Blackstone Labs Brutal 4ce assaults your muscles with three highly effective forms of 4-DHEA (4-Androstene-3β-ol,17-one) totaling 65mg per tablet — the unesterified compound for immediate availability, plus Undecanoate and Caprylate esters for sustained, layered release throughout the day. 4-DHEA undergoes a two-step conversion beginning with androstenediol and ultimately ending as testosterone — the ultimate anabolic hormone for building size and strength. A common problem of 4-DHEA products of the past was poor bioavailability, requiring tremendous amounts of compound just to achieve minimal effectiveness and increasing side-effect risk. Brutal 4ce uses Liposomal delivery technology to create a 4-DHEA supplement that's 99% bioavailable, making it dramatically more efficient than the prohormones of yesteryear. Non-methylated — not liver toxic. Take 1 tablet twice daily (130mg total daily). Do not exceed 2 tablets in any 24-hour period. Cycle for 4-8 weeks, followed by PCT. Because this is a testosterone-pathway compound, some estrogen-related side effects (gyno, water retention) are possible — an estrogen-blocking supplement alongside your cycle is recommended. Not for women.†

Three Forms, Layered Release — Why the Blend Design Matters
4-DHEA is a hydrophobic (fat-soluble) molecule, making it inherently difficult to get into the blood, which is hydrophilic (water-soluble) — this fundamental solubility mismatch is why older 4-DHEA products required large doses just to achieve modest effects. Brutal 4ce addresses this two ways: first, by combining the unesterified 4-DHEA with Undecanoate and Caprylate esters, which control the molecule's release rate to eliminate the need for manual, frequently-timed dosing throughout the day — the free form provides immediate availability, while the esters extend activity into the later hours, providing prolonged elevated levels with multiple peaks of effectiveness. Second, by using Liposomal delivery technology to solve the underlying fat-soluble-to-water-soluble absorption problem directly, achieving 99% bioavailability during the two-step conversion process to testosterone.†
4-DHEA's Two-Step Path to Testosterone
4-DHEA (4-Androstene-3β-ol,17-one) is a two-step precursor that ultimately converts to testosterone — first converting to androstenediol, then to androstenedione, and finally to testosterone itself. Testosterone is both anabolic (muscle-building) and androgenic (increased male sexual characteristics) — you can expect a serious amount of muscle and strength gains from this compound, positioned specifically for serious athletes and bodybuilders looking to pack on a large amount of mass in a short time frame.†
Liposomal Delivery — Solving 4-DHEA's Historic Bioavailability Problem
Liposomal technology has been used in the medical field for decades, but only recently made its way into nutritional supplements. It was specifically employed here because of the low absorption and bioavailability rates of older dietary tablets and capsules containing hydrophobic compounds like 4-DHEA. By encapsulating the 4-DHEA blend in a liposomal delivery system, Brutal 4ce achieves the 99% bioavailability rate that separates it from prohormones of ten or fifteen years ago — meaning more of what's on the label actually reaches your bloodstream and does the work it's supposed to do.†
Wet Gains — Estrogen Considerations With a 4-Andro Compound
Unlike DHT-derivative compounds (like Chosen1's 1-DHEA) that cannot aromatize to estrogen, Brutal 4ce's testosterone-pathway conversion means some estrogen-related side effects — gyno and water retention among them — are possible. If you are looking for wet mass gains specifically, this is by design and not necessarily a downside; for many bulking-phase users, the modest water retention that comes with testosterone-pathway aromatization is part of the size and fullness Brutal 4ce is meant to deliver. Stacking an estrogen-blocking supplement (like Blackstone Labs Eradicate or Hi-Tech Arimistane) alongside the cycle is recommended for those who want to manage or minimize this effect.†
Frequently Asked Questions
Can Brutal 4ce be stacked with Sustanon 250 or Chosen1?
Stacking with Sustanon 250 is not recommended — both deliver concentrated 4-Andro prohormones, and combining them doubles your intake, sharply raising the risk of estrogen conversion, water retention, and blood pressure spikes. Choose one 4-Andro source per cycle. Brutal 4ce is commonly stacked with Chosen1 as part of Blackstone's "Fire & Ice" combination for a mixed testosterone-pathway and DHT-pathway approach — though running Chosen1, Primobolan, and Brutal 4ce together simultaneously overloads the system with multiple hormonal precursors and is not recommended.†
Do I need PCT after Brutal 4ce?
Yes. Post-cycle therapy will help your body bring its hormones back to normal levels after finishing the cycle. Start the day after your Brutal 4ce cycle ends and take PCT for 4 weeks — without it, testosterone normalization takes much longer and you may lose some of your gains.†
Is Brutal 4ce liver toxic?
No — it's non-methylated, meaning it will not affect the liver the way older methylated prohormones did. On-cycle support (Gear Support) is still recommended to help manage cholesterol, blood pressure, prostate health, and inflammation during the cycle.†
Can women take Brutal 4ce?
No — women should not take this product due to the hormonal changes that may occur.†
How to Take Blackstone Labs Brutal 4ce
Take 1 tablet in the morning and 1 tablet in the evening. Do not exceed 2 tablets in any 24-hour period. Cycle for 4-8 weeks, using an on-cycle support supplement (Gear Support) for the full duration. Begin PCT (PCT V or comparable) the day after finishing your Brutal 4ce cycle, and continue for 4 weeks. Consider stacking with an estrogen-blocking supplement to manage potential gyno and water retention. Not for women. Store in a cool, dry place, away from light. Consult a physician before use if taking any prescription medications or having any medical condition. California Prop 65 Warning applies.†
