Adrenosterone aka 4-Androstene-3,11,17-trione is new to the market but not new to the steroid gurus out there. Essentially, at moderate doses it is an effectual cortisol reducer with some very mild anabolic properties and HPTA suppression. It does this by preventing the 11beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type1 reductase to act on cortisone to form cortisol.

Adrenosterone

At low doses this is great, but at high doses I feel greatly reducing corticosteroids is foolish. As always, balance is key and throwing the tipping the scale too far one way will have negative consequences. I haven’t seen any reports of side effects of megadosing adrenosterone yet but I would guess some of the symptoms would be lowered immune response, attentuation of important inflammation responces, and electrolyte imbalances. I’m sure some of the characteristics would be similiar to the symptoms to Addison’s disease.

In a moderate dose seems to be the real beauty of this compound. Cortisol control is one aspect of fatloss or even bulking few bodybuilders realize can maxmize the actualization of their physique goals. Few realize that stress hormones greatly influence fat accumulation or make it more difficult to lose.

Another good cortisol reducer is 7-Keto-DHEA and it has no anabolic properties as it cannot be converted to any sex hormones. I usually recommend this just because of supporting research available and even natural athletes can use this without any HPTA suppression.
