Acetyl L-Carnitine is also known as ALCAR, and has been widely popularized as the superior form to L-Carnitine pertaining to the bioavailability. Carnitine is the quaternary ammonium compound which is being used to move fatty acids out of the cytosol and into the mitochondria when the fats are being broken down, when these are needed to generate additional metabolic energy. The biologically active form of Carnitine is L-Carnitine; Acetyl L-Carnitine is the acetylated form of L-Carnitine and is also known as Acetylcarnitine. L-Carnitine is generally derived from lysine and methionine, which are both amino acids. While the neuro-protecting properties of Acetyl L-Carnitine have been tested on lab animals and some proof was obtained, the role of Acetyl L-Carnitine as a weight loss agent still needs some testing in studies on humans.

Bitter Gourd Extract more commonly known as bitter melon is a vine the fruit of which is one the most bitter of vegetables. This Asian staple has been used for hundreds of years for such ailments as sluggish digestion, dyspepsia, and also constipation, although it can sometimes make ulcers and heartburn worse. It is a mild inflammation modulator and a demulcent. So it rarely has such a negative effect. It is used by both Asians and Colombians for the prevention and treatment of malaria. Studies have shown that it does have anti-malarial activity.

DHA, Docosahexaenoic acid or cervonic acid is an omega 3 essential fatty acid, a carboxylic acid commonly found in fish oils and microalgae. DHA is found in beef and eggs, but can be derived from eicosapentaenoic acid, EPA, through docosapentaenoic acid, DPA. DHA has been discovered to restrain colon carcinoma cells in humans. DHA is found in large numbers in human brain and retina, half of plasma membranes of neurons is Docosahexaenoic acid. In recent times, due to changes in farming, DHA levels in common food have been decreasing, prompting the use of DHA as a food additive. DHA as a nutritional supplement is widely viewed as vital, Docosahexaenoic acid is also very often found in nutritional supplement compounds designated for pregnant women.

EPA (Eicosapentaenoic Acid), also known as icosapentaenoic acid and EPA, is a omega 3 fatty acid, a carboxylic acid which acts as a precursor for prostaglandin 3, thromboxane 3 and leukotriene 5 groups of eicosanoids. It is mostly found in fish oil, but can also be contained in human breast milk. In recent times, sources from microalgae have been preferred, due to the large quantities of toxins contained in fish swimming in polluted waters. Human body can produce EPA out of alpha linoleic acid, but since that ALA is an essential fatty acid, only excess amounts would be converted. EPA has been subject to studies pertaining to the use in treatment of schizophrenia, but it may also lower suicidal tendencies. Further use as breast cancer progression inhibitor is under investigation.

Tetradecylthioacetic Acid(TTA) is a hypolipidemic fatty acid that is sold in supplement form and used mainly by those looking to add muscle through bodybuilding or strength training exercises. TTA can increase the body's ability to burn fat while suppressing the appetite and increasing satiety to control hunger. TTA is often used by bodybuilders in conjunction with other supplements to help reduce fat while building mass. Some consumers use TTA as a fat burner and very helpful weight loss aid. Tetradecylthioacetic Acid can be found in both supplement and powder forms and is a key component in many supplement formula sold under various brand names.

Vitamin A is needed by the retina of the eye in the form of a specific metabolite(the light-absorbing molecule retinal). This molecule is absolutely necessary for both scotopic and color vision. It also palys an important role in the health or our skin, bone metabolism, immune function. It is also commercially produced and administered as esters such as retinyl acetate commonly called Vitamin A acetate. Its defeciency can cause blindness. Other problems include impaired immunity, hypokeratosis (white lumps at hair follicles), keratosis pilaris and squamous metaplasia of the epithelium lining the upper respiratory passages and urinary bladder to a keratinized epithelium.
