Beta ecdysterone 90%

Beta ecdysterone 90%

Beta-ecdysterone is a naturally occurring steroid compound primarily extracted from plants, including: spinach, quinoa, and cyanotis arachnoidea. This natural plant extract has recently gained popularity, especially for its potential as a supplement in the categories of: performance, muscle building, and fat burners. Although it has long been used in traditional medicine, it has now become highly popular among athletes and fitness enthusiasts due to various potential health and performance benefits.

Beta-ecdysterone is also known as:
Ecdysterone
Cyanotis arachnoidea extract
Ecdysteroids
Beta ecdysone

Our beta ecdysterone is derived from a plant called cyanotis arachnoidea. Since it is a cyanotis arachnoidea extract, there may be some confusion regarding the name. Therefore, it is important to clarify that beta-ecdysterone is the active compound extracted from cyanotis arachnoidea. We use a standardized and potent form of this beneficial substance in our products, meaning that our natural extract contains as much as 90% beta ecdysterone.

Functions of beta ecdysterone

Unfortunately, due to European legislation, we cannot describe all the effects and functions of this product. Not even if these have been confirmed by research. Nevertheless, we do our best to provide you with as much relevant information as possible.

Beta ecdysterone has a range of effects and functions that have made it a popular supplement. This supplement has become particularly popular in the categories of sports performance, fatburners, and muscle building. Studies on beta-ecdysterone have explored various potential effects and confirm that it can have several positive effects [1][2][3]. It is therefore not surprising that this supplement has gained considerable popularity in a short time.

Who can use beta ecdysterone ?

This supplement is mainly used by people interested in improving physical performance and muscle mass. Therefore, it is primarily used by athletes, bodybuilders, and fitness enthusiasts. However, it is also used by athletes participating in other types of sports. Additionally, this extract is also suitable for women, as beta ecdysterone significantly differs from traditional anabolic steroids such as testosterone. It does not promote the production of male androgens like testosterone.

How should I use beta ecdysterone ? / Dosages

Based on current research and knowledge, it is recommended to consume 500mg-750mg daily. This is usually done by taking two doses per day, typically with a meal in the morning and with a meal during the day. It is advised to use beta ecdysterone for 8-12 weeks, followed by a break of 4 weeks. This allows our body to lose any tolerance that may have developed for this product.

Stacking / combining

Beta ecdysterone can be excellently combined with various other supplements. It is frequently combined with: Turkesterone, Ashwagandha, and testosterone boosters. It can also be combined very well with other performance-oriented supplements, such as: creatine, beta-alanine, and citrulline malate.

Where does beta ecdysterone come from ?

Beta-ecdysterone can be extracted from both plants and insects. An important source of beta-ecdysterone is a plant called cyanotis arachnoidea. Our beta-ecdysterone is extracted from the cyanotis arachnoidea plant because it naturally contains high concentrations of beta-ecdysterone. Due to these amounts, cyanotis arachnoidea is an efficient and suitable source for a supplement.

Other information

What are ecdysteroids (ECDY)
Beta-ecdysterone is classified as an ecdysteroid. Ecdysteroids (ECDY) and phytoecdysteroids are natural compounds found primarily in insects and some plants. Due to the potential performance and health benefits, these compounds have attracted the interest of both scientists and athletes. These ecdysteroids are relatively abundant in the exoskeletons and molting hormones of arthropods, such as: insects and crustaceans. Here, ecdysteroids play an essential role in the molting and growth process, regulating both development and reproduction. As a result, ecdysteroids have emerged as effective supplements for athletes seeking performance supplements.

What are phytoecdysteroids
Beta-ecdysterone also falls under a subgroup of ecdysteroids called phytoecdysteroids. Phytoecdysteroids are a group of ecdysteroids mainly found in specific plants. These compounds are produced by plants as a defense mechanism against herbivores and other threats. The most well-known plant source of phytoecdysteroids is spinach (Spinacia oleracea). Phytoecdysteroids have also recently become popular as dietary supplements due to their effects. However, the effectiveness can vary significantly depending on the chosen compounds and formulation of each product.

Studies
Studies have produced anecdotal evidence and research findings that suggest possible benefits. However, it is important to emphasize that its effectiveness has not yet been definitively established through rigorous, large-scale clinical trials.

Beta ecdysterone vs testosterone
Phytoecdysteroids have molecular similarities to testosterone. This may explain the effects of these supplements. However, Beta-ecdysterone and testosterone are fundamentally different compounds. Beta-ecdysterone is a natural phytoecdysteroid compound primarily found in plants. Testosterone, on the other hand, is classified as a hormone.

Turkesterone vs beta ecdysterone
Turkesterone and beta ecdysterone are very similar. This is because they are both ecdysteroids. In terms of molecular structure, both are also very similar. The only difference is the addition of a hydroxide compound in turkesterone.

Safety & competitive use

Safety
Based on both anecdotal evidence and current research, beta ecdysterone appears to be safe for healthy adults when used correctly.

Competitive use
Currently, the use of this supplement is allowed for elite athletes. However, this may change in the future due to the benefits it offers [1][2].

Correct use
A dietary supplement can contribute to a healthy and active lifestyle. However, it should not be a substitute for a healthy lifestyle and a varied diet. The recommended dosage should not be exceeded, since side effects may occur otherwise. If side effects occur, consumption should be discontinued.

As with any supplement, we advise users to consult a physician before use. In particular if you use medication or have health complaints. Do not use when you have kidney or liver problems. This product should not be used by women who are pregnant or breastfeeding. Furthermore, this product should not be used by persons under 18 years of age and must be kept out of the reach of children. Keep this product in a cool and dry place to maintain the quality.
