Beta-Ecdysterone Capsules (99% Purity) – Product Information

Beta-Ecdysterone, also known as ecdysterone, is a naturally occurring compound found to potentially improve physical performance. Recent research suggests that the anabolic impact of ecdysterone is mediated by estrogen receptor (ER) binding. In a recent rat study, ecdysterone showed to be even more effective than illegal anabolic substances (such as Ametandienone and others). Human studies in science, however, are incredibly uncommon.

What is Ecdysterone?

Ecdysterone, also known as 20-hydroxyecdysone, is a rare and potent substance that is found in nature. Given that it resembles the structure of the human hormone testosterone almost exactly, it is also known as a plant steroid. As mentioned above, research suggests that the anabolic impact of ecdysterone is mediated by estrogen receptor (ER) binding.

How does Beta-Ecdysterone Work?

It has been shown that ecdysterone increases skeletal muscle protein synthesis. Gorelick et al. suggested that this elevated protein synthesis was caused by direct or indirect activation of the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway. [R]

Beta-Ecdysterone Research

Ecdysterone has been extensively studied in vivo studies that have noted increased anabolism in a wide variety of animals. Below follows some of the relevant findings:

Increase Protein Synthesis

A recent study investigating the effects of phytoecdysteroids showed a potential increase in 20% protein synthesis. They also showed in this study that it increased rat grip strength, implying that ecdysteroids could potentially help with strength.

This protein synthesis is created by stimulation of the PI3K pathway. Protein synthesis is extremely important in the muscle-building process. Having a higher protein synthesis can lead to faster muscle recovery and muscle mass.

This 10-week study was performed on young men who consumed Ecdysterone daily, this resulted in potentially significant lean muscle mass and strength increases, without adverse effects. [R]

Muscle Strength

A recent study investigated the potential performance-enhancing effects of ecdysterone on strength. This study utilized 46 participants being administered an ecdysterone supplement or placebo for a period of 10 weeks. The group who took the ecdysteroids showed potentially a pronounced increase in 1 rep bench press without any adverse effects. The group also increased their squat by 19,4%, from 100kg to 120kg [R].

Additionally, the group upped their squat by 19,4%, moving from 100 to 120 pounds.

Rats’ enormous gain in grip strength was previously demonstrated by another above-mentioned study.

Anabolic Effect and Potential to Promote Muscle Growth

Ecdysterone has a greater anabolic effect than SARMs, Dianabol, and Dienedione, according to a study on the anabolic potency of the hormone. Given that each of those substances has shown to be really helpful for muscle growth or muscle hypertrophy and increasing lean muscle mass, this is pretty absurd.

A 1988 study comparing the effects of Dianabol and Ecdysteroids on physical endurance revealed that Ecdysterone has a more noticeable effect. [R]

Summary

Beta-Ecdysterone has a strong anabolic potential, and several studies have even found that it may have the potential to boost human muscular mass and strength. This natural anabolic agent is being studied for its potential to improve athletic performance and shows exceptional benefits. More human experiments, though, are required to support these findings and evaluate Beta-Ecdysterone as a potential dietary supplement.
