Turk Builder + Is Here!

That's right! After years of searching the globe for real, authentic Turkesterone, we discovered it in the mountains of Uzbekistan. We were able to create an extract that delivers real, authentic Turkesterone at 15mg per capsule and genuine 20HE at the same strength.  Additional ecdysterones are standardized to 6mg per capsules as well.  All of this with the goal of giving YOU the #1 most effective Ecdysterone product available on the market.

Take one capsule to assess tolerance. Take 1-3 capsules 30 minutes before exercise on training days. Take 1-2 capsules in the morning on non training days. Do not exceed 3 capsules in one day. May affect sleep in some individuals when taken too close to bedtime, it is recommended not to take after 4pm.

Turkesterone & 20-Hydroxyecdysone (20-HE)

Turkesterone and Ecdysteroids are structurally different from anabolic steroids and therefore work differently, ecdysteroids do not suppress natural sex hormone production and have not been shown to be toxic, they are found in very small percentages in foods like spinach and quinoa.

Seeing as the safety profile of 20HE is one of the best amongst its class of oral anabolic agents, we are proud to be early adopters of this re-emerging nutraceutical (Ecdysteroid Extracts have been used throughout time in Central Asia amongst the Turkic people).*

Capsorb (Sodium Caprate)

Sodium caprate, a medium chain fatty acid, is a well-recognized absorption enhancer. It increases the paracellular permeability through enlarging the tight junctions, thereby expanding paracellular routes for water-soluble, hydrophilic, and poorly absorbable drugs.*

Black Pepper Fruit Extract

Black pepper is used to enhance bioavailability in supplements.  There is no direct research that Black Pepper Extract directly helps the absorption of Ecdysterones, but it has been shown to increase absorption of vitamins and other nutrients.

Piperine is a component of black pepper extract which is an established bioenhancer of many different nutraceuticals, it works by enhancing intestinal absorption of many poorly absorbed compounds and slowing the rate at which certain compounds are broken down by the liver; leading to increased serum concentrations and a greater AUC (area under the curve) of a compound.*
