 Posted: Thu Nov 20, 2008 1:00 pm Post subject: Are Epistane caps supposed to have little brown dots? |
 |
I just started my 4 week Epistane cutting cycle and noticed for the 1st time that the capsules had little brown dots. My last cycle was OVER 1 year ago and I purchased 2 bottles of Epi back than, but ONLY used 1 bottle. The other bottle has been sitting on my shelf for OVER 1 year unopened and in cool temperature.
Last time I ONLY noticed that the powder inside the capsules was white, but I didn’t notice any little brown spots.
Do you guys think the capsules have gone bad?
Can I still take them the way they are?
Or do they normally look like that (clear capsules with white powder inside and little brown spots)?
Sorry to ask this, but I’m really NOT sure if my caps have gone bad or not. They smell fine. I read a while that some bottles might smell like rotten eggs and they don’t. Any help you guys can offer would be greatly appreciated. |

Thanks Nowler!
I went home for lunch and opened one of the E-Max bottles I bought a few weeks ago and the powder is white as you mentioned. I think because my bottle is close to 18 MONTHS old, it may have gone bad. I will toss it and just use the E-Max instead. I bought the E-Max on sale and it was only $20 per bottle. Better safe than sorry bros. |

They are fine according to some guy from BB.com. He said an IBE rep stated 2 years ago that the caps are supposed to look like that. Glad I ONLY set the bottle aside and didn't toss it. He said the bottle he used a while back had brown dots like mine and it worked fine. |

The guy from BB.com said the bottle I bought close to 2 YEARS ago, has a slightly different formulation, than the CURRENT bottles of Epi or clones. I'm sure your bottle won't have the brown dots either. Thanks for checking anyway though. |
