Calcium, is a supple gray alkaline earth metal, which is the fifth most abundant element by mass in the Earth's crust. Calcium is also at the fifth most profuse dissolved ion in seawater by both molarities and mass. Calcium is a significant nutrient that we require in our bodies. It has many imperative functions. It helps getting strong teeth and bones and is involved in muscle contractions and blood clotting, The calcium is mainly stored in our teeth and bones. Low calcium level may lead to the bone fractures and in some cases porous bones or osteoporosis, generally in old age. The intake of calcium can drop down the high blood pressure, maintain your heart functions, avert gum disease, prevent colon and rectum cancer, and help blood to clot.

Citrulline Malate is a mixture of the organic salt malate and amino acid citrulline. The inimitable combination provides athletes a potential way to perk up performance, postpone muscle fatigue, and speed up recovery. Citrulline Malate is helpful for everyone taking part in high-intensity workouts, along with cyclists, strength athletes, bodybuilders and some runners. Citrulline helps in the confiscation of endotoxins like ammonia and lactic acid, which can weaken exercise performance. These endotoxins are generated due to extreme physical activity, catabolic states and protein metabolism.

Di-Calcium Phosphate is a calcium supplement. Taking di-calcium phosphate can prevent osteorporosis. Although calcium is found in all dairy products like cottage cheese, cheese and yoghurt, milk etc. it is not sufficient to sustain the bones throughout our life beacuse calcium is essential for other things too; like for regulating blood pressure, skeletal maintainance, stimulation of hormone secretion and for controlling the heart beat. Calcium needs to be replenished continously as it gets flushed out from our body due to perspiration and toilet use. Di-calcium phosphate is available in the form of chewable tablets, tablets and in liquid form as well. It is also available in combination with minerals and vitamins. On an average an adult requires 1000 mg to 1200 mg of calcium everyday.

Glucuronolactone is also used as a detoxicant but is actually a natural chemical produced by glucose metabolism in the human liver.

Glycerol Monostearate also referred to as GMS. It is that fat that is formed when glycerol is esterified with stearic acid. It occurs in the body naturally as a by-product of fats and it can also be found in certain fatty foods. Glycerol Monostearate increases the endurance by retaining water in the body. They glycerol helps lower the body temperature and delay fatigue while increasing the performance. It also helps in reducing the acidity that forms in the muscle. It also improves the absorption of other supplements by helping in the delivery the nutrients in the system. It is also ideal, in losing weight because it enhances the metabolism.

L-Isoleucine- The second of three branched chain amino acids it is important in blood sugar regulation and producing hemoglobin. After exercise, it is responsible for muscle recovery and important in the metabolism to produce energy.

L-Leucine- Leucine is an essential amino acid that does not synthesize in humans and so must be ingested. It slows the degradation of muscle tissue and is used in the formation of sterols.

L-Tyrosine is a non essential amino acid occurring in the body. L-Tyrosine may be created from the synthesis of phenylalanine which is also an amino acid. It is one of the building blocks of proteins in the body. It is also a precursor for several neurotransmitters such as L-dopa, dopamine, epinephrine and norepinephrine. It helps treat and prevent illness such as Parkinson’s disease, Alzheimer’s disease, depression and other such mood disorders. It also helps protect the body from free radical damages. It also helps protect the skin from UV rays damages on the skin by aiding in the production of melanin. It also helps in increasing the metabolic rate that speeds up muscle building and fat loss. It also increases the endurance.

L-Valine, an essential amino acid, promotes the smooth functioning of the body. It is derived from animal and vegetable proteins like seafood, poultry, meat, cottage cheese, sesame seeds, dry whole lentils and roasted peanuts. It regulates the immune system, assists protein synthesis and glucose metabolism. It also promotes growth of muscles and repair of tissues that get damaged due to stress, disease, surgery or injury. It maintains the body’s nitrogen level and energizes the muscles. L-Valine helps detoxify the body against ammonia and prevents muscle wasting in diabetics. It assists in correcting drug addiction related amino acid deficiencies, gallbladder and liver diseases and is linked with treating neurological conditions and brain damage due to alcohol intake. One should consult a physician before consuming the supplement.

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.

Magnesium Chloride is a chemical compound extracted from natural mineral bischofite. Its chemical formula in salt form is MgCl2 and in hydrated form is MgCl2 (H2O) x. The hydrates of Magnesium chloride are produced from brine or sea water. Magnesium chloride is used as a precursor to other magnesium compounds on a substantial scale. It is used in supplements to fulfill the deficiency of magnesium because it’s less laxative then magnesium sulfate, and more bioavailable than other magnesium compounds. Magnesium chloride has antiseptic properties and research is also being done on its effectiveness against tumors when used as a feed additive.

