Check out this interesting study below:
Iv'e extracted this section for my point...
"The activation of NF-kappaB has been observed also in muscles subjected to acute and intense exercise, implying that inflammatory processes may take place under the conditions of intense exercise. This may cause muscle damage and protein breakdown. Therefore, using NF-kappaB pathway inhibitors may prove beneficial in attenuating NF-kappaB-associated muscle damage in both disuse atrophy and strenuous exercise."
So, NFkappB inhibition... via its regulation of the inflamatory process after intense exercise, if inhibited... can reduce muscle damage... therefore, reducing muscle catabolism... and providing an overall beneficial enviornment for muscle anabolism and repair to occur. So, unlike anabolics that just say to the muscle cell "grow" ... Nf-KappaB Inhibitors work by reducing intense exersice induced inflamatory processes and damages caused by this process in the muscle, which also enables it to repair more efficinetly. This enhanced ability to repair itself from injury has been presented in the studies from my prior post (top of this entry)..
myogenic is an inappropriate word for what we are talking about here. its pretty much the same thing as anabolism. curcumin and other NF kappa beta inhibitors are not myogenic
BTW, did you know that cortisol is a potent inhibitor of NF-kappa beta activity?
also, remember that muscle damage is the stimulus for compensatory hypertrophy so to say that reducing it leads to greater anabolism is misguided. There has to be a balance. If you reduce the inflammatory response too much you may reduce the rebound increase in protein synthesis and satellite cell recruitment
I just showed about 20 studies showing it is clearly has myogenic properties...
Also... I'm glad you picked cortisol to compare to Curcumin.... Here is why...
You just can't compare Cortisol to Curcumin... Completely different class of comounds ... Cortisol is a corticosteroid and curcumin is a polyphenol...
CORTISOL: Glucocorticoid excess is characterized by increased adiposity, skeletal myopathy, it inhibits the immune sytem, decreases reproductive funtion, increases cardiovascular disease, cholesterol and insulin resistance... Plus, it is an antagonist to anablism, reduces amino acid uptake and protein synthesis... as you may know, although we know much of the interaction, the "precise" molecular mechanisms for all of these effects are unknown. however, when talking about muscle growth... Cortisol is a purely catabolic hormone...
Curcumin has been shown to do eactly the oppostie of ALL of these just listed Negative effects... I would say it is the ANTI CORTISOL... it reduces adiposity, enhances the immune system, inhibits estrogen activity (SERM), inhibits cardiovascular dysfunction, lowers cholesterol, decreases insulin resistance, plus it enhances myogenesis and is anti-catabolic... if you look at all the studies I showed...when comparing Curcumin to Cortisol... Curcumin actually has the exact opposite effects in the body... the only similarity of cortisol and Curcumin is the inhibiton of inflamation... (Which also happens to be one of the only desireable effect of corticosteroid use)
Muscle cell growth via sarcoplasmic and myofibrillar hypertrophy occurs during training stress. Muscle cells experience microtrauma to the myofibrils, which then repairs so that muscles can handle the same load the next time around. That of course is how a muscle grows. Inhibiting excess inflamation in the trained muscles that are experiencing microtraumas is how Curcumin, via NF-kappaB inhibition, exerts its myogenic/anti-catabolic effects. Not by inhibiting the damage caused by training...

No worries... We'll definitely be considering adding the words Resveratrol and Curcumin next to their chemical nomenclatures...
FYI... other than those... the rest of the labels are pretty transparent... Even our proprietary blends are no more than a few ingredients each... we break them down into sub groups on the label... still gives us a little protection on our formulas from competitors... but is MUCH easier for a consumer to understand what dosages they are getting...Last edited by MWarfare; 02-17-2010 at 07:37 PM.

There has obviously been ample research done on Muscle Warfare products and technologies... When you get a chance to launch a product and express what you are doing, you want to share all of the details. I know that the readers, who look at all the science, know that the studies are entirely relevant... Maybe that isn't your style of info presentation on this board... But this is where we are coming from. We back up what we say.
Of course you and I both know, and some of the viewers of this thread, that we both have a vested interest. Mine, to gain credibility on this board for our science and help build my new brand. You've already got a lot of credibility here. So, yours is to challenge me to build yours. No worries... I'm cool with it all or I wouldnt be here pressing forward. We're both creating PR for this new technology, which can only help us both...
So, let the debate continue....

I never said whether such a thing exists or not duh,I am not a patent attorney and certainly my health is good(thank the Lord) and none of my patents is a public service,terrorism counter, energy or environment saviour(selfish bastard that I am ).
I still am willing to bet good money they will not get their patent in less than a year if they get it all

Without evaluating the actual scientific relevance of your posts, I can whoelheartedly say that I absolutely appreciate your willingness to face scientific debate and not to flee when being challenged. This is what distinguishes you from a few certain company reps* who use to respond to a scientific challenge with personal insults, accusations and their obligatory sentence: "your arguments are all wrong because you are a competitor and jealous hater".
I appreciate that you don't go to these low levels and wish that many others would behave like you.

