Antaeus labs: 3,5-T2

No brand delivers the level of innovation which we have come to expect from Antaeus Labs with them repeatedly unearthing new ingredients that have been shown in research to deliver significant gains in a range of performance or body composition measures. With 3,5 T-2 Antaeus have now focused their attention on one of the pathways of fat loss which have rarely been tackled by any other company, namely the thyroid pathway.

Thyroid Hormone is Critical for fat Loss

When we hear about people saying they have a slow metabolism what this refers to is their body's ability to convert calories into energy (heat). Those with fast metabolisms oxidise a much greater proportion of calories as heat which leads to them being able to consume more calories while maintaining a lean condition. Those with slow metabolisms can certainly use thermogenics (stimulants that suppress appetite and increase calorie burn) but by using 3,5 T-2 they now have something which acts directly on the thyroid pathway which means whether they are used alone or in conjunction with other fat burners, it can have a dramatic impact on how much fat can be oxidised.

The Science of Antaeus Labs 3,5 T-2

3,5-T2 is a naturally occurring iodo-thryonine which has been demonstrated to increase resting metabolic rates and reduce body weight in humans. [1]  It does not exhibit the general thyromimetic side effects generally associated with T3 administration, but it nevertheless induces T3-like changes in gene expression. [2]  It is, moreover, demonstrably capable of directly activating thermogenesis in brown adipose tissue [3], favorably modulating lipid metabolism [4], and, perhaps most interestingly, rapidly stimulating mitochondrial respiration and enhancing mitochondrial function. [5]
 
Modular Series 3,5-T2 was very carefully manufactured in a fully cGMP facility, and is undoubtedly the best T2 product on the market.  Prior to blending and bottling, the active ingredient was combined with a red tracer chemical, to ensure that it is thoroughly dispersed during the blending process, so that each capsule contains an entirely accurate dose.

3,5-T2 is an essential addition to any serious weight-loss regimen.
