Forum question: what happened to the NO2 article?

[Reidar]

I'm sure that this has been addressed before, but I was unable to find any archived threads or anything about it with a Google search, so I actively ask you: what happened to the article explaining the health hazards of using NO2 supplements? That was useful ****, but it's a dead link for me now and it appears to no longer be listed on the site.

Many of the claims and ideas stated in that article by its author weren't, how should I say, entirely accurate or true. Therefore, ABC has taken it down and I'm sure there will be a new one coming soon since NO2 is such a hotly discussed issue.

[Reidar]

Ah, looking forward to it then.

That's pretty credible on abc's part.

I have that section of the article sitting in front of me. What claims weren't accurate?

[Crombie]

Yes, I would like to know too. I have all those articles archived, and it would be nice correct my base of knowledge rather than sit in the dark - so to say.

We want a more comphrehensive and objective analysis on those supplements before taking a final stance that they are worthless, which is what the article proported. So I would not say the information was innacurate; but we did not want to take this stance yet.

Concerning the BCAA portion, we have written dozens of articles on the topic (including a protein publication) that are far more expansive than this. So there was really no need to keep that.

Read Coz's 2nd post in this thread quoting the original article:

http://www.abcbodybuilding.com/forum/sho...rue#Post1138724 (http://www.abcbodybuilding.com/forum/showflat.php?Cat=0&Board=food&Number=1138724&Searc hpage=1&Main=1138717&Words=no2&topic=&Search=true# Post1138724)

This older post also has additional info:

Keep in mind that scientific/nutritional opinions change as new evidence reveals itself. The author, who is no longer here, has since changed his stance on NO2 supplements.

all I know about No2 is this

1. when they first came out there was TONS of advertising about how incredible it is
2. at the same time EVERY source that was not advertising said that it had no evidence of doing anything
3. The stuff is very very expensive.

It doesn't have to be expensive, and depending on the particular product, it generally works great! I am using v12 and am very impressed

As stated in the link I posted, several of his actions were beyond unacceptable. These actions did not occur over one period of time—they occurred repeatedly over a long period of time. Countless hours were invested into the situation by us, and we were willing to be as patient as it would take to resolve the situation; unfortunately, the issues were not resolved, nor were they going to be resolved. We have chosen not to go into gross detail on several extremely unprofessional events that took place, because we feel that would not accomplish anything and it is just gossip. I will just state that him not being a leader on this website, was absolutely a no brainier, because from a spiritual, business, and practically every other perspective you can think of, we were/are headed in completely opposite directions. And if any leader on this site ever acts that way, the same thing will happen, because we hold an extremely high standard for the leardership on this site. Anything less will destroy the cohesion and success of this site and its leadership.

We ask that you guys trust our judgment as the leaders of this website, that what took place, though unfortunate, was absolutely necessary for this website to continue to grow and prosper. And a year latter, we are unanimously 100% confident that the right decision was made.

Anyway, that event is over, and has been for over a year now, so it's time to move on. Please stay on topic for the remainder of this thread. If you guys would like to discuss further, feel free to pm. But as stated, I am not going to go into details on the actions that took place. It would take me much too long and is not right, in our assessment.
