I have been aware of Withania somnifera (ashwagandha) for years, when it was a known Ayurvedic but long before it became "mainstream." It is, at best, an anti-oxidant in your application. Other studies have shown it to be beneficial as a mood-enhancer, anti-anxiety, and/or memory-enhancing herbal which might be beneficial to those suffering dementia. (I was researching it for use in Alzheimer's patients)
This situation reminds me of your remark regarding caco , where you indicated, "I just cash the checks." Here, it is clear you know little about your own product's ingredients.
To go one step further:
Where are the independent lab assays of your product, confirming the amounts of all the ingredients?
Where are your double-blind studies confirming the efficacy of your product?
I am betting you can't provide a single thing beyond your 'TV infomercial' marketing.... and that is fine, cause we all love infomercials. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/rolleyes.gif.c1fef805e9d1464d377451cd5bc18bfb.gif
But your weak attempt to rebuff my earlier, very brief remarks without proof of your stance is just that: weak.
So what are you saying bro?
I mixed Madness us in the bathtub at my condo?
That I brought in ish from Alibaba, didn't test the ingredients and lied about what is on the label?
GMP certified Bro!
Perhaps, in the future once the company is making more money I will do 3rd party testing but for now, I am trusting the formulation skills of Shawn Wells and the certification and manufacturing process of our manufacturer. Shawn Wells is legit. He just got hired to be the lead formulator for Dymatize and knows way more about formulation than you or I could dream of.
Besides, do you know how many companies actually have DBP's on their product? Not the individual ingredients, but the actual product? A handful. Instead most companies either hide behind a proprietary blend, or they use ingredients that themselves have been studied and proven to be effective. The ingredients are tested and all selected for a reason.
Should I do a DBP to prove that a combination of caffeine, creatine, beta alanine and L-norvaline help with atp production, energy, pumps and recovery? Whats the point? The ingredients are so well proven that basic common knowledge dictates they will work.
Add to the fact that we use the industry standard cGMP manufacture to make source, test and blend the ingredients and you can take mistrust out of the equation.
I know very well my strengths and weaknesses. Formulation is not one of them which is why I hired one of the best in the industry to formulate the product.
He stands behind his product and I stand behind him.
Quit using your hate for me to poo poo a product that clearly does the job. Any bro could tear apart any other product on the market since they all have pro's and cons.
Compare Madness to anything else out there. Jack3d, NO Shotgun, SP MAx, N0-Xplode, white flood and it will rank up there with the best of them.
If the best you can do is criticize Madness because of the adaptogens, and my lack of knowledge then I only have one question:
Why are you so angry?
