I’ve never taken the product, but from reading all the threads bout BSN NO-Xplode, the answer is in the product: NO. As in this product is NO good, do NOt use this product.

The only problem with your theory is that you assume all people who are on this forum somehow benefit from the profits of Biotest. I don’t understand that. Why does the fact this is a Biotest website have anything to do with my opinion, or any other general member? I could see how you would say that about some of the authors, although I would imagine if it was a good product they wouldn’t bash it regardless. Hell if it was a good or useful product Biotest would have their own version. If you are benefiting from it great, by all means keep buying it. But it doesn’t change the general consensus that it’s a useless product.
my point is its like going on a nike forum and talking about adidas shoes, the general population are going to be bias towards nike or in this case Biotest otherwise they’d be on another forum…
Again that still doesn’t wash. Biotest does not make a competing product to NOX, whereas Adidas does make a competing product to Nike. There is no bias applicable when comparing apples to oranges.[/quote]
Yes, but Biotest is in competition with all the companies manufacturing NO2 products. So if they can convince people that NO2 products are crap, then those people are effectively convinced that those companies are manufacturing crappy products, making Biotest look honest and virtuous, forgoing the manufacturing of this VERY fashionable supplement despite the profit they’d stand to make if the produced it. Biotest wouldn’t have published that Barrticle if they didn’t stand to benefit.

Believe whatever you want. Conspiracy theories have no place in the real world. Biotest has never said that all products BSN makes are crap. They specifically called out NO2 products.

Conspiracy theory? LOL.
Anyway, in this real world you feel so informed about, rival companies are willing to do things other than simply make the best product possible priced at the equilibrium price to beat the competition. They want the lion’s share of the market (rightfully so!) and if they can make competitors look like rats then it’s a good idea to do so. That makes them better by comparison.
This is no conspiracy theory, this is a tried and true practice which, if used effectively, promises high ground. Biotest doesn’t need to say “X company makes crap products,” if they can write an article that will result in the reader drawing that conclusion on his/her own.
BTW, N.O. Explode made my veins fucking HUGE. Forearms looked like they were about to burst and my biceps had the one large vein with several smaller ones running on the side.

Well if this is true (which it obviously is) then it would be up to the consumer to be educated enough to know whether or not a product is good instead of blindly following others or succumbing to subliminal advertising of others. In my opinion, only those who have used NO2 products can review them, good or bad. There are some on here who say the products suck who’ve never tried them. That’s not right. I would say most who say they are a placebo, have tried them. I have tried them.
Did we beat this one to death yet?

Get some coffee, Gatorade, creatine, and make your own
The probable reason for “not being able to workout without” NO-xplode, is that after taking in all that caffeine and suddenly coming off it results in withdrawal symptoms.
