Kaizen Chrysin
Kaizen Chrysin is designed to eliminate female sex hormones from a man’s system. The main female sex hormone is of course estrogen. Kaizen Chrysin targets estrogen reduction by inhibiting the function of an enzyme called aromatase. Aromatase operates by converting testosterone into estrogen. This conversion lowers the bodies anabolic potential to grow muscle while increasing catabolic reactions. What does this mean? More estrogen makes it easier to lose muscle and harder to gain it. Kaizen Chrysin was thus designed to block estrogen production in order to keep testosterone levels high. (Take that, girly hormones!) Does Kaizen Chrysin really have the ingredients necessary to pull off these kind of results?
Ingredients
Chrysin:
Kaizen Chrysin only relies on two ingredients. The first is a compound called Chrysin, a passionflower flavone extract. A study in the 1980′s made this ingredient seem like the best aromatase inhibitor around. Under the microscope, it showed that it had the ability to block enzymes that used up testosterone to synthesize estrogen. But the results of the study could never be recreated when conducted among living test subjects. Eventually, scientists came to the consensus that Chrysin does not have the ability to pass through cell membranes, thus keeping it out of the bloodstream. Experts now agree that Chrysin has no power to influence testosterone or estrogen levels in any way.
Lysophosphatidylcholine:
Lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC) is a compound included by Kaizen Chrysin for its supposed ability to increase the permeability of cell membranes. Some studies have shown that LPC can open cell barriers in order for the bloodstream to better absorb other ingredients. Thus LPC has been added to supposedly help the body more capable of absorbing Chrysin. Though some studies have shown that LPC can increase permeability, there have also been contradictory findings. Some studies show that it radically decreases permeability. With this conflicting results, LPC obviously needs to undergo more clinical study before being used in a supplement.
Conclusion
Sadly, the ingredients in Kaizen Chrysin just don’t cut it. Chrysin has been proven ineffective on its own and LPC is still under debate. Your money would be more safely spent on a testosterone supplement that has the clinical proof to back it up. We recommend looking for something else.
