Corduzin

Billy Boone said:

Reading the Bicyling magazine (October 2004) - and ran across an blurb about
Corduzin (question and answer). The article says it is scientifically
formulated to reduce fatigue and increase energy levels. It also says it is
legal in every nation and recognized by all athletic committes worldwide.
Corduzin gives your body the vitamins and minerals it needs to run faster on
less oxygen. Addit to your regimen, and you will see a huge difference in a
few weeks.

Sounds to good to be true (my father warned me of things like this).

Anyone have any experience with this 'supplement'??

Try this too while you're at it.

If it's legal, either it doesn't work* , or it's just vitamins. Are you
a pro? If not, why dope? That's what you're doing, in essence.

* = scientifically demonstrated to enhance performance.

It was NOT an article. It was an advertisement. That should tell you all
you need to know.

No, but in the absence of articles--not advertisements--published in a
reputable, refereed scientific journal, I think you'd get the same
results with snake oil.

Well, that's not entirely true. Hasn't caffeine been scientifically
demonstrated to enhance performance in endurance athletics, yet it's
still legal? Caffeine is not a vitamin.

And I think creatine has been shown to have some benefits in some power
sports, although the results are mixed.

I personally have no problem with people taking stuff that's legal to
improve their performance. I just don't think there's much out there
that's legal and that gives any benefit beyond the plecebo effect.

Unfortunately, there are many people who will take this stuff--and sign
up for rapid weight-loss supplements, etc.--who say, "Well, it might
work, but even if it doesn't there's no harm in trying." The harm is
done to your bank account.

Yeah, that's what I think.

I was exaggerating a little.

Which hurts your bank account!

Seriously, though, most of these products are just marketing. My
impression is that there's nothing wrong with them other than they can't
possibly do what they claim to do. There's less profit in a dangerous
supplement that doesn't work than in a safe supplement that doesn't
work. OTOH, I'm not going to risk it.

Thus my post to collect more data. I didn't simply read then dial up and
order some.

I have to admit ... I was fooled - after closer inspection ... you are right
.... this is an advertisement (which makes me very very skeptical - given
that supplements are not regulated I'm very hesitant).

I see no harm is researching possibilities for improving my performance.

do you know where I can find some of that stuff? I've gone through a vat of
cat's claw ( endorsed by Eric Estrada) , Shark Fin, and most recently a pvc
bucket of Dr.Phil 'Get-Real' powder ( also good as a talc), but have not seen
the snake oil at my local GNC-

probably designed to get the money in your pocket into theirs
