Beta Phenylethylamine HCL, which is also known as PEA, is a supplement, which favors aggression and is supposed to raise mental alertness, focus, and ability to concentrate. It is believed to also promote energy. In clinical trials it has been observed that infusion of Beta-Phenylethylamine raises the extracellular dopamine count, furthermore inhibiting the dopamine transmitter DA neuron firings. An additional activity is seen through the Beta-Phenylethylamine modulation of noradrenergic transmissions. It is viewed as a stimulant, but the lack or disturbed amounts of PEA have been observed in people with attention deficit and the hyperactivity disorders, people suffering from depression, schizophrenia, migraine and phenylketonuria. The obvious antidepressant qualities are paired with the increased wakefulness, which may lead to difficulty falling asleep, but improve motivation when exercising or training.

Beta-Phenylethylamine Malate or ß-PEA Malate is known to enhance the mood and the alertness. It also boosts the effects of catecholamines that is responsible for the fight or flight hormones produced by the adrenal glands. ß-PEA Malate is also effective in breaking down fats and uses it for energy. ß-PEA Malate increases the production of dopamine. It works as a stimulant and gives energy for an extended period of time. Beta-Phenylethylamine Malate improves the motivation when exercising and training. It is also an effective treatment for people suffering from depression, schizophrenia, migraine and phenylketonuria. It also helps in the treatment of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).

Dandelion is the most common weed flowering plant found worldwide. The two most common species are Taraxacum officinale and Taraxacum erythrospermum, also known as the dandelion flower and the dandelion parachute ball. A flower head of such a dandelion flower is structured out of hundreds of smaller florets. These biennial or perennial herbaceous plants are native to Europe, the Northern Hemisphere. It has been found out that the flowers of dandelion contain a strong antioxidant, luteolin, which is a flavonoid with diverse properties, such as inflammation inhibitor, immune system modulator and a carbohydrate metabolism promoter. Chinese medicine has used this plant for centuries for medicinal purposes, usually in form of a tea concoction, applied as a liver detoxifying method. Other uses were listed as inflammation reduction and as a diuretic.

Diiodothyroacetic Acid is a direct naturally occurring metabolite of Triac. It is an active component of many dietary supplements for weight loss. Research shows that Diiodothyroacetic acid and its isomers can retain the calorigenic and antilipidemic effects of thyroid analogues. Diiodothyroacetic acid has been found to have very strong effects in lowering "bad" LDL cholesterol and reducing blood lipid peroxidation. it has been identified that Diiodothyroacetic acid suppresses TSH levels, leading to hypothyreodism. It is also claimed to increase body’s Resting Metabolic Rate (RMR, the rate at which your body burns calories at rest).

DL-Phenylalanine is a a-amino acid. The biological functions of D-amino acids remain unclear although some, such as DL-phenylalanine shows some pharmacological activity. It is sold as a nutritional supplement because of its analgesic and antidepressant activities. This analgesic activity can be explained by the possible blockage by D-phenylalanine of enkephalin and degradation by the enzyme carboxypeptidase A , and the mechanism of antidepressant activity may be accounted for by the precursor role of L-phenylalanine in the synthesis of the neurotransmitters, norepinephrine and dopamine. High levels of norepinephrine and dopamine are believed to have an anti-depressant effect.

DL-Phenylalanine works with body’s natural ability to ease pain. It assists in increasing the lifespan of brain chemicals that relieves pain. It is particularly effective in reducing pain caused by arthritis and aching muscles. DL-phenylalanine can treat persistent pain by stimulating nerve pathways in the brain responsible for controlling pain. Its effect increases if used with prescribed pain killers. DL-Phenylalanine, which is a combination of essential amino acid L-phenylalanine and D-phenylalanine, blocks an enzyme in the nervous system that enhances pain signals. This disturbance of pain signals causes the body’s healing mechanisms to start working faster. Use of DL-phenylalanine is also reported to have helped people in improving their mood and in treating depression. This is because a higher proportion of production of brain chemicals dopamine and norepinephrine, if went out of balance, cause depression, stress and frustration. Increasing the levels of these chemicals has an anti-depressant impact in the body.

Folate belongs to the B complex group, which is vital for metabolic processes in the body. It decreases levels of amino acid homocysteine in the body, ensuring protection against heart ailments. It also reduces the risk of neural tube and other birth defects like cleft lip and palate, and various congenital heart defects. It provides protection against different forms of cancer and heart disease. It is beneficial in treatment of megaloblastic anemia. It also works as a coenzyme in transfer of formyl and hydroxymethyl groups in various biological systems, and in carbon metabolism. It assists the body in getting rid of homocysteine, a blood toxin affecting heart muscle and making cholesterol deposit in heart muscle. It also prevents stroke and heart attack.

Goldenrod Herb is a flowering plant in genus goldenrod of the family Asteraceae. They have slender stems, usually hairless and grow to a length between 60 cm and 1.5 m. Goldenrods are mostly short-day plants and grow in late summer and early fall. It is commonly used as a decorative plant. It is also used in the manufacture of rubber in industry.

Green Tea Extract- Camellia sinensis, or more commonly the tea plant is a genus of flowering plants which is generally being used to produce tea, including green tea, oolong, black tea, white tea and pu-erh tea, also called Bolay tea. The different oxidation process makes the final difference. Tea plants can grow out into a tree, but are generally pruned to allow for easy hand picking. While camellia sinensis is being cultivated all around the globe in tropical and subtropical regions, this South and Southeast Asian native is most popular when imported from India and China. Medical uses of tea stem from the traditional Chinese medicine, where it was used as a bronchodilator and to treat angina pectoris, coronary artery disease and peripheral vascular diseases. Green tea extract is used as appetite suppressant and thermogenesis increasing agent.

Hordenine HCL- Hordenine is a naturally available compound, found in grassy plants and many grains as well as some hallucinogenic cacti. As a natural compound, Hordenine is becoming increasingly popular as an effective weight loss supplement. Even though the research surrounding hordenine and weight loss is minimal, it has been hypothesised that hordenine functions in part by stimulating norepinephrine. Thus hordenine can be considered a central nervous system stimulant. While hordenine can be a part of weight loss supplements in its pure form, recently, the variation of hordenine HCL is being preferred by scientists and companies specialising in creating weight loss products. This is because while hordenine HCL doesn’t differ in application and stability from hordenine, it is more water soluble. This makes applicability easier. Also hordenine HCL is more easily absorbed by the body.

Juniper Berry is an age old remedy for urinary tract infections. Further clinical study has proved it to be beneficial in the treatment of diabetes, which is otherwise dependent on insulin.

Juniper berry extracts are presently used to reduce water retention and help in weight loss. External use of the juniper berry eases muscular and joint pains. Since the Juniper Berry has a tendency to stimulate nephrons in the kidneys, people with kidney problems should avoid its use.

Methylxanthines (Caffeine) is a naturally occurring stimulant. Active ingredients of cocoa, coffee, cola and tea - caffeine, theobromine and theophylline fall under this group. It relaxes bronchial muscles, dilates the constricted airways, relieves congestion and stimulates diuresis. They get properly absorbed and evenly distributed in the body. Methylxanthine is mostly prescribed for people suffering from chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) having serious breathing problems persistently, despite of using inhaled anticholinergic and inhaled beta2-agonist. However it is not given top priority while treating COPD because it is known to cause side-effects. Headache, stomach upset, insomnia, heartburn, rapid breathing and rapid heart rate are some of the side effects experienced by people who have taken methylxanthine. Nevertheless, these side effects can be reduced by staying away from caffeine.
