Beta Ecdysterone has fairly extensive research that has been published and so far, shows exceptional benefits. 

The PI3K pathway was stimulated by Beta Ecdysterone, resulting in a 20% increase in protein synthesis.  It is actually a powerful compound for converting protein and increasing protein synthesis in the body, which leads to the growth of muscle mass and strength. According to another study, participants gained nearly 2 kilograms of lean muscle mass after 10 weeks of Beta Ecdysterone use combined with resistance training. ⁺
