Chrysine contains the powerful flavonoid chrysin (5,7 Dihydroxyflavone, found naturally in the plant Passiflora caerulea) and is uniquely able to inhibit the process of aromatization that converts male reproductive hormone into estrogens in men as they grow older. This process is largely responsible for their relative feminization, particularly gynecomastia.
Chrysin is a natural polyphenol found in several plants, including the Indian trumpet flower. However, it is most commonly found in blue passion flowers, hence why it is often called “passion flower extract.”
As a natural flavonoid supplement, chrysin, or 5,7 dihydroxyflavone, has a range of biological activities. According to one study, chrysin has been associated with oxidative stress prevention, anti-inflammation, and the prevention of carcinogenesis and neurodegeneration.
These flavonoid capsules have been associated with various groups. Technically, anyone can benefit from taking a chrysin supplement for their health, but some can benefit more than others.
While medicinal uses of Passiflora caerulea exist, many athletes take these supplements for their anti-inflammatory effects. In particular, 5,7 dihydroxyflavone for bodybuilding can reduce inflammation and improve muscle recovery.
The connection between flavonoids and muscle recovery has been established and re-established over the years, so if you live an active lifestyle, a chrysin supplement could bolster your performance.
Passionflower has been used since the 16th century to treat various ailments. Researchers are split on the potential benefits of passion flower capsules, but one area where they agree is that it is beneficial for human health.
Over time, passion flower has been marketed as a treatment for anxiety, insomnia, pain, inflammation, gastrointestinal symptoms, and infections. However, research is ongoing into all of these benefits.
We have incorporated passion flowers into this supplement to provide added benefits and make this an all-around supplement everyone can enjoy.
Several studies have shown that levels of male reproductive hormones increase when the action of the enzyme aromatase is blocked. Chrysin is used in conjunction with male reproductive hormone precursors or stimulators (Tribulus terrestris, tongkat ali, DHEA) to prevent the age-associated process of converting male reproductive hormone into estrogens.
Athletes and bodybuilders typically take two to three grams of chrysin a day. Those who simply wish to increase their levels of reproductive hormone and reduce estrogens generally take one to two grams a day, adapting the dose in response to the results achieved.
When taken alongside a Bioperine® supplement – a black pepper extract standardized in piperine, chrysin bioavailability can be significantly improved at little extra cost.
Passion flowers are renowned for their benefits. But, according to WebMD, the most common reason to use these supplements is to help with sleep and anxiety.
Adding passion flowers to your daily supplement routine can help your body relax and recover by promoting healthy sleep. But it can also treat anxiety, reducing the stress contributing to other health conditions.
