Chromium
is an essential trace mineral that aids in glucose metabolism, regulation
of insulin levels, and maintenance of healthy blood levels of cholesterol
and other lipids. Chromium forms part of a compound in the body known
as glucose tolerance factor (GTF), which is involved in regulating the
actions of insulin in maintaining blood sugar levels and, possibly, in
helping to control appetite.
· Lowers blood sugar
· Increases insulin sensitivity
· Reduces body fat
· Controls hunger / suppresses appetite
· Reduces cholesterol and triglyceride levels
· Increases lean body mass / muscle mass

Mahuang,
and its various herbal cousins, functions as a sympathomimetic, meaning
that it mimics some of the effects of the bodys own sympathetic
(stimulant) hormones such as epinephrine (adrenaline) and norepinephrine
(either by increasing the levels of these hormones or by reducing their
breakdown). Mahuang is a non-selective sympathomimetic, which
means that it acts as a general stimulant on many parts of the body simultaneously
(lungs, heart, blood vessels, adrenal glands, etc.). It is most often
used as a central nervous system stimulant (for alertness or energy),
as a decongestant (for asthma/breathing aid) and as an appetite suppressant
in a wide variety of weight loss and thermogenic type products.
Increased alertness
Speeds up metabolism
Aids weight loss
Enhanced athletic performance
Mental sharpness

