Note 2: BloodShr3d War is another version of this supplement, except it does not contain Rauwolscine. Everything else is identical though!
BloodShr3d uses a powerful combination of ingredients with proven weight loss effects. This stimulant-powered, flavored fat burner brings everything you’d expect from a well-dosed thermogenic: energy,focus, as well as appetite suppression, euphoria, and best of all weight loss!
Olympus Labs BloodShr3d Ingredients
Maximum Lipolysis Activating Matrix
Green Coffee (1g) Green Coffee Bean Extract (GCBE) has come under lots of fire in recent years, when it was shown to not be the miracle weight loss supplement that it was initially hyped to be. However, that doesn’t mean the ingredient is completely useless, as it is rich in a potent compound called chlorogenic acid.
Olympus Labs utilizes a GCBE extract standardized to 50% Chlorogenic acid, the highest quality GCBE which yields 500mg of the powerful compound. Where GCBE failed in regards to effective weight loss, chlorogeinc acid has proven successful.Basically, supplementing with chlorogenic acid improves an important marker of symptoms related to Type 2 diabetes and obesity.
Sophora Japonica (400mg) is type of flower traditionally used as a herbal remedy in China, Japan and Korea to treat a variety of ailments including hemorrhoids and hematemesis. It’s also rich in a citrus flavonoid called rutin (rutinoside), which offers some rather interesting weight loss properties.
Clinical studies on the flavonoid have found that it can have beneficial effects on combatting obesity via AMPK activation. Increased AMPK activation stimulates glucose uptake and fat oxidation. Rutin has also been found to decrease inflammation in the body, which further helps the body fight the deleterious effects of unsightly weight gain.
Caffeine (250mg) makes just about everything in life better, from energy to mood to even focus. But best of all, it’s great for aiding fat loss! Not only does caffeine help the body oxidize fatty acids, but it also increases daily energy expenditure and lipolysis (a.k.a. fat burning).
Rhodiola Rosea (100mg) when you first hop on a diet and start feeling the effects of low energy due to lack of calories, you tend to get a little stressed out and irritable. Fortunately, OL has included a hefty dose of the powerful adaptogen to help reduce some of the mental fatigue you feel from stressful situations.
Stress reduction only begins to scratch the surface of this powerful botanical, as rhodiola can also support your weight loss efforts. Some other research into the potent adaptogen has shown it helps combat binge eating.The bio-active compounds contained within Rhodiola responsible for its power are salidroside and rosavin.
Vanillin (5mg) is a phenolic aldehyde that is the primary component of vanilla bean that gives it the distinct flavor and aroma it’s well known for. You might be wondering why it’s included in a fat burner?
Well for a couple of reasons actually. First and foremost, Vanillin is a selective agonist of transient receptor potential vanilloid subtype 1 (TRPV1); fyi, TRPV1 agonists are known to increase energy metabolism and induce lipolysis.Other great benefits of this aromatic aldehyde are that vanillin improves mood and can help offset signs of depression. Lastly, vanillin also is good for overall health as it also has been shown to reduce levels of triglycerides, VLDL, and total cholesterol level.
Extreme Energy, Focus, & Thermogenic Trifecta (306mg)
Eria Jarensis is nothing new to the quickly-growing Olympus Labs fanbase. Eria is one of the most popular new stims on the market that’s loaded with a number of PEA-based ingredient including N-methyl-PEA, N,N-dimethyl-PEA, and the most important of all N-phenethyl dimethylamine
More than anything else, eria jarensis is noted for its distinct “euphoric” feeling that lasts longer than regular PEA typically does. Overall feedback from those who’ve experienced the effects of eria jarensis note significantly increased energy and mood.
The real big thing lately, however, is to mix this ingredient with the next one (or similar), and once again Olympus Labs is ahead of the curve here:
J. Regia Extract is a variety of walnut tree indigenous to Southwest China and the Himalayas. We believe OL is extracting for 2-amino-5-methylheptane (not 2-amino-6). 2-amino-5 is reportedly much stronger, and more expensive than the 2-amino-6 variant seen in a few other pre workouts.
2-amino-5-methylheptane is one of many aliphatic amines, DMAA being the most well known, that delivers a powerful mood-enhancing effect like few other ingredients on the market can.In addition to its mood and energy enhancing qualities, J. Regia also has found uses in the medical world where it’s used to treat diabetes as well as help lower cholesterol and lipid levels.
Rauwolfia Serpentina Extract (6mg) Rauwolscine is another powerful stimulant packed into BloodShr3d that’s best suited to small doses due to its potency. In terms of fat loss effects, rauwolscine functions as a strong alpha-2 antagonist that helps prevent fat storage in the body.
Here’s the main difference between BloodShr3d Raw and BloodShr3d War. The RAW version contains rauwolscine. Everything else is the exact same, so by our math, that means there’s 6mg worth of Alpha-Yohimbine in BloodShr3d Raw, a fairly hefty amount!
There are two reasons why you might one want rauwolfia serpentina extract: first, it might be illegal in your country; and second, some people get a bit anxious from this and other yohimbe-like ingredients. However, we note that rauwolscine seems to create lower anxiety than yohimbine, so if you’re a yohimbe-lover, you should be fine with rauwolscine as well!
