Beta Ecdysterone/ Beta Ecdisterone, 500 mg, 120 Double Wood capsules

Beta ecdysterone is a naturally occurring organic compound found in some plants and animals that has gained popularity in recent years as a means of maintaining male hormone levels and aiding recovery from exercise. The substance is relatively new, but scientific research to date suggests that it has some impressive benefits.


Description and main properties of beta ecdysterone
20-hydroxyecdysone, also called beta ecdysterone and 20E, is a type of ecdysteroid hormone that supports molting and metamorphosis in arthropods – arachnids, crustaceans, millipedes, etc. The compound is also a phytosteroid that a number of plants such as Cyanotis vaga, Ajuga turkestanica, and Rhaponticum carthamoides produce to counteract the development and reproduction of harmful insects.

In lower animals, beta ecdysterone plays an important role in morphogenesis, a process involved in building tissues and shaping the body. It turns out that humans also possess ecdysteroid receptors, which when activated provide a variety of beneficial effects, including muscle growth.

Beta ecdysterone exhibits anabolic properties without significantly affecting the hormonal activity of the body. Scientific studies have shown that the phytosteroid does not bind to androgen receptor alpha (ARα), but to estrogen receptor beta (ERβ), and it is in this way that it causes muscle hypertrophy, or in other words, an increase in muscle mass. Although it may seem strange that bodybuilding relies on a receptor for the “female” hormone estrogen, in this particular case it is ERβ that plays an important role in the growth of skeletal muscle.


Benefits of taking beta ecdysterone

Helps build muscle - Beta ecdysterone has been shown to support protein synthesis, meaning it can facilitate the build-up of muscle mass with regular training. Scientific studies show that it has a high “anabolic coefficient,” meaning it can help:

→ building muscle cells;
→ the synthesis of proteins from amino acids;
→ production of red blood cells;
→ bone growth.
Beta ecdysterone promotes muscle protein synthesis by stimulating the PI3K Akt signaling pathway.

Helps increase efficiency in physical activities – Ecdysteroids are popular with athletes and bodybuilders because, in addition to facilitating muscle mass gain, they reduce fatigue and aid recovery. Beta ecdysterone is believed to have contributed to the achievements of Russian Olympians in recent years, which has raised the question of its inclusion on the list of substances prohibited for use by athletes.

May improve insulin sensitivity – Beta ecdysterone has been found to support metabolic health by counteracting insulin resistance, hyperglycemia (high blood sugar levels associated with type 2 diabetes), and obesity.

Supports immune function – It turns out that beta ecdysterone has adaptogenic properties that help the body cope with stress and pathogens.Phytosteroid supports homeostasis and immune function by:

→ increases the number of red blood cells;
→ improves sleep quality;
→ increases tolerance to heat stress;
→ supports heart activity and blood circulation;
→ stimulates bone growth;
→ counteracts free radicals and inflammatory processes.


Research into the beneficial properties of the substance is ongoing, but there is already evidence that it can aid in osteoporosis therapy, support kidney function, and help improve heart and lung function.
