One formula. Seven phytosteroids. Zero banned substances.
Patented Testofen®
195% NRV zinc
90 Vcaps® – 30 days
Not on the WADA Prohibited List
Which athlete are you?
Ecdy-Bol was designed in 2011 for the athletes SCN™ has always served first – endurance athletes who need to get stronger without getting heavier. It has since become the go-to natural testosterone booster for strength athletes and for men over 40 who want to protect their drive, their muscle and their edge.
Endurance athletes
Build power you can carry up the climb.
Cyclists, runners, triathletes and rowers lose muscle and testosterone under high training loads. Ecdy-Bol supports lean mass, protein synthesis and recovery between sessions – without water retention, without a single gram of unwanted bodyweight, and without any substance on the WADA Prohibited List.
Strength & power athletes
More weight on the bar. More reps in the tank.
Ecdysterone is the plant anabolic that made German researchers call for a WADA review after their trained subjects added significantly more bench-press strength and muscle mass than placebo in 10 weeks. Ecdy-Bol gives you the strongest extract on the market – 20:1 Rhaponticum carthamoides – plus Testofen® for free testosterone.
Men 40+ – vitality & wellbeing
Keep your testosterone, libido and muscle where they belong.
Testofen® was studied in healthy men aged 43–70 and significantly increased both free and total testosterone while improving sexual function. Combined with zinc – which contributes to normal testosterone levels and normal fertility – Ecdy-Bol is the natural way to support male vitality as the years add up.
Why Ecdy-Bol is a different class of natural testosterone booster
- ✔Real dose, not a sprinkle. 135 mg of ecdysterones per day. Most “ecdysterone” tablets deliver 5–6 mg per tab – you would need more than 20 of them to match three Ecdy-Bol capsules.
- ✔The right plant. We use Rhaponticum carthamoides root extract 20:1 standardised to 90% ecdysteroids – never spinach extract, never Cyanotis vaga, never whole powdered seed or plant.
- ✔Seven phytosteroids, not one. 20-hydroxyecdysone plus makisterone C, carthamosterone, polypodine B, ajugasterone C, 24-dehydromakisterone A and the Fenuside™ saponins of Testofen® – working synergistically.
- ✔Two mechanisms. Ecdysterone drives protein synthesis in the muscle cell. Testofen® and zinc support your body’s own free testosterone. Anabolic signal plus hormonal support – in one capsule.
- ✔Patented, clinically studied ingredient. Testofen® (Gencor) has been tested in three randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled human trials – not borrowed data from generic fenugreek.
- ✔100% natural. Nothing prohibited. No prohormones, no SARMs, no synthetic hormones. Ecdysterone sits on WADA’s Monitoring Program – it is not a prohibited substance.
- ✔Pharmaceutical-standard production. Manufactured in a Bureau Veritas ISO 9001-certified facility, like every SCN™ product.
- ✔Built by SCN™ for high-level athletes since 2011. Designed from the real needs of the endurance and strength athletes we work with – not from a marketing brief.
Seven plant steroids in one capsule
フィトステロイド (plant steroids, phytoecdysteroids) are naturally occurring steroid-like molecules that plants produce to defend themselves against insects. They are structurally unrelated to anabolic-androgenic steroids, they do not bind the androgen receptor, and they are not hormones in the human body – yet in muscle cells they trigger a powerful increase in protein synthesis. Ecdy-Bol’s two herbal extracts provide seven of them, working together:
マキステロンC
カルタモステロン
Polypodine B
アジュガステロンC
24-デヒドロマキステロンA
Fenuside™ saponins (Testofen®)
Inside every 3 capsules – the full ingredient breakdown
Every active, every dose, every reason. Nothing hidden.
1. Rhaponticum carthamoides 90% dry extract (root, 20:1)
150 mg → 135 mg ecdysterones
カルタモイデス (maral root, leuzea) is a perennial from the Altai and Siberian mountains and the richest known natural source of 20-hydroxyecdysone. It was the plant behind the ecdysterone research programmes of the former Soviet sports institutes – the original “Russian secret”. Ecdy-Bol uses a 20:1 root extract standardised to 90% ecdysteroids, the most concentrated grade available, delivering 135 mg of ecdysterones per daily dose alongside five supporting phytosteroids: makisterone C, carthamosterone, polypodine B, ajugasterone C and 24-dehydromakisterone A.
What it does: ecdysterone increases protein synthesis in skeletal muscle cells – in vitro, the effect was comparable to that of IGF-1 and was blocked by estrogen-receptor antagonists, pointing to a mechanism via estrogen receptor beta (ERβ), not the androgen receptor. In the only controlled human strength-training trial to date (Freie Universität Berlin, 2019), trained young men taking ecdysterone for 10 weeks gained significantly more muscle mass and significantly more one-rep-max bench-press strength than placebo, with no change in markers of liver or kidney stress. The result was strong enough for the authors to recommend WADA review the compound.
Why athletes have used ecdysterone for decades:
- Increase protein synthesis
- Increase lean muscle mass
- Increase strength
- Increase power
- Improve recovery between sessions
- Support endurance and performance
- Achieve an anabolic response without hormones
- Support libido, sleep quality and cognitive function (exploratory research)
2. Testofen® Fenugreek 50% dry extract (トリゴネラ・ホエナム・グラエカム L., seed)
150 mg → 75 mg Fenuside™ saponins
Fenugreek seed contains more than 100 phytochemicals, including furostanol and steroidal saponins. テストフェン (Gencor Pacific) is a patented extract standardised to 50% of a proprietary saponin-glycoside matrix called Fenuside™ – the specific fraction that has been tested in human clinical trials. Generic fenugreek powder does not carry this standardisation or this evidence.
