For those of you taking ND’s beta-ecdysterone:

- Have you noticed any tangible improvements to health markers? I.e., strength adaptions, rate of hypertrophy, recovery, or changes to bloodwork.
- Do you combine doses with other supplements or specific foods?
- Pre or post workout?
- Anyone experienced sides or cognitive effects?
Personally, I have been supplementing post workout with Schisandra and meal high in protein.
It’s too early to ascertain any impact it is or is not having as have only been supplementing a week, although I am aware numerous members of the community have been using ecdysterone for sometime now and would be interested to hear reports.

This has been what I’ve observed on 250 mg twice a day too: DOMS have disappeared for me and I feel recovered much quicker, which is quite nice.

I honestly think this is the primary effect we are seeing. DOMS completely disappearing when using it. With what we know about activation of the Mas receptor, and how that affects pro-inflammatory signaling cascades, it makes sense. I don't think this is going to put on 10lbs of muscle like some people are expecting, but it seems to be very useful for preventing post-workout muscle soreness. If this allows you to get more workout sessions in, that would be the how you could see increased gains over time.
