Formula Ingredient Deck	Benefits Of Each Ingredient
L-Arginine	Natural vasodilator precursor to increased nitric oxide levels (1). Supports immune function by maturation of the T cell (immune cell) receptor zeta (TCR) (2.) Improves exercise performance via increased stroke volume (blood flow) and increased nutrient delivery to exercising muscle. (3). Reduces arterial blood pressure, insulin resistance, and supports fat lipolysis (fat burning) (4).
Raspberry Ketone	A natural aromatic compound derived from raspberries enhancing fat oxidation(burning) and antioxidant protective mechanisms (20). Supports suppression of lipid accumulation (fat build up) in adipocytes (fat cells) (21). Increases total antioxidant capacity by increasing enzymes associated with decreasing reactive oxygen species (superoxide dismutase) (22). Increases natural production of master antioxidant L-Glutathione (22).
Tryptophan	Decreases anxiety, supports positive mood, supports gut brain axis, and an improved sleep cycle (259,260). Decreases anxiety via increases in 5 HTP (259, 260). Improves circadian rhythm via increased natural melatonin production (259,260). Supports gut brain axis via natural increased production of serotonin in gut neurons (260).
L-Ornithine	Supports cardiovascular health and exercise performance by increasing production of l-arginine (5). L-Ornithine supports kidney health and protein metabolism by converting ammonia (toxic by product of protein metabolism) into urea in urine (5). Reduces stress hormone (cortisol) and improves sex hormone profile via increase in DHEA (sex hormone precursor) (6). Improves perceived mood, sleep quality, and decreased subjective feelings derived from stress (5).
African Mango	Supports appetite regulation (7). Reduces leptin hormone and supports improved blood glucose levels (7). Supports reduction of total cholesterol, body fat, and plasma glucose (blood sugar) (7). Supports healthy inflammatory response by reducing c-reactive protein (inflammation levels) in the body (7).
L-Carnitine	Improves fat burning (oxidation) by shuttling triglycerides into the mitochondria for fat metabolism (8). Improves cognitive decline associated with Alzheimer’s disease by increasing l-carnitine as a fuel source for the brain (8). Improves fat burning(oxidation) in muscle tissue during exercise (8). The precursor to acetylcholine (8). Improves memory by increasing hippocampal volume associated with fatty acid oxidation (fat burning) (8).
Beta-Alanine	Improves exercise performance, increases nutrient delivery to exercising muscle, and reduces lactate associated neurological exercise fatigue (15). Reduces carnosine (muscle acidity) levels and acts as an intramuscular ph buffer (15). Reduces lactate “burn” associated fatigue during extreme exercise (15).
Macca Root	Supports female hormonal health via increased sex drive, improved post-menopausal symptoms, and improved sexual desire (13). Increases luteinizing hormone (LH) production and reduced severity of menstruation (13). Increases sperm count in males via androgenic mechanisms associated with free testosterone increase (13).
Grape Seed	Supports increased nitric oxide production, reduces blood pressure, reduces DNA damage, increases collagen production, increases bone strength, and aids as a neuroprotective agent (31). Supports antioxidant function via modulation of antioxidant enzyme expression, protection against oxidative damage, and reduced reactive oxygen species (31). Supports cardiovascular health via reduced atherosclerosis, inhibiting lipid peroxidation, and improved endothelial vascular function (31).
Grapefruit	Supports immune health via increased oxidant, free radical scavenging, and fueling neutrophilic (immune cell) activity in chemotaxis, phagocytosis, and microbial killing (97,98). Supports fat burning by increasing carnitine biosynthesis (molecule required for mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation) (97,98). Supports accelerate bone healing after a fracture, increase type I collagen synthesis, and reduce oxidative stress (inflammation) (98). Supports cardiovascular health via reduced atherosclerosis, inhibiting lipid peroxidation, and improved endothelial vascular function (31).
ECGC	Supports increased nitric oxide production, reduces blood pressure, reduces DNA damage, increases collagen production, increases bone strength, and aids as a neuroprotective agent (31). Supports antioxidant function via modulation of antioxidant enzyme expression, protection against oxidative damage, and reduced reactive oxygen species (31). Supports cardiovascular health via reduced atherosclerosis, inhibiting lipid peroxidation, and improved endothelial vascular function (31).
Ginseng	An adaptogenic herb that supports antioxidant function, cognitive function, increased muscle mass, combats inflammation, stabilizes blood pressure, enhances sexual health, and enhances endurance performance (136). Combats inflammation via inhibition of hydroxyl radical(inflammation) and lipid peroxidation (136). Supports endurance performance by enhancing mitochondrial energy output during exercise (136).
Garcinia Cambogia	May support reduced fat loss, increased metabolic rate, and increased caloric expenditure from exercise.
Capsicum	Supports immune health.
Guarana	Supports increased energy, reduced body fat, and blood sugar regulation (346). Supports reduced body fat via increased mitochondrial biogenesis (creation of new fat burning machinery), and increased activation of fat burning pathway (AMPK Activation) (346). Supports blood sugar regulation via improved insulin sensitivity and pancreatic beta cell production of insulin (346).
Eleuthero	May support increased energy and reduced stress hormones.
