300mg Epicatechins at a Solid Dose, Straight-Up Capsules

Blackstone Labs Epi Cat is a straightforward capsule product focused on one main goal: hitting you with a solid dose of epicatechins to boost blood flow, improve your workouts, and maybe give a muscle-building edge, all without a bunch of extra junk on the label. It's not some everything-but-the-kitchen-sink muscle booster. It's a no-nonsense epicatechin setup with green tea extract as backup, perfect for people who get that simpler can be better when the key stuff is dosed right.

The star here is 300mg epicatechins. That's key because epicatechin is a polyphenol — a natural compound from plants — that's got real research on improving blood vessels in sports nutrition. It works by boosting nitric oxide through something called eNOS (endothelial nitric oxide synthase) and keeping NO around longer, which helps widen blood vessels and improve flow. In the gym, that means more oxygen and nutrients hitting your muscles, leading to better pumps. It's also looked at for building more mitochondria — the powerhouses in cells — and better insulin sensitivity, which help with performance and how your body uses food. For bodybuilders, the cool part is its potential with follistatin and myostatin — proteins that affect muscle growth. That's why it's called a 'myostatin support' ingredient. Truth is, the idea is interesting, but real human results for big muscle gains are still up in the air. It shines most for blood flow and vessel health; the pure muscle-building stuff is still developing.

The dose is a big win here. Studies often talk about 200–300mg as effective, and Epi Cat gives you the full 300mg — that's the high end, making it way better than products that just add a tiny bit for show. You should not expe

Blackstone Epi Cat by Blackstone Labs contains 700mg Green Tea (Camellia sinesis) (Leaf) Extract, a effective dose for health and performance.

Key Highlights

  • 300mg Epicatechins — this is the main event and the key number to check. Studies point to 200–300mg as the sweet spot, so Epi Cat nails the top of that range instead of just tossing in a pinch for the label.
  • Epicatechin boosts nitric oxide via eNOS activity and keeping NO available. That leads to wider blood vessels, better flow, and the fuller, more vascular feel during workouts that you're really after.
  • Strong evidence for blood flow and pressure support makes epicatechin legit. Even if the muscle gains are still being figured out, its vascular benefits beat out a lot of stuff in this category.
  • Myostatin appeal without the hype. Epicatechin gets studied for shifting follistatin-to-myostatin ratios, which is why lifters grab it, but this keeps it real with a dose that's actually meaningful.
  • 700mg Green Tea extract brings in a second boost. It adds more catechins — active compounds in tea — and helps with body comp, making this great for cutting or recomp.
  • Just two ingredients, both fully listed. No hidden blends here, so you can check every milligram against what you've read instead of guessing.
  • Capsules make it easy to stay consistent. If you're tired of powders and shakers, this two-cap serving is simple to pop daily.
  • Light on stims for more flexibility. Green tea can give a bit of energy, but it's not loaded with caffeine, so it pairs well with other stuff or later workouts.

Who Is This For?

  • Bodybuilders in a growth phase wanting more than just energy. The 300mg epicatechins is why you buy this — a good dose for nitric oxide, flow, and that full muscle chase.
  • Lifters cutting or recomping who need body comp help without heavy fat burners. 700mg green tea adds metabolism and catechins, while epicatechins keeps pumps strong when calories drop.
  • Mid-level gym rats with creatine and protein covered, looking for a simple capsule add-on for lean muscle. It's targeted, not a bloated everything product.
  • Late-day trainers needing lighter stims than typical pre-workouts. Not zero caffeine, but way milder, easier for evenings if you're sensitive.
  • Pump chasers focused on flow and fullness without another powder. Epicatechin's nitric oxide support gives real vascular help, especially with citrulline.
  • Folks curious about myostatin and follistatin but wanting straight talk. This has the key ingredient at a solid dose, without overhyping the science.

How to Use

Take 2 capsules with 8–12 ounces of water about 30–45 minutes before lifting. That gives time for it to kick in before heavy sets. If you're super sensitive to stims, try 1 cap first since green tea can add energy even without listed caffeine. Okay with a light meal if your stomach acts up, but heavy food might slow it. On rest days, many keep the full dose for routine, especially in a body-comp plan. Stacks well with creatine and citrulline pumps. Don't pile on tons of thermogenics or high-caffeine stuff until you test it. Keep the bottle cool and dry, away from heat. No need for strict cycling like heavy stim products, but breaks are smart if mixing caffeinated things.

