BASIS Natural Anabolic Muscle Builder 120 Veg Caps – Science-Backed Lean Muscle & Strength Formula BASIS is a revolutionary natural anabolic recomposition catalyst designed to build lean muscle, increase strength, enhance fat loss, and improve recovery through multiple science-backed pathways—including the cutting-edge Bone Morphogenetic Protein (BMP) system. Get the results you deserve from Evolution Supplements. CEL BASIS: Convenient Daily Support in Vegetarian Capsules The Next Generation of Natural Anabolic Supplementation Building muscle and losing fat simultaneously demands more than basic protein and training. BASIS takes a completely different approach to muscle building by targeting the Bone Morphogenetic Protein (BMP) system—a set of powerful growth factors that influence muscle development, fat metabolism, bone health, and recovery at the cellular level. With 12 active ingredients including 7 premium branded compounds, BASIS delivers multi-pathway muscle-building support that addresses anabolism, anti-catabolism, immune health, bone strength, and senescent cell clearance. This is muscle building infrastructure engineered from the ground up. Why Your Foundation Matters Think of muscle-building like constructing a building. A building's durability depends entirely on its foundation. Similarly, your physique's potential is limited by your body's foundational systems—bone density, muscle cell health, hormone signaling, and metabolic capacity. Many muscle-building supplements ignore this reality, focusing only on protein synthesis or basic anabolism. BASIS is different. It builds a solid infrastructure by supporting: Optimal bone health and strength Healthy, functioning muscle cells Efficient nutrient signaling pathways Cellular energy production (ATP) Natural hormone optimization Senescent cell clearance (removing "zombie" cells that slow performance) This foundational approach means better long-term results, improved recovery, enhanced performance, and genuine body recomposition. What Makes BASIS Revolutionary: Bone Morphogenetic Proteins (BMPs) Understanding BMPs – The Growth Factors That Matter Bone Morphogenetic Proteins (BMPs) are a group of signaling molecules originally discovered for their role in bone formation and healing. However, cutting-edge research has revealed something far more exciting: BMPs play a crucial role in muscle growth, fat loss, recovery, and overall body composition. Think of BMPs as cellular "messengers" that tell your body how to: Build and maintain bone tissue Stimulate muscle cell formation and repair Control how your body stores and burns fat Support tissue recovery after training and injury Regulate muscle protein turnover and growth While BMPs are involved in many bodily processes, their impact on muscle building and fat loss makes them one of the most exciting targets for natural anabolic supplementation. Key BMPs for Muscle Growth & Fat Loss BMP-2: A potent growth factor that stimulates bone formation and, critically, promotes muscle growth while inhibiting muscle wasting. Higher BMP-2 signaling = better muscle-building potential. BMP-4: Regulates muscle satellite cells (the stem cells responsible for muscle repair and growth) and has been shown to downregulate myostatin—a protein that limits muscle growth. BMP-7: Perhaps the most exciting BMP for physique athletes. BMP-7 promotes significant muscle hypertrophy, protects against muscle atrophy, supports recovery from muscle injury, prevents fibrosis (scar tissue that impedes function), and increases fat oxidation and calorie burning. Maximizing these three BMPs through targeted supplementation creates an entirely new avenue for muscle growth and fat loss that most athletes never tap into. The Multi-Pathway Approach to Muscle Building Anabolic Pathways – Maximizing Muscle Growth Anabolism is the metabolic process where your body builds and repairs muscle tissue. BASIS contains multiple natural anabolic ingredients that keep your body in an anabolic state (focused on building muscle) as much as possible throughout the day. Anti-Catabolic Pathways – Preventing Muscle Breakdown Catabolism is muscle breakdown—the enemy of gains. During intense training, calorie deficits, or recovery periods, your body breaks down muscle tissue for energy. BASIS includes multiple anti-catabolic ingredients that minimize this breakdown, helping you retain hard-earned muscle even during cutting phases. Immune System Support – The Hidden Muscle-Builder Most people overlook the immune system's role in muscle growth. Here's the reality: all your hard work building muscle can disappear within days if you catch an illness. Additionally, emerging research shows the immune system plays a direct role in muscle growth, exercise recovery, injury prevention, and age-related muscle loss. BASIS includes immune-supporting ingredients to keep you healthy and training hard year-round. Bone Health – The Foundation of Strength Strong bones are essential for: Maximizing strength gains in the gym Injury prevention (especially for ligaments and joints) Long-term athletic longevity Supporting muscle growth (bone and muscle are intimately connected) The exciting part? Research from the past decade shows that the same growth factors supporting bone health (BMPs) also have major implications for muscle building. Investing in bone health is investing in muscle-building potential. Senescent Cell Clearance – Remove the Clutter Senescent cells are "zombie cells"—cells that have stopped dividing and functioning but remain alive in your body, taking up space and releasing harmful substances. As senescent cells accumulate, tissue performance declines. Think of it like a computer full of old files slowing it down, or a phone with too many background apps draining the battery. Senescent cell clearance is like defragging your system—removing the clutter so healthy, new cells can thrive. Younger, newer muscle cells have higher mitochondria counts, produce more ATP (energy), and recover faster. BASIS includes Senactiv®, the first senolytic sportsceutical shown in human studies to elevate exercise endurance, recovery, and energy while supporting senescent cell clearance and new muscle cell generation. BASIS Ingredient Breakdown – Science-Backed Muscle Building Icariin (from Horny Goat Weed) – 500mg HG20X™ (100mg Icariin) Icariin is the active constituent of Horny Goat Weed that targets multiple muscle-building pathways. BMP Support: Icariin increases BMP-2, BMP-4, and BMP-7 expression through multiple signaling pathways including PPARγ, ERα/AKT/β-catenin, and MAPK. Natural PDE5 Inhibition: Acts similarly to pharmaceutical PDE5 inhibitors by supporting improved blood flow, enhanced nutrient delivery to muscle tissue, better muscle pumps, improved vascularity, and increased muscle fullness. Nitric Oxide Enhancement: Stimulates endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) to increase nitric oxide (NO) production, supporting vasodilation, blood flow, nutrient delivery, and recovery. Natural Testosterone Support: Supports increased natural testosterone levels and libido. Fat Loss Potential: Research shows icariin can promote brown fat development and increase energy expenditure, supporting fat loss efforts. Hwanggeumchal Sorghum Extract – 500mg A premium ingredient that enhances BMP-7 and Growth Hormone (GH) signaling through the Jak2/STAT5B pathway—a critical pathway in growth hormone signaling. When GH signaling is activated, it triggers the Jak2/STAT pathway, which regulates IGF-1 (insulin-like growth factor-1)—a major player in muscle and bone growth. Hwanggeumchal sorghum extract mimics growth hormone's effects on this pathway, increasing GH receptor expression, IGF-1, the IGF-1 receptor, and critically, BMP-7 levels. This creates an optimal muscle-building environment without relying on exogenous hormones. Naringin – 250mg A natural citrus bioflavonoid with multi-pathway benefits.
