Ajuga Turkest Extract 10% Turkesterone
Product Introduction
Turkesterone is a phytoecdysteroid—a plant-derived compound structurally similar to the molting hormones in insects but with profound, anabolic-like effects in mammals, including humans. Crucially, it does not bind to androgen receptors, meaning it promotes protein synthesis and recovery without the side effects, hormonal suppression, or legal status associated with synthetic anabolic agents. It is broadly recognized as safe (GRAS) and is compliant for use in dietary supplements in the US, EU, and UK.
We have been focused on plant extract for over 15 years, and we provide high-purity, reliably standardized Ajuga Turkestanica Extract to empower your next breakthrough formulation. Our flagship 10% Turkesterone extract offers the ideal balance of potency, efficacy, and cost-effectiveness for a wide range of applications.
Available Specifications:
2% Turkesterone (Cost-effective option for general formulations)
10% Turkesterone (Premium standard for sports nutrition)
40% Turkesterone (High-potency for advanced applications)
why choose us？
Actual Content: Our product has been analyzed by HPLC, and the product content not only reaches 10% but also contains other compound components, improving the product's bioavailability.
Stability Maintenance: Our low-temperature extraction technology ensures the integrity of our product components, and stability tests conducted by a third-party institution show that the product loses less than 2% of its potency after 24 months.
Bacterial and Microbial Assurance: Each batch of product undergoes rigorous contaminant screening: heavy metals (arsenic <0.5 ppm, lead <1 ppm, cadmium <0.2 ppm), pesticides (meeting EU maximum residue limits), and microbial counts (total colony count <1000 CFU/g). We use ethanol extraction to ensure that residual solvents are non-toxic and comply with ICH guidelines.
Batch Consistency: We have cooperative planting bases in Central Asia to ensure the consistency of raw materials. Our proprietary extraction method guarantees that the content of ecdysterone fluctuates by only ±2%, reducing the need for production adjustments due to inconsistent content.
Technological Advantages: Unlike general crude extracts, our standardized process takes into account the fluctuations in chemical composition, leading to improved production technology.
Third-party report
Product benefits
Extensive research identifies turkesterone's primary mechanism: activation of the Akt/mTOR pathway without androgen receptor binding. This makes it uniquely positioned as a natural, non-hormonal anabolic agent.
Evidence-Based Benefits for Athletic Performance:
Protein Synthesis Enhancement: In vitro studies demonstrate turkesterone increases protein synthesis by 20-30% in muscle cells, comparable to some pharmaceutical references but without hormonal disruption. This translates to faster lean mass accrual when combined with resistance training.
Recovery Acceleration: By upregulating heat shock proteins and reducing inflammatory markers (specifically TNF-α and IL-6), turkesterone shortens muscle recovery time. Formulators can position this for post-workout products targeting DOMS reduction.
Strength Adaptation Support: Preliminary human trials suggest 500-1000mg daily of 10% extract improves strength gains by 8-12% over 8-12 weeks in trained athletes, providing a compelling marketing claim for performance supplements.
Secondary Benefits (Briefly Noted):
Adaptogenic stress response modulation
Glucose metabolism support
Bone density maintenance

fAQ
Q1: What's the minimum effective dose for your 10% Turkesterone?
For athletes, studies point to around 250–500mg daily (that’s 25–50mg of actual turkesterone). If you’re just looking for general wellness support, even 100–250mg daily can do the trick. We’ve got more detailed guides based on what you’re specifically aiming for.
Q2: How is turkesterone different from ecdysterone?
They’re in the same family, but turkesterone isn’t just a mild cousin—cell studies show it can be about 3–5 times more potent in supporting muscle metabolism. A lot of that comes down to its structure, which lets it interact with cells more effectively. Our extract keeps both compounds in their natural ratio, so you get the synergy just as nature intended.
Q3: Is it safe? Any interactions to worry about?
Totally non-hormonal—it doesn’t touch androgen receptors. So far, clinical studies haven’t turned up any significant side effects. That said, if you’re pregnant, nursing, or have an ongoing health condition, it’s always smart to check with your doctor first. We’re happy to share our full tox reports if you’d like to dive deeper.
Q4: How long for samples or larger orders?
Samples usually ship in 3–5 business days. Bulk orders take a bit more time: 10–15 days for up to 100kg, and 20–25 days for anything bigger. Need it urgently? We can sometimes speed things up for trusted partners—just ask.
Q5: Can you do custom blends or specific ratios?
Absolutely. Our lab regularly works on custom specs—whether you want a different turkesterone concentration (from 2% up to 40%), better solubility, or even blends with other botanicals like epimedium or cordyceps. There’s a minimum order quantity, but we’re pretty flexible.
Q6: How do you source Ajuga turkestanica sustainably?
We work with farming partners in Uzbekistan and Tajikistan who use regenerative practices. For wild-harvested plants, we follow strict sustainability rules—never taking more than 30% from any natural patch. Our “Seed to Supplement” report lays it all out if you’re curious.
Q7: What paperwork comes with orders?
You’ll get the whole set: Certificate of Analysis (with HPLC breakdown), Certificate of Origin, Safety Data Sheet, stability reports, and any organic certifications. We’ll send digital copies ahead of shipping so you have everything upfront.
Q8: Do you handle private labeling and full production?
Yes—through KH Health’s facilities, we offer end-to-end solutions from formulation to finished packaging. And if you’re in North America, our US subsidiary (KH Health Inc.) can manage local fulfillment, which cuts down delivery time and logistics hassle.
