Acacia Gum- Helps support digestion and the elimination of food.

Acetyl L-Carnitine is derived from methionine and lysine amino acids and this is primarily synthesized in the kidneys and liver. This is transported to various other tissues in the body. However, the highest concentration of Acetyl L Carnitine is found in the tissues that employs the fatty acids to be the primary dietary fuel mainly the cardiac and skeletal muscles. The supplement of Acetyl L Carnitine is very useful for the oxidation of fatty acid and helps in burning the unwanted body fat. The fatty acids are the main energy sources and the process called oxidation is the main to break and create it into energy. The fatty acids fail to penetrate the mitochondia membrane and Acetyl L Carnitine transports fatty acids through the mitochondia membrane allowing fats oxidation. Acetyl L Carnitine plays a vital role in the production of energy and supports the body functions that need high energy levels. This is available in many foods such as vegetables grains and meats. This is available in higher concentration in beef and lamb and the vegetables and white meats have least concentration.

DMAE- Deanol, which is actually the product name of dimethylaminoethanol, or DMAE, has been marketed under the Deanol brand name, usually in the supplement form Deanol Bitartrate. This organic compound is apparently connected to choline and is deemed a precursor to acetylcholine, which is a neurotransmitter in peripheral, central, autonomic and somatic nervous systems. The conclusion is that DMAE is methylated to create choline in the brain and that the liver processes it into choline is widely accepted. Limited studies conducted on human test subjects have shown that Deanol Bitartrate may boost alertness and vigilance, while improving the overall emotional state. DMAE topical applications seem to reduce the signs of aging, supplementing DMAE athletes reported shorter recovery and boosted performance. As an acetylcholine precursor, DMAE is also active in muscle contractions.

Ephedra Viridis (Stems).

Ginger Root- Ginger is a spice which originated in Asia, where it is grown primarily in India and the Southeast of Asia. Currently it is used all over the world for culinary purposes. Several other uses, besides that of a spice, have been encountered, like in Ginger Ale, ginger tea, but also ginger beer. Gingerbread is perhaps the most popular example of ginger use, but historically it has been labeled as a stimulant and a carminative. Indonesia traditionally uses herbal preparations with ginger, which is supposed to reduce fatigue and help control all kind of digestive problems. Ginger is also known to help with morning sickness and is an ingredient in motion sickness remedies. Nausea in many forms, including chemotherapy, is treated with ginger as well.

Green Tea Extract- Camellia sinensis, or more commonly the tea plant is a genus of flowering plants which is generally being used to produce tea, including green tea, oolong, black tea, white tea and pu-erh tea, also called Bolay tea. The different oxidation process makes the final difference. Tea plants can grow out into a tree, but are generally pruned to allow for easy hand picking. While camellia sinensis is being cultivated all around the globe in tropical and subtropical regions, this South and Southeast Asian native is most popular when imported from India and China. Medical uses of tea stem from the traditional Chinese medicine, where it was used as a bronchodilator and to treat angina pectoris, coronary artery disease and peripheral vascular diseases. Green tea extract is used as appetite suppressant and thermogenesis increasing agent.

Guarana is not only a dietary supplement but also an energy booster as well as it has a high concentration of caffeine.

L-Tyrosine, a non-essential amino acid that is used to build protein. It is a precursor dopamine, as well as a precursor to norepinephrine and epinephrine. The body makes L-Tyrosine from the amino acid phenylalanine. Since L-Tyrosine is a precursor of Dopamine, it may raise mental alertness, making it of great use in exercise programs.

Magnesium is the chemical element found in the periodic table with the atomic number 12. This alkaline earth metal is one of ten most common elements in the known universe and also very prominently present in the human body. It manipulates polyphosphate compounds, most prominently the DNA, RNA and the ATP. Numerous enzymes rely on magnesium ions to function properly. Most common application of magnesium in medicine may be the addition to antacids and laxatives. This metal is not found as a free element naturally on Earth, generally the metal is obtained through electrolysis of magnesium salts. The most common deficiency in the United States with staggering two thirds of the population is the magnesium deficiency. Magnesium can be obtained through vegetables, tea, cocoa, cereals, coffee, nuts and spices.

Pantothenic Acid is thought to reduce lactic acid accumulation in athletes, may improve oxygen utilization efficiency, and is believed to improve the body's ability to heal and possibly help in reducing acne

Phenylethlamine HCL

Theobromine- The bitter alkaloid found in chocolate is known as theobromine. It comes from the cacoa plant and is found in chocolate as well as chocolate free foods that are consist of theobromine. Theobromine belongs to the methylxanthine class of chemical compounds. It is found in the leaves of the tea plant, the kola or cola nut and acai berries. No bromine is present in theobromine, despite the name. The properties of theobromine are that it is souluble in water, is crystalline, is a bitter powder, is listed as white or colorless in color. It is considered a lesser homologue because it has a lesser effect to caffeine. Theobromine is the kind of isomer which belongs to paraxanthine and theophylline at the same time. It is basically a xanthine having two methyl groups.

White Willow Bark, or Salix alba, is a willow commonly found in Europe and adjacent parts of western and central Asia. The bark of the White Willow has been used for centuries against fevers and to ease pains and aches. Already Hippocrates wrote about the White Willow bark powder two thousand five hundred years ago. The active ingredient of the White Willow bark is called salicin, a relative to aspirin and chemical derivative of the salicylic acid. When ingested, salicin is converted to salicylic acid, a beta hydroxy acid. As a nutritional supplement, White Willow products are being propagated as weight loss additives, whereby the scientific community has yet to provide any corroboration to this allegation. Besides the well known anti inflammatory characteristics, any other uses have not been approved by the FDA.

Yohimbe, which when ingested, the body converts to yohimbine and assimilates it into the bloodstream. Yohimbe comes from the bark of a tree that grows primarily in Africa. Yohimbine, an alkaloid, is the primary active ingredient of yohimbe. Yohimbe is commonly used as an aphrodisiac and antioxidant. Yohimbe is also used as a vasodilator, which means that it increases blood flow to the extremities and appendages, this is one of the main reasons why it is found in many sexual aids.
