NATURE'S MUSCLE-BUILDING GIFT: ECDYSTERONE
Breakthrough plateaus and hit new PRs safely and naturally without ugly side effects. Ecdysterone extract promotes muscle-building effects that are a result of its estrogen receptor binding to potentially increase protein synthesis in skeletal muscles.
The 95% Ecdysterone extract with hydroxypropyl-beta-cyclodextrin complex used in our formula is the highest bioavailable form of the compound in the world. Know you are receiving the highest grade Ecdysterone supplement possible with our maximum purity 95% extract with 3rd-party certificate of analysis below available for review.
A Muscle-Building Hormone from Plants and Arthropods
Ecdysterone Benefits
Research suggests its ability to promote muscle-building activity in skeletal muscle, as well as increase cell proliferation and growth, which can lead to an increase in muscle mass.
Ecdysterone belongs to a family of compounds known as ecdysteroids that are found in plants, arthropods, and certain fungi that regulate molting (the skin-shedding metamorphosis in crabs, centipedes, scorpions, etc). For something that serves as an arthropod molting hormone necessary for the demanding processes of metamorphosis and with structural similarities to human muscle-building hormones, it's easy to see why Ecdysterone is of great interest to sports scientists, strength athletes, and bodybuilders. In humans, Ecdysterone is believed to lead to an increase in muscle mass by enhancing the muscles’ leucine intake and optimizing the mRNA translation process for increased protein synthesis.
Arthropods, such as insects, spiders, centipedes, and crabs rely on ecdysterone to bring about the molting process, or metamorphosis from one development stage to another. (Talk about GAINS!)
Does it have side effects?
And with no known negative side effects in humans, we can now benefit from several benefits observed in scientific studies, including muscle-building, anti-diabetic, and immune-stimulating changes.
Although Ecdysterone is sought out for its muscle-building properties, it is important to note that it does not have androgenic properties, and thus does NOT disrupt human hormones like other synthetic muscle-building agents.
Is Ecdysterone legal?
Ecdysterone and Turkesterone are both naturally occurring hormones and are currently allowed in all forms. However due to their ability to increase athletic performance, historically ingredients like this do find their way to the list of prohibited substances.
Ecdysterone vs Turkesterone
You may respond to one better than the other, or both taken together. Turkesterone and Ecdysterone have similarities and differences.
- They are both ecdysteroids
- Both show promising benefits in animal trials
- Ecdysterone has a published human trial
- Turkesterone is an analog of ecdysterone and may be slightly more muscle-building
- Neither are androgenic and do not disrupt human hormone levels
- They both have similar benefits
- Neither has shown significant toxicity side effects
