    Burly you are correct. That price is "dirt cheap" and everyone said it worked miraculously.

    If someone were to buy thousands of grams at a time I can see them getting a deal but even then to be honest if you were to buy raw product the average price for 10grams is $200 dollars...coming from China or Korea. Now someone over there with a connection could probably get a better deal or again someone buying thousands of pounds could as well..but at that rate..the raw product for a bottle of AndroHard would equate to $50 dollars...that doesn't include labor, packaging, etc...

    It simply doesn't make sense.

    This is why I am wondering if AndroHard's dosages were inaccurate. OR did PP spend tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars on raw product alone, and if so how the hell did they get it over??

    There are just so many questions to be answered.

    I personally believe that using a validated brand to compare to is the way to go.

    Someone like Scope or Oryan is perfect. If they take 300mgs of Epi Andro and it compares to say "750" mgs of the AndroHard then we simply know that AndroHard's dosages were off. If 300mgs acts mildly comparatively, we know that AndroHards dosages were correct.

    Either way I put my name and word on EPI ANDRO. I think everyone here believes and trusts this statement. And EVERYONE here on SS ADORES androhard.

    Again not a sales pitch, but we have a legit understanding to try to compare EPI ANDRO to ANDROHARD. We can look for cheaper alternatives...I think we should determine if EPI ANDRO hold a flame to ANDROHARD first and foremost.

    Also, someone like Sperwer overseas already with connections likely has a much less expensive option for Raws. We can always look to him to resolve this issue if Epi Andro cannot compare.

    My $2 cents.

    I looked on PHF..which is a solid forum...Found alot of reviews on Stanozane..people said it was good, but they all talked about AndroHard. Literally almost every thread it was mentioned in said, Stanozane was "ok' but AndroHard was the way to go...

    What the hell was in this AndroHard that made it so good!!

    And again, lets go back to questions.

    Why do companies like "ironflex" and this "stanoelite" company come out with 200mg versions...and well known respectable companies like IML and LG are dosing at 25 and 50mgs??

    Something just DOES NOT add up. We need to figure this out.

    I am going to msg D'maggio right now,the owner of IML and ask him why. You guys keep working on this from your end. We have to figure this out!!

    Does anyone here know the owner of PP?? Can someone just ask him?? Not sure he would be able to disclose what we want...But there is just too much differential here.

    Look at even Ultradrol versus Msten. Ultradrol was the original Methylsten. It sold for $40 dollars for 60 - 4mgs caps. New companies have released 10mg caps x60 for less then $40..so the price has reduced itself. Two different compounds..but how can one company have 200mg caps..and a better company has 25mgs.

    As confusing as this is, we may be making progress.

    When D'maggio responds i will post up.

    This shit is getting out of hand simple and plain.

    They are all the same thing.

    Stano Elite, Stanozane, and Stano-200 etc, are all clones of stanodrol by CEL.
    They are all epiandrosterone, without anything else in them.
    The average minimum dose is 600mg, but should be run at 800-1200mg IMO. Very poor bioavailability.

    Androhard was Epiandro with a delivery system and around the average dosing. As the versions proegressed the MG dosage went from 500mg, to 1200mg, the delivery system improved and eventually both Isomers(epiandro, androsterone) were used.

    EpiandroRX, is underdosed at 25mg per a serving of epiandrosterone but with a delivery system. How Mich that delivery system increases bioavailability is anyone's guess. LG tried this with their sublingual Epiandro and it didn't prove to well.

    The story goes on but its all the same. Epiandro=Epiandro anyway you look at it. Just depends how you want to take it. Ultimately Androhard should always prove best, as its high mg dosage+delivery system.

    Stanozane is dosed the same as androhard v1 from experience, so unless both iron flex and pp are liars, then the other companies you mentioned are just ripping people off.

    Androhard v3 was a combo and more potent at crushing estrogen IMO, dried you out more and was generally pretty different. It was also 1200 mg with a delivery system.

    Wesley the strength gains you reported on epi andro make me think it's spiked with a methyl anyway.

    Try it again with before cycle and late cycle bloods

    Thx Weekend. Would never accuse anyone of being a liar..just trying to get to the bottom of this so we can replicate AndroHard..that is all...Not trying to fight, argue or discredit ANYONE here. Like you guys I wanna find the next best AndroHard.

    So I spoke to D"maggio personally. He's the owner and CEO of Iron mag labs. Obviously well versed and experienced and a very smart man. IML has amazing products, and it did not happen by chance I think we can all agree to this.

    He knows about AndroHard..he told me that "AndroHard would be VERY EXPENSIVE" at one dose"..now IML sells THOUSANDS of bottles per year. So they have a leg to stand on. So how is it Stanozone and StanoElite can afford to use 200mgs per cap, but IML a million dollar company cannot?? This is what I want to know.

    D'maggio mentioned the delivery system and gave me this link:

    Essentially they are unable to replicate the AndroHard at the same cost....so the question is WHY?? Why would IML one of the most succesful PH companies ever to exist be unable to do such a thing??

    This is what we must figure out.

    I still think ORyan , SCOPES and anyone else running this experiment will figure out for us!!


