Ingredients of the BPS-Pharma - Not4Pussy Transform-U-Matrix Black Legacy Edition

A total of 14 active ingredients are listed on the label. The serving size is 1 scoop or 10 grams and contains a total of 32 servings.

Let's get to the individual ingredients and their dosages:

L-citrulline DL-malate (1: 1): The Citrulline it is an amino acid that can also be produced by the body itself, therefore these amino acids are also referred to as non-essential amino acids. at Citrulline-Malat is the amino acid Citrulline bound to an ester, here in a 1: 1 ratio (a ratio of 2: 1 is common, however). Citrulline ensures increased nitrogen oxide production in the body and thus better blood circulation. The malate optimizes the aerobic metabolism and improves the energy supply to the muscles. The dosage of 3333 mg Citrulline-Malat or 1833 mg Citrulline could be higher.

Oxystorm® (Amaranthus hypochondriatus) leaf powder: Here we come to the first of two prominently advertised ingredients, the patented active ingredient Oxystorm. This is a source of nitrate. Oxystorm contains about 5 times the amount of nitrate as betaines, i.e. beetroot extract, which can often be found in pump boosters. Nitrate stimulates the formation of Nitric oxide (NO). this ensures that the Dilated blood vessels, the Blood circulation promoted and the Improves the supply of oxygen and nutrients to the muscles will. With 1133 mg, this is a very good dosage.

N-Acetyl L-Tyrosine: N-acetyl tyrosine is the acetylated form of L-tyrosine and ensures its better absorption and bioavailability. L-tyrosine is a non-essential amino acid and forms the precursor of dopamine, which has a mood-enhancing effect. It also sharpens tyrosine the focus, increases motivation and counteracts tiredness. With 1000 mg, the dosage is in an optimal range, common dosage recommendations are between 300 mg and 1500 mg.

Nitrosigine® (Inositol-Stabilized Arginine): The second prominently advertised ingredient. Nitrosigine is an active ingredient patented by Nutrition21, which is made from the amino acid L-Arginine and silicate. This connection is stabilized by inositol, a vitamin-like substance. The aim is to counteract the breakdown of nitrosigine in the body and extend the duration of its effect. Arginine represents the starting material for the formation of nitric oxide, which in turn dilates the vessels and improves blood flow, which ultimately results in the desired pump. Regeneration should also be improved. The recommended dosage is usually 750 - 1500 mg. With 1100 mg, this is a very good dosage.

Taurine: Taurine is a non-essential amino acid and a real "all-rounder". Taurine is supposed to promote alertness, boost fat burning, increase mental performance and have an antioxidant effect. The usual intake recommendations are 1000-3000 mg. It contains 666 mg.

Glucuronolactone: Glucuronolactone is a carbohydrate that is part of the connective tissue of many animals and plant fibers and mucilage. Glucuronolactone is said to have performance-enhancing properties, especially in combination with Caffeine. Common dosage recommendations do not exist. 2400 mg per liter are permitted for energy drinks in Germany. Here we have included 333 mg.

Alpha GPC: Alpha GPC is a precursor of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine and has positive effects on memory performance. The effect on the training focus is particularly interesting for athletes. In most cases, it is recommended to take 300 - 600 mg. Here we reach this 300 mg.

Caffeine: Of course you can Caffeine not missing. Caffeine strengthens the heartbeat, increases the pulse rate and thus ensures that the blood vessels in your muscles expand. In this way, the athletic performance is massively increased. It contains 200 mg, a rather average dosage that should also allow beginners to consume this booster.

Ashwagandha root powder: Ashwagandha is best known for reducing stress. In addition, it also has other positive properties such as promoting cognitive performance, strengthening the immune system or increasing internal drive. For acute use, the recommended dosage is 300 - 500 mg. Here we find 200 mg.

L-Theanine: L-theanine has a calming, stress-reducing and focus-sharpening effect. In cooperation with Caffeine it affects the classic side effects of Caffeine such as nervousness or an increased heart rate. With the 167 mg contained here, we are in the range of the usual dosage recommendations, which are 150 - 400 mg.

Glutathione: Glutathione is found in almost all human cells and is formed by the body from the three amino acids glutamine, glycine and cysteine. L-glutathione has immune-boosting, detoxifying and antioxidant functions. Usually a dosage of 250 mg is recommended. Here we have 133 mg.

Pine Bark extract (Pinus sylvestris)

Proanthocyanidins: Pine bark extract is a natural plant extract obtained from the bark of the pine. It contains a high concentration of oligomeric proanthocyanidins (OPC), which helps protect cells in the body from oxidative stress. Here we have included 190 mg of proanthocyanidins, which is a good dosage.

