Shredded Introduction
Instant Ignition Of Water Loss For Shredded Abs And Body!
Shredded contains a sequence of compounds that are all designed to rid your body of excess water in 72 hours guaranteed. One of these compounds is called "urtica dioica" (stinging nettle root). Originally investigated to support prostate health, it contains what are called "lignans" that directly prevent testosterone from binding to SHBG (sex hormone binding globulin). And when this happens, more of your naturally occurring testosterone will be utilized for what it does best... build muscle and make you strong! Along with its testosterone enhancing properties "Urtica Dioica" has demonstrated to inhibit the aromatase enzyme in fat tissue and therefore liberating fat in a fast and efficacious manner.
The second compound in Shredded's unsurpassed formula is Uva-Ursi (Arbutin). Uva-Ursi is a very exciting compound because it can help bodybuilders in more ways than one. Shredded's high pharmaceutical extract of Uva-Ursi contains more than 30% Arbutin which not only surpasses everything that is currently available, but also accelerates the bodies ability to flush water whenever it is needed most, like right before a contest or photo-shot.
The third and forth compounds in Shredded are caffeine and a specially harvested Green Tea Extract (60% EGCG). Very recent research suggested that the combo of "caffeine and green tea (the one that contains at least 60% EGCG)" is enormously thermogenic, and many fat burners promoted to the general public contain this powerful one-two punch. The "mechanism of action" for caffeine is that it strongly liberates fat storage by stimulating adrenaline receptors, which cause small elevations in body temperature, which "kick in" the thermogenic process. And caffeine is a very, very potent diuretic as well. It stimulates the kidneys, causing frequent trips to the bathroom... with each successive trip revealing more and more of your six-pack.
The last and final compound found in Shredded is Evodiamine. Evodiamine works by increasing what is known as catecholamine production from the adrenal glands. This in turn, through a complex sequence of biological processes, increases what is called cyclic adenosine monophosphate, or cyclic AMP, cAMP. And cAMP is one bad metabolic blaster... causing the eventual activation of 300 different enzyme reactions in the body. And when this happens efficiently, every process in the body, including ATP production, protein synthesis, carbohydrate metabolism, and fat oxidation go into overdrive, and this is exactly what you want... accelerated repair and regeneration!
So imagine yourself 10 - 20 pounds lighter in just a few days... and imagine how much more ripped you're going to look. Don't compete another contest or have your picture taken without implementing Shredded into your program.

Frequently Asked Questions:
Q. What does Shredded exactly do?
Shredded is known as an aquaretic product - that is, a product meant for shredded water weight in an incredibly short time, only 72 hours. Shredded is meant primarily for competing bodybuilders, and figure competitors to be used leading up to their contest. Unlike many diuretics, Shredded is available without a prescription and is legal in almost all competing organizations*, where prescription diuretics are banned due to abuse. Simply put, Shredded helps reduce water bloat to give the absolute most cut appearance on stage, on camera, or when it really matters.
Q. Can you explain the ingredients some?
Basically, the first three you see listed are Magnesium Oxide (50% Magnesium), B6, and Potassium. When in water shedding stages like these, all three can be 'lost' through urinary output, so Shredded helps to replenish these levels.
Uva-Ursi is probably the most esoteric compound found in Shredded, however the role is actually fairly simple. Uva-Ursi acts as a diuretic, and flushes the body of water relatively quickly.
You find caffeine in almost every fat burner out there, however one big factor of caffeine is that it is a powerful diuretic, and also stimulates adrenaline receptors raising body temperature slightly. The diuretic effects kicks in largely through stimulation of the kidneys, which causes the body to expel more water in a given period of time.
Green Tea Extract acts as an antioxidant for the body, but when coupled with caffeine also acts as a thermogenic. The antioxidant property of Green Tea is an important consideration when there is heavy shift in the body composition.
Taraxasterols are found in dandelion root (Taraxacum Officinale), and is actually a neat compound. The general effect is that sodium chloride will increase excretion, thereby increasing water excretion, however the potassium levels in the body remain largely unaffected by this action.
Stinging Nettle Root Extract rounds out by providing blocking of the SHBG. SHBG is the Sex Hormone Binding Globulin, and a lignan found in stinging nettle root binds with it, increasing levels of free testosterone.
Q. Who is Shredded right for? Who is Shredded not right for?
This is an important point. Being an aquaretic, it is important to realize that Shredded will shed excess water severely - and water being vital to life, Shredded should only be used in situations necessitating aquaretics.
Shredded is perfect for:
* Bodybuilders
* Figure Competitors
* Model/Photo Shoots
* Posing Competitors
These people, and people like them, depend on having the extra punch in their performance on stage, on camera, or similar. When the difference between winning and losing can come down to just a bit of water weight, Shredded steps in to push the appearance further.
Shredded should be avoided for:
* Simply losing some water weight to 'look good' throughout the day.
* Going on holiday and need to cut up the look.
* To impress a group of friends
* Similar situations, where the appearance is not vital to performance.
These reasons, and more, are ones I have personally heard for wanting to use Shredded. Since Shredded loses water (dehydration), Shredded should only be used when necessary, when the results means performance. It is not healthy to repress water levels for extended periods of time, and when not necessary should not be practiced.
Q. Ok, Shredded may not be right for me.. what else can I do?
This is unique depending on the user, and where they are in their dieting and training stages. There is no one solution to this, but some ideas would be:
Increase the water intake. As strange as this sounds, drinking more water will overall cause a decrease in bloat. Don't go overboard with this, but keep water intake to 1-2 gallons per day.
Consider doing a cut 1-2 months before holiday. This again, depends if it is a good idea for you to be in a cutting phase, determined by current bodyfat, weight, and past few months dieting.
Just go on holiday and relax. Chances are, you're being to hard on yourself anyways.
Q. Why does a bottle only have 10 servings?
Simply because Shredded works within a period of 3 days. At 3 servings a day, that's only 9 servings. 3 servings per day, then 1 leading up to the competition/photo shoot/etc. is all that is needed to rid extra water weight. One bottle of Shredded is all that is needed.
Q. What precautions should I take when using Shredded?
As with any water weight shedding, it is also possible to drive down the levels of electrolytes. Keep water intake up when using Shredded to 'flush' the system. Directly after competition/photo shoot, have an electrolyte drink on-hand to down - quite literally as you're finished. As always, use safe & sensible supplementation routines.
Q. I'm an athlete. Would losing the extra water help me in my performance?
While it would mean less water to carry in your sport (such as sprinting, cycling, etc), water intake needs to remain high for any sport athlete. Shredded's diuretic effect will work against you, as you lose the water to keep hydrated, and electrolyte balance can disrupt - impairing performance. Because of this, Shredded would not be in your best interest.
Q. What does Shredded cost?
On Bodybuilding.com - The Future Of Bodybuilding! Huge Bodybuilding Site., Shredded (http://www.bodybuilding.com/store/san/shred.html) will cost $14.99 per bottle.
