What is Beta-Ecdysterone?

Beta ecdysterone , according to wikipedia, also known as ecdisten, ecdysone, isoinokosterone and 20-hydroxyecdysone,  is what is known as a "plant sterol" : a compound found in plants that is structurally similar to anabolic human steroids such as testosterone.  However, beta ecdysterone is a plant sterol; NOT a steroid.

It was first discovered in insects and it was found that they depended upon it for survival. Speculation then arose as to whether the presence of beta ecdysterone in insects played a role in their remarkable body size to strength ratio.

Scientists discovered that ecdysterone could be found occurring naturally in certain herbs (rhaponticum/leuzeae and cyanotis vaga) and eventually developed methods to create high potency extractions.

How does Beta-Ecdysterone work?

Beta Ecdysterone stimulates protein metabolism. Higher levels of protein metabolism will lead to a positive nitrogen balance in your body. Like an air balloon expanding, your muscles will grow. The balloon will not expand without air the same as your muscles won’t grow without protein synthesis. Beta Ecdysterone dramatically increases the synthesis, leaning to significant muscle gain and straight increase.

Benefits of Beta Ecdysterone extract supplement

Beta-ecdysterone also often marketed as a natural alternative to steroids with claims that it's a powerful growth promoter with no negative hormonal consequences. Beta-ecdysterone is used widely by body builders with hopes to build muscle or lean body tissues. The key benefits of Beta-ecdysterone are summarized as below:

1. build lean body mass

 Beta-ecdysterone promotes protein synthesis, which enhances lean body mass when accompanied by resistance training, but the evidence is lacking and inconsistent. Its purpose is to stimulate cellular and muscle recovery so if this actually is true, combining this supplement with high biological value proteins, like animal protein—milk, chicken, eggs, fish—will improve results.

2. Help fat burning

Beta-ecdysterone works by blocking alpha adrenoreceptors. There are a number of feedback mechanisms that prevent the release of norepinephrine (NE), one of the body's primary lipolytic hormones. When NE is released, such as in periods of stress or after taking a sympathomimetic (such as ephedrine), it stimulates both the alpha and beta adrenoreceptors. Stimulation of the beta adrenoreceptors causes the breakdown of fat while stimulating the alpha adrenoreceptors has the opposite effect, preventing the release of NE and lipolysis. Beta-ecdysterone prevents this negative feedback mechanism, thus increasing NErelease and lipolysis.

3. help treat osteoporosis

 Chinese researchers found that beta-ecdysterone treatment alleviated osteoporosis symptoms in mice without any obvious side effects.  Experts concluded that beta-ecdysterone may be a promising candidate drug for the treatment of osteoporosis but more testing is necessary before it can be approved for human treatment.

4. help lower blood glucose levels

In a recent study beta-ecdysterone was found to help lower blood glucose levels—in patients in the normal to moderate blood glucose range—without altering insulin levels. Therefore, it could be of benefit in the treatment of type-II diabetes, and may aid weight loss.

Doasge of Beta-ecdysterone supplement

Studies have shown that supplementation with beta-ecdysterone is safe at dosages of 5 milligrams per kilogram of bodyweight. However, most nutritional companies use significantly lower dosages—about 50-90 mg total. And so many say that athletes would need a much larger dosage than what's included in most nutritional formulas in order to see and muscle growth-related benefits.
