"Thanks for your e-mail, as a counter point I have included some ecdysone studies done on humans.
All the best,
Paul
A study(1) was carried out on 78 highly trained athletes to asses the effects of ecdysterone on muscle mass and fat mass. The athletes were split into 3 groups, one placebo group, one protein only and one protein + ecdysone. Amazingly after only 10 days the group consuming protein + ecdysone increased lean mass by 6-7% and reduced body fat by 10%.
Yet another study(2) performed on 112 athletes revealed that 89% of those receiving ecdysone reported improved performance, greater strength and less fatigue all in only 5 days. No reported side effects were noted.
A third study(3) was carried out on 117 highly qualified speed skaters aged 18-28, tests for work capacity, body weight, lung capacity, and VO2 max were measured. Results from the data showed an increase in all the above parameters. Also, a tendancy toward an increase in the exhalation of CO2 and O2 pulse max was seen. "
