5-Alpha-Hydroxy-Laxogenin – Powder, 5g

 

5-Alpha-Hydroxy-Laxogenin is a member of a group of 40 plant-derived compounds, known as brassinosteroids, which may help support muscle production, enhance physical performance, and support quick recovery.*

5-Alpha-Hydroxy-Laxogenin is a member of a group of 40 plant-derived compounds, known as brassinosteroids, which have a similar structure to animal steroid hormones. They attach only to the cell surface, which sets off a signal to increase muscle production inside of the cell, and activate a protein, known as AKT1 or protein kinase B, that prevents the breakdown of muscle. Supplementing 5-Alpha-Hydroxy-Laxogenin may, therefore, help support muscle production, thermogenesis, enhance physical performance, and support quick recovery from exercise when used in conjunction with a healthy diet and exercise program

Description

What is 5-Alpha-Hydroxy-Laxogenin?

5a-hydroxy 5-Alpha-Hydroxy-Laxogenin, is a naturally occurring plant based steroidal sapogenin found in Smilax Sieboldii – a plant related to asparagus that is native to China and Japan. 5-Alpha-Hydroxy-Laxogenin is a member of a group of 40 plant-derived compounds, known as brassinosteroids, which have a similar structure to animal steroid hormones. Plant steroids act through a completely different pathway than human steroid hormones. They attach to the cell surface in animals, which sets off a signal inside of the cell and activates a protein, known as AKT1 or protein kinase B, that enhances cellular metabolism and reduces muscle breakdown. Supplementing 5-Alpha-Hydroxy-Laxogenin may, therefore, help support muscle building, thermogenesis, enhance physical performance, and support quick recovery from exercise when used in conjunction with a healthy diet and exercise program.