Maltodextrins are polysaccharides used as food additives. Their general formula is C6nH(10n+2)O(5n+1). Their Mol.mass is variable according to length of glucose chain. Maltodextrins are classified by DE (dextrose equivalent) between 3 and 20 (the longer the glucose chain, lower the DE number). 5 DE Maltodextrin is a low DE Maltodextrin. It is commonly derived from starch enzymaticlly. It has viscosity and it gives texture, body and moisture control in foods. 5 DE Maltodextrin has a slightly sweet taste which is much less sweeter than sucrose. This property is attributable to the fact that it has higher amounts of glucose bound in chains rather than being free. When consumed by athletes, it provides time release glucose to the blood and provides energy over a long time.

Palatinose is also known as Isomaltulose. It is a low glycemic and low insulinemic carbohydrate that is chemically derived from sucrose. It is absorbed in the small intestine as disaccharides of glucose and fructose. Palatinose gives a prolonged supply of energy. It works by allowing the glucose enter the blood at a very slow rate that prevents the sudden changes in the glucose and insulin levels. This also helps maintain a balanced blood sugar level. It also inhibits the formation of caries in the teeth because unlike ordinary sugars such as sucrose, maltose and glucose; they are not transformed into acidic substance that causes the formation of plaque on the surface of teeth.

Phosphate (Phosphorus) is a chemical element that is found in the periodic table with the atomic number fifteen. As a high reactive element, it is not found in clean form as a free element in nature. It is one of the most important and essential elements in the human body, being found in phospholipids that form all the membranes of cells, the DNA, the RNA and also the ATP. Cellular energy is being transported by phosphate in form of adenosine triphosphate, calcium phosphate, which are salts, are responsible for the stiffness of bones. In the average human, the amount of phosphorus in weight would be about one kilogram, whereby most of it is in form of apatite and found in teeth and bones. The daily consumption of phosphorus through dietary means is estimated at about one to three grams.

Sodium Chloride

Vitamin B12, or rather the Vitamin B complex, is a group of vitamins that are all soluble in water and very often coexist in food sources. While every single Vitamin from the B complex group has a name, they are very often referred to by the number added to the Vitamin B group name, like Vitamin B1, which is thiamine, or Vitamin B2, which is riboflavin. Some other compounds have been added to the Vitamin B group at some time, but were later dropped, like adenine, orotic acid or adenosine monophosphate, where later research found that they are either synthesized by the human body or simply no Vitamins. Vitamin B complex supports the metabolism rate, maintains muscle tone and skin, raises functions of the nervous system and the immune system, promotes red blood cells and cell growth and division and much more.

Vitamin B3, commonly called Niacin, exists in two main forms, niacin and niacinamide. The niacin form produces a flushing and itching of the skin when taken at higher dosages and this feeling is only temporary.

Vitamin B6 is one of the most important vitamins that play an essential role in the development and keeping the immune system healthy. Vitamin B6 is water soluble that contains pyridoxal, pyridoxine, and pyridoxamine. It is needed by the body in various functions such as red blood cell metabolism and conversion of the amino acid tryptophan to the vitamin niacin. It is also important in ensuring the efficient function of the nervous and immune systems. It helps manufacture proteins and neurotransmitters, haemoglobin, and prostaglandins. It also helps balance the hormones. Vitamin B6 is known to help give relief to women suffering from menopausal symptoms, and premenstrual syndromes. It also helps reduce the incidence of breast cancer.

Vitamin B9 or Folic Acid, is essential as it assists the formation of red blood cells in the body and genetic material within every cell. It helps in metabolism of proteins and prevention of anemia and is vital for cell growth and division. Folic acid is an important nutrient for pregnant women to prevent congenital malformation in the fetus. It reduces the risk of brain and spinal cord defects, heart defects, limb defects, urinary tract abnormalities and cleft palate in the fetus. It is highly beneficial if taken prior to and during the first month after conception. In men, folic acid reduces chromosomal defects in the sperm. Spinach, lettuce, peas, beans, sunflower seeds, asparagus, baker’s yeast, fortified cereal products and liver are rich in folic acid.

Vitamin C is an obvious essential nutrient and a deficiency of this will cause scurvy. It is also an antioxidant and acts as an electron donor for eight different enzymes.

Waxy Maize Starch (WMS) is a complex, long-chain, high molecular weight (much higher then dextrose and maltodextrin) carbohydrate. It is sugar and lactose free. It contains Amylopectin (95-99%) and a low percentage of Amylose (1-5%). WMS is taken as a supplement by athletes because it’s claimed that it restores glycogen levels faster than dextrose. It is taken post workout as an insulin-boosting carbohydrate source with a fast acting whey isolate or whey hydrolysate. Since WMS has a high molecular weight, it is digested and absorbed very rapidly, which in turn reduces the risk of stomach discomfort.