Bitter orange (Citrus aurantium) powder: Citrus aurantium extract, from which synephrine is obtained, is included to increase energy metabolism and fat burning. It contains 67 mg of the Citrus Aurantium extract, but we cannot say how many mg of it are actually synephrine.

Black Pepper (Piper nigrum) extract: Black pepper extract increases the bioavailability of the other active ingredients. Here we have 3,3 mg black pepper extract or 3,2 mg Piperine.

Conclusion ingredients:

BPS Pharma supplies some interesting ingredients as well as tried and tested ingredients. In our opinion, some of the ingredients could be dosed a little higher. Overall, however, it is a good and balanced mix of pump and focus ingredients as well as ingredients to increase the energy level.

Package design

Black, aggressive, loud, stylish - that's the packaging design. The can is classic black, the rest of the design is also limited to the colors black, white and silver, "garnished" with red accents. The typical "cat's head" with # Not4Pussy lettering is prominently emblazoned on the front. We particularly like the “cyborg look” of the cat's head, a mixture of aggressive cat and robot - very successful. Of course, on the front you can also find the full product name as well as the portion size and the content of 320 grams. On the back you can find the other "supplement facts" such as the portion size, list of ingredients (only in English), ingredients per 100 grams and on a portion size related (also in English). Furthermore, the product description, the consumption recommendation and warnings. The flavor is indicated above the barcode. Various “seals” such as GMP certification (Good Manufacturing Practice), the “Vegan” and “CMO Free” labels are also included. Of course, the patented ingredients Oxystorm and Nitrosigine are also listed separately as an extra lettering or label.

Taste and solubility: both convinced us!

The booster is available in the following 3 flavors:

• Blue Killa Razz
• Mojito Sour
• White Peach Ice Tea

 We tested the variant Blue Killa Razz. The recommended dose is 1 scoop (10 grams). The recommended amount of liquid is 200-300 ml of water and the whole should then be consumed 20-30 minutes before training.

After shaking, the powder dissolves almost completely and residue-free, only a few residues remain on the bottom of the shaker.

In terms of taste, the booster can convince. Not too sweet, no unpleasant or bitter aftertaste and a nice fruity note. However, the associated taste that one expects from “Blue Killa Razz” is not met. For us it tastes more like red fruits or a bit like red grits. Nevertheless, it was successful, even if it missed the topic.

Effect of the Not4Pussy Transform-U-Matrix

First of all: no booster works the same for all consumers, so effect reports are always subjective experience reports. The Not4Pussy booster has been tested several times by two team members; the sensations were similar in both. The test was carried out with a scoop.

🤓 alertness and energy (7/10)

As expected, alertness and energy are on a solid and good level. The booster begins to take effect after around 20 minutes. With 200 mg Caffeine is the amount of Caffeine kept quite moderate and also beginner-friendly.

🤯 Focus and Drive (7.5/10)

This is where the booster shows its strength. Focus and drive are on an above-average level. The focus is very pleasant and crystal clear, but those who expect tunnel vision will be a bit disappointed here.

💪 Pump and Vascularity (9/10)

Here the booster goes a step further. Pump and vascularity are also above average. This is where the active ingredients Oxystorm and Nitrosigine make themselves felt. Not quite on the level of a pure pump booster, of course, but definitely more than remarkable for an "all-rounder".

😈 Performance and exhaustion (8/10)

The booster also plays a role in terms of performance. This is particularly due to the crystal-clear focus, which concentrates and accompanies you throughout the gym session with good muscle control.

☠️ End of action and side effects (9/10)

After about 2,5 hours, the booster will wear off, and the pump will last a little longer. No side effects could be observed.

Price-performance ratio: fair

At 38,90 euros for 32 servings, the booster is definitely one of the cheaper representatives on the market, despite the limited version and the patented active ingredients, which are of course also more expensive to buy. This results in a price of around 1,22 euros per serving. Experienced users can increase the portion to 1,5 times or even double the amount, the dosage of the ingredients certainly does. However, this would also put the low price into perspective. If you are interested in the booster, the 200 mg Caffeine However, if the dosage is too low, you can simply go to our partner shop stayfocused.de Caffeine Order tablets and then increase the amount of caffeine to a total of 400 mg, at an attractive price at the same time.

Over-all conclusion

With its Black Legacy Edition, BPS-Pharma has brought a booster onto the market which, in particular, thanks to the two patented ingredients Oxystorm® and Nitrosigine®, is very popular when it comes to pumps. The focus is also at an above-average level and does not need to hide behind other boosters. Overall, the booster looks very well coordinated and can be called a real all-rounder, which performs above average in all categories and at a fair price.