What to Expect

First 0–15 minutes are chill since it's capsules and low-stim. By 20–45 minutes, some feel a light lift from green tea, but the real deal is in the workout: better veins, fuller muscles, cleaner pumps. Mid-session, it's subtle but helpful, not over-the-top. No big crash from this alone, but watch if stacking stims. Days 1–7 keep it low-key and tied to training. Weeks 2–4 is where it clicks with consistent workouts — steadier pumps, better sessions, fitting lean or cut goals.

Key Ingredients

  • Epicatechins — 300mg — Clinically aligned epicatechin dose for blood flow and fullness
  • Green Tea (leaf) extract — 700mg — Catechin-rich metabolic support for leaner recomposition phases

Frequently Asked Questions

How much epicatechins is in Blackstone Labs Epi Cat?

Each full 2-capsule serving provides 300mg epicatechins. That is the key active in the formula and aligns with the 200–300mg range commonly referenced for epicatechin research and performance-focused use.

What does the 700mg green tea extract do in Epi Cat?

The 700mg green tea extract gives Epi Cat a secondary body-composition angle. It complements epicatechins by adding catechin-rich metabolic support and a mild low-stim energy component, making the product more useful during cutting and recomposition phases.

Is Epi Cat a myostatin inhibitor?

Epi Cat is marketed in that conversation because epicatechin is studied for its potential influence on the follistatin-to-myostatin ratio. The honest answer is that the mechanism is interesting and the ingredient is legitimate, but human evidence for dramatic direct myostatin inhibition and muscle gain remains mixed rather than definitive.

Is Blackstone Labs Epi Cat a stimulant product?

It is best described as low-stim, not stimulant-free. The formula contains green tea extract, which can contribute naturally occurring caffeine, but total caffeine is not disclosed and this is not built like a traditional high-stim pre-workout.

When should I take Epi Cat?

Most users do best with 2 capsules taken 30–45 minutes before training with water. Some also use it daily, including rest days, when they want a consistent routine as part of a multi-week recomp or lean-gain stack.

Can I stack Epi Cat with a citrulline pump pre-workout?

Yes, that is one of the smartest ways to use it. Epicatechin supports nitric oxide signaling and vascular function, while L-citrulline increases arginine availability for NO production, creating a more complete blood-flow stack.

Will I feel Epi Cat right away?

Not like a heavy caffeine pre-workout. Most users notice more subtle effects such as improved vascularity, better pumps, and a cleaner training feel, with the formula making more sense over repeated workouts than from a single serving.

Is Epi Cat beginner-friendly?

Yes, in terms of complexity and stimulant load. It is only two active ingredients with transparent dosing, though beginners should still understand that this is a niche physique-support product, not a substitute for creatine, protein, calories, and training consistency.

Does Epi Cat need to be cycled?

There is no strict requirement to cycle epicatechin itself in the way users often cycle very aggressive stimulant products. If you are stacking Epi Cat with other caffeinated or thermogenic supplements, periodic breaks from the broader stack are still a good idea.

Is Epi Cat vegetarian?

No. The capsule uses gelatin, so it is not suitable for vegetarians or anyone avoiding animal-derived capsule shells.

Great Watch For the Money
Color: Black/Black, Style: AE1000W-1BVCF
I have been purchasing Casio watch products for over 25 years now. Their watches are low cost and nicely designed. I was not let down when I received this watch and all for 18 dollars. The watch is nice looking, has mostly usable features which fulfills its purpose. For a watch that costs under 20 dollars this is a great knock-around piece that can be worn in any setting. Whether hiking/climbing in the woods, fixing the car, swimming or just plain rough housing with my kids, having a low cost and functional watch that fits all my needs really makes this product a great buy. This Casio comes with several functions: 1) You can track up to 4 different time zones. Since I do a fair amount of business travel (about 1x a month), I am constantly in different time zones. Now I can set them easily. 2) The watch has a manual DST setting which I don't mind. It's literally a push of a button. 3) It is water resistant to 10 Bar. This means swimmers, surfers, etc... can use this watch with confidence. 4) It comes with a typical alarm. I always make sure I know how to turn this off, because you know somehow some 2 or 3 year old will get it and find a way to turn on the alarm so that it wakes you and 0200 in the morning. 5) Stop watch. Not much to say here. I use it for running/walking Cons: A couple of oddball design features that are difficult to see. 1) The upper right hand circle is actually a visual of an analogue watch, so that if you look at another time zone besides the one that you set for your home city, you can get a quick view of the time. Not so easy to see. 2) The time zone characterization is also difficult to see and not so sure it is necessary, since the back of the directions lists out the cities you can use to select the proper time zones. So this may not be a "smart" watch which seems to be very popular these days, but I will say the price makes it very worth while. If you need a knock-around that looks nice and has the core functions you need, I think you will be very satisfied with this product. You know... maybe some things don't need to be smart. Enjoy!

