Androdiol

Androdiol™ is a registered trademark of Patrick Arnold's company, LPJ Research, Inc. Osmo Therapy uses only the highest quality 4-androstene-3,17diol manufactured in the United States by LPJ Research.

In October 1996, OSMO introduced the first Androstene product to the bodybuilding world and immediately changed the marketplace forever. Now, with the introduction of Androdiol, they will do the same thing once again.

Androdiol (4-androstene-3beta,17beta-diol) is a naturally occurring androgen metabolite that is a direct precursor to testosterone.

There is a tremendous potential value of Androdiol as a bodybuilding supplement for two major reasons. First of all, it converts to testosterone via an entirely different enzyme (3-beta hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase) than androstenedione. Secondly, the conversion appears to be much more efficient than that of androstenedione, perhaps up to three times greater [Blaquier et al. (1967). Acta Endocrinologica 55:697].

Those taking Androdiol for a generally improved state of well-being or recuperation from exercise, can take 100-200 mg a day in divided doses. Doses for intensely-training athletes range from 200-400mg a day in divided doses. Because Androdiol and Androstene are converted along entirely different enzymatic pathways, those using both products together would achieve optimal results.
