Have you had fat loss with NOX2

I’ve been getting great slow but steady fat loss by doing a 3 hr fast before bed for the past 3-4 months now.

Just recently, I’ve stopped losing fat, and actually have gained a little back.

Everything I’m doing is about the same, except….I stopped taking my NOX2 for about the last 2-3 weeks!

Coincedence? I don’t think so.

Has anyone else noticed increased fat loss while taking the NOX2?

Sparkyx

No one has had increased fat loss with this?

It could very well be then that it is some sort of catalyst when combined with the 3 hour fast before bed….

HELLO….ANYBODY OUT THERE?…OUT THERE…OUT THERE…OUT THERE……………….

sparky,

I felt bad that no one responded to your thread (except you) so I thought I would. Sooo how’s the wife and kids, good , good. (just yanking your crank man)

Anyway I have read that some guys do have fat loss and because of that I have just bought a bottle today and will begin the regimen right away. I need a jump start and this seems as good as any. I will let you know.

I’ve been taking NO for a couple of weeks now. The main thing I notice is a slight loss of appetite. Nothing much in the way of weight change.

Usually I don’t eat after my evening meal at about 7pm unless I go out to dinner. So fasting is a long term thing for me.

I’ll see what a month or two will do, and maybe report anything unusual then.

Thanks for the reply guys!

I was getting ready to make some political commentary to fire this thread up…you saved me from myself!

I started taking the NOX2 again myself, and will see if it gets the fat burning fired up again. It could very well be that it is an effect specific to those that are low on dietary arginine…who knows?

Hell, I’ll be happy to started back down the road to a 6 pack again.

789,

We’re all fine…and you? :)

Since Thunder shut down Darkness at Noon, I don’t get to talk to my friends anymore!
It’s just as well, I got it all out of my system now. My dad finally offered an olive branch (after first beating me with it!) So, now back to the job of making my personal WMD with which to overrun the remaining boundaries of my wife’s defenses!

Sparkyx

By the way 789…

Please DO incorporate the 3 hour fast before bed if you are interested in fat loss! Hell, I’ll give you a money back guarentee that it will really increase your fat loss…and improve your health.

What ever money you paid for my advice will be returned…no questions asked!

Oh yeah (doesnt seem QUITE as desparate with other members on this page)

it is also good for heart health, and your vascular system health. Here is an interesting blurb on it;

L-Arginine/L-Ornithine (by Life Extension)

L-arginine is an essential amino acid that has been show to lower blood pressure, treat Hypertension and promote wound healing. Athletes have also found L-Arginine to be beneficial for muscle recovery and Growth Hormone Release. L-ornithine may be used as an alternative since it metabolizes to L-arginine in the body. If taken in doses larger that those normally obtained from your diet or if taken on an empty stomach, these amino acids may be helpful for:

Hypertension: L-arginine is required for the body to synthesize nitric oxide, which enables the arterial system to retain its youthful elasticity, thus alleviating hypertension in some people. Nitric oxide also helps to produce endothelial relaxation factor, which is needed by the arterial system to expand and contract with each heartbeat. The inability of arteries to expand and contract is a major cause of hypertension associated with aging. If you decide to try L-arginine to lower blood pressure, ask your physician to reduce your antihypertensive medication while you are increasing your intake of arginine. The suggested dose of L-arginine as a blood pressure lowering agent is 4500 mg three times daily. For some people, L-arginine does not lower blood pressure, so it’s crucial that your blood pressure be monitored to ensure that it is under control. L-ornithine is not a suitable alternative for this purpose since quick synthesis of nitric oxide is required.

Growth Hormone: L-arginine and L-ornithine have been shown to promote natural growth hormone (GH) release from the pituitary gland. GH promotes healthy anabolic metabolism throughout the body, helping to maintain youthful protein synthesis within cells. Aging causes a decline in protein synthesis that results in many of the degenerative diseases of aging, which may be partially corrected by enhancing GH serum levels. You can measure the GH enhancing effects of L-arginine/L-ornithine by measuring your blood levels of somatomedin C (IGF-1), a GH metabolite. L-ornithine is generally considered to be twice as potent as L-arginine for the purpose of GH release, so L-ornithine alone or in combination with L-arginine enables a person to take a smaller amount and still achieve the same GH releasing effects.

Wound Healing: Surgical or traumatic injury greatly increases the body’s need for L-arginine, a key building block to repair damaged tissue and bone. Numerous studies document enhanced wound healing in response to L-arginine supplementation. L-ornithine may also be used for this purpose.

Interesting huh!

Be sure to take it on an empty stomach, and wait at least 30 minutes before you eat anything.

Good luck and let me know how it does for you!

Sparky,

Staggered into the Gym yesterday (More to have a shower as I’m doing out my Bathroom at present) Did some benchpress and pushed an increase of 5 to 135lbs, and managed a lat pulldown of 137.5lbs.

Then found I’d lost 1 Kilo - 2.2lbs in weight, so it looks like some fat has gone in about 1 week. But this may get back again unless there is a further weight loss.

Petit.

Petit,

Don’t just go by the scale. Use a combination scale and waist size on your favorite pants.

If the scale stays the same, yet the waist of your pants are looser…you are losing fat and gaining muscle.

The the scale goes up, yet your pants get looser, you are gaining a lot of muscle.

The pants will give you a general idea of abdominal fat loss, the scale will give you an idea of muscle changes.

Good luck!

I started a thread about this several months ago here:NOX2 causing weightloss.

Great thread! Answers all my questions.

Did you order from the source indicated? Have you found a cheaper place to get the NO2 from?

Sounds like the ideal would be to take the NO2 during the day, and about 2 grams of GABA at night before bed after a 3 hour fast.

Thanks,

Sparkyx

I get it from body building.com, I used to take NOX2 from Pinnacle , but now I take NOX3 from Universal which is cheaper and also contains Ornithine Alpha-Ketoglutarate 100mg.

Here’s an old thread: NOX2 users - where’d you get it?

Redwood,

I PM’d you in case you are no longer checking this thread.

My question is, do you feel that NOX3 is as good or better than the NOX2 by Pinnacle?

It would be great if it is, because it is significantly lower price.

Thanks,

Sparkyx

oh yeah, do you know where to get a good price on the GABA?

I just replied to you about that in a PM.
Yes I find NOX3 just as effective as NOX2, and it is indeed cheaper.
If it is better, it’s tough to gauge exactly by how much, I’ve only got personal observation at my disposal.

The best source for GABA that I know of is here , it was a really great deal.
You get 8 100g bottles of GABA for $64.95US. (Taking 5g per day before you go to sleep has been found to be the best amount for producing HGH, so each bottle will last you around 20 days. I recommend you to get yourself a 1/2teaspoon scooper, as each 1/2teaspoon is a gram, so five scoops = 5g. You can take more than 5g if you want to and you will get even more HGH but the effecientcy drops after 5g so you might find your wasting GABA that way.)
This powder actually kind of tastes good, it has sort of a sweet taste to it, and compared to arginine powder if you’ve ever taken it, it tastes like sugar!

Fantastic Redwood!

Looks like a great price on GABA.

My son just got me my requested Christmas present…2 bottles of NOX2! I actually just asked for one…good son!

Now that I know about the NOX3, I will try that next time.

For fat loss, I only use two tablets a day so…humm, lets see…thats about 6 months of fat loss! Whoo hoo, not to mention larger loads, and healthier blood vessels.

I just started the Gaba, and all the articles I’ve read say it is the BOMB!

So 2 tabs of NOX2 in the day, and about 2-5 grams of GABA before bed.

I’ll let you know, but should be really good.
