Competitive Edge Labs Alpha One
Competitive Edge Labs Alpha One is a dietary supplement featuring a high-purity (95%) form of α-Cedrene, a sesquiterpene derived from cedarwood oil. This compound has been studied for its potential anabolic (muscle-building) and anti-catabolic (muscle-preserving) effects and its role in fat metabolism. Scientific Insights on α-CedreneMuscle Growth and Strength Enhancement:Research indicates that α-Cedrene can stimulate hypertrophy (increase in muscle size) and prevent muscle atrophy in cultured skeletal muscle cells. In animal models, α-Cedrene administration increased muscle mass, protein content, and strength. These effects are believed to be mediated through the activation of the MOR23 receptor and subsequent elevation of cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) levels, which play a crucial role in muscle function and growth . Fat Loss and Body Composition:In studies involving mice fed a high-fat diet, α-Cedrene supplementation resulted in reduced body weight gain, decreased visceral f
