  1. DHEA
    Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) is a naturally occurring hormone found in the body. DHEA is produced in the adrenal gland, gonads, and brain. DHEA is a steroid hormone. DHEA and its metabolite dehydroepiandrosterone-3-sulfate or DHEAS are the major steroidal products of the adrenal gland. It is important to know that levels of DHEA and DHEAS in the body decreases progressively from a peak at age 25 to less than 20 of that peak before the age of 70. Further, DHEA serum levels are typically low in chronic diseases such as cancer and AIDS.

  2. Fiber
    Health Benefits of Fiber

    Diarrhea - Some types of soluble fiber soak up water in the digestive tract and can be used to relieve mild diarrhea.
    Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) - Many medical professionals believe that soluble fiber helps regulate stool frequency and consistency in people with IBS.
    Constipation - Studies have shown that fiber can in fact relieve constipation, especially wheat bran and psyllium.
    Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) - Studies of individuals suffering from ulcerative colitis (a type of Inflammatory Bowel Disease) found that psyllium seeds were as effective as the prescription drug mesalamine in reducing the recurrence of the disease.
    Hemorrhoids - Soluble fiber help soften stool and reduce the pain associated with hemorrhoids.
    High Cholesterol - Soluble fiber promotes lower cholesterol levels in the body when included with a low-cholesterol diet. Psyllium is considered to be one of the primary soluble fibers used to lower levels of LDL, the bad cholesterol.
    Diabetes - Studies suggest that diets high in fiber can help to lower insulin and blood sugar levels, improve cholesterol and triglyceride levels, and help prevent type II diabetes.
    High Blood Pressure - It has been suggested that taking 12 grams of soluble fiber a day may help lower blood pressure.
    Heart Disease - Ingesting high levels of fiber (whether through diet or supplementation) may drastically reduce the risk of heart disease.
    Cancer - While studies are still inconclusive many medical professionas still assert that fiber may help protect against many types of cancer including colon, prostate, breast and uterine cancer.

  3. HMB
    Beta- hydroxy - beta - methylbutyrate, also known as HMB, is a substance naturally found in living organisms as a metabolite of the essential amino acid L-leucine. It has been reported, based on preliminary findings, that HMB may possess anticatabolic and immunomodulatory properties. HMB is a popular nutritional supplement among athletes involved in intense physical activity.

  4. Hydroxycitric Acid (HCA)
    Garcinia cambogia is most commonly recognized for its ability to help individuals lose weight due to various effects it may have on the body. This fruit is believed to help people lose weight in the following ways:

    • It has been suggested that the HCA in Garcinia cambogies inhibits the body's ability to store fat, possibly causing more fat from foods to pass through the body without being stored.

    • Garcinia cambogia may cause the body to use existing body fat for energy during prolonged exercise. Ordinarily, carbohydrates are used first during exercise

    • In a few animal studies the hydroxycitric acid (HCA) produced by Garcina cambogia appeared to reduce appetite by raising the amount of serotonin in the body. (Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that is thought to affect appetite control).

  5. L-Tyrosine
    Tyrosine is believed to be effective when used in connection with a variety of disorders including Parkinson's disease, depression, and other mood disorders due to its role as a precursor to a number of neurotransmitters in the brain that are responsible for transmitting vital nerve impulses. The results of a few preliminary studies indicate a possibly beneficial effect of tyrosine, along with other amino acids, in people suffering from dementia and Alzheimer's disease. Tyrosine is a mild antioxidant, reacting with free radicals that can cause damage to cells. It is also thought that tyrosine promotes sexual drive. Tyrosine may also be used as a mild appetite suppressant.

  6. Pyruvate
    It is believed that pyruvate may aid weight loss efforts. One study showed that 22-44 grams per day of pyruvate enhanced weight loss and resulted in a greater reduction of body fat in overweight adults when combined with a low-fat diet. Similar studies that employed 6-10 grams of pyruvate per day combined with an exercise program also lost weight. A few clinical studies suggest that pyruvate supplementation leads to weight loss by increasing the resting metabolic rate. However, pyruvate's effectiveness as weightloss supplement has not been substantiated.

  7. Soy Protein
    In October of 1999, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) gave permission for companies to market soy protein supplements stating in their advertisements and on product packaging that soy protein may reduce the risk of heart disease. This is only the 11th time the FDA has allowed or endorsed a statement of this magnitude relating to a dietary supplement. The actual health claim endorsed by the FDA states: Diets low in saturated fat and cholesterol that includes 25 grams of soy protein a day may reduce the risk of heart disease. In order to use this claim, soy protein manufactured must ensure their products contain at least 6.25 grams of soy protein and must not be high in saturated fat, cholesterol, or sodium.