What it does: Testofen® supports the body’s own production of free testosterone, supports libido and sexual function, and supports muscle mass and body composition during resistance training. Unlike synthetic approaches, it works with your hormonal axis – maintaining testosterone that is already within the normal range.
Human study 1 – free testosterone and performance (resistance-trained men): in a double-blind, randomised, placebo-controlled trial of 60 healthy men, Testofen® taken during an 8-week resistance-training programme produced, versus placebo:
- a significant increase in free testosterone (p<0.05)
- significant anabolic activity shown by reduced blood urea nitrogen (p<0.05)
- a significant effect on serum creatinine (p<0.02), consistent with better creatine uptake and recycling in muscle
- a significant decrease in body fat from baseline, while muscle size was maintained
- a prolactin change (p<0.04) that remained within normal physiological limits
Human study 2 – testosterone and sexual function in healthy ageing men: in a 12-week double-blind, randomised, placebo-controlled trial of 120 healthy men aged 43–70, Testofen® significantly increased both free and total testosterone and significantly improved sexual function – arousal, desire and activity – compared with placebo.
Human study 3 – libido: in a 6-week double-blind, placebo-controlled trial of 60 healthy men, Testofen® significantly improved libido scores and sexual function versus placebo.
Fenugreek and the endurance athlete – glycogen resynthesis: fenugreek seed extract also has well-documented insulin-mimetic and glucose-disposal properties. In a study of trained cyclists, adding fenugreek extract to a post-exercise glucose feeding produced 63% greater muscle glycogen resynthesis at 4 hours than the same glucose alone. For endurance athletes this means Ecdy-Bol’s fenugreek supports:
- Glucose disposal
- Glycogen resynthesis
- Carbohydrate loading efficiency
- Amino-acid transport into muscle
- Exercise recovery
- Insulin-mimetic action
3. Zinc gluconate
150 mg → 19.54 mg elemental zinc (195% NRV)
Zinc is the mineral most directly tied to male hormonal health – and the one hard-training athletes lose most through sweat. Ecdy-Bol provides a full 19.54 mg of elemental zinc per day as well-absorbed zinc gluconate – 195% of the Nutrient Reference Value – because a natural testosterone booster that ignores zinc status is only doing half the job.
What it does – EU-authorised health claims for zinc:
- Contributes to the maintenance of normal testosterone levels in the blood
- Contributes to normal fertility and reproduction
- Contributes to normal protein synthesis
- Contributes to the maintenance of normal bones
- Contributes to normal function of the immune system
- Contributes to the protection of cells from oxidative stress
- Contributes to normal cognitive function
- Contributes to normal carbohydrate and fatty-acid metabolism
The research: zinc restriction in healthy young men significantly lowered serum testosterone in 20 weeks, while zinc supplementation in marginally deficient older men nearly doubled it. In elite wrestlers, 4 weeks of zinc supplementation prevented the fall in testosterone that exhaustive training otherwise produced. Three mechanisms, one capsule: ecdysterone for the muscle cell, Testofen® for free testosterone, zinc for the hormonal foundation.

Clean, certified, athlete-safe
Ecdy-Bol is manufactured in a pharmaceutical-standard facility certified to ISO 9001 by Bureau Veritas. It contains no prohormones, no SARMs, no synthetic hormones and no stimulants. Ecdysterone is listed on the WADA Monitoring Program – substances WADA observes but does not prohibit – and fenugreek and zinc are unrestricted. Like every SCN™ product it is formulated to be 100% natural and 100% doping-free. Competing athletes remain responsible for checking their federation’s current rules.
Frequently asked questions
Is Ecdy-Bol a steroid?
No. Ecdysterone is a plant-derived phytoecdysteroid. It is structurally different from anabolic-androgenic steroids, does not bind the androgen receptor, is not a hormone in humans and is legal to buy and use. Its anabolic effect on muscle cells runs through a different pathway (ERβ) and comes without the androgenic side effects of synthetic steroids.
Is a natural testosterone booster safe for drug-tested athletes?
Ecdy-Bol contains nothing on the WADA Prohibited List. Ecdysterone has been on WADA’s Monitoring Program since 2020 – WADA tracks its use but has not banned it. Testofen® fenugreek and zinc are unrestricted. Always confirm your own federation’s current list before competition.
How is Ecdy-Bol different from other ecdysterone supplements?
Dose and source. Most products use spinach or Cyanotis vaga extracts and deliver a few milligrams of ecdysterone per tablet. Ecdy-Bol delivers 135 mg of ecdysterones per day from a 20:1 Rhaponticum carthamoides root extract standardised to 90% – and pairs it with patented Testofen® and 195% NRV zinc, so you get both the anabolic signal and hormonal support in one product.
How long before I notice results?
The clinical trials on both ecdysterone and Testofen® ran for 8–12 weeks. Many athletes report better training quality and recovery within the first 2–3 weeks; strength, lean mass and body-composition changes build over 2–3 months of consistent use alongside structured training and adequate protein.
Do I need to cycle Ecdy-Bol?
Ecdy-Bol does not suppress your own hormone production, so no post-cycle protocol is needed. Many SCN™ athletes run it through a full training block (8–12 weeks), then take a 2–4 week break before the next block.
Can women use Ecdy-Bol?
Ecdysterone itself is not androgenic and has been used by female athletes. However, Testofen® has been studied in men for testosterone support, so this formula is designed and positioned for men. Women looking for hormonal balance should see マカ30:1コンプリート・シナジー.
What stacks well with Ecdy-Bol?
For strength: CREndurance Active¹³. For lean mass: Complete x4 そして intrAMINO X12. For complete hormonal support: Hormone Activator²⁹. For recovery: Pro Endurance Recovery.
Stronger. Leaner. Still 100% natural.
