Beta-AET ECPE is used to promote fat loss and lean mass retention. It is typically used as an ingredient in fat-loss products. Beta-AET ECPE inhibits the 11b-HSD-1 enzyme both locally and systemically. This translates to less conversion of cortisone to cortisol in muscle when training and everywhere else because of stress, such as dieting. Beta-AET ECPE also increases immune function and helps in the recovery of cells. It is known to have a stimulatory affect on the thyroid gland to support natural thyroid hormone production. To sum it up, your appetite is usually suppressed, you have less cortisol, a higher metabolic rate, less fat, and more lean muscle.

Bladderwrack refers to brown algae that are found on the northern Atlantic and the pacific coasts of United States. The bladderwrack stem is known as thallus and can be employed medicinally. The bladders are air filled pods and hence this algae floats. The bladderwrack is also called kelp. Bladderwrack thallus is useful in soothing inflamed and irritated tissues. This is also used historically as a laxative. It is also observed that people residing adjacent to seas or oceans have low rate of hypothyroidism owing to iodine rich food and seaweeds such as bladderwrack. Bladderwrack is also useful in countering obesity as it stimulated the thyroid gland. Seaweeds such as bladderwrack assist in losing weight. Three active constituents are alginic acid, iodine and fucoidan. Bladderwrack is safe and has potential problems in consuming such as thyroid dysfunction, heavy metal contamination and acne. As bladderwrack is another type of seaweed it has excessive iodine and consuming excessive iodine results in health problems.

Clary Sage Powder, also known as Salvia sclarea, is basically a biennial herb. It is a herb native throughout Europe and central and east Asia. Though, it was historically found in France, Switzerland, Italy and Syria. It reaches a height of one meter at the time of maturity. It has wooly texture leaves. The flowers on this herb appear in clusters on its stem and are often of the color pink, white or pale purple. Salvia sclarea is known to have an odor that appeals to some while at the same time are very unpleasant for the others. Majority of the salvia sclarea cultivation is done for the perfume industry in England, France and southern Russia. A lot specialty stores and scent shops sell the distilled essential oil obtained from salvia sclarea.

Diprop or diiodothyronine (T2) is a thyroid hormone analogue used to supplement the thyroxine level of the body. Chemically it is 3, 3’-Diiodothyronine. When administered it acts to produce the same effects that the thyroid hormone confers with minimum retardation of the natural thyroid hormone cycle controlled by the thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH). It is better than both thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3) because these inhibit the natural TSH release. Its effects include increase of the basal metabolic rate of the body which results in an accelerated fat loss. It also contributes to carbohydrate, vitamin and protein metabolism. It also potentiates brain development contributing to intelligence.

Olive Leaf Extract, which contains the phytochemical oleuropein. Oleuropein breaks down to elenolic acid, which has an anti-bacterial effect and may interfere with the critical amino acid production that is essential for viruses.

Piperine, an extract that comes from the fruit of the black pepper plant “Piper Nigrum” and “Piper Longum,” sets the stage for the activities in the body that lead to digestion and intestinal absportion by increasing the metabolic process. It is a pungent substance that has been used in Ayurvedic medicine for treatment of various diseases and is commercially available. Piperine forms monochenic needles, is slightly soluble in water and even more so in alcohol, ether, or chloroform. It significantly enhances the body’s ability to absorb nutrients into the blood stream, and supports the body’s natural thermogenic activities. It inhibits human CYP3A4 and P-glycoprotein, which are enzymes that are important for transport of xenobiotics and metabolites. Piperin has been found to stimulate skin pigmentation when exposed to UVB light. Caution should be used by those on other medications if taking this extract because of piperin’s effects on drug metabolism.

Triprop is a thyroid analog of T-3 analogous to Triac in some positive aspects. It is a naturally occurring element. As per the animal studies, Triprop has a higher resemblance for the thyroid hormone receptor-beta 1 commonly known as TR beta 1 than does T-3 by 1.8-fold. Trorop is used in the treatment of Hypothyroidism. It is a syndrome that results due to the unusually low secretion of thyroid hormones from the thyroid gland, which leads to a decrease in basal metabolic rate.

Tyrosine is a non essential amino acid derived from several sources, including soy, poultry, milk and cheese products, but can also be synthesized in the body from phenylalanine. There are twenty amino acids that are used in human cells to synthesize proteins, one of which is tyrosine. It is of vital importance to the carbon dioxide conversion into organic compounds conducted by plants, the photosynthesis. Tyrosine is also recognized as a precursor to hormones, but also alkaloids and pigments. It is furthermore viewed as a precursor to neurotransmitters; it increases the levels of plasma neurotransmitters, most prominently norepinephrine and dopamine. While under normal circumstances the effects of tyrosine are inconclusive, it has been observed as useful in stress situations and to reduce the effects of a cold, fatigue, sleep deprivation and any kind of prolonged labor.
