Arginine is a non essential amino acid that is naturally occurring. While considered non-essential, it is used by the human body in a number of ways. Overall, it helps improve the immune system by stimulating the thymus gland, boosting white blood cell production and stimulating the release of growth hormone. Arginine helps with wound healing by helping with cell division and is an important part of the urea cycle, helping remove ammonia from the body. Arginine also helps the body with production of nitric oxide which can help reduce mild high blood pressure and help enhance athletic performance.

Arginine Ethyl Ester is a combined molecule of the essential amino acid, arginine, bonded together with an ethyl ester. It plays an important part in the building block of protein. It is a precursor for the nitric oxide synthesis. It stimulates the production of hormones in the body, particularly growth hormones that is important in the development and growth of muscles. It aids in reducing adipose tissue in the body fat and also help form leaner muscles. Arginine Ethyl Ester promotes healing of injuries. it also has antioxidant effect that helps keep the skin younger looking and prevents premature aging. It decrease blood pressure and reduces the risk of cardiovascular problems.

Caffeine is a stimulant drug used for mental alertness and to accelerate energy and power. It is also used to delay muscle fatigue as it goes deep into the muscle tissues.

Creatine Monohydrate is an organic acid that is naturally found in humans. First discovered in 1832, the primary function of creatine monohydrate is to help in supplying energy to the muscles. About half of the stored creatine monohydrate in the body comes from food sources, mostly meat. Vegetarians tend to show lower levels of creatine monohydrate since vegetables don’t contain this acid. However since meat tends to contain high levels of saturated fat which is not good for the heart, one way in which creatine monohydrate can be made available is through supplements. In fact many body builders take creatine supplements to help in increasing muscle mass. Creatine monohydrate has also been shown to cause slight increase in strength in those with neuromuscular disorders and is now being considered as a therapy for several diseases like Parkinson’s, Huntington’s etc. especially because it is considered safe and so far has exhibited no side effects.

GABA or gamma-aminobutyric acid happens to be an inhibitory neurotransmitter in the brain that is crucial for our well being since it helps induce relaxation and sleep. As such, it performs the role of a balancer for the brain by balancing excitation of the brain with inhibition. There is more to GABA than its balancing effects. GABA has a major impact on muscle building and fat prevention due to its effect on HGH levels. GABA stimulates the anterior pituitary thereby increasing Human Growth Hormone (HGH) levels. HGH has anabolic and lipotropic properties and GABA thus indirectly causes these two positive effects in the body. However, people taking GABA supplementation may experience certain side effects that may range from tingling sensations around the face and neck area to mild change in breathing patterns or heart rate. Thankfully, these side effects are not harmful and subside quickly.

Ginseng Extract is an extract taken from the slow growing perennial plants with the fleshy roots. These plants are found mostly in China, Korea and eastern Siberia. China, Japan and Korea have been using this extract for centuries to cure various kinds of illnesses.

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-Arginine AKG is a salt of amino acid arginine and alpha-ketoglutaric acid, and is widely used as a body building supplement. Its components assist in the metabolism of nitric oxides. Arginine and alpha-ketoglutarate are forerunners of polyamines and nitric oxide, which take part in a number of metabolic functions. Its supplements enhance growth hormone and insulin secretion with anabolic effects in postoperative patients. Their intermediary metabolites, glutamine and proline, can also help promote recovery from trauma. In animal studies, it increased the levels of glutamine and arginine in skeletal muscles and stimulated the immune system function as compared to animals which did not receive it. It can also improve host-defense mechanisms, especially during injury and acute stress.

L-Leucine is not prepared in the body but can be obtained through food items like brown rice, whole wheat bread and nuts or dietary supplements. It provides power and endurance. It ensures the well being of the lean muscle tissue, maintains the body’s nitrogen balance and supplies energy especially during exercise. It also assists the healing process and preserves and builds muscles. It is ideal for sportspersons. L-Leucine is also known to increase the secretion of Human Growth Hormone resulting in healthy joints, the reduction of body fat and slowing down of the aging process. It is also useful to people with Diabetes and kidney and liver problems. In the case of a deficiency, the body will not be able to use any proteins efficiently.

Ligustrazine is the effective component of the Chinese herb Chuanxiong. Ligustrazine has a chemical name of tetramethylpyrazine (TMP). It protects the nerves in the central nervous system and the peripheral nerves. It also protects the cells from free radical damages. It also has potent antioxidant property. It is also used to treat renal problems or failure and dialysis. It also improves the blood flow particularly in the heart and the brain. It keeps the brain healthy and prevents Alzheimer disease. It also helps in maintaining blood pressure level. It also help in the treatment of lung diseases, and protects the body against pulmonary fibrosis. It also aids in treating headaches and vertigo.

N-Acetyl-L-Tyrosine relates to the supplementation of tyrosine. The N-Acetyl-L-tyrosine is converted into L-tyrosine. N-Acetyl-L-tyrosine is useful in treating depression and mood problems. This is also of immense use in treating blood pressure, skin and hair color as well as Parkinson’s disease. N-Acetyl-L-tyrosine gets converted into the body and is soluble in water. N-Acetyl-L-tyrosine serves as one of the significant supplement to increase the tyrosine levels present in the body because the substances that stay undissolved are un-absorbed by the digestive tract. This contains B-6 vitamin and this is a must for the synthesis for neurotransmitter. N-Acetyl-L-tyrosine is prohibited by the FDA regulations to be appropriate for medical treatment. N-Acetyl-L-tyrosine, in the recent research has come to conclude that it is effective for medical conditions. Even mild stress causes neurotransmitter deficiency and this ends up in sullen moods or depression. However, N-Acetyl-L-tyrosine is useful in restoring skin pigment and also is effective in hair darkening.

Niacin is a vitamin that wards against pellagra, a disease characterized by a vitamin B3 deficiency. Niacin is made from pyridine and is often called vitamin B3 or nicotinamide, because they all three have similar formulas. Niacin and nicotinamide are comparable in make up, but only niacin works to lower cholesterol levels. The restoration of DNA is also known to be a positive side effect of taking niacin. A fairly large number of individuals, particularly those in third world countries or those suffering from alcoholism, have been shown to be lacking in niacin. Niacin is often taken as a supplement by those with high cholesterol levels, as it has been proven to lower “bad” cholesterol and raise “good” cholesterol.

Taurine is an organic acid which is one of the primary ingredients of bile, found in the lower intestine as well as in small amounts in the tissues. Taurine is an important element as it is required for fat digestion through the emulsification of dietary fats. It is also needed for the absorption of fat-soluble vitamins as well as the control of cholesterol serum levels. Taurine is also needed for the proper use of sodium, calcium and potassium in the body. Cell membrane integrity is also maintained with the help of taurine. Apart from these, research has shown that taurine can be very helpful in managing anxiety, hyperactivity, reduced brain functioning etc. Studies have also revealed that along with zinc, taurine is essential for proper vision. In case of a taurine deficiency there is vision impairment along with problems with fat metabolism, however since the body can synthesize the minimum amount of taurine required, this is a rarity.

Vitamin C- The essential nutrient L-ascorbic acid, or rather Vitamin C, is necessary for a wide plethora of metabolic reactions in almost all living beings. In humans, Vitamin C is vital in the collagen synthesis. While most beings are able to make it internally, apes and humans cannot.
