Ecdysterone,Found inSpinach, Has Steroid-Like Effects
Popeye was on to something. German scientists say that ecdysterone, which is found plentifully in spinach
and quinoa, has powerful effects in helping to build and maintain muscle tissue and strength—so much so
that the researchers think it may be a candidate for the banned doping list.
In a study published in The FASEB Journal, scientists found that ecdysterone had powerful effects as a beta
estrogen receptor. According to the researchers: “Our data clearly confirm that ecdysterone is a compound with
strong anabolic activity in vivo and in vitro, and that estradiol receptorbeta seems to be involved at least
in vitro….” The scientists went on to speculate that ecdysterone could be useful for aging men and women
looking to retain muscle mass.