    3b-hydroxy-5a-androstan-17-one
    Epiandrosterone, also identified as isoandrosterone, was first synthesized along with several
    stereoisomers in 1934 by Leopold Ruzicka, the Croation scientist also credited with the first
    successful synthesis of testosterone, in which it was prepared by the chemical degradation
    (oxidative removal of the side chain) of dihydrocholesterol. [1]



    Preparation of epiandrosterone from dihydrocholesterol. Helvetica Chimica Acta.
    1934;17(1):1395 [1]


    It wasn’t until later however that it was naturally identified when it was isolated and extracted
    from the urine of a woman with an adrenal tumor in 1938: [2]


    “It may be of interest to point out that although 3(a)-hydroxyetiocholane-17-one and
    isoandrosterone have been prepared in the laboratory (Ruzicka et at. (7)), they have not
    previously been isolated directly from any natural source. Since isoandrosterone has quite
    definite androgenic properties, its occurrence in the urine of a patient with an adrenal
    tumor..[2]“
    The trivialized names epiandrosterone and isoandrosterone originate from the fact it is both an
    isomer and epimer of androsterone. Epiandrosterone is considered to be a two-step precursor to the active male androgen
    4,5a-dihydrotestosterone, utilizing two metabolic enzymes in vivo to reach the target hormone;
    they are 3b-HSD and 17b-HSD.


    3b-HSD converts epiandrosterone into 5a-androstane-3,17-dione(androstanedione) while
    17b-HSD converts it into 5a-androstane-3b,17b-diol (androstanediol). From there 17b-HSD
    converts androstanedione to DHT and 3b-HSD converts androstanediol to DHT. Thus, there are
    two possible pathways to dihydrotestosterone as shown above.
    It is important to note that these equilibrium reactions are reversible (they go back and forth) in
    the body, so while epiandrosterone will convert to DHT, some DHT will also convert to
    epiandrosterone. It is therefore impossible to give a fixed conversion percentage. Dihydrotestosterone, the target hormone, exists as a naturally occurring potent androgen in the
    body, possessing anabolic activity anywhere from 1.08 – 2.2x and androgenic activity 1.2 –
    2.68x the activity of testosterone by injection according to the Hershberger assay. [3][4]

    In addition to its anabolic and androgenic activities, DHT has a number of positive physiological
    effects when administered to males, both clinically and anecdotally reported:
     DHT administration has been shown to improve durations of erections in
    adult (older) males. [5]

    -”Early morning erections improved transiently in the DHT group
    at 3 months of treatment (P < 0.003), and the ability to maintain
    erection improved in the DHT group compared with the placebo
    group (P < 0.04)..Transdermal administration of DHT improves
    sexual function and may be a useful alternative for androgen
    replacement." [5]

     It has been shown to significantly improve spatial memory in senior
    hypogonadal men. [6]

    -”Our results indicate that hypogonadal men demonstrate
    significant improvements in verbal memory in response to T
    supplementation with significantly increased serum T, DHT, and E
    2 levels, and older hypogonadal men demonstrate improved spatial
    memory in response to DHT treatment, with significantly increased
    serum DHT levels.” [6]

     DHT was found to be the primary influence in the frequency of orgasms in
    healthy young males. [7]

     Increased lean muscle and hardness in exercised males
     Enhanced vascularity
     Heightened aggression
     Improved libido
     Reduced lethargy/increased energy
    Epiandrosterone is 5a-reduced, like DHT, meaning it will not 5a-reduce in androgen-sensitive
    tissues of the body (because it is 5a-reduced already), therefore the use of a 5a-r inhibitor to
    reduce androgenic side-effects (like hair-loss or acne) is futile. Moreover, its inability to reduce
    might enable more selective interaction in tissues which express 5a-r heavily (like the skin and
    scalp) to reduce certain delta-4 steroids. It will also not aromatize.
    Epiandrosterone is not to be confused with androsterone, an isomer of practically identical
    structure. The difference lies in the position of the 3-hydroxyl functional group, where in
    androsterone it lies in the 3-alpha position, in epiandrosterone it is in the 3-beta position. Both
    isomers are expected to convert to DHT readily.
    Epiandrosterone(left) vs. Androsterone(right).

    Because of its status as a legal and naturally-occurring dietary supplement, epiandrosterone
    provides a viable alternative to synthetic designer steroids. Enjoy the cognitive and ergogenic
    properties of DHT with Iron Mag Labs Epistane Andro RX.

    Dosed at 50mg per cap 60 caps per bottle, IML Epi-Andro RX is certain to give users a
    significant boost in DHT levels ensuring an unequivocal edge during exercise and will make for
    a fantastic addition to any steroid cycle where side effects such as lethargy and decreased libido
    may pose an issue.

    How much is the cost to have Patrick Arnold test a bottle of Epi Andro RX and test another product that is dosed at the 200mg range? I'd love to see the comparison.

    Otherwise we can't really same one way or the other until someone uses Epi Andro RX and tells us. And then, we don't really know what is in what. Was Androhard spiked? Is Epi Andro rx spiked? Who knows. I just don't want to be taking a methyl when I think I'm taking a non-methyl.

    Wesleys experience with EpiandroRX was very surprising to say the least. It will be nice to see the comparisons that are being run.
