate, significantly support appetite control and immune health, help support healthy lipid profiles and insulin levels and promote optimal cardiovascular health. LipidFX™ can also help the body burn fat instead of muscle while in a calorie-deficient state. Here is why LipidFX is perhaps the biggest breakthrough in healthy fat loss to date!

Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptors (PPAR)

The Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptors (PPAR) receptor family is divided into three subgroups: alpha, delta/beta, and gamma. PPARalpha is highly expressed in muscle, the liver, kidneys, and heart and is involved in the regulation of lipid metabolism, specifically the transcription of the genes involved in the beta-oxidation (burning) of fatty acids and lipogenesis (storage of fatty acids).
Fat can be oxidized in the mitochondria and the peroxisomes of cells, the majority of this oxidation occurring in skeletal muscle cells and the liver. PPARalpha activation increases fat oxidation in mitochondria and peroxisomes by increasing the expression of enzymes involved in beta-oxidation of fatty acids [6]. In addition to this, PPARalpha activation increases the number of both peroxisomes and mitochondria. The combination of the increased number of peroxisomes and mitochondria plus the elevation in beta-oxidation of fatty acids increases the rate and capacity at which fat can be burned. The end result is more fat loss. Activation of PPARalpha would be very beneficial for any bodybuilder or fitness enthusiast looking to lose fat or watch their weight.

PhosphoLean™: Oleoylethanolamide (OEA) and EGCG

Oleoylethanolamide (OEA) is an endogenous lipid being investigated as a potential anti-obesity drug. OEA is synthesized in the intestines. Its synthesis is increased with food intake and decreased with fasting. OEA has been shown to have anorexic properties, meaning it decreases food intake. A study done on rats showed that OEA’s ability to decrease appetite did not change plasma levels of various intestinal hormones involved in satiety, such as ghrelin and CCK, showing OEA works independently of these hormones [1].
OEA is also an activator of the Peroxisome Proliferator-Activator Receptor Alpha (PPARalpha) [2]. Activation of PPARalpha by OEA will cause an increase in fat oxidation along with a decrease in fat storage, creating an ideal environment for fat loss. OEA’s ability to decrease appetite and regulate body weight is accomplished by the activation of PPARalpha [5]. Scivation uses Phospholean, a form of OEA that is protected from destruction in the stomach with enhanced bioavailability.

Green tea extract (EGCG) has been a popular supplement for a while, but more and more research is confirming not only its many health benefits, but its ability to promote fat loss. In addition to multiple animal studies showing green tea to lead to fat loss published just this year, a three month double-blind, placebo controlled study on thirty men was published in the January 2005 issue of the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition. Compared to the placebo group, those who ingested catechins (the beneficial compounds in green tea that extracts are standardized for) daily lost more weight and more fat. While the earlier research was more preliminary, this study confirms the ability of green tea to lead to fat loss in humans.

Recent research has also given us a better picture of how green tea leads to fat loss. The more well-known mechanisms are catechol-O-methyl-transferase (COMT) inhibition, decreased dietary fat absorption, and increased levels of some hormones that suppress the appetite. A study published last year suggested yet another mechanism: when given to rats, green tea decreased the activity of glucose transporter 4 (GLUT4) in fat tissue, while increasing GLUT4 activity in muscle tissue. What this means is that fuel was being shunted away from fat and towards muscle. Not only does green tea facilitate weight loss, it can also lead to the preferential loss of fat over muscle. This is a great asset, since maintaining muscle mass is one of the hardest things to do on a diet.

A new study has discovered the phytochemicals in green tea are better used by the body in supplemental form rather than from actual green tea. The main catechin responsible for the thermogenic effect of green tea extract is epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG). Studies show it can increase metabolism by about 4%. That equates to more than 100 extra calories burned per day for most males. EGCG inhibits the enzyme responsible for the degradation of NE. By preventing NE breakdown, its fat burning effect is stronger and lasts longer.

Stearoylethanolamide (SEA)

Stearoylethanolamide (SEA) has been shown to decrease food intake independent of PPAR and without changing hematochemical parameters such as glucose and triglyceride levels or leptin (a hormone involved with satiety) expression [3]. The appetite decreasing effect of SEA was associated with a reduction in liver stearoyl-CoA desaturase-1 (SCD-1) mRNA expression. SCD-1 is the rate-limiting enzyme in the biosynthesis of monounsaturated fats and its reduction is believed to lead to increased fatty acid oxidation and decreased lipogenesis in skeletal muscle and the liver [4].

TetradecylThioacetic Acid (TTA)

TetradecylThioacetic Acid (TTA) is another PPARalpha activator [7]. TTA works in conjunction with OEA in increasing the oxidation of fatty acids and decreasing the storage of fatty acids. TTA has been shown to increase insulin sensitivity by increasing hepatic fat oxidation and ketogenesis while draining fatty acids from the blood and extrahepatic tissues. Increased insulin sensitivity means less insulin needs to be secreted to accomplish a given task. This is beneficial while dieting because insulin is anti-lipolytic.

