So what is Turkesterone?

Derived from the Ajuga Turkestanica plant - Its a plant Ecdysterone (Ecdysteroids are a type of steroid hormone found in insects, certain water animals, and some plants), its not a testosterone booster, A testosterone booster has ingredients that will boost you natural testosterone production, this doesn't.  This is putting in an Ecdysterone compound which is activating receptors to cause a testosterone type effect, its not boosting test, its putting in that foreign ingredient, but because its a plant Ecdysterone, the body doesn't know its an actual hormone, so it doesn't throw out any of your natural hormones and there's no hormone displacement, which is another reason why its so popular.

What is Ecdysterone?

Ecdysterone (20-hydroxyecdysone) is a naturally occurring steroid that is found in plants and insects and is part of a family of compounds known as ecdysteroids. In insects, ecdysteroids play a role in the regulation of molting and metamorphosis (in fact, their name is coined from the process of insects shedding prior to growth). Ecdysteroids also contribute to plant growth and are found in various plant species including quinoa and spinach. In addition to their known roles in insect and plant systems, research has been conducted on the effects of ecdysteroids in mammals, and this has typically shown them to have beneficial properties in mammalian species as well. Documented benefits have included anabolic, adaptogenic (stress protective), hepatoprotective, and anti-diabetic effects.
