8.Introduction:
Epicatechin is a naturally-occurring substance (technically, a "monomeric flavanol") found in a variety of common foods, including certain fruits, green and white tea, and, especially, cocoa. Diets rich in epicatechin, or other flavanoids, have been linked to a number of health benefits, such as a lower risk of dementia.
1. Myostatin inhibition - the secret to amazing muscle gain
Those of you old enough to live through the 90's era of bodybuilding will remember when myostatin first came to prominence after photographs of some seriously jacked cows were published showing a level of muscularity that was simply shocking.
2. The epicatechin/myostatin connection
Research with epicatechin indicates that it increases levels of follistati, a special type of protein found in the muscles, which binds to and thereby inhibits the actions of myostatin in the body. In a nutshell, more follistat equals less myostatin, which in turn means more muscle mass.
3. Epicatechin and follistati A study conducted on males
of an average age of 40 showed that approximately 170mg of epicatechin per day, dosed at 2mg per kg of bodyweight, resulted in almost a 50% increase in follistati and a 16.6% decrease in myostatin, alongside a strength increase of 7%. In a second study, researchers provided participants with 50-200mg of epicatechin a day and were amazed to find that their follistati levels were 250% higher after just 5 days.
4. Epicatechin and endurance
In a study performed on mice, dosing epicatechin at 1mg/kg of bodyweight resulted in increases in nitri xide and endurance that persisted even in the absence of exercise. In other words, epicatechin supplementation offers bodybuilders the potential for better muscle pumps and endurance even when they are not training.
5. Epicatechin and health
As bodybuilders we sometimes overlook the importance of health, but without good health it is of course impossible to optimise one's fitness levels. A Harvard University study from 2007 shows that epicatechin appears to lower the risk of lethal events linked with four common diseases - diabetes, strokes, cardiovascular disease and cancer - by approximately 10%. A different study conducted by the Salk Institute showed that epicatechin not only improved blood but also seemed to enhance memory, with exercise having a further amplifying effect.
6. Epicatechin and body composition
Finally we turn our attention to a 2012 study, which showed that dark chocolate consumption led to a reduction in body fat even in the presence of a higher calorie intake. The researchers concluded that it was likely to be the high epicatechin content of dark chocolate that helped improve participants' body composition by promoting fat loss alongside concomitant muscle gain.
