Botanabol®

Botanabol® is Natura’s strongest anabolic support formula. The word “anabolic” refers to processes in the body that build complex materials from simpler substances. This activity includes protein synthesis and the creation of storage forms of nutrients to be utilized for energy. Botanabol® features a concentrated herbal extract of Russian Leuzea standardized to 5% ecdysteroids. When combined with a proper diet and essential amino acids, these compounds optimize energy levels, encourage lean muscle growth, reduce muscle fatigue and support healthy levels of anabolic hormones.*

Leuzea
Russian athletes use ecdisteroids to optimize their performance. These naturally occurring compounds of Leuzea (Rhaponticum carthamoides) offer a wide spectrum of anabolic support. Leuzea enhances stress resistance, optimizes energy levels and supports normal function of the cardiovascular and the central nervous systems. This concentrated extract supports strength and endurance in physical activity and healthy recovery from muscle fatigue.*

Ajuga
This powerful herb, used by Russian athletes to enhance their training regimen, helps improve resistance to stress and supports healthy body weight, muscle mass and muscle-to-fat ratio. The ecdisteroids in Ajuga encourage healthy anabolic metabolism, protein synthesis and skeletal strength.*

Shilajit
Used for thousands of years in European folk medicine, Shilajit (also known as Mumie) is an adaptogen and rejuvenative herb. It was traditionally used to support the healthy function of the immune, nerve, and excretory systems and to help maintain bone growth. Over the last century, it has been studied in Russia where it is known for its anabolic activity and tonic effects.*

ActiCissus®
Cissus is an ancient medicinal plant native to Ceylon, India and Africa. ActiCissus® is a standardized extract of Cissus that supports bone health and strength. In classical Ayurvedic medicine, Cissus was used to support healthy bones, ligaments and tendons. Along with Vitamins C and A, Cissus contains ketosterones which enhance healthy anabolic metabolism.*

Cordyceps
Cordyceps, highly revered in Chinese medicine, is traditionally used to support deep energy reserves, endurance and physical vitality. For these reasons, Chinese athletes in modern times have used Cordyceps to optimize their performance.*

Panax ginseng
This renowned, traditional herb works together with the adaptogenic herbs in Botanabol® to help the body adapt to stresses of various kinds. Numerous clinical studies document the efficacy of this herbal extract in improving the body’s ability to withstand stress while increasing metabolic efficiency and restoring a healthy level of energy.*

What is the difference between anabolic and catabolic? 

Q. Is Botanabol appropriate for women to take? I don’t want to get big muscles.

A. Yes!  Botanabol is designed to encourage healthy anabolic metabolism, which is essential for wellness and longevity, in both men and women. While this does include the building of lean muscle, one would have to combine it with the appropriate weight training program, diet, and dosing regimen to produce dramatic muscle growth.
