Beta-Ecdysterone is a naturally occurring phytochemical found in herbs or roots such as Cyanotis Vaga. Recent studies have suggested that when consumed alongside a structured weight routine, Beta-Ecdysterone can help improve lean mass without the addition of body fat. Beta-Ecdysterone has been shown to stimulate protein metabolism and promote growth whilst reducing tissue breakdown. When the muscle is provided with more protein, it is more likely to grow in size and increase in strength. This process is called protein synthesis and Beta-Ecdysterone is believed to promote this process. Various studies also showed Beta-Ecdysterone to be far more effective when combined with a weight training programme and a high protein diet. Results of this combination showed faster gains in size and a reduced recovery time between exercise sessions. Beta-Ecdysterone has no reported side effects and has also been shown to help lower body fat levels.
