RAD140 is an investigational selective androgen receptor modulator (SARM) for the treatment of conditions such as muscle wasting and breast cancer.
The enormous benefits of RAD 140 (Testolone) offered to a person's athletic performance, as well as their physical gains, are not unnoticed.
RAD 140 (Testolone) was a new version of the classic anabolic steroids, however, without their main problem (namely the numerous negative effects on the user's health).
The limited side effects of RAD 140 (Testolone) (always compared to anabolic steroids) are due to the "selective action" of this chemical.
RAD 140 (as a SARM) was created to imitate the effects of androgens.
Unlike anabolic steroids, it works with a more selective action concentrating exclusively on the bone tissue and muscles, without affecting the rest of the organs.
In addition, for the novice users, let us explain the following very important difference between SARMs and anabolic steroids.
SARMs – precisely due to their selective effect - do not cause damage to the liver, as anabolic steroids with their more extensive action.
This is the most basic reason why SARM RAD 140 (Testolone) has acquired so many followers and fanatical users in the sports field in such a short time.
RAD140 has become popular in men with low testosterone levels who want to avoid testosterone replacement therapy but are looking to maintain their physical and sexual performance. Such use is still completely anecdotal, without research to back it up.
In fact, without complete studies, testosterone replacement therapy remains a safer approach than using SARMs like testolone. Remember that we know nothing about the safety profile of this experimental, unapproved drug, while testosterone’s effects are well-studied and predictable.
Research is currently investigating the potential role of RAD140 in increasing muscle mass, fighting breast cancer, and protecting brain cells.
RAD140 works by selectively stimulating androgen receptors in the body. It targets receptors in the muscle and bone and has had little to no observed effect on the reproductive organs.
This compound stimulates muscle growth by promoting the development of muscle cells and proteins.
The selective ability of SARMs is not fully understood yet. According to some researchers, they may target and selectively activate different proteins than testosterone. This results in only certain androgen receptors – mainly in the muscles – being activated.
The chemical structure of RAD140 is very different from the structure of steroid hormones like testosterone. Thus, the pathways that convert testosterone into other hormones (like estrogen) cannot act on testolone.
Based on a study in rats, some researchers have suggested that RAD140 could activate receptors in injured regions of the brain. In the brains of rats given RAD140, MAPK activity increased, thus protecting neurons from damage.
Metabolism: Testolone has the best work for reducing body fat and improving the body's metabolic rate. It involves the androgen receptors that are connected to the tissues of the muscles and bones. It enhances the proteins' activities and the nutrients for better muscle production.
Absorption: Well absorbed following parenteral administration.
Route of elimination: Urinary excretion
Half life: The half-life of the RAD 140 Testolone is estimated (approximately) at 20 hours.
All medicines may cause side effects, but many people have no, or minor, side effects. Some medical conditions may interact with Testolone.
Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you have any medical conditions.
The most common side effect is increased anxiety and agitation. It may be because RAD 140 SARMs can increase testosterone levels in the body. Other side effects include headaches, nausea, and dizziness.
This is not a complete list of all side effects that may occur. If you have questions about side effects, contact your health care provider.