Here is an interesting study on the topic growth hormone release and N-Methyl-D-Aspartate... this specific study uses mammilian animal models to show the results of Growth Hormone increase immediately after administration of only 5mg of N-Methyl-D-Aspartate.... Get this..... Instant 1,095% Increase!
Due to the previous studies I've shown that show synergistic action in intact organ systems between the two, I'd like to see this study run with a combo of N-Methyl-D-Aspartate and D-Aspartic Acid to check for even more synergism on GH release...Due to all the data I have seen.... I'm pretty certain we would see a potential nice pop....
J Anim Sci. 1996 Mar;74(3):597-602.
N-methyl-D,L-aspartate-induced growth hormone secretion in barrows: possible mechanisms of action.
Estienne MJ, Harter-Dennis JM, Barb CR, Hartsock TG, Campbell RM, Armstrong JD.
Department of Agriculture, University of Maryland Eastern Shore, Princess Anne 21853, USA.
Four experiments were conducted to determine mechanisms by which n-methyl-d,l-aspartate (NMA) increases serum concentrations of growth hormone (GH). Blood samples were collected from barrows every 15 min for 2 h (Exp. 1, 2, and 3) or 3 h (Exp. 4) immediately before and immediately after i.v. treatments. In Exp. 1, barrows (n = 4/treatment) received either .9% saline or 1.25, 2.5, or 5 mg of NMA/kg of BW. The change in circulating GH concentrations was greater (P < .05) for barrows receiving 2.5 mg (by 883%) or 5.0 mg of NMA/kg of BW (by 1,095%) than for those injected with saline. In Exp. 2, barrows (n = 4/treatment) received NMA (2.5 mg/kg of BW) or injections of 1.25 mg of the pure d or pure 1 isomers of NMA/kg of BW. Growth hormone concentrations increased by 177% (P < .025) after NMA treatment and by 245% (P < .01) after injection of the pure d isomer of NMA. The pure 1 isomer of NMA had no effect (P > .1) on GH concentrations. In Exp. 3, barrows received NMA (2.5 mg/kg of BW) 10 min after i.m. injection of saline (n = 7) or ******** hydrochloride ( n = 8; 19.9 mg/kg of BW), an n-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) receptor antagonist. The NMA increased (P < .01) GH concentrations by 289% in saline-pretreated barrows but had no effect (P > .1) on barrows pretreated with ******** hydrochloride. In Exp. 4, barrows (n = 4/treatment) received NMA 3 h after i.v. pretreatment with antisera to GH-releasing factor (GRF; 154 mL) or no pretreatment. Serum GH concentrations increased by 166% (P < .05) after injection of NMA in barrows receiving no pretreatment. The NMA had no effect (P > .1) on GH concentrations in barrows receiving antisera to GRF. Our results support the concept that NMDA stimulates GRF, and hence GH secretion, by activating an NMDA receptor.Last edited by MWarfare; 02-18-2010 at 08:16 AM.

Actually the safety data on aspartame is preetty good. There are a lot of studies that they used to validate this on pubmed....
got these nice tidbits off of WIKI....
((( Aspartame is the methyl ester of the dipeptide of the natural amino acids L-aspartic acid and L-phenylalanine. In 1999, FDA officials described the safety of aspartame as "clear cut" and stated that the product is "one of the most thoroughly tested and studied food additives the agency has ever approved." )))
however, on the hormone increasing side... studies show very low to zero hormone increasing effects from pure L-Aspartate consumption... Sinse the L-Form of Aspartate is the form that Aspartame contains, you probably wouldnt see much of an effect.
However, this isnt to say it might not be possible for some low level boost... but you would have to ingest a lof of aspartame... and the hormone boost wouldnt be significant for any desired effect.
Reason why it could have "some" effect, although not significant, is this... L-Aspartate converts into D-aspartate via L-Aspartate Racemase reaction... It then converts into N-Methy-D-Aspartic Acid from there...
So we know that D-Asp and N-Methyl-D-Aspartate stimulate hormone production on the NMDA receptor... So depending n enzyme avaialbility and dosing.. you could theoretically get an effect from that...
L-Asp is 100x's weaker than D-Asp in triggering hormone increases (test, hgh)
D-asp is 100X's weaker than N-Methyl-D-Aspartate for triggering hormone increases (test,hgh)
Hope this helps...

The safety data is pretty good on D-Asp and low dose N-Methyl-D-Aspartate... I have yet to see any studies indicating toxicity in oral doses MUCH higher than those required to induce hormonal increases in animal or human models and a lot of information to show otherwise.
We of course went to great lengths of research and testing to create our product to use the lowest dose necessary to induce the positive hormonal response...
Even using the FDA's stance on Aspartame for insance, which a related compound... the data has come back conclusively safe...
I think some confusion comes about as n-Methyl-D-Aspartate is an excitatory amino acid used in some experiments on diassected Rats brains and such... Since it is new sicence, WIKI has it listed in that regard to some extent... But that is not correlating data since just about anything tested that way is cell damaging...
