A wide editorial still life on a pale sage-green seamless backdrop, shot from a slightly elevated angle in soft, diffused natural window light. On the left, a loose heap of fresh spinach leaves with deep emerald color and visible veining, a few leaves curling toward the camera with tiny droplets of water catching the light. Beside the leaves sits a minimalist amber glass supplement bottle with a plain cream label, its cap off, and a small scatter of off-white capsules spilling onto a matte ceramic plate. At the center-right of the frame, a polished steel barbell plate stands on its edge, partly in soft focus, suggesting strength training without cluttering the scene. In the foreground, a clean, slightly weathered wooden lab-style tray holds a slim stainless steel measuring tape coiled loosely and a folded paper with a faint abstract molecular line drawing, kept subtle and out of focus. A single red wax-style seal stamp lies near the edge of the arrangement, hinting at "ban" and regulation, with a small imprint half visible on the backdrop. The palette is restrained and modern: sage green, warm cream, soft amber, brushed steel gray, and one small accent of deep red. Shadows are gentle and elongated, falling to the right. Shallow depth of field, crisp focus on the spinach and capsules, a subtle film-like grain, and generous negative space on the right third of the frame for headline overlay. The overall feel is a contemporary health and science magazine cover: clean, tactile, quietly tense, and sophisticated, with no people, no text, and no futuristic elements.

시금치에서 발견된 에크디스테론, 근육 강화 효과: 46명 10주 실험, 금지 권고

시금치에서 추출한 천연 근육 강화제 에크디스테론이 세계 반도핑기구(WADA) 지원 연구에서 효과가 입증되어 금지 권고를 받았다. 46명의 젊은 남성을 대상으로 10주 동안 진행된 실험에서 에크디스테론 섭취가 근육량과 벤치프레스 1RM 증가에 현저한 영향을 주었으며, 간·신장 독성 지표는 상승하지 않았다. 작용 메커니즘은 안드로겐 수용체가 아니라 에스트로겐 수용체와의 결합을 통해 이루어진다고 제시된다. 터키스테론을 찾는 이들은 이 비교적 작은 연구가 증명한 바와 한계점을 정확히 이해하고, 특히 검사를 받는 선수는 주의해야 한다.
