Turkesterone

Turkesterone (ajuga turkestanica) is a harvested from the Rhaponticum cathamoides or Leuzea plant - thistle-like plants grown in Southern Siberia, Kazakhstan, Bulgaria and Central Asia annually.

Highly concentrated in 20-E - 20-hydroxyecdysone - turkesterone is an 11alpha-hydroxyl group phytoecdysteroid that is the most biologically active of the known ecdysteroids. It is considered a strong adaptogenic herb.

As an ecdysteroid, turkesterone has shown an ability to exert mild anabolic effects, with animal trials showing an increase in protein synthesis in mice when dosed at 5mg per 1kg of bodyweight. The ability of turkesterone to elicit anabolic effects and ability to increase protein synthesis in animals has been known since the early 1960's.
