VASPER PROFESSIONAL BASEBALL TESTOSTERONE TRIAL
Testosterone has many performance-enhancing benefits that are well-known in the professional baseball community.
In this short, 8-session 2-week trial, 5 professional baseball players were tested for their saliva testosterone levels. Usually, within such a short time period, increases in Testosterone would not be expected – but this trial demonstrated an average 132% increase in Testosterone.
This suggests Vasper can be used to improve the endogenous, or naturally-produced, testosterone in the body without resorting to dangerous and side-effect ridden steroid solutions.
STANFORD UNIVERSITY ATHLETIC GROWTH HORMONE RESPONSE STUDY – ONGOING
Stanford University Sports Medicine has utilized Vasper with their varsity athletes in a rehabilitation setting, and wished to formalize results with a study of growth-hormone response in Division I college athletes.
Growth Hormone has a significant impact on performance and recovery from injury, and increasing endogenous production in a young, athletic population is notably different than an older population (as tested in the Vasper Hormone trial of men 30-65 years old).
This study will demonstrate the post-workout hormone production that subjects experience in the two hours after a single Vasper session.

Charleston Sports Medicine Osteoarthritis Study – Ongoing
Dr. Bright McConnell, an experienced orthopedic surgeon and sports medicine specialist at Charleston Sports Medicine wished to explore the potential for Vasper to help a large group of his patient population – Osteoarthritis patients.
These patients typically struggle with significant hip and knee pain, which can compound comorbidities and prevent patients from living a high quality of life.
This study focuses on functional tests and validated scores for Osteoarthritis before and after a 6-week intervention, as well as a follow-up testing period at 12-weeks.
