Ecdysterone: Non essential supplements- Part 4

Ecdysterone is a plant/insect steroid. It is often packaged with methoxy with similar reported anabolic effects.
There has been some research showing this has positive effects in animals, but most of these studies were done by Soviet scientists under the strict authority of a communist regime. Since these studies have not been carried out recently, it is hard to determine whether or not ecdysterone is beneficial or not. Again, for those wanting to use it, it can be purchased in bulk powder form and supplemented in 1-2g daily. This is not recommended or necessary for anyone, beginners included and is commonly known to be a scam supplement.
