Hey man,
What is it about the Res in the sustain alphs that helps acne?
Does that mean Res has some type of inhibiter effect on DHT levels?
Sustain alpha was one of the first things I tried after crashing from a DHT inhibiter and to be honest made me feel good. The stuff was awesome.
But I'm wondering if I should be taking it now if it is a DHT inhibiter.
I also remember PP charging approx 75 per bottle if I rember correctly so this price is real good

Good info ! Will sit down n read later.. Pp was before me.. Kinda.. I was just out of the game during their reign :\
Was the recommendation to follow the 5 days on 2 off protocol with SA topical? Seems to me they moved away from that towards the end when the gel carrier came out and before it was discontinued.
