Betaine was named this due to the source it was discovered in, Beta vulgaris or sugar beets, is an organic compound that is deemed related to trimethylaminoethanol, or choline. To diversify it from other betaines, trimethylglycine is often called glycine betaine as well. Humans generally ingest betaine through their diet, because it is high in content in wheat, whole wheat, shellfish, sugar beets and spinach. It can also be formed in the human body out of choline. As a potential methyl donor, trimethylglycine, or TMG for short, is in the same provider group with Vitamin B12, the folic acid, choline and S-adenosyl methionine, or SAMe. TMG also plays a vital function in the production of carnitine, furthermore it works in protecting kidneys and the liver.

Caffeine is the most widely available legal psychoactive stimulant drug. Also known as theine, methyltheobromine and trimethylxanthine, this xanthine alkaloid is not only found in coffee beans, but also in guaranine that is derived from guarana, mateine derived from mate, theine which is found in various teas and the kola nut, which is the base flavor of various Cola soft drinks. It stimulates the central nervous system, where it restores alertness and wards off drowsiness. Caffeine is also know to display certain diuretic properties, is an ergogenic, an atagonist of the adenosine receptors, and a cAMP levels increasing factor. It seems that caffeine helps prevent the onset of Parkinson’s disease and in the long run lowers the possibility of developing a heart disease.

Cinnamon is a common spice that helps millions of people. This is of great assistance to type II diabetes sufferers that causes in middle-age and kills many people. The type II diabetes is caused when the cells start losing their ability towards responding to insulin and the hormone in the body demands excess glucose and incase glucose gets build up weight-loss, tiredness and blurred vision are few symptoms. This also leads to heart disease and blindness in extreme cases. Cinnamon extract is found to be useful in rekindling the ability of diabetics such that it can respond to insulin and this is because it has a substance called MHCP. Cinnamon extract is a natural way of regulating the levels of blood sugar. It is relatively inexpensive and is the commonly consumed spices. Moreover, MHCP present in the cinnamon extract as well as other active compounds do not exist in the spice oil and are active compounds. The type II diabetes is due to overweight and lack of exercise, however, cinnamon extract is very responsive to insulin and can prevent many patients.

Citrulline Malate is a compound containing Citrulline, a non-essential amino acid which is mainly found in malate, and watermelons. It helps athletes in overcoming muscle fatigue and enhancing performance in sports. It expedites and improves recovery of muscles and energy after intense exercise. Malate is an apple derivative and improves the good effects of citrulline. It participates in aerobic cellular respiration where oxygen and a carbon compound are utilized to give immediate energy. It also helps recycle lactate and pyruvate to enhance efficient energy. Citrulline Malate has numerous positive impacts on exercise performance by increasing the stamina, providing resistance against fatigue, and enhancing recovery and energy levels. It also betters endurance.

Creatine-Fumarate

Creatine-Succinate

Histidine is an amino acid that is essential especially in infants. The adult body produces this amino acid naturally and thus it becomes a non-essential acid. However in the case of infants this is not true. This vitamin is extremely important and children may not have sufficient Histidine. The Histidine is an originator of the Histamine which is a compound that is release by the human immune system when an allergic reaction takes place. This is also essential for the repair and growth of new tissues and helps to maintain myelin sheaths (the protectors of the nerve cells). Histidine is also needed for the production of the red and white blood cells.

L-Arginine-Fumarate is a combination of fumaric acid and arginine. It improves the metabolism of energy, that helps provide more strength and vigor. Fumarate by itself acts as an intermediate in the Krebs cycle. It helps in the transportation of fatty acids into the cell mitochondrion that generates the production of ATP. It also helps in losing weight by burning the body fats for use of energy. This also helps in burning the fats in place of lean muscles. It helps regulate the blood sugar level and blood pressure level. It helps in maintaining cardiovascular health; aiding in treating and maintaining a heart problems. L-Arginine-Fumarate does not cause any gastrointestinal problems when ingested because it is easily absorbed by the intestine.

L-Arginine-Succinate is an essential protein amino acid, which is required for normal function and healing of the body. It is particularly vital for young children and older people because it stimulates production of growth hormone. In normal conditions the body produces enough L-arginine for normal body function, but different injuries or conditions can limit the production of L-arginine in the body. It has been found to be essential for producing urea that assists in removing toxic ammonia from the body. It is also vital for producing creatine that is used by bodybuilders or athletes to enhance strength and body mass. It is also particularly helpful in healing process from sepsis, trauma, and burns. Studies also indicate its usefulness in treatment of cardiovascular disease by decreasing blood pressure and lowering the LDL (bad) cholesterol levels.