It is mini computer for such a low price. My favorite. Just go for it, you will be amazed!
Color: Black, Style: AE-1000W-1AVDF
I would say this is a mini computer and I keep wondering how could they put these many functions inside this small watch and offering it for 15 dollars.I'm blown away by this wonderful product and this is my favorite watch all the time and I rarely wear my other watches. Isn't this amazing that it got the time for close to 50 cities and I can select 4 of them in T1(Home City), T2, T3 and T4 to easily flip through using the bottom right button. This functionality helped me a lot during my 2 international trips through multiple transits. Before the departure I select all the Cities that I'm transiting through so that I can easily flip to that time zone when I land in that airport and I do not need to rely on airport clock or internet to know the time and calculating the time left for catching my connecting flight. I love this watch especially for this functionality. While scrolling through the time zones for selection the tiny world map in the watch will blink the specific geographical area for that time zone. The capabilities of this watch does not end here, It has lot more to offer. We can program 5 daily or one time alarms into this tiny piece. Stopwatch, Counter, 12 or 24 hour time format, Day light saving ON or OFF which simplifies the time setting when the DST switches. We can set it to signal a beep for every hour. There is digitally displayed manual clock at the top right corner which will display your home country time stored in the T1 timezone. When I go on an international trip, I flip the digital display to local time(T2-T4) and will refer the home city time(T1) in the manual clock. The watch is really durable, light weight, stylish, sporty, water proof, 10 years battery life and comes with a detailed instruction for setting up each and every functionality of this watch.What more can I expect for a 15 dollar watch. My impression to buy this watch happened after seeing one my friends wearing it. I bought one for me and 3 more for giving it as gift. My friend lost it twice and bought the same watch 3rd time which proves how much he also likes it. The last thing that I want to say is, I don't like the fancy brands which charge their customers just for the sake of their brand name or fancy packaging and offer noting more than a normal brand offers. I always prefer quality over show off so I picked this Casio watch. I really appreciate that CASIO believed in quality and functionality and not on fancy packaging. I feel really bad that I'm writing this review after 1.5 years of my purchase and I should have done it long back. I highly recommend this watch for everyone and I'm sure you will never be disappointed.

The little watch that tried...and almost succeeded.
Color: Black/Black, Style: AE1000W-1BVCF
The main problem with this watch for me is it tries to do too much and relies heavily on the user. With Day light Savings time not being universal in when it starts, when it ends, and which countries decide to use it, it is a lot of work for some functions Day Light Savings time really hurts this watch and what it tries to do. This Casio watch is priced right and pleasant to look at. It has four main functions\modes. 1 Timekeeping 2 World Time 3 Stop watch 4 Alarm I'll focus on the first 2 as this is where it shines and falls short for me. In TIME KEEPING mode --Works Great You can set 4 different times and tab through them with the bottom right button. This is very useful and quite easy to set up. Upon setting up your local time the next three will be based off that and you only need to set Day Light Savings time on or off accordingly. This is easy to maintain and the world map reflects the time zone you are currently in. In WORLD TIME mode you can quickly tab through over 40 cities around the globe. This is where the watch falls short. You need to set each city depending on their Day Light Savings time. Some cities do not use DST, some start in the middle of March, Some start at end of March, ect.. If you do not mind doing this for each city in WORLD TIME which will require you to look up each of their DST information then this is a nice function. I'm not at all interested in doing this. This is a function an atomic watch would excel at but a manual setting watch it's not worth the effort The rest of the features are more than gimmicks. The world map is functional, especially if you set the DST for each of the cities in WORLD TIME. The analog dial always shows your current time no matter what mode you are in or which of the 4 cities you are on in TIME KEEPING mode.The light is unbalanced but sufficient to light the entire dial. You can change it to 3 seconds from it's factory 1.5 seconds which makes it much more useful. If you want this watch to keep track the current time in four cities it is very easy to set up and works quite well.

Well made, high quality wallet
Size: One Size, Color: Brown
I bought this for my husband for Father's Day. It's a beautiful, well made, quality wallet. The stitching is heavy duty and the leather is very nice. It isn't bulky. A few months of having it and it seems to have broken in well.
