ok, i got my order of other bullshit products that i normally buy and found a tub of this in there, i think by mistake because there was no "free gift" stated on the invoice or anything. ive read up on the internet and general consensus is that they're a load of rubbish and i think they're basically meant for old men to get boners, but the man on the bottle has big muscles so i was thinking of eating them anyway. they're advertised as basically testosterone pills and make themselves out to be legal steroids if you read between the lines. what is peoples opinions? i dont really expect anyone to say anything positive to be honest, but surely they cant kill me either?

I used to like it & I know a lot of other guys with more knowledge than me could quite easily say why it doesn`t work etc etc.

What I found was that if I doubled/trebled the dose it worked a treat.

I tried it years ago and got nothing from it a far as I could tell. Maybe I should have tripled the dose!

A supplement manufacturer once told me that to get the best from it the dose should be at least doubled what it said on any tub.

I used stuff before that cookie recommended and took the does he said, all before bed if i remember rightly, Not sure if it helped with strength but i am sure i had a better sense of 'well being' (can't remember 100% though, it was a few years ago) but i remember DEFINITELY having the horn big time! like being a young teen having inappropriate hard on whilst using!
