RAD140

RAD140 is an investigational selective androgen receptor modulator (SARM) for the treatment of conditions such as muscle wasting and breast cancer, currently under development by Radius Health, Inc. (RDUS).[1][2][3][4]

Health Effects

According to a study conducted by researchers at the University of Southern California, Los Angeles, RAD 140 appears to be safer than testosterone replacement therapy.[5]

Another study conducted in February 2011 found that RAD 140 (Testolone) drastically increases lean muscle mass, by targeting androgen receptors in skeletal tissue.[6]

While more research needs to be done, some recreational users report that RAD 140 can lead to rapid muscle gains, with minimal side effects.[7]
