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.

They keep the skin healthier by stabilising the membranes of lysosomes that you find in human skin and also repairs those skin cells which are damaged. It resists the impact of the ages which damages the healthier skin by blocking the activity of lipofucsin. There are of course some side effects caused by these supplements as well and hence it must be consumed with the advice of some physicians.

Further antioxidant and antibacterial effects have been noted as well. In combination with linoleic acid, guarana has shown fat cell reduction effects in mice.

L-Tyrosine is a proteinogenic polar amino acid, deemed not essential because it can be synthesized by the human body. As a member of the amino acid group that is being used by cells to build proteins, this building block derived its name from the Greek word tyros, which means cheese, because it was discovered in the cheese protein casein. L-Tyrosine can be synthesized from phenylalanine and can be found in foods high on protein, like soy products, poultry, cheese, bananas, dairy products and several seeds, including the sesame seeds. The unique phenol functionality and the occurrence in proteins that belong to the signal transduction process, make this amino acid different. Tyrosine can be converted by tyrosine hydroxylase enzyme into levodopa, a psychoactive drug that is used, among other uses, for clinical treatment of Parkinson’s disease. It is also involved in the synthesis of dopamine, norepinephrine and epinephrine.

Magnesium is another mineral which is deemed essential for all biological life. As an essential part of basic nucleic acid, magnesium ions, together with phosphate ions, are also required for over 300 catalytic reactions of enzymes. Any enzymes synthesizing or utilizing adenosine triphosphate require a magnesium ion. Incredulously enough, magnesium deficiency is the most widespread deficiency, affecting a third of the population in the United States only, with third world countries surpassing the count easily. Being also essential, together with calcium and phosphorus, in the skeletal structure, magnesium deficiency is viewed as a main factor in ailments such as osteoporosis. Naturally available through cereals, green leafy vegetables, nuts, spices, tea, cocoa and coffee, magnesium is available as a supplement in magnesium oxide and magnesium citrate form, whereby the latter is viewed as more bioavailable.

Pantothenic Acid is also called vitamin B5 (a B vitamin). Its chemical formula is C9H17NO5 and Mol. Mass is 219.23 g mol-1 . It is a water soluble type of Vitamin B and an essential nutrient for life. Pantothenic acid is critical in the metabolism and synthesis of carbohydrates, proteins, and fats. It is used in some hair and skin care products .Pantothenic acid supplements are used to fulfill vitamin deficiency. Research also shows that these supplements reduce the duration of morning stiffness, degree of disability, and pain severity in rheumatoid arthritis patients.

Phenylethlamine HCL is a salt of phenylethylamine. It is a crystalline solid and is formed by treating phenylethylamine with HCl. Its IUPAC name is 2 phenylethylamine HCl. The scientific name elucidates its chemical structure. It is an aromatic compound meaning that it has a basic benzene ring. It further has a two carbon chain attached at position 2 of the ring and the chain terminates in an amino group. It occurs naturally in some foods like chocolates but the food item might get metabolized too quickly sometimes for it to have a significant effect on the body. This substance has quite profound effects on the level of dopamine in the central nervous system, provided it passes the blood brain barrier. It increases dopamine level and at the same time inhibits dopamine transmitters resulting in a buildup of dopamine in the brain. While excessive levels of dopamine in the CNS are not healthy, the neurotransmitter does regulate cognition, mood, voluntary movement and other brain functions.

Theobromine, which is a mild diuretic and mild stimulant. Theobromine can be found in cocoa and chocolate products. Theobromine is most commonly used for its diuretic effect.
