RAD-150

RAD-150, also known as TLB-150 Benzoate, is a remarkable compound which stabilizes the levels of testosterone. It works by mimicking the role of natural testosterone in your body. Because of esterification, a chemical reaction that forms at least one type of compound called ester (byproduct of acid and alcohol reaction), RAD-150 can last much longer in your body than its parent compound RAD-140 (about twice as long). Due to its high absorption rate, stability, and half-life of 48 hours, it offers a broad range of health benefits with little to no side effects and is significantly more effective than other selective androgen receptor modulators (SARMs).

Overall Health Benefits of RAD-150

  • Improves muscle mass and strength [1-4]
  • Maintains bone strength and quality [5-9]
  • Improves sexual function [10-12]
  • Improves urinary health [13-17]
  • Lowers the risk of cancer [18-21]

Proven Health Benefits by RAD-150

RAD-150 – Improves Muscle Mass and Strength

RAD-150 treatment can also help improve body composition by increasing muscle mass and strength:

  1. In mice models, SARMs administration resulted in increased muscle mass. [1]
  2. In patients with severe diseases (cancer, AIDS, and multiple sclerosis) that cause muscle wasting, RAD-150 treatment increased bone and muscle cell growth. [2]
  3. In bodybuilders, RAD-150 administration increased muscle mass, decreased fat tissue, and improved stamina and endurance during high-intensity interval training. [3]
  4. In animals, RAD-150 administration appears to increase lean muscle mass. [4]

Maintains Bone Strength and Quality

RAD-150, a highly effective SARMs, has been shown to strengthen the bone structures by aiding in bone formation:

  1. A review of multiple studies showed that SARMs like RAD-150 can stimulate bone growth. [5]
  2. In aged male rats with osteoporosis, SARMs therapy resulted in improved bone healing. [6]
  3. In rats, SARMs significantly improved bone health by promoting bone formation, strength, and mass. [7]
  4. In rats, SARMs were successful in preventing bone loss and promoting bone formation. [8]
  5. In rats who had surgical removal of the testicles, SARMs administration caused a significant increase in bone mass density (BMD). [9]

Improves Sexual Function

RAD-150 has also been shown to address sexual dysfunction due to various causes:

  1. A review of studies showed that SARMs administration is a possible treatment for sexual dysfunction due to hypogonadism (low testosterone). [10]
  2. In a castrated rodent model, SARMs treatment resulted in amelioration of sexual dysfunction and motor activity deficits. [11]
  3. In rats who had surgical removal of the ovaries, SARMs increased sexual motivation, with potency and efficacy comparable with testosterone propionate. [12]

Improves Urinary Health

The use of RAD-150 appears to reduce the prevalence of urinary tract infections and treat other urinary problems:

  1. In mice who had surgical removal of the ovaries, SARMs decreased symptoms associated with stress urinary incontinence (SUI). [13]
  2. In rats with impaired urethral continence function, SARMs administration enhanced the muscle function of the urethra. [14]
  3. In mice with SUI, SARMs improved urinary function by increasing pelvic floor muscle mass. [15]
  4. SARMs at varying doses (5, 10, and 25 mg/kg) decreased urinary symptoms associated with benign prostatic hyperplasia. [16]
  5. Repeated treatment with SARMs appears to decrease prostate weight. [17]

Lowers the Risk of Cancer

Evidence suggests that RAD-150 and other SARMs have anti-cancer properties:

  1. A review of studies showed that SARMs inhibited breast cancer growth. [18]
  2. In patients with breast cancer, RAD-150 treatment suppresses growth of cancer cells by blocking the effects of estrogen on tissues. [19-20]
  3. RAD-150 prevented the production of a protein called estrogen receptor 1 (ESR1), which is known to fuel cancer growth. [21]
