ETAS is a proprietary asparagus extract derived from the stalks of Asparagus officinalis. ETAS is clinically proven to reduce biological stress response, improve sleep quality, and support cognitive function.
Proprietary ETAS asparagus extract powder is the winner of SupplySide West’s 2022 Ingredient Idol for Brain Health.
Recognized for its impact on stress, mood, sleep and cognitive health, ETAS asparagus stalk powder is also upcycled from the white portion of asparagus stalks that would otherwise go to waste, providing manufacturers with environmental sustainability claims.

Finding the right non-GMO asparagus extract powder ingredients — especially if you’re searching for asparagus extract powder ingredients online — is not always easy, but with ETAS enzyme-treated asparagus it is.
ETAS has the unique ability to increase the production of heat shock protein 70 (HSP70).*

Health Benefits of ETAS
Regarding asparagus extract powder’s health benefits, human clinical research has shown that ETAS:
Asparagus Extract Powder Health Benefits
ETAS asparagus extract powder increases the production of HSP70, an intracellular protein expressed naturally by the body in response to a stressor, such as extreme heat.*[6]
HSP70 repairs damaged cells, improves the ratio of excitatory cytokines to inhibitory ones, and operates as an antioxidant.*[7],[8],,[9] Notably, the body’s heat shock response to stressors decreases with age.[10],[11] Fortunately, clinical research has demonstrated that ETAS markedly increases the expression of HSP70 at a dose of 100 mg elemental ETAS asparagus extract powder per day.*[12] The commercially available form of ETAS powder is 50% elemental ETAS, requiring a dosage of 200 mg per day.
Innovative Asparagus Extract Which Induces HSP
The first and only HSP-inducing dietary ingredient in the world. Several active components are identified in ETAS for the HSP-inducing effect.
Several active components are identified in ETAS for Heat Shock Protein 70 (HSP70) induction, and ETAS asparagus stalk powder is standardized with the component group “Asparaprolines” asparagus-derived proline-containing 3-alkyldiketopiperazines”.
The extraction process used to create ETAS asparagus extract powder results in unique hydroxymethyl furfural derivatives — particularly asfural — that are not contained in raw asparagus extract powder online.
The first and only HSP-inducing dietary ingredient in the world. Several active components are identified in ETAS for the HSP-inducing effect.
• All proteins need to be folded to work correctly
• HSP helps such protein folding as “chaperone” by stabilizing new proteins to ensure correct folding, or by helping to refold proteins that were damaged by the cell stress.
• HSP is found in virtually all living organisms, from bacteria to humans.

Asparaprolines; a standard component group of ETAS
ETAS is a natural ingredient derived from asparagus, which has been safely consumed as part of the food chain for at least 5,000 years. A 90-day study found no significant adverse events and confirmed the ingredient’s safety.[13]