L-Glutamine- Glutamine is an amino acid which is responsible for a multitude of biochemical functions in humans. L-Glutamine is generally found in dietary sources such as chicken, beef, eggs, milk and dairy products, fish, spinach, wheat, parsley, cabbages, beans and beets. Glutamine is apparently the most common amino acid occurring naturally, furthermore this non essential amino acid is one of just a few, which are able to directly cross the blood brain barrier. In the human body, L-Glutamine is found in the skeletal muscles, but also in the blood. Besides the vital biological functions, such as fuel for brain, blocking cortisol induced protein catabolism, immune function assistance, protein synthesis and in DNA synthesis, L-Glutamine is used as a supplement for ailing and injured, improving recovery, but also as muscle growth agent in body building and athletic circles.

L-Taurine , which contains cysteine and methoinine is an essential amino acid. It acts as a diuretic by maintaining the level of magnesium and potassium in our cells while purging sodium. It improves the functioning of kidney and gets rid of fluid accumulation and swelling and thus keeps our body away from toxicity. It maintains a good balance of calcium in our body and strenghtens the heart muscles too. L-Taurine is also used in the treatment of progressive eye conditions, hypertension, memory loss, cystic fibrosis and in atherosclerosis. It is often mixed in energy drinks because while working out the level of L-taurine drops in the skeletan muscle, L-taurine supplements lowers the level of exhaustion and improves endurance. Besides being found in meat and egg yolks it is abundantly found in shellfish.

L-Tyrosine is a common amino acid and a para-isomer of tyrosine. It is deemed organic because of the carbon atom present and it is nonessential to survival, but works as a building block of protein. It is also viewed as a precursor of dopamine, which has several effects, like offsetting fatigue, mental and physical, as well as increasing the impression of well being. When the amino acid phenylalanine is broken down, L-Tyrosine can be won completely naturally. Besides being a precursor of the aforementioned neurotransmitter dopamine, L-Tyrosine is also deemed a precursor to some adrenal hormones, namely epinephrine and norepinephrine. In body building circles this supplement is popular to offset fatigue after a hard training or competition, but also to raise mental alertness while working out.

Monosodium Phosphate is used as a laxative and in combination with other sodium phosphates, as a pH buffer. Like sodium phosphate, monosodium phosphate is also used to build strong teeth and/or restore tooth enamel.

Niacinamide, also known as Nicotinamide is water-soluble and usually found in Vitamin B3. It is normally seen in different dietary supplements as well as energy medications. One good thing about the Niacinamide is that compared to other water soluble vitamins, it does not contain any harmful effects such as flushing or even skin irritations. Niacinamide also has an anti-inflammatory property, because of this, Niacinamide is also being used to cure acne and other kinds of skin diseases. It can either be taken orally, or some kinds of medications include this in their formula as a topical cream or even as a topical gel.

Picamilon , also known as nicotinoyl-GABAm Pycamilon, Pikamilon, is formed by combining niacin with GABA. It is basically a dietary supplement. All-Union Scientific Research Institute of the Soviet Union developed this dietary supplement in 1969. It was further studied in Japan and Russia as a prodrug of GABA. In the United States, picamilon is sold as a dietary supplement whereas in Russia, the same drug picamilon is sold as a prescription drug. Picamilon hydrolyzes into GABA and niacin by crossing the blood brain barrier. In theory, the released GABA receptors would activate and potentially produce an anxiolytic response. It also releases a second component known as niacin. Niacin then acts as a strong vasodilator. This niacin then comes in use for the treatment of migraine heaaches.

Sodium is part of the extracellular fluid of many multicellular creatures, not least mankind. It is needed for instance in nerve conduction and to balance the acid levels in the body. It is necessary for the functioning of organs such as the liver, intestine and kidneys in their work of ridding the body of toxins However there is an optimum intake. Above this there are problems such as a rise in the blood pressure. Also an excess of salt in the diet will draw fluid out of the cells by the process of osmosis. On the other hand a lack of sodium will lead to too much water in the body the brains cells will actually be flooded.

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 B6contains pyridoxal phosphate, or PLP for short, as the active ingredient and is a vitamin belonging to the B complex grouping. It is functioning mainly as a co-enzyme with others in the human body, aiding in the proper function of several metabolic processes. Neurotransmitter synthesis, as well as hemoglobin and histamine synthesis are just some of the functions of PLP, hemoglobin function, gene expression and aiding in the facilitation of decarboxylation, elimination and other reactions, mainly taking place in the liver. Vitamin B6 was found to diminish by 50% the risk of Parkinson’s disease. Alternative medicine suggests the use of Vitamin B6 to combat autism, in combination with magnesium. This combination has shown effects with children suffering from attention deficit disorders. PLP also seems to show therapeutic effects for diabetic nephropathy.
