Spinach has many health benefits, including preventing asthma, lowering blood pressure, and helping diabetics manage their condition. Nowadays the new study focuses on another active ingredient extract from spinach, ベータエクジステロン.

2. Beta ecdysterone from nature

Ecdysterone (β-ecdysone) is a hormone that regulates insect growth and metabolism. It was first studied by entomologists. で 1954, scholars isolated 250mg of ecdysone from 500kg silkworm pupae, which is the active substance for molting. Since then, many types of plants have developed a variety of similar substances. The distribution of ecdysone in the plant kingdom is higher than that in the animal kingdom. In plants, Ecdysterone has a wide distribution range and abundant resources.

Current research shows that beta ecdysterone exists in cyanotis vaga/cyanotis arachnoidea, spinach, mulberry leaves, and Chinese ferns such as Achyranthes bidentata, Prunella vulgaris, Alisma, Podocarpus, and yew, 等.

3. Muscle strength of beta Ecdysterone in Spinach

Experiments show that ecdysterone has muscle cell-enhancing effects and is even more powerful than anabolic steroids. This generates great interest in research on plants containing ecdysterone, including spinach as a dietary supplement vegetable.

A recent study in Germany found that the chemical substance beta ecdysterone in spinach has a similar effect to steroids, which can increase muscle strength and therefore enhance sports performance:

Researchers from a university in Germany recruited 46 athletes to participate in a 10-week physical training, and hope to see how this substance works. They divided the athletes into two groups: One group of athletes took pills made of spinach extract, this extract pill was equal to eating 4 kilograms of spinach per day. The other group was given a placebo. After several weeks, the athletes who served spinach extract ecdysterone got a higher muscle mass and had better performance. They increased physical strength by three times more than athletes in the control group.

4. 結論

Researchers said if want to achieve the same effect by eating spinach only, you need to eat 1 に 16 kilograms of spinach every day last for several weeks.
