Garcinia cambogia (hydroxycitric acid or HCA)
HCA is a powerful natural extract from the Garcinia cambogia fruit, native to India. As a lipogenesis inhibitor, HCA stops the body from making and storing fat by inhibiting the enzyme called ATP-citrate lyase. As if that wasn't enough, HCA also turns carbohydrates (sugars and starches) into energy instead of fat. The result being your body benefits in two ways; less food is converted into fat and, dietary fat goes into the production of energy instead of pounds around your waist. HCA is also a marvelous weight loss ingredient in that it curbs appetite, reduces food intake, and cuts the production of bad cholesterol and harmful triglycerides.
Coleus Forskohlii (Makandi)
Coleus forskohlii has been used in traditional Indian medicine for 2,000 years to combat and prevent conditions such as aging, high blood pressure, angina, strokes and heart attack. More recently studies have shown that this highly unique and potent Ayurvedic herb also stimulates lipolysis (the breakdown of stored fat) and prevents the formation of fat in fat cells. But that's not all, studies also show that Coleus counteracts the declining response of fat cells to thermogenic (fat burning) agents. In clear and simple language, Coleus forskohlii is extremely beneficial to both young and old alike seeking an easy way to lose weight.
Other Benefits of Coleus forskohlii
Coleus forskohlii has also been shown to be beneficial for Hypothyroidism (thyroid hormone production); Malabsorption and Digestive disorders (production of digestive enzymes and increased nutrient absorption in the small intestine); Depression (antidepressant activity); Cancer metastases (anti-tumor activity and inhibitor of cancer); Immune system enhancement (activation of macrophages and lymphocytes).
Alpha Lipoic Acid (ALA)
Alpha Lipoic Acid (ALA) causes the body to lose weight by directing glucose away from fat cells to muscle cells where it can be used to provide energy. Alpha Lipoic Acid normalizes and stablizes blood sugar levels, prevents glycation which causes most diabetic complications and, reduces blood glucose by up to 20%. It also recycles vitamin E and C to make them last longer. It is strongly antiviral, prevents kidney stone formation, protects the liver from toxins and removes heavy toxic metals from the body.
Niacin (Vitamin B3)
Niacin makes it possible for the body to transform fats, carbohydrates and protein into energy. Niacin also helps ensure the health and vitality of the digestive tract, skin and nerves. Niacin is so important, the federal government requires food processors to restore the niacin lost in the milling of wheat flour and cornmeal before selling them to the public. More recently, it was discovered that Niacin not only lowers bad cholesterol and triglycerides, it also works with Chromium to accelerate the rate of weight loss while raising the level of good cholesterol in the blood.
Magnesium Chelate
Magnesium is needed for over 300 enzymatic processes in the body, especially those involved in energy production. Low levels of Magnesium are associated with heart disease, high blood pressure, kidney stones, cancer, insomnia, PMS, and menstrual cramps. Signs of Magnesium deficiency include fatigue, mental confusion, irritability, weakness, heart disturbances, problems in nerve conduction and muscle contraction, muscle cramps, insomnia and predisposition to stress.
Carnitine (Tartrate)
Called "the life-extension amino acid," Carnitine is essential for the burning of fat (conversion of fat into energy). It transports fatty acids across cell membranes to be burned for fuel in the mitochondria (cellular furnace or power plant). The presence of Carnitine causes the mitochondria to burn calories and give the body energy. It is like the engineer on a steam locomotive who shovels coal into the boiler. The harder he shovels the more coal (fat) the furnace will burn and the faster the train will go. Robert Crayhon considers Carnitine to be the body's premier energizer. Other benefits include protective effects against diabetes, chronic fatigue syndrome, high cholesterol, congestive heart failure, angina, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and infertility.
Eleutherococcus Senticosus (Siberian Ginseng)
As an adaptogen, Eleutherococcus Senticosus enables the body to adapt by overcoming stress, weakness and fatigue. In the Orient it is called the King of Herbs. It provides the body with energy and is especially stimulating for mental fatigue. It stimulates and improves brain cells. Eleutherococcus Senticosus has a very beneficial effect on the heart and circulation. It is used to normalize blood pressure, reduce cholesterol and prevent arteriosclerosis. For thousands of years, people of high position and wealth in the Orient used Eleutherococcus to keep their vitality and mental alertness undiminished and to slow the aging process. It is also said to prevent and protect against the development of cancer and diabetes.
Arctic Root (Rhodiola rosea)
In Siberia where the location of Arctic Root plants are closely held secrets among families it is said, "people who drink Rhodiola tea will live more than 100 years." The emperor of China used to organize expeditions to Siberia to gather this highly valued plant. In a controlled study of 130 overweight patients over 60 days it was found that 92% of those who consumed Arctic Root lost an average of 20 pounds compared to others on the same diet given a placebo who lost only 5 pounds. Arctic Root also prevents emotional stress, sluggishness, chest pain heart palpitations and excessive sleeping. It is also known to enhance mental clarity (memory), boost energy and improve sexual performance.
Camellia sinensis (Green tea)
The anti-aging and thermogenic (heat producing) effect that Green tea offers makes it an important ingredient for losing weight. Aside from increasing thermogenesis from 20 to 500% in dose dependent fashion green tea has also been shown to be benefical for Protecting Against Cancer (stimulates important antioxidants and detoxifying enzymes that protect against cancer formation); Heart Disease (lowers high blood pressure and cholesterol and reduces platelet aggregation (prevents blood clots); Immune Stimulation (stimulates production of white blood cells).
Gymnema sylvestre (Sugar Destroyer)
This ancient Ayurvedic vine has been a source for the treatment of diabetes dating back 2,000 years. The name literally means sugar destroyer. Recent studies have shown that Gymnema sylvestre not only decreases blood glucose levels, lowers insulin requirements, and normalizes blood lipids; it also repairs and rejuvenates the pancreas where insulin is produced. Because of its unique properties, Gymnema sylvestre may prove to be an extremely beneficial weight loss aid. It is also perfect for suppressing the appetite and cutting the craving for sugar.
Pantothenic acid
Panthothenate (Vitamin B5): essential in producing, transporting, and releasing energy from fat.
L-Tyrosine
The amino acid L-Tyrosine nutritionally supports both metabolism and thermogenesis (fat burning) activities. In addition, l-tyrosine is known to support proper mental function in general - especially mood and alertness.
