Green Bulge 2.0

[storm shadow]

So when is the "new" green bulge with the complete ingredient profile (no propriety blend) and no glycocyamine coming out? Will it have any added goodies?

just as you saw it. no glyco and the creatine levels are divulged. we already have it produced, just waiting to finish off the current batch before we start distributing the new one.

Cool. I'll probably use Green Bulge after my Green Mag runs out.

Will this released blend be the same doses as GB 1.0?

yup, the only thing that changed was the glyco was taken out and its weight was replaced with additional betaine.

whats betaine?

whats betaine?

Betaine (trimethylglycine) functions very closely with choline, folic acid, vitamin B12, and a form of the amino acid methionine known as S-adenosylmethionine (SAMe).1 2 All of these compounds function as “methyl donors.” They carry and donate methyl molecules to facilitate necessary chemical processes. The donation of methyl groups by betaine is very important to proper liver function, cellular replication, and detoxification reactions. Betaine also plays a role in the manufacture of carnitine and serves to protect the kidneys from damage.3 Betaine is closely related to choline. The difference is that choline (tetramethylglycine) has four methyl groups attached to it. When choline donates one of these groups to another molecule, it becomes betaine (trimethylglycine). If betaine donates one of its methyl groups, then it becomes dimethylglycine.

Betaine has been reported to play a role in reducing blood levels of homocysteine, a toxic breakdown product of amino-acid metabolism that is believed to promote atherosclerosis and osteoporosis. While the main nutrients involved in controlling homocysteine levels are folic acid, vitamin B6, and vitamin B12, betaine has been reported to be helpful in some people whose elevated homocysteine levels did not improve with these other nutrients. Betaine has also been shown to be helpful in certain rare genetic disorders involving cysteine metabolism.4 5 6 7 8 However, in normal situations or with supplementation of the other methyl donors, betaine is not likely to produce any lowering effect on homocysteine levels.9 10 Its primary use as a nutritional supplement is in supporting proper liver function.

Betaine is often referred to as a "lipotropic factor" because of its ability to help the liver process fats (lipids). In animal studies, betaine supplementation has been shown to protect against chemical damage to the liver.11 12 13 14 The first stage of liver damage that results from drinking alcohol is the accumulation of fat in the liver (alcohol-induced fatty liver disease). Betaine, because of its lipotropic effects, has been shown to produce significant improvements in this condition in several human clinical studies.15 16 Betaine has been studied in clinical trials conducted in Germany, Italy, and France in the treatment of alcohol-related liver disease.17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 Some success was noted in these studies, but the popularity of betaine for alcohol-related liver disease has been supplanted by SAMe and milk thistle extract. However, it has recently been suggested that betaine may be a more cost-effective method as a first-step therapy for alcohol-induced fatty liver disease.25

Betaine is also showing promise as a toothpaste ingredient, as it has been shown to produce significant relief of dry mouth.26

whats betaine?

In a performance enhancing supplement context, Betaine Anhydrous is a key / potent osmolyte, meaning that it enhances intracellular hydration.

Is there gonna be a test done with current GB users before its out for the public?

No idea what you mean... this is a very minor change being made.

Can you rephrase ?