Summary
• OEA and SEA decrease appetite
o Consuming less calories leads to fat loss
• OEA and TTA activate PPARalpha
o Activation of PPARalpha increase the rate and capacity of fat oxidation
• The combination of a decreased caloric intake and elevated fatty acid oxidation ensures fat loss success

Should be interesting to see how it affects your bulk bro. I wonder if it will take away from your gains.

Well considering all fat burners are catabolic and this one has additional appetite suppression I'll be curious to see if the SD can overide the negative sides.

pammiejoe6 · 12-11-2005, 04:07 AM

To be totally honest i dont understand why you would take this to bulk...enlighten me dahlin!

**antihero** · 12-11-2005, 04:34 AM

i beleive his purpose is to control his appetite, such as his cravings for junk, and to burn fat and stay very lean throughout the bulk.....i feel its a great idea, because the leaner you stay thorughout a bulk, the longer you can continue to bulk before reaching the point you feel you need to lose the excess fat.

**antihero** · 12-11-2005, 04:35 AM

ILL BE KEEPING AN EYE ON THIS....im interested to see how this reacts with a bulk, maybe i should have tested it too.....

Precisely....Great way to explain it. Yep, my goal is to watch what I eat and eat only when I have to. Thanks for your support on this log and hope to see you around. :fingersxd

M8-2 scoops ON's whey 20oz skim milk

TRAINING:

Rest
(chest very sore from every angle)

ALARMING SIDE EFFECTS:

None
Appetite a bit supressed

NOTES:
I took my first dose upon waking up along with my breakfast, my fish oils and Superdrol. No initial reaction or an alarming side effect. One hour later I realized that I wasn't thinking about food as I usually do. For the first time I had to check the clock and say, "time to eat". Coincidence? I took my second dose as planned and again had to be reminded to eat, my mom was suprised at my
absence in the kitchen

I am quite intrigued about these effects. Since my appetite wasn't as aggressive, I wasn't stuffing my face all the time. Another factor that I noticed was the speed in which I ate my food, as if I just didn't feel like eating

I'm not sure if Lipid FX is this potent to give me these effects on day one, but if it keeps this up and its effects do not diminish, it might very well be an excellent product.

**Note that I will be taking Sesamin once a day, I only have enough for the 30 days. And I have read that, while bulking, 1000-1500mg of Sesamin will suffice my needs.

TTA has been shown to increase insulin sensitivity by increasing hepatic fat oxidation and ketogenesis while draining fatty acids from the blood and extrahepatic tissues. Increased insulin sensitivity means less insulin needs to be secreted to accomplish a given task. This is beneficial while dieting because insulin is anti-lipolytic. Summary • OEA and SEA decrease appetite o Consuming less calories leads to fat loss • OEA and TTA activate PPARalpha o Activation of PPARalpha increase the rate and capacity of fat oxidation • The combination of a decreased caloric intake and elevated fatty acid oxidation ensures fat loss success References: 1.

MASSIVE AX Rep Join Date: Nov 2005 Location: TOKYO Posts: 1,217 Recipes: 0 Rep Power: 15	Day 1 DATE: Sunday December 11, 2005 DOSAGE: LIPID FX--4 Vegetarian Capsules 9am 2 caps 3pm 2 caps FOOD CONSUMPTION: M1-Quaker's Apple Cin. Oatmeal-2 packets w/ milk M2-2 scoops ON's whey, 12oz water, Crunchy PB sandwich M3-2 Scoops ON's Whey protein in water, Small bananna Sesamin M4-Fish Filet w/ tomatoe and avocado slices, water M5-2 scoop Substance WPI / XTEND watermelon in water M6-Peanut Butter Sandwish, 2 toasted slices w/ skim milk M7-Fruit Cocktail-Bananna,apples,grapes,watermelon M8-2 scoops ON's whey 20oz skim milk TRAINING: Rest (chest very sore from every angle) ALARMING SIDE EFFECTS: None Appetite a bit supressed NOTES: I took my first dose upon waking up along with my breakfast, my fish oils and Superdrol. No initial reaction or an alarming side effect. One hour later I realized that I wasn't thinking about food as I usually do. For the first time I had to check the clock and say, "time to eat". Coincidence? I took my second dose as planned and again had to be reminded to eat, my mom was suprised at my absence in the kitchen I am quite intrigued about these effects. Since my appetite wasn't as aggressive, I wasn't stuffing my face all the time. Another factor that I noticed was the speed in which I ate my food, as if I just didn't feel like eating I'm not sure if Lipid FX is this potent to give me these effects on day one, but if it keeps this up and its effects do not diminish, it might very well be an excellent product. Note that I will be taking Sesamin once a day, I only have enough for the 30 days. And I have read that, while bulking, 1000-1500mg of Sesamin will suffice my needs. __________________ Anabolic Xtreme Rep www.AnabolicXtreme.com www.StimulantX.com C-Los21@AnabolicX.com Owner@BBB VIP@WWBB VIP@AP VIP@VIP VET@SSB VET@ABB HYPERDROL™.....Our Newest Anabolic STIMULANT-X™.....Defining "Stimulation" ANABOLIC XTREME.....Real Results!**