Paullinia sorbilis
comes from the seeds of a South American shrub, most of which originates
in Brazil. Traditional uses of paullinia sorbilis by natives of the Amazonian
rain forest include crushed seeds added to foods and beverages to increase
alertness and reduce fatigue
· Increases energy levels / Reduces fatigue
· Enhances physical and mental performance
· Promotes weight loss
· Suppresses appetite
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Lotus Leaf
helps to suppress appetite and promote lipolysis (the process of breaking
down fat into free fatty acids and glycerol). Lipolysis must take place
before fat can be burned.
· Suppresses appetite
· Enhances immune system
· Promotes weight loss
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hoodia Gordonii,
is the botanical name for a cactus like plant that grows in Southern Africa.
The chemical constituents in Hoodia, P57, work within the satiety center
by releasing a chemical compound similar to glucose, but are up to 100,000
times more powerful. The hypothalamus receives this signal as an indication
that enough food has been consumed and this in turn stunts the appetite.
· Enhances physical and mental performance
· Promotes weight loss
· Suppresses appetite
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Garcinia Cambogia
is a natural form of Hydroxcitric acid (HCA) which can inhibit an enzyme
in cells, citrate lyase, which is needed for the conversion of carbohydrates
into fat. In the cell, carbohydrates are broken down into citrate compounds,
which are then converted (by citrate lyase) into another compound; acetyl
coenzyme A (acetyl CoA) the metabolic building block for fat synthesis.
Garcinia can inhibit fat production and suppress appetite.
· Promotes weight loss
· Suppresses appetite
· Reduces blood lipids
· Increases fat oxidation/mobilization
· Promotes glycogen synthesis
· Increases energy levels
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
White willow bark
is a source of salicin and other salicylates compounds which are
similar in structure to aspirin (acetyl salicylic acid). Native Americans
are thought to have used ground willow bark and bark steeped for tea as
a medicinal remedy for everything from pain relief to fevers. White willow
is thought to extend or increase the activity of several thermogenic ingredients
in elevating energy expenditure and promoting fat metabolism.
· Pain reliever (headaches, arthritis, minor injuries)
· Fever reducer
· Anti-inflammatory
· Herbalean Enhances weight
loss (only in combination with other ingredients)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Citrus bigardia
in traditional Chinese medicine is used to help stimulate the Qi (energy
force). Through its stimulation of specific adrenergic receptors (beta-3,
but not beta-1, beta-2 or alpha-1), citrus bigardiai is theorized to stimulate
fat metabolism (which stimulates all beta-adrenergic receptors).
· Increases metabolic rate
· Increases caloric expenditure
· Fat burner
· Promotes weight loss
· Increases energy levels
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Konjac
has the ability to absorb up to 200 times its weight in water. It can
bind with a variety of substances in the digestive tract to slow digestion,
relieve constipation and reduce the absorption of fat and carbohydrates.
As such, Konjac is often used in products intended to reduce blood cholesterol
and triglyceride levels as well as blood sugar.
· Lowers cholesterol and triglyceride levels
· Reduces fat absorption
· Promotes blood sugar control
· Promotes feeling of fullness (satiety)
· Promotes weight loss
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Bearberry
leaves contain compounds that have antibacterial and diuretic properties.
These compounds are absorbed via the gastrointestinal tract, transported
to the kidneys via the blood and excreted from the body via the urine.
If the urine is alkaline (pH 8) these compounds are active, antibacterial
agents. It is theorized that these compounds also act as mild diuretics
and result in an increase in urine output.
· Urinary antiseptic (antibacterial effect in the urine)
· Diuretic (increases urine output)
· Treatment of cystitis (Inflammation of the bladder, typically
following a urinary tract infection)
· Treatment of pyelonephrititis (inflammation of the kidney)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Eleutherococcus senticosus
is termed an adaptogen. An adaptogen is defined as a therapeutic and restorative
tonic generally considered to produce a balancing effect on
the body. In general, an adaptogen can be thought of as a substance that
helps the body to deal with stress. Its action in the body is due to its
stimulation of the hypothalamic-pituitary axis to secrete adrenal corticotropic
hormone (ACTH). ACTH has the ability to bind directly to brain cells and
can affect a variety of behaviors in the body. These behaviors might include
motivation, vitality, performance and arousal.
· Relieves stress
· Enhances athletic performance
· Tonic for well-being
· Immune enhancer
· Stimulant
· Hypoglycemic (reduces blood sugar)
· Improves cognitive function
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Bee Pollen
is used as a natural "energy food" probably due to the
combination of small amounts of various vitamins and minerals involved
in energy metabolism.
· Increased energy
· Prolonged endurance
· Promotes weight loss
· Immune system stimulation
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Green tea
contains catechins, which are known to possess potent antioxidant activity,
they may provide beneficial health effects by protecting the body from
the damaging effects of oxidative damage from free radicals. The powerful
antioxidant activity about 25-100 times more potent than vitamins C and
E. A number of chronic disease states have been associated with free radical
induced oxidative damage, including cancer, heart disease, suppressed
immune function and accelerated aging.
· Anti-atherogenic / Reduces cholesterol & triglycerides
· Reduces blood clotting
· Enhances immune function
· Enhances weight loss
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Piper Longum
is often recommended as a "thermogenic" compound for increasing
metabolic rate an effect that may be related to its ability to
dilate blood vessels and cause a local sensation of "warming."
It has also been used for stimulating circulation, aiding digestion, and
relieving pain.
· Digestive aid (stimulates gastric secretions)
· Arthritis pain reliever
· Raises metabolic rate
· Reduces allergic symptoms
· Prevents migraine headaches
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Pyruvate
is a "salt" form of pyruvic acid - a 3-carbon molecule derived
from the breakdown of glucose. In the body, glucose (6 carbons) is split
into 2 pyruvic acid molecules (3 carbons each) in the end stages of cellular
glycolysis. When enough oxygen is present, pyruvic acid can be converted
into acetyl CoA in the mitochondrion of the cell to produce energy. Because
glucose (the chief sugar used by cells for energy) is broken down body
into pyruvic acid, an increased level of pyruvic acid in the body can
enhance a cells ability to generate energy.
· Enhances weight loss and reduces weight regain
· Decreases appetite
· Elevated energy levels
· Increased endurance levels
· Increases muscle glycogen
· Reduces fatigue

77 Trace Minerals
plant derived minerals play an important role in providing the essential
minerals our bodies are missing from poor eating habits and depleted foods.
Minerals initiate, regulate and control every organ and function in our
bodies. Minerals are the catalysts that support enzyme function, protein
digestion, metabolism, cellular electrolyte impulses, and billions of
chemical reactions that keeps the body functioning properly.
